Weinstein. Spacey. Louis CK. Ed Westwick. All accused of sexual harassment, assault or even rape. And now we have another name to add to the list: Mariah Carey.
No, not Victim Mimi, but Predator Mimi, because one of her former security guards has coughed up a lawsuit containing some messy allegations.
Michael Anello’s security company was employed by Mariah from June 2015 to May 2017 and, according to the lawsuit, Michael claims Mariah stiffed him on money, sexually harassed him, and said some racist things.
First the money, Michael claims that Mariah owes his company $221,329.51 in unpaid invoices; he also says Mimi promised him two more years of work worth $511,000, for a total of $732,329.51.
But the juicy bits are in the harassment claims; Michael, who is white, says Carey often referred to him and a colleague as Nazis, skinheads, and KKK members, and made it known she wanted to be surrounded by “black guys” and not white people. Michael also accuses Mariah of performing “sexual acts” with the intent they be seen by him, and that during a trip to Mexico, Mimi asked him to come to her room and move some luggage. When he arrived, Mimi’s LadyBits were on display in a see-through negligee that was open in the front. As he tried to leave, she demanded he stay and move her luggage, but he left and says there was no physical contact.
Mariah’s people say they’re working with his lawyer to pay some of the outstanding invoices, but Anello’s not happy with their offer and so maybe that’s why he coughed up the sexual harassment claims.
I don’t know about you but I’d be annoyed that she asked her security team to move her luggage; I mean, wasn’t there a bellhop or a much younger boyfriend to do the heavy lifting?
