Mariah Carey is expected to release a remixed edition of her album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel in February, following the disappointing sales of the original. The album will reportedly be available for an exclusive purchase through Target stores.

According to Rap-Up.com, her manager, Chris Lighty, tweeted the news about the album, which was originally released in September. He wrote, “Listen Memoirs remix LP February … no date set working on Target exclusive.” The Web site further reports that the album will feature collaborations with Swizz Beatz and Christopher “Tricky” Stewart, as well as Trey Songz, R. Kelly, T-Pain, Gucci Mane and OJ Da Juiceman.

“There’s gonna be remixes to everything,” Stewart recently told Rap-Up. “I’m actually doing some remixing myself currently ’cause some of these records were so much fun to make. It’s easy to go in and do a remix.”

The producer said that there’s one track he really wants to get his hands on. “I’m gonna do a remix to ‘I Want to Know What Love Is’ myself,” he said. “I’mma raise the tempo up. I’mma try to make it into something else. … Once I get the beat and if it calls for the right person, I can get anybody on the phone I want to right now, so I will be using my Rolodex for that.”

Songz also dished to the Web site about collaborating with Carey, saying that he worked with her on the song “Inseparable.” “I actually only had a day to do it. I did it on my day off. [They were] very professional, very adamant on wanting to get it done,” Songz explained. “They made sure we had all we needed. I just went in and got it done.”

It may have been an angel-themed party, but Jasmine’s fiery side was unleashed when she learned of racist treatment towards black guests at Mariah’s London soiree

So Mariah recently touched down in the UK for a promo run and she also threw a massive angel-themed party in London. On the night of the event, I was preparing to get myself dressed and ready, except I couldn’t because suddenly, my phone started blowing up with calls and texts.

There seemed to be mass confusion at the nightclub Jalouse, where many of the people on my guest list were having difficulty getting in. From the start, this party had too many cooks. There were five guest lists, an argument over the style of DJs, and a promoter that really didn’t fill me with confidence. Still, I know when not to interfere so I held my tongue. But I shouldn’t have.

It suddenly struck me that all my guests that were having difficulties getting in just happened to be black and male. I then received reports from the door that the door staff were being extremely and unnecessarily rude and even racist to many of them.

A number of my guests told me that they were snubbed at the door, and told things like, “Not tonight son, you’re not suitably attired,” etc. Well, I was spitting with fury.

After informing Mariah of this saga, she threatened not to go unless it was sorted immediately, so many calls and heated discussions were had. The PR company that were trying to control the door also informed me that the club seemed to have a colour-influenced door policy and when the PR girls questioned this seemingly prejudice policy, they were thrown out by security!

Readers, I was getting ready to go down there and knock someone out. I was so furious with the less than able half wit promoter who was the most ignorant, unhelpful, unprofessional person I have ever worked with. I organise events and parties for superstars regularly and never had I seen such malfunction.

The club was supposed to be giving all our guests wristbands to ensure their free beverages all evening, but our guests got nothing and were forced to pay extortionate bar prices. Meanwhile, the club charged their guests a lot of cash to pay to come and meet Mariah, so the club was mostly packed with people whom none of us had invited. It was a farce.

Even though a lot of celebrities like Sir Philip Green, Louis Walsh, Westlife, Geri Halliwell, Kanya King, Brenda Emanus, Alan Carr, Pixie Lott and Rupert Everett were inside, a lot of others – like Sway, Bashy and Lemar – were apparently treated very badly.

We finally arrived to a ridiculous fanfare and then people started frantically pushing, squeezing and flashing their cameras. This is how you know it wasn’t our guest list but the club’s crazy guests. Our guests come to all our events and never act the fool. They are made up of the likes of BBC 1Xtra DJs, Choice FM DJs, Kiss FM DJs, journalists from music magazines, online sites and so on. It was an absolute nightmare.

The DJ tried his best but the club had killed people’s party vibe and now it was just full of drunk nobody’s spilling champers all over everyone. The club staff had made our guests feel so bad that people were looking despondent or leaving. We hated it. It was horrible. We made small talk and smiled and greeted people but it was a wrap. We weren’t in there for more than an hour and had to escape.

Outside we heard yet more horrible stories of the club staff verbally abusing our guests. Video director Jake Nava was told to tuck his shirt in and Chipmunk was so vex he bounced after 10 minutes.

It’s pointless a club spending loads of money on PR, a publicity branded board, pink cupcakes and angel dressed bar staff, when the treatment of attending guests is going to be so bad.

The next day, after I finished apologising to my guests and reassuring them that this wasn’t typical of my events or what Mariah would’ve wanted, I did some research. Many industry people said the club had an awful reputation. I was saddened and surprised.

Maybe it’s naive of me but I truly didn’t think things in London were this bad. My DJ mates and industry people laughed at me, telling me I was silly to be shocked because in many West End clubs, apparently this is the norm!

I don’t understand why this has gone unchallenged for so long. But luckily, a friend of friend pointed me in the right direction and now I’ve been told that undercover government investigators will be making trips to clubs to see which are breaking the law, and those clubs may have their licenses revoked.

The bottom line: never go and spend your hard earned cash in clubs like Jalouse. They don’t respect or want you. Spread the word. We don’t advocate racism. Down with the Jalouses of this world.

Precious is a story about hope and survival.

(Full title: Precious: Based on the Novel ‘Push’ by Sapphire.) As Precious herself is an obese Harlem teenager, endlessly abused and pregnant for the second time with a child who is the product of incest, there’s a lot of pain to get through before you get to the hope part.

Set in Harlem in the late 1980s, Precious is a rags-to-riches tale of the emotions — and all of it brought to life by Gabourey Sidibe. The newcomer actor tells the story from her point of view; Precious lives with her abusive mother, is sexually assaulted by her abusive father and wanders around in a fog of poverty and hopelessness most days. What saves Precious is her imagination. From time to time, the movie takes a brief foray into fantasyland, wherein Precious imagines herself to be rich, famous, talented.

When it’s discovered that Precious is pregnant again, she’s removed from school. However, she gets the opportunity to attend an alternative school, and that’s where her intelligence is recognized and rewarded. Precious and her half-dozen classmates are all functional illiterates; as their real education begins, there’s a shot of all of them touring one of the dinosaur rooms at the Museum of Natural History, looking around as if they’ve just landed on the moon. It’s a great moment.

What happens next is how Precious makes a life for herself, against all the odds.

Precious is a film that never pulls its punches. There is no spoonful of sugar, no pat ending and no deus ex machina. (Although Paula Patton does seem a bit too good to be true in the role of Precious’ inspirational teacher.) What the movie has is a certain raw energy and some terrific performances, especially from Sidibe and from Mo’Nique, who plays her mother. Mo’Nique, whose work here will leave you sitting slack-jawed in the dark, is already regarded as a dead cert for an Oscar nomination.

Everyone in this movie does a good job; the cast includes Mariah Carey, Lenny Kravitz and Sherri Shepherd.

It has been interesting to watch the reactions to Precious, based on whether one sees the film as emotional, political or sociological. Above all, it’s a good story, well told.

The fact that Oprah Winfrey got behind Precious and gave it her seal of approval lends the whole project a whiff of worrisome maudlin uplift, but fear not. This film doesn’t shy away from showing the grim truth of Precious’ world.

Maybe she’s not the only one who needed an education.

KATE Garraway is in trouble with her GMTV bosses for making comments about Mariah Carey’s ‘diva-like’ behaviour.

The presenter wrote about Mariah’s visit to the breakfast show in her column for new! magazine.

Kate, 42, claimed Mariah had two people to help her sit down on the sofa, to stop her creasing her dress, and even brought her own toilet roll.

She said: “I’ve heard rumours about her being a diva. Turns out it’s all true. Have you ever heard anything like it?”

Kate also said the singer’s entourage outnumbered the GMTV crew and included people behind the camera to check Mariah was being filmed from the right angle.

But when it was later revealed she hadn’t even been in the studio at the time of Mariah’s visit, the mum-of-two was forced to backtrack.

Challenging Kate’s version of events, Mariah’s spokesman said the claims were a “gross exaggeration.”

The rep added: “With regards to the ‘entourage’, every star of Mariah’s calibre is surrounded by a working team and Mariah doesn’t actually have any more people working with her than any other major star.”

Although GMTV has made no official comment, a source revealed: “Kate regrets what she wrote and has been carpeted by GMTV bosses.

“She was mis-informed. She apologised to Mariah and her bosses and knows what she said isn’t true.

“She’s planning to issue an apology in her column next week.”
