Thanksgiving with the stars

Access Hollywood was criss-crossing the nation with the stars who are giving back this holiday season. Mariah Carey served up a sweet Thanksgiving to 300 children and their families at the True Worship Church in Brooklyn as part of her work with the Fresh Air Fund. Our auditioning correspondent Egypt was there alongside the superstar.

"She kicked off the glamour girl and dived right in. You started serving up the collard greens," Egypt told Mariah.

"Serving it up. I had a what do you call that?... an apron?" replied Mariah.

"Now do you cook?" inquired Egypt.

"I do actually cook. I don't really use an apron when I cook though. This is my first apron experience," said Mariah.

"You cooks in high heels," joked Egypt.

"I do cook in high heels," said Mariah.

But Mariah was serving it up in sweats today, bringing joy to hundreds of children. She told Egypt she'll spend the rest of the day eating turkey in bed and resting her voice to record her new CD "The Emanicipation of Mimi". Mimi was Mariah's childhood nickname.

"I never really understood 'Mariah' as a name. It always kind of was like nobody could spell it at school. Nobody understood how to pronounce it, so 'Mimi' became my thing," revealed Mariah.
