Mariah does her comeback with her most authentic album

Barcelona, Spain. Excited people waiting expectantly, cameras. What was going on in the luxury Hotel Gran Florida yesterday evening? The answer: Mariah Carey was promoting her latest album, "The Emancipation of Mimi", in Spain. Prior to the press conference, some journalists got tired of waiting for the diva - who, as every celebrity, was late - and a group of fans that had won a contest made by the Mariah Carey fanclub to stay in such place, willing to wait for her as much as needed to see their idol.

One hour later, Mariah appeared surrounded by several bodyguards. She was dressed in a spectacular tiny dress with such high heels that made her keep the attention while walking. Smiling and nice when being questioned, miss Carey made clear that "The Emancipation of Mimi" was her most authentic album. In fact, Mimi is the nickname used by her closest people.

To Carey, this album has been a liberation: "Nobody thought it was going to be so succesful as it is. I didn't feel any pressure when I was writing it." And that's why she thinks that "it's the best album I've made, the most sincere". She is the female artist with more #1 in charts history, behind Elvis Presley and The Beatles. She doesn't want to be compared to them, because "they are in another level".

After a spectacular failure with the "Glitter" album which made her leave her last label, Virgin, Mariah Carey does her impressive comeback "without the intention of taking revenge, just being proud of my work".
