Mariah and Luis in Aspen



Pop diva enjoys snowball fights with new love and orphan children in Colorado mountains. Caught having fun in the snow with her new boyfriend was singer Mariah Carey. The diva has been working hard on her debut movie, All That Glitters, with Max Beesly, the boyfriend of Spice Girl Mel B. The film, which has been shot in Canada, will be released in the summer and Mariah has been doubly busy because she wrote all the songs for the movie as well as singing them.

She took a much needed break in Aspen, Colorado, with her fiance, Luis Miguel, who is known in South America as the Mexican Elvis. For their first few days in Aspen, Mariah invited groups of orphan children, for whom she has worked tirelessly, to join her for some fun in the snow.

Mariah and Luis spent their days like big kids, skiing, riding bobsleighs and playfully throwing snowballs at each other. They also enjoyed romantic nights in front of a blazing log fire drinking hot chocolate and toasting marshmallows.

The two have been busy going in different directions for work and have found it hard to catch weekends together, so the Aspen holiday was a welcome relief. Mariah, whose marriage to Tommy Motolla-president of her record company Sony-ended in 1998, is on a particular high having found new love and got her acting break.

"There were really nice things about my relationship with Tommy but they were few and far between," she says. "I was happy to be successful but I was frustrated because I wanted to act. I'd wanted to act since I was a little girl but some people didn't think the same way and want me to do it at all. I just wanted to study acting and finally when that happened it was a real breakthrough, because I was really unhappy. I was very excited to do All That Glitters. It's set in 1981 and my character is in a girl group. She's not the lead singer but she's like the tomboy hanging around in the background."

(OK)

Many thanks to Regina from Mariah Daily.
