Get ready for a new round of celebrity mansions... on a smaller screen. MTV announced Thursday they would revive its popular series "Cribs" but the program will come back shorter and on Snapchat. Also different will be the filming of show, which will cut out a film crew. Instead stars will turn the camera on themselves as they show off their ritzy digs, according to Variety magazine.
The reboot is expected to launch in June, with rapper Mac Miller and singers Austin Mahone and Travis Mills slated for the first few snaps. The MTV show launched in 2000, giving viewers a glimpse of celebrity pads. It ended its run over a decade later in 2011, delivering hit episodes like the one featuring Mariah Carey's infamous penthouse which matched her diva attitude.
Here are some of the best moments from "Cribs" to remember before tuning in to the revival:
Mariah Carey
In a 2002 episode, Mariah Carey proved she lives true to her larger than life style. The pop star refused to show off her bedroom or the alleged Marilyn Monroe piano she owns. She did, however, allow cameras into her butterfly themed room, which housed her fan mail. She also revealed she likes to forget about the world while wearing a towel in her hot tub.
