Mariah's ex-manager blames singer in sexual assault suit

Mariah Carey's ex-manager is threatening to "lay bare" the singer's secrets in court. Stella Bulochnikov - who managed Carey for three years until an acrimonious split in 2017 - is being sued by Carey' former assistant Lianna Shakhnazaryan, who claims that Bulochnikov sexually assaulted her.

But in a countersuit, Bulochnikov blamed Carey for the whole situation - and ominously threatened to "lay bare" the "troubling reason" for the "Butterfly" star's culpability. In her suit, Bulochnikov claims that - far from being a victim of misconduct - Shakhnazaryan was a menace to people who worked around her.

In court papers, Bulochnikov admitted that she and former pal Shakhnazaryan used to engage in friendly "horseplay" while on tour with Carey. But in the suit she claims, "Shakhnazaryan's horseplay was far more aggressive and inappropriate compared to Stella's benign conduct."

The suit claims Bulochnikov has video of Shakhnazaryan "exposing her breasts to multiple people, including one or more minors, inviting others to throw objects into her bra, provocatively dancing in a highly sexualized manner" and that she has texts including Shakhnazaryan's "sexualized discussions with a minor of Shakhnazaryan's genitals".

Meanwhile, Bulochikov claims in the suit that "Carey is not without blame. To the contrary, Carey's failure to supervise and rein in her employee allowed and facilitated Shakhnazaryan's wrongdoing."

She adds ominously, "Should this matter proceed to trial, the full extent of Carey's role and responsibility - including the troubling reason why she failed to control her employee - will be laid bare." She says, "For the time being, Stella will respectfully refrain from providing details."

Bulochnikov filed a sexual-harassment suit against Carey last year, which was settled out of court.

Stella and her circle of snakes. The gift that keeps giving. Basically they all behaved like fools in front of Stella's kids and probably in front of the twin, which they did for all to see on a consistent basis. That really calls her own parenting into question.

Stella is what what happens when you suck face with a stranger in a seedy bar when you're drunk, lonely and desperate. You thought you had a good time until the day she becomes a symptom and your mouth is covered in cold sores - surprise, she's herpes.

I'm so sick and tired of all this drama. Stella needs to get a life, move on and let go, and leave Mariah alone. Does anybody know how stupid this makes her look? Stella and her past assistant are dragging these made up lawsuits out so long that it's going to hurt them much more than Mariah.
