Mariah Carey Slams Kim Kardashian's 72 Day Marriage

Mariah Carey makes a very catty remark while obviously comparing her marriage to Nick Cannon to Kim Kardashian's quickie marriage and divorce from Kris Humphries.

Mariah Carey took a pot shot at Kim Kardashian, calling the reality star's marriage to Kris Humphries "fake."

"I'm a real person, I'm not going to put on a fake face for Hollywood," Carey said, when asked about her husband Nick Cannon at a press conference at the Four Seasons. The singer has lost a total of 70 pounds since giving birth to twins Monroe and Moroccan, and the press conference was held to announce that Jenny Craig had named Carey a brand ambassador. “Sometimes we make each other mad, that's why we aren't divorced after four months.”

Carey was, of course, referring to Kardashian filing for divorce after just 72 days. When the crowd reacted to the statement, Carey calmed the swell, adding, "I'm sorry, I'm just saying."

Carey may be happily married to Cannon since 2008, but she also had an experience with a marriage entered for the wrong reasons. In 1993, she tied the knot with Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola.

"You know, I had a situation in the past where I was controlled, and I was really young," she told the event host, Gayle King. "It affected the way I trusted people,"

She has previously said of her marriage to Mottola, "I was treated almost like a prisoner.

Everybody around me was deathly afraid of him. I became so scared. I was like an obsession and a possession."

She ended the marriage after five years.

After the brief detour, Carey quickly got back on topic, steering the conversation toward her weight loss. She says she felt very uncomfortable at her peak weight during her pregnancy. "I had a towel on in the tub," she said. "I’m not lying, I promise you! You think I would let Nick see me looking rancid like that?"
