The mother-of-two is no rookie when it comes to finding flattering lighting and reveals one of her unique life mantras as she glides into a late-night dance rehearsal. “I have a rule, which states that I will not be seen in fluorescent lighting without sunglasses. I know it’s very ’90s. I don’t give a f—.”

Mimi can’t get to sleep without Apple TV

Some people need white noise, others prefer the soothing sounds of the ocean. But for Mariah, it’s a more modern luxury that settles her.

“The Apple TV is the most important thing for Ms MC. If she can’t have the Apple TV playing while she’s sleeping then she can’t sleep. If she can’t sleep, she can’t perform. If she can’t perform, there’s no show. If it’s not there everything else falls apart,” her panicked assistant Molly explains as she tries to figure out the hotel’s complex tech system.

“Oh, the agony! I’m on a yacht and I have to go on a swim in diamonds and a dress,” Mariah announces before jumping off her yacht into the glistening waters of Capri. “Whatever, this is perfectly normal and everyone does this.”

“He has so many responsibilities and I’m a night person, (so) it’s not easy for us to spend every day together,” Mariah explains from her yacht while lamenting the fact James’ yacht is just around the corner. “But when we do things, we have great moments together. I think he’s fantastic.”

Dance rehearsals are serious business

Despite attending dance rehearsals for apparent hours on end, all we really see Mimi do is grind up and down and not perform any actual dance moves.

Rules to live by! Mimi refuses to be seen in Fluorescent lighting without wearing sunnies.
