Mariah Carey has announced intentions to create, produce and star in a new Broadway musical.

Songs will be drawn from her back catalouge, including 1994's Christmas album, and new compositions will be specially written. The singer is quoted by MTV:

"I don't want to mention anything definitive until things are signed, but there's a very big company that just signed on to develop the project with me."

But, theatre fans, whatever stage version of the project eventually emerges will probably be preceded by a movie. Did the girl learn nothing from Glitter?

"It's probably going to be a movie first," says the 36-year-old. "I don't want to say a television movie, because it's not like a cheesy network movie, but then it's going to be made for the Broadway production."

Cheese. Mmmmmmmm...

"Created, produced by and starring Mariah Carey" - the badge of quality.

All they need now is Dolph Lundgren co-starring and Michael Bay behind the lens and I see Oscars just falling from the sky onto this flick/stage show/extinction-level event...

I'd hit it and declare war on those who would.

Men who factor things like personality and temprament into whether they "would" have to be a bit weird themselves, no?

personality and temprament

are important in a relationship.
they are less important in hypothetical and essentially pointless (though fun) questions of whether you "would" or "wouldn't".
i would.
