Coconut Dummy

SOLVED!

[Blind Gossip] This female celebrity is quite rich and quite vain. She recently had cases upon cases of coconut water delivered to her home.

Thirsty?

No.

She had read that coconut water was good for your skin… and wanted to take a bath in it.

She had [a member of her household] pour some of the cartons (it seemed like hundreds of them) directly into the tub. The rest was heated up on the stove and carried in big heavy pots and dumped by hand into the tub. She wanted the tub to be full and at the perfect temperature.

After bathing in it for an hour or so, she was less than impressed with the results.

She was complaining that she didn’t feel a difference. She went back and read the article again and realized that it said coconut MILK, not coconut WATER. Dummy.

[Optional] How much do you think that bath cost her?

SOLVED!

Woman: Mariah Carey

Yes, Mariah Carey, the ultimate diva, bathes in liquids other than tap water!

Blind Gossip told you about the incident with the coconut water/coconut milk. In an interview published today, she talks about her preference for bathing in milk (or, in a pinch, mineral water)!

From The Guardian:

‘I bathe in milk’: Mariah Carey on bossiness, breakups and being bipolar

Mariah Carey is the most famous, or infamous, diva in the music business. And today she doesn’t disappoint. When I ask whether the outlandish stories about her are true, she becomes spectacularly diva-ish about her own divadom. “Are there myths about other people and their diva-ishness?”’ she asks. Of course, I say – but not as many. “So I have more myths about the diva-ishness?” Yes, but I’m trying to find out if they are true. OK, fire.

Is it true you once asked for 20 white kittens and 100 white doves as a rider? (In 2009, it was reported that this is what she had asked to be surrounded with when opening the Westfield shopping centre’s Christmas lights, but she was turned down on health and safety grounds.) “No, 20 cats is an absolute lie. I’m not a cat lady. I don’t have one cat any more.”

Fair enough, I say. Do you insist on a new toilet seat and gold taps whenever you stay in a hotel? “I mean, honestly? Golden taps! I could just buy a house for that!”

Please, can this next one be true – your reputation is at stake: do you only bathe in French mineral water? “No, I bathe in milk.” Really? “Yes, sometimes I use milk as a beauty treatment. I don’t want to give away all my secrets.” Hot or cold? “‘Cold milk.” So the mineral water is not true? She smiles. “Well, I guess if there’s no clean water and I had to use mineral water, maybe I would.”

You can read the entire article here.

By the way, we did the math. If Mariah Carey she used an average-sized bathtub and filled it up, she would require 100 gallons of liquid.

A bath in organic cow’s milk: $700

A bath in coconut water: $850

A bath in coconut milk: $500

A bath in Voss mineral water: $1200

Your mileage may vary.

Congratulations to EastCoaster andMaryQuiteContrary who tied for being first – and definitive – with their correct answers! You’ve both earned yourselves a milk bath and a glass of champagne!

  3. No idea who this is but it sounds as if a coconut hit her in the head! They are called milk baths for a reason.

    • Oh my word you made me laugh out loud!! Especially since I’m thinking it’s her as well.

  15. Based on the similar blind, I’m guessing Taylor Swift (or Karlie Kloss but Taylor is the richer of the two and most likely has some sort of staff at home). It doesn’t seem like a big deal to me though. Most people do something for the sake of vanity. She can certainly afford it so why not?

  19. Haha … this cracks me up! Could be countless starlets but certainly serves her right!

  26. Kim K

    Money isn’t an issue for her but I’ll bet with the cost of fair labor and all things considered probably just shy of ten grand. Conspicuous consumption here is thy poster girl. Go away… please.

  30. Kylie Jenner

    Plenty. Coconut water isn’t cheap..even if you buy it at Costco

    Her brain power isn’t too high on the scale

  34. LOL, Kim Kardashian, could this be YOU??? Yesss, it certainly could be.

    Hopefully it set her back enough to stop her from wasting any more money on the product, as I don’t think anything will change her face at this point.

  37. This has got to be a Kardashian, probably Kim. I think Nasim Pedrad’s SNL parody of Kim actually did her justice

  38. Sounds like Jennifer Aniston, she seems to pay a lot for her beauty regimine….

    Funny we all know you can bath in milk for silkier skin, it doesn’t have to be coconut milk…..

  43. Paris Hilton (IDK who it is but she hasn’t been mentioned in a long time so I know she needs the attention ?)

    Lotsa $$$$$

  45. Oh, Gwyneth…

    Probably not too much… $100 – $150 for the water, $2.75 for the servants to create her bath…

  50. idk who this is but lmfao!
    i want to say paltrow (goop girl) but this could also be mariah carey or kim k
