Not Exactly Heroic

[Blind Gossip] When a celebrity reveals something deeply personal out of the blue, the first question you should ask is, “Why?”

This famous singer claims that she decided to reveal a personal health issue before someone else could exploit her secret.

However, before you start patting her on the back for being such a hero, check this out:

She didn’t do it because she is brave. This is all part of her legal defense. She is going to claim that when those things happened she was “sick” and “off her meds” so she can’t be held criminally responsible for her behavior.

Well, that’s not exactly heroic!

  4. Mariah Carey, her bipolar diagnosis, and now someone coming out with sexual harassment claims.

    Yikes.

    Clues: her song “hero”

  6. Mariah carey announcing she is bipolar; her expublicist just filed a harrassment lawsuit saying she was naked and such.

  8. Mariah Carey

    Crafty plan, that’s for sure. It seemed a little weird when she announced it out of nowhere.

  13. Mariah Carey – bipolar disorder. Clue heroic – her song Hero. Optional – seems to work for every other celebrity, why not her?

  16. Mariah Carey and her random accouncement of being bi-polar.

    Hero – name of one of her songs

  18. Mariah Carey

    And considering her behavior in the past, it won’t take much to convince anyone.

  20. mariah
    i mean it has been done before but i am not gonna shame her for her mental illness

  24. I have no idea, but if deflecting blame is her favorite game it must be Demi Lovato.

  26. Singer is Mimi, with Bipolar disorder.
    She was pretty crazy for a while, no wonder why Nick left.

    Clue is her hit Hero in the 90s

  30. Mariah Carey. She’s going to claim she was off her meds when she walked around her former manager naked.

  31. Singer: Mariah Carey.
    She’s recently come forward, saying she is bipolar. This is going to be the excuse she uses for her disastrous New Year’s Eve performance and anything else she can pin on it.

  34. Mariah Carey for her claim of bi-polar.

    Never a good plan to blame it on meds or lack of. she is just crazy period.

  38. Mariah & bipolar disorder
    Legally, doesn’t negate her responsibility unless they argue she was mentally incompetent to make any sort of contractual agreements.

  45. Please not Conchita Wurst, winner of the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest. She just announced her HIV status yesterday.

    • This is probably it. The key words of this blind item are ‘before someone else could exploit her secret’, and Cochita is claiming she’s being threatened with blackmail.

  48. Mariah
    She said she has bipolar disorder
    She is being sued by her former manager or someone

    • I remember back in 200…2? I don’t know, years ago, she went crazy and skipped a load of commitments due to it and it was a headache for her record label (my dad’s friend worked for their legal dept). I don’t doubt she has mental health issues but I think her revealing it now is a tactical ploy.
