Mariah Carey seems to be tying up all the
loose ends from her prior life as the wife of
Sony music head Tommy Mottola. The
Hollywood Reporter says the scantily clad
Butterfly singer has decided to shut down
her Sony Music label, Crave Records, the
home to such acts as Allure and 7 Mile.
Carey did not give a reason for the decision,
but said she will work with Sony to find a
home, most likely at Epic Records, for the
artists and her Crave employees.
The diva also seemed to hint that more changes may be in the works:
"The most important thing for me and Sony Music is making sure the
artists are well taken care of, whether they end up somewhere else
with me in the near future or stay within the Sony system."
Carey formed Crave last year, but the label's future has been in doubt
since the singer's quickie divorce last March from Mottola. The
songstress is currently trying to launch a big screen career, and she'll
reportedly begin shooting the spy spoof 00-Soul in October with
comedian Chris Tucker.
