Mariah Carey: “People think I am ditzy”

According to an AP story Mariah Carey will be in the April issue of Allure magazine which hits newsstands nationwide March 25. The talented singer addresses how her sexy image clashes with with her talent and how she still has problems with maintaining self-confidence. Supposedly, she doesn't care that people find her to be "ditzy," I beg to differ. It must get to her at on occasion. Perhaps not every waking moment, but people with insecurities and problems with self-esteem deal with this issues, and often some of their insecurities are based on how they feel others perceive them to be.
She’s quoted as saying:
I've always had really low self-esteem, and I still do," she said. "What's weird about that is being onstage, and the love that you get, and the adoration that you feel from your real fans. It's hard for a partner to compete -- just imagine."

I guess the skimpy clothes and “flaunt it, if you have it” philosophy help to keep her self-esteem right up there in the clouds. She is 37 years old and you’d think a light bulb would go off saying: Hello, I need to dress more appropriately for my age. And hopefully, she will stop wasting that magnificently beautiful voice on crappy songs, and start singing grown folk music, instead of trying to keep up with the teenie boppers.
