Why Mariah Carey Doesn’t Celebrate Birthdays or Believe in Time

by

Why are you so obsessed with time? Mariah Carey wants to know. 

56-year-old woman recently verified an old tale about herself; she defies the progression of time, choosing not to live in a manner tied to it.

During a Capital FM interview on June 16, Mariah stated that what was being rumored was indeed accurate. However, she doesn’t subscribe to it herself and advised to move past it.

The “Obsessed” singer isn’t reliant on clocks, different time zones, or annual events, except for anniversaries. In simpler terms, they don’t usually care about keeping track of time using clocks, understanding different time zones, or celebrating holidays, but they make an exception for anniversaries.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I find myself often jesting about my supposed lack of birthdays. Should the need for celebrations arise, rest assured, someone will reach out to you and we’ll navigate the festivities together.

On another occasion, Mariah, mother of 14-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan (who are with her former partner Nick Cannon), has once more expressed an unconventional perspective. To be precise, in the past, she mentioned that she feels just as young, if not younger, than her own children.

In 2019, she expressed to Variety that she wished someone would remind her when it’s time to leave because she tends to run late. She admitted she behaves like an immature child at times, but her genuine fans understand this, as she remains forever youthful and playful at heart.

This very year, I, a devoted admirer, found myself joining an internet sensation known as the “10 Year Challenge.” Admittedly, I struggled a bit understanding the idea behind it, but curiosity got the best of me! Mariah was also part of this intriguing trend.

She wrote in her post on X, “I don’t pay heed to time,” accompanied by two similar photos instead of ten years apart. “This image was captured before today.

However, even Mariah may concede one idea about time, namely the festive season of Christmas, as it approaches the moment when she belts out her famous tune “All I Want for Christmas is You.

As she famously whistle-toned last holiday season at exactly midnight Nov. 1, “It’s time!”

Despite ongoing speculation, the exact timeline of when she initially wrote the popular 1994 jingle remains undecided. When asked by The New York Times in 2019 about when she composed the song, she playfully replied, “I wrote it in the womb, dear.

In June 2024, Jason Kelce posted on Twitter, expressing surprise at being labeled as someone who might not regularly clean their lower limbs, following a comment about his appearance suggesting he doesn’t wash his legs and feet.

The retired Philadelphia Eagles player later doubled down on his comments.

On their podcast “New Heights,” he jokingly remarked, “Who is this psychopath that gives foot baths?” With a hint of humor, he continued, “If I see dirt, I won’t hesitate to clean it off.

More than a decade ago, the actor who became famous from “Twilight” confessed that a story he shared earlier about witnessing a clown’s death in a car explosion at the circus as a child was actually untrue.

Looking back, I had no moment of doubt whatsoever as I shared with The New York Times Style Magazine during our December 2024 conversation. Instead, my reaction was more akin to, “Goodness gracious! Are you speaking under some sort of influence?

As for what he said during the 2011 Today interview promoting his film Water for Elephants?

He stated that one of the clowns met a tragic end. His miniature vehicle suddenly burst into flames. Sadly, this novelty car caught fire and caused harm to the clown. This sudden event left everyone in shock and panic, as it was a very frightening experience.

Grandma knows best.

During the October 2022 episode of ‘The Kardashians’, Kim Kardashian openly discussed how her grandmother, Mary Jo “MJ” Campbell, impacted a private moment between her and her then-boyfriend, Pete Davidson.

Kim Kardashian shared an interesting story with MJ, Kris Jenner, and Khloe Kardashian about a recent weekend stay at the Beverly Hills Hotel. She mentioned that she and Pete were seated by the fireplace for hours conversing, when she casually said, “My grandmother always told me that life is truly lived when you make love in front of a fireplace. And so, we decided to do just that, as a tribute to you.

Grandma’s reaction? A nod of approval.

Kim remarked, “It’s a bit unsettling to consider your grandmother while engaging in intimate moments, isn’t it?” To which MJ responded, “Yes, I understand. We were all young once.

In our closely bonded family, which consists of my adorable 8-year-old daughter Wyatt, my energetic 6-year-old son Dimitri, and the love of my life, my husband Ashton Kutcher, the affection we share transcends all limits.

So much so, that the Black Swan actress revealed they keep an open-door policy at home.

She informed TopMob News in September 2022 that it encompasses the bathroom. It’s a situation where, whether positively or negatively, our family and children view normal bodily functions as quite routine.

After constant knocks and requests from her family to enter, Mila eventually agreed, saying something along the lines of, “Well, never mind. Just leave the door open.

Pre-kids, she might not have imagined she’d flush that particular boundary away.

she stated, “I wouldn’t have imagined that I’d be the type who could use the restroom with the door ajar.

Ghouls just want to have fun.

During a particular episode in October 2022, panelists on The View were discussing footage about a woman claiming to have “ghostly sexual encounters” at home. At this point, Sara Haines posed an intriguing question: “Could one conceive if they engage in intimate relations with a ghost?

Luckily for her, co-host Joy Behar provided a response, remarking, “I’ve bedded a handful of spirits, yet I’ve never conceived.

In response, Whoopi Goldberg casually commented, “I’ll let it be for now, as I believe some of you may have caught what Joy mentioned earlier.

Jenna Bush Hager and Hoda Kotb are as close as peas in a pod, although there was one thing Hoda wasn’t aware of regarding her co-host on the Today show. During their preparation for an episode of Today with Hoda and Jenna, Hoda found out that Jenna often chooses to not wear underwear.

During a recent episode of “Today with Hoda and Jenna,” Hoda commented, “We had to change our outfits before the show. So, I said, ‘It looks like we need to return to the dressing room.’ However, I soon realized that Jenna doesn’t typically wear underwear.

Jenna’s rationale? Well, no underwear might just be more convenient to her.

She commented, “It creates a more aesthetically pleasing outline,” she added, implying there are numerous advantages to it!

Looks like someone hasn’t been keeping up.

Britney Spears acknowledged that she was unaware of who Pete Davidson and Scott Disick were, finding herself in agreement with Keke Palmer’s popular phrase “I wouldn’t recognize him if he walked down the street.

Sharing again on Instagram a funny March video featuring Pete, who at that time was dating Kim Kardashian and Scott (Kourtney Kardashian’s ex), Britney captioned it by saying they were making her laugh out loud.

In my recent post (which I’ve since taken down), I shared something amusing that caught my attention. I must confess, I’m not familiar with the individuals in the video, but their antics left me in stitches!

Prior to when Chris Evans was recognized as Captain America and People’s Sexiest Man Alive in 2022, Jana Kramer remembered him as the charming, cute guy she went out with on several occasions.

Over a decade back, the artist shared on her “Whine Down with Jana Kramer” podcast in November, albeit she can’t pinpoint the exact number of dates, she does have memories of their final meeting.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d rephrase it as follows: At approximately 26 years old, I found myself accepted into Chris’s home, a gracious gesture amidst his friends’ visit from Boston.

Jana recalled our last encounter was him entering the bathroom, shortly after I left following an asparagus-scented pee. That evening, we didn’t get intimate. Instead, he stayed up late with friends and in the morning, I awkwardly exited his place, mimicking the ‘asparagus walk of shame’.

She added, “I never heard from him again.”

Not all of these confessions are amusing.

Eight years after revealing in an ELLE article that she had been dealing with a rare form of bone cancer (which turned out to be false, as it later inspired a Grey’s Anatomy storyline), writer Elisabeth Finch confessed in December that the diagnosis was actually fabricated.

In her interview with The Ankler newsletter on December 7th, Elizabeth shared that she made a terrible mistake at the age of 34 by telling a lie – an error that has only grown larger and more deeply regrettable over time. She further clarified, “I’ve never had any form of cancer.

In simpler terms, Finch, who temporarily stepped down from his role in the ABC medical drama and later resigned, admitted, “My actions were wrong. Not acceptable. A mistake. Put another way, I messed up.

Beauty is pain, but Kim Kardashian might be able to stomach it.

Discussing her desire for a more youthful look with The New York Times, the reality star jokingly admitted that she wouldn’t hesitate to explore almost any option available.

Back in June, if someone had told me I’d need to eat dirt daily for a youthful appearance, I might have hesitated… but I just might have given it a try!

During an interview with Allure in July 2022, Kim clarified that her initial comment was more of a joke, but she admitted it wasn’t entirely far-fetched.

Reflecting on the matter now, Kim said, “In all honesty, I might even consider eating such a thing if someone assured me that eating this bowl of feces daily would make me appear more youthful.

She indicated that she might be able to accommodate a small portion, as she said, “Perhaps just a single bite,” to the source. However, she doesn’t believe she could handle an entire bowlful.

Jelly Roll could’ve used some saving from himself.

During a guest spot on “The Jennifer Hudson Show” in April 2025, the artist famed for “Save Me” candidly shared one of his most cringe-worthy experiences.

“I pooped myself one time,” he admitted. “I did, I’m sorry.”

However, it’s important to note that Jelly Roll (originally known as Jason Bradley DeFord) probably wasn’t anticipating the severe impact he would cause.

He asserted, ‘It seemed everything was just empty space.’ ‘I apologize deeply. My performance left the audience who once adored me feeling indifferent.’
