American singer, songwriter, record producer, Mariah Carey is on the cover of August issue of Elle Magazine. With her otherworldly pipes, a lusty younger husband, and a record-shattering album, Mariah Carey is on the verge of all-encompassing world domination.

- But as Dan Crane quickly finds out, that doesn’t mean she keeps regular office hours. Talent and fame often come with a price, but for someone who has been a tabloid target for so long, Carey displays an admirable ability to not take herself too seriously—as witnessed in the video for her record-breaking single “Touch My Body,” in which a tech support dork from “Compu Nerd” (played by 30 Rock’s hilariously geeky Jack McBrayer) comes to her mansion to fix her computer and lives out his fantasy with Mariah, complete with slo-mo pillow fights and late-night walks with her pet unicorn.

“Much of this album is just jokes,” she says, “whether they’re inside jokes or pretty overt; but some people don’t want to actually acknowledge that I might tell a joke while singing a song or make it the actual hook.” (Elle Magazine)
