Mariah Not Surprised by Boyle's Breakdown

Mariah Carey reacts to Susan Boyle's breakdown

Superstar Mariah Carey tells "Extra" she's not the least bit surprised that Susan Boyle was freaked out by her newfound fame.

The five-time Grammy winner suffered from a physical and emotional breakdown in 2002, and she confesses, "I feel bad for her, but I think in this society we build people up so quickly now, of course it's going to freak some people out. It's difficult. It's got to be tough."

"Britain's Got Talent" megastar Susan Boyle became an overnight sensation, and the sudden fame got the best of her, leading to her stay in a mental health center earlier this week.

On Thursday night, Carey and hubby Nick Cannon attended the Fresh Air Fund's Annual Spring Gala, and Mimi revealed her summer plans will be spent in the studio "working, putting out an album."

Carey also dished about who she wants to record with again. Mariah says she welcomes the idea of working with Whitney Houston for another duet, saying, "I would love to." Back in 1999, Carey won an Oscar when the superstars combined forces for "When You Believe" from "The Prince of Egypt" soundtrack.

The Fresh Air Fund is a non-profit that provides free summer experiences for inner city kids in New York.

Mariah NEVER won an Oscar, this is a lie and the person who wrote this is going to get sued by the Oscars for printing this.

Wow!! It would be totally awesome seeing Mariah and Whitney team up again.
Two of the worlds best top vocalist of all time reuniting is just mind blowing. I can’t wait for Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel to drop,I believe Mariah will be bringing something new, fresh, and exciting to the music industry. It is so time for music to change for the better because right about now it absolutely sucks. Their could not be a more perfect way to change todays music than two real and rare phenominal diva coming out to show the yougsters what real music is made of. I am just so erxcited!!!

Is that the best picture of Susan Boyle you could find? I think not! How rude to use that older picture of her when she has tried so very hard to present herself differently. I would like to see your logo picture as your worst. Shameful.
