For awhile, we didn’t understand why Mariah Carey cared that a porn star shared a similar-sounding name. Aren’t music and pornography very different worlds?

But now that we’ve learned Mariah will pose in Playboy, it’s apparently the soon-to-be washed up singer will soon be starting a career in skin flicks herself.

She’ll just say it never happened, just like her lies regarding Eminem getting her in the sack.
