Mariah Carey 'Planning West End Remake Of Marilyn Monroe Film'

Mariah Carey has spoken of her ambition to bring a new musical to the West End stage.

The singer is said to be planning a theatre version of the Marilyn Monroe movie The Prince and the Showgirl.

Carey, who owns the rights to the film, told the Daily Star newspaper: “I like the idea of doing it but it’s all down to the time – you have to commit for a rather long time and now is really hard for me.

“But it’s a dream that I want to achieve in the future.”

As previously reported on Gigwise, Carey’s recent album title, ‘E=MC2’, has been described as "misleading" by scientists.

A new study rubbished Carey’s claim that the title stands for “emancipation equals Mariah Carey times two”.

Meanwhile, Carey spent the Christmas holidays with her husband Nick Cannon in Aspen.
