Mariah Carey deviates from her normal sex-kitten image, temporarily, in her new video for her single, “Obsessed.” Carey taps into her masculine side as she dons a hoodie, oversized jeans and even facial hair. The change in attire is meant to copy and make fun of rapper Eminem, who earlier this year put out a diss track aimed at Carey.

The video is expected to premiere July 13.

This past weekend was the NYC Pride celebration and all I have to say is – I love my people!! Lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgenders – I love ‘em all – regardless of race. It was wonderful to see members of the community flood the streets of New York in celebration of pride, just being all prideful.

By the way, I spotted Marquis of MTV’s True Life: I’m Bisexual (Season 3, Episode 16) over on W4th early Sunday morning. He’s such a cutie. Free, former host of BET’s 106 & Park came on the mic Friday night as DJ Mary Mac spun the tracks. Great party!! Had me dancing on a chair. Also spotted a couple of video girls up in the parties, identities will remain nameless… for now. The parade was not rained out. And Kin4Life gave a great performance Sunday night at Alibi.

Overall, the parties, people and events were great.
