- Story Text: Pop star Mariah Carey launched her new beverage Beautiful in New York on Monday (June 9).
The singer has teamed up with music executive Kevin Liles to create the pink non-alcoholic drink that will take you directly inside carey's world via an app.
"What I love about this is it's my own forum to showcase anything that I feel like showing that day. Just like everybody is Instragraming their breakfast, whatever they are doing that morning. This is a whole another thing. Like we can do this and I will almost be in the room with you. Like, I don't want to give away our secrets darling. But everybody else is going to be mad that they didn't do it first. That's all I have to day," said Carey.
During the press conference Carey said producing a drink is natural fit.
"I have always wanted to do something with a beverages because, you know, I'm always singing. It's either going to be water or it's going to be tea," said the veteran who just released her 14th album.
"Or sometimes a splash of champagne, that's another day, that's another story. And perhaps another experimental moment," she added with a smile.
The beverage will be sold in the U.S. drugstore chain Walgreens and all Manhattan Duane Reade drugstore locations. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
