Although MC Herself has not confirmed this, David is a rather good source, so fans who want another Christmas album can probably start getting excited.</p>
<p><strong>MARIAH STARTS SHOOTING NEW FILM ON 1 JUNE</strong><br />
Mariah will start work on Tyler Perry&#8217;s new film, For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When The Rainbow Is Enuf, in Atlanta on 1 June. Mariah is part of an ensemble female cast who&#8217;ll take small roles in the film, including Janet Jackson, Whoopi Goldberg, Kerry Washington, Loretta Devine, Anika Noni Rose and Macy Gray. For Colored Girls&#8230; is scheduled for release in the USA on 14 January 2011 (no SA date has been set yet, but since its a Tyler Perry film we shouldn&#8217;t have to wait too long after that!).</p>
<p><strong>MARIAH &#038; NICK TO RENEW VOWS ON SECOND WEDDING ANNIVERSARY</strong><br />
MC and hubby Nick Cannon are planning to renew their wedding vows again on 30 April, their second wedding anniversary. &#8220;I encourage everybody to do it. If you are happy and in love, celebrate it!&#8221; Nick says. His gift to MC will be &#8220;something very thoughtful and it has nothing to do with money.&#8221; He adds: &#8220;We are just trying to keep the romance alive. That&#8217;s all.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>MARIAH&#8217;S FRAGRANE NOMINATED FOR &#8220;FRAGRANCE OSCAR&#8221;</strong><br />
The Fragrance Foundation announced its finalists for the 2010 FiFi Awards (the &#8220;Oscars&#8221; of the fragrance industry) in a conference at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in New York last Friday, April 23. Mariah&#8217;s &#8220;Ultra Pink&#8221; received a nomination in the Women&#8217;s Popular Appeal category! The Fifi Awards Gala will be held in New York on 10 June.</p>
<p><strong>OBSESSED WINS SONG-WRITING AWARD</strong><br />
The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) hosted its 27th annual Pop Music Awards last week in Los Angeles, California, and Obsessed was was among the 50 songs awarded the &#8220;Most Performed Song&#8221; of 2009 title. C. &#8220;Tricky&#8221; Stewart, co-producer of Obsessed, was on hand to collect the award</p>
<p><strong>ANOTHER WEEK, ANOTHER RECORD&#8230;</strong><br />
Mariah thanked Her Brazilian fans in Portuguese on Wednesday, for continuing to keep Her hit cover version of I Want to Know What Love Is, at the top of the Brazilian radio charts, for an awe-inspiring 27th week. &#8220;Eu te amo! Obrigada!,&#8221; MC posted on Her Twitter page. &#8220;Brazil! #1 for 27 weeks!!!! That&#8217;s a new record for me! I can&#8217;t even know what to say,&#8221; she commented.</p>
<p><strong>INVITE YOUR FRIENDS!</strong><br />
