Oh boy! Above is a picture of Mariah Carey like we’ve never seen her before!
The singing diva is trying her hand again at acting (yes, we’re very nervous as well after that whole Glitter disaster) and is baring it all in her new movie.

Mariah, 43, has no make up on and has undergone a total makeunder to play her character Hattie Pearl in Lee Daniels’ The Butler.
Forgoing the glitz and heels, Mariah is taking on the role of a field slave in the film which also stars other heavyweights such as Forest Whitaker, John Cusack and Oprah Winfrey.

The Purge Is Number 1 at Box Office! The Internship Bombs
The horror movie, starring Ethan Hawke and Lena Headey, came in a strong first place this weekend at the box office with earnings of $34 million! Very impressive for a movie which only had a $3 million budget. In fact, the movie definitely surpassed its $20 million opening predictions.
Still going strong is the Fast & Furious 6 as it came in second with a $19.6 million gross. In just three weeks since it opened, the movie has now grossed over $200 million, surpassing its $160 million budget.
Now You See Me, starring Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Woody Harrelson, and Isla Fisher finished third with $19 million.
Fourth place went to The Internship, starring Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson, with earnings of $17.3 million. Safe to say the movie, which cost a reported $58 million to make, bombed.
The animated movie Epic came in fifth with a gross of $11.8 million.

Fast & Furious 6 Tops Box Office Again! After Earth Flops
For the second week in a row Fast & Furious 6 is first place at the weekend box.
The action movie, which stars Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, earned an impressive $34.5 million in ticket sales, bringing its two week total is an astonishing $170 million! In just two weeks, the movie has already earned back well over its $160 million budget.
Coming in second place this week is Now You See Me with $28 million. Those numbers are not that impressive when you consider the fact that the movie cost $75 million to make.
In what can only be described as a major flop, sci-fi movie After Earth which stars Will Smith and son Jaden Smith finished third place with $27 million. It’s safe to say the movie, which had a budget of $130 million BOMBED.
Fourth and fifth places went to Epic and Star Trek Into Darkness, with earnings of $16.4 million and $16.3 million.
The Hangover Part III dropped out of the top 5 this week coming in sixth place with $15.9 million. Not surprising since the movie has been panned with bad reviews.

Fast & Furious 6 Zooms Past Hangover 3 For Box Office Memorial Day Weekend Win!
Fast & Furious 6 is zooming past all of its competition this memorial day weekend as the movie, despite being in its sixth installment, came in first place at the box office!
Just how good did Fast & Furious 6 do? Let’s just say the movie earned a very impressive $98.2 million in its opening weekend! With numbers that great, the movie should earn back it’s $160 million budget in no time.
Coming in a rather distant & disappointing second place is The Hangover Part III, which while it didn’t bomb, definitely did worse than expected with a $54 million gross. Plagued with bad reviews, it might take a bit longer than expected for the movie to recoup its reported $103 million budget.
Star Trek Into Darkness comes in third this weekend with earnings of $38 million. The movie, which cost $190 million to make, has earned $146.8 million since its release.
In fourth place with earnings of $34.2 million is new animated movie Epic, which cost $100 million to make. Landing in fifth place is Iron Man 3 with $19.4 million. The movie had a budget of $200 million.
Leonardo DiCaprio’s The Great Gatsby continues to do well at the box office as the movie, which cost $100 million to make, earned $13.7 million this weekend, bringing its box office total to $114 million. Not too shabby!

Oz: The Great And Powerful Soars To The Top Of The Box Office For A Second Week
Oz: The Great and Powerful blew its way into the top box office spot for the second week in a row, earning $42.2 during its second week of release. After only 10 days of release, Oz has earned a whopping $145 million, making Sam Raimi’s magical film the highest grossing film of 2013 thus far.
Halle Berry’s new thriller, The Call, did better than expected bringing in $17.1 million during its opening weekend. Pretty impressive considering the film was released in fewer than 600 theaters and had a budget of only $13 million.
Warner Brother’s continued its streak of movie flops with Steve Carell’s latest comedy, The Incredible Burt Wonderstone. The film couldn’t conjure up more than $10.3 million over the weekend, earning it third place in the box office. This latest offering by WB will need to find a few more tricks up its sleeve if it hopes to see a decent profit from its estimated production budget of $30 million.
And bringing in the rear were Jack the Giant Slayer and the still popular comedy, Identity Thief. Jack came in fourth with $6.5 million in earnings, bringing its three week total to $53.9 million. Meanwhile, Identity Thief brought in $4.5 million, making it 2013’s second highest grossing film with a total of $123.7 million since its release.
