Mariah Carey Is So Precious

Clad in purple, Mariah Carey arrives at the Nice airport sans hubby Nick Cannon, who recently took to his blog to defend his wife against insults made by her rumored former lover Eminem. Mariah is in town to join co-stars such as Lenny Kravitz at the Palais de Festivals at the Cannes Film Festival today for her film Precious, in which Mariah plays a social worker trying to help an illiterate New York teenager who is pregnant with her father’s baby. Precious is a contender in the Un Certain Regard competition, which recognizes unusual and original films. [Photo: Getty Images]
