Mariah Carey leaving her hotel in New York City
It’s Mariah Carey’s way or the highway!

She also refuses to be photographed on her left side, but the reason why is more surprising than you may think.

These days, though, we doubt she is too concerned about which side of her face is captured, as she is too busy being in love! She and backup dance Bryan Tanaka seem to be going strong, after dating just months after her split from James Packer.
