If you've ever wanted to have shimmery, golden skin like the stars, look no further. Mariah Carey is developing a new fake tan made with 24-karat gold dust.
The singer says she is beautifully bronzed every night on her current "Emancipation of Mimi" tour and has hired a personal tanning assistant, Jenny Phillips, to spray her before going on stage.
Mariah and Jenny, of Beverly Hills' exclusive Portofino Sun Center and Spa, have now teamed up to create an extravagant new fake tan made with real gold.
"She is on tour with Mariah and they are developing an exclusive line of bronzer containing real 24-karat gold dust," said Mariah's rep.
The "We Belong Together" singer is famous for her outrageous diva demands and extravagant tastes.
In the past, Mariah has paid for her Jack Russell dog - named Jack - to fly first class, refused to walk up or down stairs, requested a red carpet be rolled out for her arrival at a London hotel and reportedly demanded toffee.

Ahh, man! Just as I giveth, I gotta take away.
First class dog flight ticket - SORT OF true; the airline would not accept her pet without a human companion, so she paid what the airline ASKED to get him to her when there was nobody free to travel WITH him.
'Won't DO Stairs' O.M.G. Isn't the media tired of being STOOPID? The woman's claustrephobic - she HATES LIFTS - so how do you think she get's to her penthouse suites?!? Furthermore - watch her MTV Cribs - if she doesn't 'DO' stairs, then what do we see her climbing to her Moroccan Room? A Flying carpet? Oh but wait - she doesn't do those EITHER...And yet, there seems to be some awfully plush carpet-resembling materials on the floors not covered in marble...
Last but not least (I ain't got time for the toffee nonsense); how many people, including the Hotel staff here in London (whom I AND others asked personally), have to tell you that the woman didn't request no damn carpet and candles? Things like this are just SO damn NONSENSICAL! Why can't y'all pick on people who DESERVE it? Madonna bought a baby to make herself look good; Angela Jolie split up a MARRIAGE and a HOME, then covered it over by acting like some fake-ass "Earth Mother" - why does no-one have a problem with them?!?
