Mariah Carey has embarked on diet consisting of mostly purple foods, because she believes that these foods will stop the aging process and therefore prevent her from getting wrinkles. Wait – isn’t that why she does the botox thing every few months?

“It sounds off-the-wall but it’s a huge injection of healthy food in one go. Purple products are nature’s best weapons in the battle against ageing [sic]. There’s a saying that ‘a plum a day keeps a facelift away’.”

One would think that Mariah is vastly limiting her culinary experience to just eggplant, grapes, plums, currents, raisins, but that’s probably not the case. She’ll probably direct her staff to import purple potatoes from Peru and Bolivia, just to maintain her youthful glow. At the first hint of diet-induced boredom, she might also have to resort to purple soda, juices, and Kool-Aid, as well as Jelly Belly gourmet jelly beans.

Once Mariah reaches the point of desperation, she may start consuming the man chowder of Prince (formerly known as The Artist, formerly known as Prince). The fountain of youth, indeed.
