Mariah Spills Her Tupac Crush in New Interview: “More Than Butterflies.”

Mariah Carey Reveals Her Longtime Crush on Rap Legend Tupac Shakur—Still Emotionally Haunting 30 Years Later

Visiting with Brown Bag Mornings on Los Angeles’ Power 106 FM, the elusive chanteuse got candid—really candid—when the conversation turned to her 2020 memoir, The Meaning of Mariah Carey.

Unleashing this nostalgic yet endearing deet, Mariah shared:

“He said it like, ‘Hi, Mariah…’ and I was like ‘Ahh!’” she remembers, breaking into laughter. “And I was hosting the AMAs that year, so I had to keep going back and forth, but I wanted to keep going back and forth because that happened.

Safe to say, Mister Tupac left an everlasting, charismatic memory impression.

So, what say you, darlings? Did this unexpected crossover of pop royalty and rap legend leave you with butterflies too? Drop your thoughts in the comments—nostalgia welcomed, fangirling encouraged.
