Mariah Carey is an icon.
The 48-year-old (or 49, depending on who you ask) pop star has never shied away from her diva reputation. In a 2017 interview with Paper magazine, the singer explained that being a diva runs in her blood.
"I have had diva moments, and then people can't handle it," she said.
That kind of fearlessness is what makes her Mariah.
And whether she's bringing her own lighting crew to a radio show or making up words on the Home Shopping Network, there is never a dull moment with the superstar singer.
Here are 15 of her wildest moments.

When she subtly dissed Madonna.
Carey proved she was the queen of reactions back in 1995 when she was asked about Madonna saying she'd "rather kill myself" than sing pop songs like Carey.
The singer responded: "I really haven't paid attention to Madonna since I was in, like, seventh or eighth grade when she used to be popular, so I didn't hear that."
When she made a surprise appearance on "Total Request Live."
Strutting out in a large T-shirt with "loverboy" written on it, singing into a microphone, and pushing an ice cream cart, Carey surprised guests and host Carson Daly during a taping of "TRL" in 2001. She then preceded to take the shirt off, told Daly he was her "therapy session," and spoke about random things. Daly repeatedly said he didn't know what she was doing there and then told the camera directly, "Mariah Carey's lost her mind." She checked herself into a hospital a few days later, citing "extreme exhaustion."
When she got into her full tub while wearing a towel on "Cribs."
On a 2002 episode of MTV's "Cribs," Carey showed off her massive and stunning New York apartment, complete with fish tank and a full room serving as a closet. But the best moment was the bathroom tour, where she put on a towel and climbed into a full bathtub.
