Mariah Carey Larry King Live Video 11-4-09 [Full Interview]

Here is the Mariah Carey Larry King Live video of her full interview Nov. 4, 2009 on the CNN talk show. The entire in-depth discussion was wide ranging, from a detailed look and film clips of Precious Based on the Movie Push by Sapphire in which she has a critically acclaimed role, to her married life to Nick Cannon, to her performance at the Michael Jackson memorial, and more in her first appearance on the program since 2002.

Noting that she was promoting both the movie as well as her 12th studio album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, she acknowledging that she does want to have children, but that this is not the right time. She talked about her musical upbringing, her opera singer mother, reflected upon her legacy as the best female music artist, with more No. 1 hit single than any other solo artist, including Elvis Presley (most recently, Obsessed has become her 12th platinum selling single).

When the talk show host asked her if she had ever been abused, within the context of discussion of the Rihanna Chris Brown domestic violence incident, she said “Abuse has several categories,” and went on to acknowledge emotional abuse, saying that she would eventually talk about it when she wrote her book. She also addressed her breakdown and that her faith was responsible for enabling her to bounce back. That particular clip can be seen here: Mariah Carey Tells Larry King She Was Emotionally Abused
