Mariah: 'Call me Mimi'

Mariah Carey has become the latest singer to adopt a new name - she's chosen to call herself Mimi.

With Jennifer Lopez dubbing herself J.Lo, Janet Jackson taking on the moniker of Damita Jo and Madonna asking to be referred to as Esther, Carey will now be using her private nickname in the title of her upcoming album, The Emanciptation of Mimi.
