Terry Richardson shot Mariah Carey for Wonderland magazine's summer issue and, according to the unretouched images obtained exclusively by Jezebel, it would seem that Uncle Terry's point-and-shoot-built-in-flash style isn't flattering enough for publication.
The first-week sales numbers for Jennifer Lopez's upcoming album — A.K.A. — are not looking good. But I don’t think you can count her, or any other “divas,” out just yet.
