Mariah Carey ‘spent $70,000 on one-way flight’

Singer Mariah Carey has reportedly instructed her staff to book the entire first class cabin on a flight.

Carey, who is known for travelling in style, apparently booked the cabin on a British Airways flight for 70,000 pounds, reported Contactmusic.

The 44-year-old star will go for 67th Cannes Film Festival next month and does not want other passengers to bother her during the flight.

A source told The Sun newspaper: ”Over the years Mariah has grown accustomed to traveling in ultimate style so she doesn’t think twice about paying such a crazy amount to ensure her privacy.

”At least she’ll be able to stock up on the missing passengers’ complimentary eye masks and hot towels.

”Let’s hope she doesn’t demand that British Airways lays out fluffy carpets for her, kits out the upper deck with puppies and paints the interiors cream. To be honest, it would be cheaper for Mariah to just hire her own private jet.”

Mariah – who has two-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe, with husband Nick Cannon – is no stranger to diva demands.

In 2005, she famously requested a London hotel roll out a red carpet lined with candles for her late night arrival and refused to get out of her limousine until staff had done so.
