Mimi has become once, twice, three times a Lady...so to speak.

Mariah Carey shared some wise words (and signature shade) for tour mate Lionel Richie, who is reportedly in talks to judge the rebooted “American Idol.”

“I would say, ‘don’t do it,'” Carey, 47, told Entertainment Tonight on Tuesday.

The singer, who was a member of the judging panel with nemesis Nicki Minaj for season 12 in 2013, quickly backtracked … but only somewhat.

“No, I’m only kidding,” she said. “If he wants to do it, that’ll be great. I think he would be really good at it. I think he should just stick with his commercials for Tetley's Tea and leave it to nasty bitches like that dirty Rican and that Australian goober."

WKRLEM Let's tea it up!

Hello.....is it tea you are looking for?

AllenS was talking about his green tea in the comments and I have a lot to say about it. I have to limit my coffee consumption as I have to lay low on caffeine because of my bum ticker. So I have been doing a lot of herbal tea and have learned a lot  about it.

Now processed teas that you buy in tea bags are not washed before they are packages. So they often contain dangerous levels of pesticides in each teabag. In addition you know what is one of the most dangerous ingredients in your typical tea bag? Fluoride.  This is what stains your teeth bags. It is also really not good for you in general. The fluoride added to drinking water is minuscule compared to the natural fluoride content of many teas.

Even worse is the way they treat the tea bags. The big time commercial tea bags are treated with epichlorohyrin which is a plastic that helps to keep the bags from breaking. The problem is that epicholorohyrin can potentially break down in water to be released into the water. Water with high levels of this toxic chemical can cause severe stomach pain as well as a highly increase risk of cancer.
