WORLD ENTERTAIMENT CHANNEL

Transcript

00:00 Britney Spears wrote about you in her book. Did you know that?

00:02 I heard something about it.

00:04 You want to know what she wrote?

00:05 Yes.

00:06 Don't worry, it's good. It's not bad.

00:08 I love her, actually.

00:10 She loves you.

00:11 Mariah Carey responds to Britney Spears' comments about her in her new memoir.

00:16 Yes, darling.

00:18 Let's rewind.

00:19 Brit dropped her highly anticipated book The Woman in Me last month, along with an audiobook

00:25 read by five-time Oscar nominee Michelle Williams.

00:28 It's everything that you would think it would be, and then a little bit more.

00:31 One highlight from the book?

00:33 Brit recalling meeting Mariah at an awards show.

00:36 At one awards show, I knocked on Mariah Carey's dressing room door.

00:40 She opened it and out poured the most beautiful otherworldly light.

00:45 You know how we all have ring lights now?

00:47 Well, more than 20 years ago, only Mariah Carey knew about ring lights.

00:52 Brit says she asked to take a pic with Mariah.

00:55 Her response?

00:56 She said, "No, come stand here, darling.

00:59 This is my light.

01:00 This is my side.

01:01 I want you to stand here so I can get my good side, girl."

01:04 She kept saying that in her deep, beautiful voice.

01:07 My good side, girl.

01:09 My good side, girl.

01:11 I did everything Mariah Carey told me to do, and we took the photo.

01:15 Of course, she was completely right about everything.

01:17 The photo looked incredible.

01:18 Well, Mariah caught wind of all that, and during a stop by Jimmy Kimmel Live on Thursday,

01:24 she weighed in on the special shout-out.

01:29 Mariah hadn't heard exactly what Brit wrote about her, so Jimmy read it aloud, and she

01:34 loved it.

01:35 I knocked on Mariah Carey's dressing room door.

01:37 She opened it and out poured the most beautiful otherworldly light.

01:42 You know how we all have ring lights now?

01:43 Well, more than 20 years ago, only Mariah Carey knew about ring lights.

01:47 Of course I had a ring light.

01:49 By the way, I wasn't like, "Oh, I love a ring light."

01:52 By the way, I like a ring light when you cover the bottom edge of the ring light, because

01:56 for me, I don't like an under-lighting.

01:57 It's very specific.

01:58 By the way, that was super sweet, what Britney said about me.

02:02 But Mariah wasn't the only celeb Brit mentioned in her headline-making memoir.

02:06 Yeah, it's been a rollercoaster.

02:08 The pop star's book featured a slew of bombshell revelations, including claims that Justin

02:13 Timberlake cheated on her during their relationship from 1999 to 2002.

02:19 You know what?

02:20 We have fun.

02:21 We're doing what we're doing.

02:22 Yeah, I agree.

02:23 You know, I mean, we're lucky individuals.

02:24 You're not going to see us complaining.

02:25 We're having a good time.

02:28 She also name-checks Christina Aguilera, who linked up for a joint tour with her ex after

02:33 their split.

02:35 They were together on the cover of Rolling Stone, him in a black tank top, looking at

02:39 her with sexy eyes.

02:40 In that story, she said she thought Justin and I should get back together, which was

02:44 just confusing, given how negative she'd been elsewhere.

02:48 Even if they weren't trying to be cruel, it felt like they were just pouring salt in

02:51 the wound.

02:52 Christina and Justin have both stayed mum about Brit's book, but a source previously

02:57 told ET that Justin, who married Jessica Biel in 2012, is focusing on his own family and

03:03 trying not to concern himself with Britney's memoir.

03:07 As for Mariah, she's loving it.

03:09 It was super sweet what Britney said about me.
