Hardcore, but not too hardcore

If you’re wondering, the image is from a copy of the Sunday Times Magazine wherein Mariah Carey describes her music as “hardcore, but not too hardcore.” I love this. It proves you can say anything, and as long as you believe it – even if you are the sort of person so deluded that you want a million white kittens to serenade you as you enter a room – people will print it without questioning. Okay, so it probably helps to be both extremely rich and superbly famous, but if Mariah Carey can claim to be hardcore without anyone so much as raising an eyebrow, I should be able to get away with more.
