Mariah Carey: 'No one believes that I'm a great cook'

Global icon Mariah Carey has revealed that she's a really good cook, but no one ever believes her. 

During a personal Q&A session with Buzzfeed, the 'Touch My Body' superstar explained that she started getting serious about food when she was pregnant with her twins and fell in love with cooking: "I'm actually a really good cook and people don't believe this about me! When I was pregnant I needed to make sure I was getting my nutrients, so I just started cooking a lot."

"I always cook on the holidays and on Christmas Eve. I cook my dad's recipe for linguine and white clam sauce -- he left that recipe for me; he was a great cook. I love to cook; I get creative. It's fun and something totally different from what I do every other day of the year."

Carey was then asked if she prefers wine or champagne and confessed that she's trying not to drink at the moment: "Right now I'm not trying to have either one of them. But if I had to, it's all about the glass, so I would have to go with the champagne flute -- it's the best look."
