Mariah tries to put Glitter behind her with new movie role

It's taken seven long years, but Mariah Carey is ready for her close-up again after the box-office bomb that was her movie debut, Glitter. Mariah stars in a low-key drama called Tennessee, playing a waitress with big-time singing dreams. The movie premiered this past spring at the Tribeca Film Festival, but we'll have to wait until December to see if the second time will prove to be the charm for Mariah's acting endeavors. The painfully bad Glitter earned a paltry $4.3 million dollars in 2001 and put the singer's acting career on ice for a long time.
