There are talks underway for a Broadway musical to be made based on Mariah Carey's life. The buzz is that British singer Leona Lewis would play Mariah. The Telegraphsays Mariah is secretly fond of that idea.
"But Mariah secretly likes the idea of Leona Lewis playing her.
"Not only is she exotic, she's the only one who they reckon would be able to tackle Mariah's eight-octave vocal range."
A spokeswoman confirmed: "Mariah is in talks for a Broadway musical to be made about her life in 2009."
Carey apparently only agreed to the show after a heart-to-heart with her husband Nick Cannon on their Christmas holiday in Aspen this year.
You can tell that Leona Lewis does have the range if you listen to her Bleeding Love single. Other sources say its still possible Mariah could take the role herself or it could be played by another actress such as Vanessa Hudgens or Eva Longoria.
