Mariah Carey NOT Playing Vanessa Hudgens’ Mom!

MARIAH Carey has spoken out to set the record straight on rumors she’s to play Vanessa Hudgens‘ mom in a movie.

Recent reports had claimed the pop diva — who won critical acclaim for her role in Precious — would be teaming up with the High School Musical star for a comedy flick based around the popular X-Factor and American Idol TV talent shows.

“Mariah is eager to capitalize on her acclaimed performance in Precious with another movie,” a source said in December. “There is one project where she would play one half of a mother and daughter singing duo who audition for a TV talent show.

“Vanessa Hudgens has already been approached for the daughter role. The only sticking point seems to be whether Mariah feels comfortable playing mom to a teenager. She’s a little sensitive when it comes to her age.”

But Carey insists this isn’t the case.

“I haven’t heard that,” she told Us Weekly magazine when asked about the reports.

“I’m doing a lot at the same time. I’m on tour right now and stuff.

“There has been a lot of stuff that I’m really excited about!”
