Mariah Preveiws Album!!!

Mariah Carey has given pals an exclusive playback of her new album - from the comfort of her bath.

The singer -who took a relaxed approach to playing the new disc to pals - claims the LP is "very girlie".

She says, "I sat in the hot tub the other night playing some songs for some friends and one of them felt that is was a very pro-woman thing.

"It's not that the songs are male-bashing. It's a fun record."
