Why do they do it to us? I shouldn’t say us, it’s not us, it’s me.'She said: 'I’m the one who’s the most tortured by the hideous lighting in elevators, doorways, gyms , not that I go to the gym, I’m just saying.'It’s hideous lighting. The sun is okay if it’s sunset, I’ll gladly go outside and put a little hat on or whatever and that’ll be pretty because the sunlight caresses your skin.'Mariah concluded: 'It’s bad for you, so you have to be careful. But overhead lighting I don’t think so honey.'Please stop it! Everywhere I go, shut the lights! I don’t want to see them no more. Overhead lighting, it makes me sick!'
