Mariah Carey has finally given a reason that “Glitter” flopped: Sept. 11.

“I released it around September 11, 2001,” the singer told Swiss newspaper Sonntags Zeitung as translated on fan site MariahDaily. “The talk shows needed something to distract from 9/11. I became a punching bag. I was so successful that they tore me down because my album was at number 2 instead of number 1. The media was laughing at me and attacked me.”

The crooner also said that the flop was just too cutting-edge for it’s own good. “‘Glitter’ was ahead of its time,” she explained. “Today it’s ‘in’ to make 80’s music.”

This, from the woman who I believe refers to her fans as 'little lambs' and probably has a bedroom full of unicorns, rainbows, and assorted teddy bears.
