Her impression of Aretha is so accurate lol

[andrewgarfield]

I feel like things have really come full circle. Ever since Jennifer started this show I wanted Mariah to be a guest. And now she finally is. Also you can see that these too are actual genuine friends its very wholesome in a way considering how much Jennifer admires Mariah and has always been a fan and inspired by her.

Aretha Franklin and Mariah Carey are both divas and two of the greatest vocalists of all time, and it's crazy how they were born just two days

I really feel like this was necessary to bring Mariah's guard down. She's gone through a lot and has had to develop a shell in some other interviews. This was needed and I love to see the sisterhood
