Mimi is in DA ZONE. 

If you know anything about Mariah Carey (aside from her five-octave range), it's that she goes ALL OUT in everything she does. (See: that time she blinged out her arm sling and when she held a "Cinderella"-themed wedding vow renewal ceremony.) With that in mind, the above photo of Mariah rocking sunglasses indoors (not to mention that glacier of a wedding ring) while recording in the studio is no exception!

The "#Beautiful" singer posted the above photo to her Facebook page along with the caption, "Working on one of my favorite songs right now..." First, Mariah + a new song  = BLISS. Second, this photo makes waiting for the "Triumphant" songstress' new album even more difficult. (At first, Mariah's new disc was slated for release on July 23, but a recent tweet broke the news that Mimi just wasn't ready.) Alas, we'll just have to be satisfied with these photo updates from the studio. Oh, but don't even THINK that we're not gonna call out whatever that pink thing is (a nightlight?), because you and I both know that Mariah had that ish custom-made in pink and shipped from some faraway prince-filled European land that makes Liechtenstein look like one of the bathrooms at Port Authority bus terminal. We're sure of it.
