Mariah Carey has told German Cinema magazine that she's slept with less than five men in her whole life, and that she prefers the company of gay men. When asked about her sexual partners the singer responded "I would need less than the fingers of one hand to count them all. I have had lots of boyfriends, but I did not have sex with most of them."
She added : "If I even look at a man, he immediately thinks: 'Oh, she fancies me'." - which is why she prefers hang out with gay men who don't make that assumption.
