While Mariah Carey went through a dramatic transformation for her appearance in the hit film "Precious," she also make a major makeover after a quick-change on the red carpet at the Capri Hollywood Film Festival in Italy yesterday.
While the superstar singer (turned acclaimed actress now) showed up at the film event in what looked like long-johns, she returned to the red carpet hours later looking like her diva-self in a red, sequin, floor-grazing gown to accept the Capri Award for Supporting Actress of the Year 2009.
