Mariah Carey has been hotly-tipped to star in new movie 'Tennessee' - despite being lambasted for being a bad actress.
The pop diva - who famously failed to impress in her 2001 big screen debut 'Glitter' - has reportedly been lined up to play a waitress who joins two brothers on a mission to find their long lost father.
Mariah, who was once named the third worst rock star/actor of all time, will start shooting in New Mexico and Tennessee this spring if she wins the role.
Earlier this month, it was claimed the curvy songstress - who also appeared in 2002's 'WiseGirls' with actress Mira Sorvino - insists on having popcorn in her dressing room before she performs.
The star, who is famed for her outlandish backstage demands, reportedly requests that bags of the sweet snack are available for her to much on before and after her shows.
A source close to her said: "When she was promoting her last single in the UK, she asked for Butterkist toffee popcorn in her dressing room."
