The recent wave of sexual harassment allegations in the entertainment industry has now besmirched R&B singer, Mariah Carey. According to reports made by TMZ, the singer’s former head of security, Michael Anello, drafted a lawsuit with a series of inflammatory claims against her.
The lawsuit is still to be interposed, but Anello’s company is threatening to go to court if his demands are not met. Anello’s lawyers presented the famous singer with the draft of the lawsuit, where they describe in detail how the singer constantly humiliated her chief of security by referring to him as a Nazi, a skinhead, a Ku Klux Klan member, and a white supremacist.
Mariah Carey a racist?

Besides the humiliation, Anello’s lawyers also claim that his company, who worked for the singer from June 2015 to May 2017, was stiffed out of $221,329.51 and the promise of two further years of work, which add up to a total of $511,000. Inside the draft, there is also a description of an incident where the singer of ‘One Sweet Day’ inappropriately exposed herself in front of Anello.
According to TMZ reports, both sides are trying to reach an agreement at the moment. Mariah’s people reportedly got in touch with Anello’s lawyers on Monday and agreed to pay some past due invoices, but the former security guard was not satisfied with the amount.

Anello claims that Carey’s abuse was not only directed at him but at his friends as well, to whom she constantly referred as members of the aforementioned hate groups. Anello also says that the singer “wanted to be surrounded by black guys, not white people.”
The most troubling accusations toward the five-time Grammy award winner are the sexual harassment claims. Lawyers allege that the singer committed “sexual acts with the intent that they were viewed by Anello.”

According to TMZ, the security guard claimed that during a trip to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, Mariah Carey asked Anello to come inside her room with the excuse that she needed some luggage moved. Once inside, Anello says that the singer was only wearing an open, see-through negligee and that when he tried leaving, Carey started to insist on her luggage being moved.
Anello reports that there was no physical contact. According to TMZ, “Mariah’s people have no information on the sexual-harassment claim.”
