Mariah Carey is a multi-millionaire herself, and engaged to Australian billionaire James Packer, so it seems a little embarrassing that it has to come to this.
Alison Carey, Mariah’s elder sister, who has faced numerous medical conditions over the years, currently awaits brain and spine surgery, and is crying for financial aid from her sister.
In a video made available to MailOnline, Alison begs Mariah to come to her aid. Alison and her brother Morgan say Mariah is reluctant to help.
Indeed, two weeks ago, Morgan called Mariah a witch because he said she refuses to help their sister.
“Your sister is dying and she’s struggling and where are you? You think you are so fabulous, but you are a witch.” Morgan told the Sun.
“She probably spends more on dog food than it would cost to make sure her sister gets properly cared for.”
Alison, a former prostitute, is battling HIV, and despite surviving a recent health scare, still has to undergo brain and spinal surgery.
“Alison has desperately reached out to Mariah over and over again. We never hear back.” Morgan had said in his earlier rant to the Sun about Mariah.
Now Alison herself has added her voice to the plea with this public video.
In the video, the distraught 54 year old says to her famous sister: “Mariah I love you, I desperately need your help.”
Reps for the singer have told MailOnline that it’s not true Mariah is not taking care of her sister.
“Through the years, Mariah has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars supporting Alison and her children,” the rep told Daily Mail Online. “In fact, Mariah has supported her extended family for over two decades.”
