Former “Glitter” star and overrated songstress Mariah Carey will partner with Pepsi and Motorola to produce “20 original voice and music ringtones” to be released this summer.

No word yet on whether Carey’s work will manage to weave in Pepsi’s “brown & bubbly” tagline launched during this year’s Super Bowl. Following in the footsteps of former Pepsi shills P Diddly Duffster, Britney Spears, and the oh-so-flammable Michael Jackson, Carey will also appear in a TV commercial promoting the sugary soft drink and the exclusive ringtones.
This is a wonderful development (even if she doesn’t get set on fire) — because if I could make a Mariah Carey song stop playing just by answering my phone, I would do it every time.
