Mariah Carey insists her album isn't full of tracks aimed at Eminem, despite reports her war of words with the rapper is behind her new songs.

In a new Los Angeles radio interview, the R&B star refused to even mention her former friend - but hinted Eminem is wrong to poke fun at her andhusband Nick Cannon in his latest hits.

Eight years ago, maybe I knew that person, kind of, in a very platonic way and yet they're still using my name in songs in order to boost their career, which I don't think is working

She told DJ Ryan Seacrest, "Eight years ago, maybe I knew that person, kind of, in a very platonic way and yet they're still using my name in songs in order to boost their career, which I don't think is working. "It's just obsession...

Anybody who would write a song about somebody and try to say nasty, disgusting things about them eight years later, when they're married, I'm like, I don't think so". And Carey is urging the media to stop reading too much into her new songs - they're not all about Eminem "If I write a song, called Why Are You so Upset With Me, and people are seeing that person in the song, that's not my problem".
