Mariah Carey is ‘Obsessed’ with herself and proud … celebrating her “iconicness” as she took home her first-ever BET Award Monday night.
Check out her spirited speech … the pop star is elated to accept her Ultimate Icon Award at the 2025 show, sharing an overarching message — Don’t let anyone dull your shine.
She noted … “It took me a while, but I finally realized life is far too short to live for anyone else’s approval, which is something I always did. So I decided to own who I am. My extra-ness, my fabulousness, my and yes, my success and my iconicness.”
Mariah encouraged people to be shamelessly themselves as well, adding … “Love and respect yourself. Be a diva, be a boss, be anything you wanna be. But be iconic while you’re doing it.”
MC received the special award along with Snoop Dogg, Kirk Franklin and Jamie Foxx — the latter of whom gave a tear-jerker of a speech about having a second chance at life after suffering a nearly fatal stroke.

She rocked the stage in her true diva form — showing fans what makes Mariah the icon she is.
