Mariah Carey brought shirtless models, champagne and Diva attitude to TCA

Leave it to Mariah Carey to woo television critics with oiled-up hunks and Veuve Clicquot.

Carey visited the Television Critics Association's summer press tour to promote her forthcoming reality show, the aptly-titled Mariah's World on E! (Yes, it took until 2016 for someone to give Mariah Carey her own reality show. Don't ask us why.)

Instead of a sizzle reel, Mimi brought her own kind of sizzle, going full diva on the TCAs crowd of critics.

She arrived onstage — “Hi, photo op,” she introduced herself — with a posse of shirtless men, perching on a purple velvet throne and sipping champagne through her chat with critics, during which her glam squad fixed up her hair and makeup.

“Anybody else need a touch up? It’s very expensive," she joked.

Her chat only got more diva-esque from there, as she dished on Nick Cannon appearing on the series (it's still a work in progress) and a potential new album (it's also still a work in progress).

For all the A-listers we can expect to see on Mariah's World, her former American Idol co-stars won't be among them. “It was the most abusive experience," she said about her brief stint in the judges' chair, before taking another swig of champagne. "By the way, you’ve just driven me to drink.”

And when one enterprising critic asked Mimi which other pop singers she admired in the music industry, she wouldn't take the bait. "They would be lovely ladies, but it’s not their day."

Mariah's World premieres on December 4 at 9 p.m. ET on E!.
