The author and pop music legend mentioned a specific incident during a Thursday appearance with Andy Cohen on Thursday’s edition of Cohen’s nightly talk show, “Watch What Happens Live.”
“Rocky just got bullied the other day by a White supremacist person that he thought was his friend,” Carey lamented while addressing the prejudices she’s experienced in her own childhood. “It’s like, insane. So this is the world we live in.”
