In carson's defense, what would you do if a global superstar showed up to your little show unannounced as you're about to toss to break and started acting like that? he had nothing prepared. she was acting erratic and crazy and he had to say something. i do think the word "strip" was picked up on by the media simply because its the word carson chose to use. she hardly put on a "stripshow" as the media made it out. i personally think MC had a cocaine problem in the early 2000s. i can certainly see her misusing it w the amount of nonstop work she was doing. i also remember my brother telling me he heard she was from her tour bus driver. obviously no way to know if it is true.
