Another former teacher claimed, “Mariah was a bit of a diva,” while one of the “Hero” singer’s former peers alleged that Carey “would get up really early for school to get ready” and “would take a needle to her eyelashes so each one was straight and perfect.”

Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James was reportedly a “pretty polite kid and didn’t do too poorly, but fairly cocky and obviously obsessed with basketball.”
