Mariah Carey just stole Kate Upton's 'Game of War' spokesmodel gig

Immortal queen Mariah Carey will replace Kate Upton as the face (and cleavage) of the freemium mobile app Game of War.

Upton, the Sports Illustrated swimsuit model who turned 23 earlier this week, has starred in the game’s TV commercials since 2014, and played a babely warrior in a Super Bowl spot.

The historical boobs and destruction-themed (at least, that’s what we’re getting from the ads?) game might (partly) have Upton to thank for its phenomenal success. It’s said to be earning $1 million a day.

But now it’s Mimi’s turn, dahling. TMZ reports that the 45-year-old diva will be paid seven figures to star in an upcoming 30-second commercial, which is also set to feature her music.

We’re hoping that Carey goes full Glitter with this performance — please let it be terrible, but also great, and great, but also terrible.
