As she was going through her last year in middle school and about to enter highschool , (ok, we are talkin' the late 80's everyone) that is when Mariah first hit the scene with the video "Vision of Love" which rocketed her into total stardom.
Meanwhile, she started to get alot of double takes. Absolute strangers even would approach her with comments such as-"Has anyone ever told you that you look so much like Mariah?" and are you " Mariah Carey?" She went through high school winning look-a-like contests left and right and performing for various functions and fundraisers. She was always being considered "Mariahs twin" ( which is a total compliment).
