Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon Divorce News: Wife Breaks Down after Courtney Love Gives “Hero” Singer Credit as Inspiration? [GOSSIP NEWS]

Fans of Mariah Carey know that she has a bit of a reputation for acting a eccentrically -- especially after a longtime lovers up and splits. According to the latest gossip news updates, Mariah's closest friends and family fear that the "Hero" singer will once again have mental a breakdown like she reportedly suffered back in 2001, now that that her divorce from Nick Cannon is proving to be too much for the diva. While Amber Rose's rumored America's Got Talent boyfriend has clearly had enough of living with his her much older wife, Courtney Love finds the "Butterfly" crooner to be an inspiration. According to the latest gossip news updates, Kurt Cobain's widow revealed that she modeled her character on Empire after Carey and her over-the-top antics.

It is common knowledge that Mariah Carey can get so upset by a major breakup that it can affect her health, and friends/handlers are more than a little worried that Mariah might be on the verge of another mental and emotional collapse.

A source claiming to be close to the singer insists in the latest OK! Magazine that Carey's people are starting to worry themselves sick that Mariah will soon snap under the pressure (via Gossip Cop):

"Fears are mounting for the fragile singer...Those closest to her are seriously considering staging an intervention, before there's a repeat of what happened in 2001 -- or worse."

 "She's still devastated about losing Nick and now that she's realizing her voice is gone too, she's losing control.

"Her behavior is completely unstable and her family is afraid that her 2001 psychotic episode could repeat itself."

Although Maraih's reputation has clearly taken a beating in the past year, Courtney Love revealed that her old friend was still the perfect example for an iconic diva as far as she was concern.

In a recent interview with TV Guide, Love claimed that she based most of her character as an old school singer on the new TV show Empire on Carey as well as one or two notable others:

"I kind of took the diva-ness of Mariah [Carey]...Mariah is her own universe and I adore her, but she's hilarious.

"[Plus] a little Stevie [Nicks...I always steal from Stevie anyway."

Well...hearing some news like that would definitely explain some of Mariah's reported drinking.
