Do you all remember WHERE YOU WERE when you discovered the video of when Ellen Degeneres asked Mariah Carey if she was pregnant — then when Mariah denied it, Ellen attempted to force Mariah to drink alcohol to "prove it." Just ME?...maybe — but it SHOOK me to the core. I think about it every 2–3 business days.

I rushed to share all the the wild celeb moments the internet STILL can't get over.
