MARIAH CAREY - CAREY TO MOVE TO BRITAIN?

Pop beauty MARIAH CAREY is considering moving to Britain - if she enjoys her time in London where she'll be starring in West End musical THE PRINCE AND THE SHOWGIRL.

The GLITTER beauty will play MARILYN MONROE's celebrated movie character ELSIE MARINA in the stage show next year (05).

And she's reportedly planning to buy a house in Belgravia if she feels at home in London after her acting stint.

An insider tells British newspaper the DAILY MIRROR, "She'll be starring as Elsie Marina. And as she's likely to be here for several months, she's looking to buy a place in Belgravia. It has to have at least six bedrooms and it's fair to say that money is no object."
