leadimage On the poster for I Love You Phillip Morris, Carey looks camp and gay for laughs, but blame the distributors and don't let it put you off.

Little monsters (as Lady Gaga likes to refer to her fans) from all over Ireland started queuing outside the O2 from early morning on Saturday the 20th to assume prime positions by the stage for the gig.
