 In 2001, Carey suffered a physical and emotional breakdown, causing her to abandon promotion of her then-released studio album "Glitter" (2001), and its accompanying film.Since she was hospitalized for exhaustion, the film project received strongly negative critical feedback, with the album faring slightly better.Following Carey's absence from the public eye, as well as her abandonment of promotional appearances for the film and soundtrack, her unprecedented $100 million five-album record deal with Virgin Records (EMI Records) was bought out for $50 million.
