Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Thirsty. By Songfacts®.

This bouncy track finds Carey telling off her lover for being thirsty for celebrity instead of giving her affection. The song was co-written by singer and produced by Chauncey Hollis aka Hit-Boy, who has also worked on tracks by the likes of Eminem, Jennifer Lopez, Lil Wayne and Rihanna.

The single version of the song features a guest verse by Atlanta rapper Rich Homie Quan ("Type Of Way").

Carey's soon-to-be-ex-husband, Nick Cannon, thought this scathing track was aimed at him, but the singer denied it. "I wrote that so long ago," she told Showbiz411 shortly after the album's release. "I don't know what Nick was talking about the other day. That song is not about him."
