'This Morning' host Phillip Schofield launched a rant on Twitter when Mariah Carey turned up an hour late for an interview.

The Press Association reports that the presenter posted a series of messages on the site when the American singer failed to show up on time.

He moaned: "Sitting here twiddling our thumbs waiting for Mariah Carey. la la la laaa." Schofield later posted: "Her people have arrived!"

The host later added: "She's just changing her mind about what she's wearing!" - following his sentence with a series of exclamation marks.

Carey's appearance was being pre-recorded on Monday and is due to be broadcast next week.

After meeting the star, Schofield changed his tune, saying: "To be honest, she was lovely and very easy to interview. She sang live and hit notes only bats could hear." He Tweeted: "She was also suitably apologetic for being an hour late. And yes ... an entourage greater in number than the population of Denmark."
