Mariah Carey has been accused of failing to understand algebra with the title of recent album "E=MC2".
The US pop icon rejigged Albert Einstein's landmark formula for her record, prompting the allegation from the charity Sense About Science.
Mathematician Dr David Leslie says her interpretation of "emancipation equals Mariah Carey times two" was wrong.
"The 'two' in the equation means C squared, not MC multiplied by two", he explained.
"The correct reading of the equation is E=MCC, so perhaps Mariah's re-interpretation should have been 'emancipation equals Mariah Carey Carey'?"
The singer is yet to comment on Sense About Science's revelation.
