Mariah Carey continues to be an absolute icon with her 10-year challenge

Mariah Carey does not allow herself to age. 

She recently posted her take on the 10-year challenge, which has people comparing photos of themselves from 2009 and 2019.

"I don't get this 10-year challenge, time is not something I acknowledge," she tweeted, along with two of the same bomb photos side by side. 

Can we just talk about this?

Time is not something I acknowledge.

TIME. IS. NOT. SOMETHING. I. ACKNOWLEDGE.

Time does not control pop sensation Mariah Carey, because pop sensation Mariah Carey is above it. She doesn't acknowledge it; therefore, it doesn't dictate her life. Mariah Carey's cells don't age and die, because she is above Time. Mariah Carey is the closest that humankind has gotten to achieving immortality. 

For reference, here are some photos of Mariah in 2009. Nothing has changed.
