MTV recently announced that they’re bringing back Cribs, that beloved show that gave us an inside glimpse into the homes of some of our favorite musicians, actors and athletes. Not that we didn’t already know that celebrities could live such lavish lifestyles, but Cribs showed us everything from in-home stripper poles to gold pool tables, private islands, obligatory food porn fridge shots and more. And though we assumed that everything we saw was real, we later found out that some of the homes (and cars – ahem, 50 Cent) featured on the show didn’t even belong to the stars who were showing them off. Hopefully, that won’t be the case this time around. In honor of its return, let’s take a look back at some of the best MTV Cribs episodes.

Mariah Carey
There was so much to unpack in Mariah Carey’s episode, they had to give her a full hour to display her New York City penthouse. The butterfly guest bedroom, her lingerie closet, the bedroom-sized bathroom and the lounge chair in her gourmet kitchen…we saw everything except her bedroom (and piano that formerly belonged to Marilyn Monroe). Cribs was clearly meant for a glamorous diva like Carey.
