Mariah settles with her nanny

-

Mariah Carey has settled a lawsuit filed by a former nanny who claimed the diva and her then hubby, Nick Cannon, treated her like a slave and forced her to work more than 100 hours a week without overtime.

The amount of the settlement of Simonette DaCosta’s Manhattan federal suit was not disclosed, and neither side’s lawyers returned calls for comment.

DaCosta claimed in the suit, filed in January, that Carey and Cannon forced her to rotate between working shifts of seven 12hour days and five 24hour days.

She says she was paid $ 3,000 to $ 3,600 twice monthly from October 2013 through late January 2014 before being canned for being “too affectiona­te” with the couple’s toddler twins.
