(Yahoo!) - Hey kids, make sure you get good grades in school,  work hard, and one day you just may grow up to be...Mariah  Carey's personal umbrella holder!

Yup, that apparently is a real job title--or, at least, a  real job anyway--based on this snap of Carey in full diva  mode at a Baton Rouge American Idol photo shoot Thursday. The  superstar AI judge was flanked by security, including one guy  whose sole chore appeared to be blocking the 85-degree afternoon sun from  damaging his boss's flawless complexion.

Well, hey, if anything, we're sure this gentleman is well-paid for his  work--if probably not challenged too much by it.

Carey reportedly beefed up her security after a blowout catfight with fellow AI judge Nicki Minaj  earlier in the week. Her Minajesty allegedly threatened violence against  Carey--however, all seemed to have gone peacefully yesterday at the shoot. At  any rate, if another fight had emerged between the two  alpha-female judges, at least they'd be able to duke it out in a nice shady  place.
