Alzheimer's (112,302) by Lambi from USA
Lighty and I are actually just having a good ol' lambily conversation. We're referencing what we know and we actually agree with a lot of things. No fights and we've also been rather respectful towards each other.

Not calling anyone delusional. Not insinuating "you're not a professional" therefore you know nothing, like what you have been doing.

Just so you know, being rude to lambs then subsequently virtue signaling with the heartfelt "She's given us 30 years of crazy live performances", with a at the end, doesn't change the fact that you're rude.

Alzheimer's (112,301) by Lambi from USA
That's what I said, definitive sign just means definitive symptom. So what I'm saying is that's not even a symptom. Just a story you simply can't meticulously recall.

Fair though, honestly Whitney moments are as rare and significant as Celine and Aretha moments and boy does she remember those stories. I would've also safely assumed she somewhat has moments with Nippy kept solid in mind.

Another #1 (112,300) by Libra Lamb from USA
I don't think Mariah will get another #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 that's not All I Want For Christmas. As much as I'd like so see it happen, it's very unlikely. I don't mean to count her out. She's clearly very talented. But the problem is, in my humble opinion, she's not relatable at all. Some might even say she's not real. They know who she is, but they "don't know her". As much as she presents herself to be real, a lot of people are not buying it, and therefore not buying her records. Maybe she'll prove me wrong with another hit. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Alzheimer's (112,299) by JLR from United States
The fact that you guys are diagnosing her without knowing a single thing or being a medical professional is wild. Just throwing random medical terms out there like it's any of your business is crazy. I hope she stays away from this message board. If you don't like how she performs now then don't watch. She's given us 30 years of crazy live performances, isn't that enough? You know she's human right? Age is a process nobody can escape, some grace would be nice.

Dress (112,298) by Zachariah from Croatia
Of course it was her dress. Everybody knows that since that year. How did we even come to this topic? I read only sporadically few posts and some of you went of the rails for sure. I can't wait for Christmas time and just enjoying the music.

Mariah set to re-enter Billboard Hot 100 earlier than ever (112,297) by jaker20 from US
Just as I expected: her new studio album releases helps her Christmas catalog, but it won't be the other way around. Just like how Caution pushed a huge boost to AIWFCIY before it hit no.1 the year after.

Alzheimer's (112,295) by Lighty from China
I didn't say she definitely had Alzheimer's though, that was not my final conclusion. I'm not even close to being a doctor. In my original post I said not sure if her stiffness/forgetfulness is because of menopause or heavy meds (of bipolar?) or maybe those were early signs of Alzheimer's, etc. Just some speculations. I hope Mariah gets better medical treatments and I wish for her to be healthy, live long and prosper. And after this Christmas, no more tours for a long long time.

Dress (112,294) by Lambi from USA
You're correct. She did mention they had a whole police escort to get the dress delivered just in time. But I wouldn't take that as a definitive sign of Alzheimer's. It's actually really common in the industry for costumes to be finished at the very last minute, sometimes even seconds before a show. If you asked her about the 2005 AMA performance, she could easily confirm that her dress was being sewn right up until showtime, because she was just performing by herself.

But both hers and Whitney's dresses were both done by Vera Wang, so I can see why she might be mixing up which dress was late, because there's two of them that had to be styled.

Truthfully though, I think Mariah wanted to have the better cut of the dress so she possibly asked the designer to edit it last minute. Again, no basis on this but it's just something I totally see her doing.

Dress (112,292) by Matty from Vancouver Canada
Whitney's dress was the one that arrived late. Just like Diana Ross's for the Divas Live performance. Whitney and Diana have also told the same story.

Dress (112,291) by Edward from USA
There's an interview from about seven years ago on MTV TRL where she talks about working with Whitney, and they mention the whole dress situation. She says she isn't sure whether it was her dress or Whitney's that arrived late, and someone on her team reminds her it was hers. In that interview she's completely present and articulate, she was promoting "Caution" at the time, so I don't think her not remembering that detail recently has anything to do with Alzheimer's or her meds. It just seems like one of those things she genuinely forgets whenever it comes up.

Was Mariah's dress really the one that arrived late? How do you remember that? The Memoirs?

Alzheimer's (112,289) by Xavier mariohmix from Spain
I agree with you and Joachim as well. It seems like either she doesn't really care at all how she's being seen, or she's not actually aware of it (although I highly doubt it, sung a la "Play This Song" jejeje). There are some hints here and there in the interviews that indicate that her head is not clear and her mind is kind of slow.

Alzheimer's (112,288) by Edward from USA
I don't think it's Alzheimer's, it seems more likely to be the effects of her bipolar meds. What's troubling to me is that no one in her circle seems willing to say, "Hey girl, something seems off. You look sedated on stage, maybe talk to your doctor about adjusting your meds."

On "Nothing Is Impossible", she sings: "Seemed like I'd never rise again, surely I couldn't find a friend." Those two lines confirm something I've always felt, that Mariah doesn't really have people around her who can be both supportive and honest, a true friend who could tell her hard truths because they care. Instead, it seems like she's surrounded by cheerleaders and "yass queens" who are more worried about staying in her good graces and keeping their checks rolling in rather than actually looking out for her well-being.

Don't take it political (112,287) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands
I think enough has now been said about the new "It's Time" video and the political backlash it's generating. This discussion gets out of hand, resulting in swearing and other unwanted behavior. That's why I've decided to stop posting on this topic.

Enjoy the music, but criticize some of her choices. I say the same about MJ. I love his music, but I don't stand by some of the things he has done. We must separate the art from the person.

Promo video (112,284) by Dave from USA
I will never understand how any other celebrity can have a product, business, or hustle where they are seen as an amazing businessman/businesswoman, yet the moment Mariah Carey does it, she is just greedy for money or insensitive to this or that.

This is the same thing she does every year for her brand at Christmas, and there are actual people going out of their way to be offended by a video announcing the start of the holiday season.

I'm not sure how it is now Mariah Carey that ruined lives and created the environment in our country where people are going through hard times. All this is completely ridiculous.

Don't take it political (112,283) by BFF from United States
Yeah, and do the people of your "region" have anything to say about the treatment of women and LGBT people? As much as I disagree with Israel's actions and the US government's financial support of Israel, I think the countries surrounding Israel are guilty of very similar human rights abuses (or worse) against their own populations. Over 90 percent of Palestinians believe that gay people should be thrown in prison and/or put to death. Sorry, but as a gay man, I will not go out of my way to "support" the human rights of people who think I should be executed or imprisoned for simply existing.

The arrogance (112,282) by Bill from the UK
They were referring to the “It’s Time” video, not the Israel and Palestine situation. It’s a sponsored video made in the spirit of fun, not a political statement on a genocide. Pull yourself together.

The arrogance (112,281) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway
This has been my concern for a long time now, I actually think Mariah is in the early stages of Alzheimer's. It can happen this young, and if this is the case, we really need to appreciate her while we still got her, in some years, she probably will be held back from the public eye, like Bruce Willis. Of course, this is only speculations, but the signs are there.

Just like you to be dismissive. That's what makes you arrogant and heavily disliked by some of us. You're not alone though but I'm tired of naming names, they know who they are. Keep streaming and stick your head back in the sand while people suffer unnecessarily. Cheers, not

Clearly some of these people missed the over 7 million Americans, and countless others around the world that joined in on the No Kings march recently. Caring for social justice is not for everyone. Some are just not cut out or built for it. Enjoy your holidays though.

Have a free correction for your benefit: distinguish between the fact that while, perhaps you are not "that deep", the matter at hand is most certainly "that deep". You and Mariah will soon see more clearly. Now, "cheers, cheers, cheers".
