Re: Lionel Richie - joint tour (69,973) (69,975) by RibbonB from USA They are actually advertised as co-headliners, so they will both put on a full set. Luther Vandross and Anita Baker did this back in the day and the show was full for each and epic. Major acts often tour together and give fans a lot of bang for their bucks.

Article: Two Billboard editors discuss the holiday show (69,974) by Malcolm from Asia That "No lip sync stuff" though lol, everyone knows it ain't true. Other than that, I love their review. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 18:13)

Lionel Richie - joint tour (69,973) by Tyler from USA I really wish they elaborated on this whole "featured guest". Will she be singing her own songs or joining him for some of his hits? I have to be honest, I have zero desire to see or hear him. I'm in my late 20's and can probably name only one of his songs. Mariah is in a unique phase in her career where her fan base is all over the place (which is great). I can't justify paying $100 plus if she plays a small part in this tour. I also been fortunate to see her this year in Vegas and The Beacon. I've been spoiled and really only want to see her in these intimate settings. This may be the first time I skip seeing MC in the states. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 17:08)

Re: Buzzfeed article (69,971) (69,972) by Carlos from Brazil I couldn't agree more. It is a must read for sure. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 16:40)

Re: Buzzfeed article (69,954) (69,971) by Edouard from France I totally agree. Probably the best article ever written about Mariah, the human being. Love the insight. Love how they analysed her without inventing stuff and how they "explain" her choices and where they are rooted. It's clearly written by someone who cares about her as an artist and as a person.

Re: Richie receipts (69,963) (69,970) by RibbonB from USA Of course it was a joke, thus my reply to Licia who seemed to get it. But he is an easy google for people who seem to be unaware of his actual status. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 14:39)

Two Billboard editors discuss the holiday show (69,969) by B from USA I adore these two. I can't believe this article was published by Billboard. I love that they highlighted that even though her voice has lost some power it is still amazing. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 14:28)

AIWFC (69,967) by Seth M from South Africa AIWFC is # 17 on the Billboard Hot 100. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 13:54)

Shawn shade (69,966) by RibbonB from USA So I see on twitter, Shawn is throwing a little subtle shade at James for selling off his Crown stake in China, since the arrest of his employees there. It seems Mr. Rich will be focusing his business in Australia and the big Vegas casino seems to be on indefinite hold too. He posted the story with the see and hear no evil emojis. This is a true story. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 8:56)

Re: Richie receipts (69,957) (69,963) by Seth M from South Africa Just a point of correction here. Lionel Richie is not the highest paid singer this year. That article is from mediamass.net and they also say that Mariah is the highest paid singer of the year here. Obviously someone has alot of time on their hands to create fake stories. According to the official Forbes website, it is Taylor Swift who is the highest paid female, earning $170 million dollars for 2016. That is not far off from Mariah's entire net worth and Taylor is still young. What I like about Taylor is the fact that she portrays a humble image and does not flaunt her money or try too hard to look sexy. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 5:36)

Re: Beacon (69,956) (69,962) by Tevin from USA This is going to be my first Mariah concert I'm going to, she better be on time, because some of us have to get up early for work the next day. Lol. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 3:21)

Re: Richie receipts (69,960) (69,961) by RibbonB from USA Hey we are on the same page. I just saw that report out this week and thought it timely to share it with the board. I am seriously thinking of going when they are in California. I would never ordinarily go see Lionel, but this one two punch should be fun. But yes his receipts are only a google away. Lol. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 2:21)

Re: Richie receipts (69,957) (69,960) by Licia from USA Now Ribbon according to lamb logic you know Mr. Richie is beneath being on the same tour as Mariah because he hasn't had a hit in a while. His whole career full of receipts doesn't matter. Lol. Anyway I still think it's win for both artists. He'll gain some new fans and she'll regain some old ones. How is this situation not a good idea? (Thursday 15 December 2016; 1:38)

Re: Beacon (69,956) (69,959) by Licia from USA Lateness all the time is inexcusable no matter who does it, but enjoy your night anyway. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 1:25)

Article: Mariah Carey forgets to put her eyelashes on properly (69,958) by Xavier Peoples from United States For once someone got Mariah's age wrong in her favor. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 0:54)

Richie receipts (69,957) by RibbonB from USA This just in Lionel Richie the highest paid singer this year. He is rolling in the dough from his tour and Vegas residency, etc. I'd say Mariah is lucky indeed to be invited to tour with him. He has done his homework, I hope Mariah studies well too. His material can be somewhat corny, but Mariah's can be too. Both are likeable, with timeless material. (Thursday 15 December 2016; 0:52)

Re: Beacon (69,950) (69,956) by Mara from United States Well I am in here now and it is apparent that the lateness is well known this year at Beacon. Totally different than 14-15. Last night was 9:06 and one night was 9:50 according to the staff. Ugh Mariah. Well for her tour with Lionel she better be on time. We know his fans will not tolerate it like some lambs that cast it off as "eh she is a diva". (Thursday 15 December 2016; 0:48)

Re: Stellar (69,951) (69,955) by SM from Citizen of the World I agree. (Wednesday 14 December 2016; 22:44)

Buzzfeed article (69,954) by Billy from Greece Impeccable article, fully capturing the essence of Mariah. (Wednesday 14 December 2016; 22:10)

Re: Roc and Roe school (69,945) (69,953) by Lannister from USA Obviously home-schooled. (Wednesday 14 December 2016; 21:25)

Re: The last time Mariah toured this much (69,940) (69,952) by B from USA I just hope she's not writing lyrics using slang she's picked up from Mishka and her friends. I'm kidding. Kind of. (Wednesday 14 December 2016; 19:51)

Stellar (69,951) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Major eyeroll. (Wednesday 14 December 2016; 19:09)

Beacon (69,950) by Mara from United States Well, on my way to NY for the show tonight. Here is to hoping Mariah is on time tonight. Praying actually. Will keep you guys posted. (Wednesday 14 December 2016; 18:44)

Re: 1969 or 1970? (69,935) (69,949) by Lannister from USA And still looking better than folks decades younger than her (see the Bey pic). Keep it moving. (Wednesday 14 December 2016; 18:10)

Stupidity (69,948) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Seriously Stella, how can you arrange a whole world tour and then not know that there will be time differences? This is what happens when you take up a management gig just to get the lifestyle. So darn thirsty. (Wednesday 14 December 2016; 17:03)
