Wendy on MW (69,149) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter She didn't go into details about what she thought about the show overall. But some points she mentioned. (1) Mariah doesn't sit, she lounges. (2) Mariah has diamonds for every occasion. (3) Mariah is in lingerie most of the time and Wendy thinks that's fine because if Mariah is confident enough then why not. (4) Wendy does not like Stella and thinks there is something opportunistic about her. She goes on to say that Mariah is so needy that she can't see through Stella's act. Seems like the lambs aren't the only ones who are hating on Stella. (5) She says Mariah seems to use her kids as decoration and doesn't come off as a great parent. That was a little harsh because the kids were hardly there for a few seconds. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 11:08)

Beacon ensemble (69,148) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ensemble compilation, haha only Mariah will sing OHN in a bodysuit and her twins out. Toy soldier outfit. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 11:04)

Re: Beacon Theater 12/5 (69,142) (69,147) by Licia from USA Thanks for the clips. This is exactly what I wanted on the VH1 holiday show. The link for Here Comes Santa Clause does not work. It says the Twitter page is no longer available. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 10:11)

Re: Mishka (69,128) (69,146) by Lara from Middle East Her other daugher is also named with masculine name, Sasha is diminutive of Alexander if I'm not mistaken. Maybe she doesn't speak Russian or she doesn't mind it as long as they sound feminine in English. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 9:29)

Re: Freak show (69,120) (69,145) by Terna from Nigeria Like that time you insisted the Grammies 2006 medley was lip synched at some parts but everyone here thought different and concluded it was 100% live right? Hmmn. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 9:22)

Re: Lipping and off you go (69,116) (69,144) by Terna from Nigeria Oh my? I hit a nerve now didn't I? With that defensive essay you babbled out saying nothing coherent and even being insultive, I'd say you're a tad bit too old for such childish behavior now aren't you? Smh. First of all my reading comprehension (Was that supposed to be a jab at my intellect? Try again because you failed.) is fine thank you very much. No one was talking about nodules but you were talking about lip synching which is why I called it to your attention, nodules could very well be the reason why she keeps lipping. It's not rocket science. "Unfounded assumptions" as you called it? Mariah Carey has nodules fact (all caps), her doctors, she herself and I think even her mum have confirmed it. Her voice has constantly kept changing with every era, fact. We aren't with Mariah Carey 24/7 (fact) so how do you know for certain she doesn't take care of her voice? Now that is an "unfounded assumption" as you put it. Because to me for someone who's had them her whole career, she still sounds great, and had to have been taking care of her instrument to be able to still tour, record and sing her 18 number ones back to back (Caesar's palace) seeing how difficult her repertoire is. Goodday Edward. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 9:04)

Beacon Shows (69,143) by Licia from USA Does anybody have any videos up anywhere? Tried searching on Twitter, but I came up with nothing and I'm too lazy to pull up YouTube (it's almost 2 am). I'm ignoring the VH1 thing. In my mind It didn't happen. Lol. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 8:52)

Beacon Theater 12/5 (69,142) by 123 from USA She killed it again. I love these live belts in Here Comes Santa Clause. Her belts sounded so effortless and clear. Of course the intro was great in JTTW. The vocal performance we all wanted on VH1 Divas. I do enjoy the toy soldier outfit. Say what you want and we may not all be happy with the crazy ride she's taken us lately but she still has it vocally. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 6:51)

SMH (69,141) by Hilton from USA Some of you on here really need to relax. The bickering and going back and forth is ridiculous and its behavior that really should reeled in. Come on, we all love Mariah. No one, including her, walking this earth is perfect. There's the good, the bad, the ugly, and the please delete that part of my life. Unfortunately, we will not always get what we want from her and that's okay. That's reality. She's not a puppet and we shouldn't expect her to be. Her artistry and choices she makes in her life and career should be respected and/or respectfully disagreed with, by all of us. That includes all of our opinions as well. Mariah is human and that's how I am looking at her. As a human being. I loved the first episode of her show and can't wait for the second. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 6:14)

Re: Mariah's World was (69,123) (69,140) by B from USA I think we might. I think the beach pics with BT were filmed for an ad or a music video. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 4:07)

Divas Holiday: Unsilent Night (69,138) by B from USA Mariah did ok. She sang some parts live and lipped others. It's wasn't one of her best and it wasn't one her worst. It was festive and lively. The residency and Sweet Sweet Fantasty tour have taught her how to own a stage and had increased her confidence in performing and her voice. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 4:02)

Re: Mariah's World (69,122) (69,137) by 123 from USA All I will say is there is no way Mariah would be dating either of them. It's just staged, fabricated tabloid fodder to promote the show and possibly get back at James if that relationship was even remotely real in itself. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 3:55)

Re: Mishka (69,128) (69,136) by Marissa from USA The same reason why people name their daughters Taylor or Jamie, or their sons Aubrey or Blair. A lot of people don't care much about having traditionally male or female names for their kids. Also, Stella is of Russian descent but she's from the USA, and in America any name that ends in the letter a is generally perceived as feminine, so it basically works out. Coming from that same American school of thought, it never occurred to me that that name could be masculine until you pointed it out. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 3:50)

Re: Mariah's world (69,112) (69,135) by 123 from USA Hi Liz. I noticed this as well. I came to the conclusion that Mariah really isn't that good of a business woman. She kind of goes with the flow and if the manager is incompetent, her projects suffer for it. I remember Brenda K. Starr's story on Wendy Williams during the Mimi era where Benny Medina dismissed her claiming he didn't know her and when she confronted Mariah about it instead of saying something like, "I'll make sure he is respectful to you" she was kind stayed in the middle so not to rock the boat with this new manager who was supposed to put her on top again. Other than Jermaine, I do believe most of the other managers were just collecting a check. I also believe that Mariah thought they would just take care of everything and all she had to do at this point of her career is present good music. She thinks Stella is competent because she has made Mariah money, but I do believe Jermaine would have done the same had she listened to him. It was his idea to do Vegas but she blew off the idea. In conclusion, Stella will only disappear when one her Mariah's projects fail. That's a patterned I've noticed from Mariah time and time again. So, I'm watching all this unfold in front of my screen and continuing to give Stella the side eye, I see you Stella. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 3:47)

Re: Two videos (69,121) (69,134) by G.G. from USA In my opinion, this entire situation (Stella, Mishka, Bryan, James, the ring, the inconvenience fee, the reality show, her enormous tig ol bitties being out constantly) is cringwortyhy. I can't believe this is the same woman, who's singing and songwriting, I have loved since the early 90's. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 3:16)

Re: I've seen enough (69,104) (69,133) by 123 from USA Marissa, you have to watch the show in order to get the answer to your question. I get some lambs feel it's beneath them or her to watch the show, but it really does reveal a lot. You can't judge if you haven't watched. It's not a bad show and it had a lot of good moments. There are staged moments like the assistant but I would put this along with all of the specials she has had. I would love for you to watch and get your review only because I would like to hear your opinion on things other than the staged moments. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 3:08)

Re: Mariah's world (69,127) (69,132) by Lila from United States The only difference between the old crew and Stella and co. is that she hides her ass kissing behind this fake girl empowerment BS. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 3:06)

Re: Mariah's World (69,105) RJJ12 (69,131) by Ty from USA Did you notice Anthony queen out when Mariah throws the diamonds against the wall. Fyi you know I pay no mind to goats lol. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 2:35)

Re: I'm living for Mariah's World (69,119) (69,130) by RibbonB from USA She was busy reading Mariah's contract, or rather prenup. I am a little curious to see how they unravel this tangled web they have woven. Stellar messed up big time in that she didn't "let" Mariah sign that commitment pre "nuP" because she wasn't yet divorced then, so it's lame to act like they had to rush a tour, rush plan a "wedding", when it would have only been a fake ceremony etc. So Stella messed up that 50 million someone was talking about. So tackily contrived, but apparently entertaining. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 2:27)

Amazing: Mariah's World (69,129) by Matty from Vancouver Canada Mariah's World: Love. Not sure what there is to hate about this. As a general assessment it's one of E.'s most well produce programs, ever. Mariah isn't pulling the one diminutional diva bit and she's hilarious AF. JLT: Job long time, is a hilarious moment. My only question what the hell was that cardigan Molly was wearing? Seriously, a gun motif on a Cardi. MmmK. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 2:12)

Mishka (69,128) by Dennis from Miami, FL Why did Stella have chosen that name for her daughter? Mishka is a word of masculine gender in Russian. Can mean diminutive of male bear or a teddy bear. But still it's masculine. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 1:33)

Re: Mariah's world (69,118) (69,127) by RibbonB from USA Very true and she can't know that Stellar is any more trustworthy, just because she is a constant kiss ass. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 1:19)

Re: Two videos (69,121) (69,126) by RibbonB from USA Hey Mimi L. Please link any footage of Roc and Roe from the show if there is any, that's all I want to see. Lol. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 1:06)

Re: My "Infinity" re-edit (69,076) (69,125) by Nicky from Jasmine's Sofa Thank you. (Tuesday 6 December 2016; 1:06)

Surprised by Mariah's World (69,124) by Martyn from England, UK I was pleasantly surprised by Mariah's World. British reality TV is quite different to American (much slower paced, longer scenes, not as much backing music etc.) so when I took that into account and got used to how chaotic it seemed at first, it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. Mariah came across quite funny and there were only a few toe-curling moments (i.e. the "assistant" casually slipping in that she just got a job with Mariah Carey as if it would be a shock to her boyfriend whilst the entire thing was being filmed by a camera crew - horrendously staged). One thing that did get on my nerves was Stella trying to steal the show and constantly licking Mariah's arse, but other than that, I'm actually quite looking forward to the next episode.
