Re: So... (68,504) (68,539) by Warrior Butterfly from USA Emotions has always had a jazzy feel to it especially tracks like Till The End Of Time. (Monday 21 November 2016; 22:27)

LM Lifestory (68,538) by RibbonB from USA Wow they are doing Luis M.'s life story for TV. I wonder if Mariah will be depicted and who will play her part. This should be somewhat interesting. (Monday 21 November 2016; 20:43)

Re: Nick (68,535) (68,537) by RibbonB from USA No you tried it, keep trying, though. Your're comprehension skills are marginal at best when you don't understand the joke was on you and your comments about kids out of wedlock, I thought I would just throw the fornication line out there for you. They are both grown and can do as they please, but Mariah is intentionally keeping her mess in the tabloids. So have several seats. (Monday 21 November 2016; 20:38)

Spotify doesn't have (68,536) by Warrior Butterfly from USA The glitter album. (Monday 21 November 2016; 19:10)

Re: Nick (68,529) (68,535) by Mirage_Nunez from America Chile bye. You tried it. I can't with you anymore. You are team Nick and you know it. This statement "this is not the 1950's and just like Mariah could live with a man during her divorce and may or may not fornicate, so could Nick date and have sex" along with many many other comments you've made sounds extremely defensive, but I digress. You can dare to spew bias hypocrisy when it comes to MC and Nick, however it discredits your stance as the moral police of Mariah's life. Tough turbans and illegitimate children.

Re: Article: Mariah Carey recording breakup album after split (68,533) (68,534) by RibbonB from USA Foolish, Circus, Pop Kisses and Didn't Even Flinch are actually interesting as titles though, lol ijs. But jokes aside, I agree with those who say it's time for upbeat dance music. Some good mid tempos would be great. I just listened to Luther's Never Too Much. I love the fun mid tempo timeless vibe of the song. (Monday 21 November 2016; 17:29)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey recording breakup album after split (68,527) (68,533) by Lila from United States The tracks will be epic for that album though. "I upped and foolishly moved my kids to California full time so that my unsure thing could be closer to his kids who he's never seen with." "James was in my heart but not enough for me to give him more than half-assed pop kisses that he should've been grateful for." "I dragged my circus with us to every 'date' but he should've been grateful to just be in my presence." "I put up with his prepubescent, never seen a woman body groping and deserve $50M just for that." "He didn't flinch when I almost fell down the stairs of his yacht but I stuck by his side anyway." "Don't get it twisted, unlike Nick, I didn't make him wait. I was just never gonna have sex with him." Lol. Seriously though, I hope the story isn't true because I don't know what Mariah could actually make a break up album about. She barely knew the man, they were hardly together, and she herself made a lot of blatant bad decisions in regards to this man. She just needs to let this die. (Monday 21 November 2016; 16:55)

Re: Thank [...] Nadia from USA (68,500) (68,532) by Edouard from France Let's keep this post alive. Yeah. (Monday 21 November 2016; 15:59)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey recording breakup album after split (68,530) (68,531) by Licia from USA Lol. What you said about the ups and downs of a relationship makes sense. I can totally see that story with MIAM. If that had been the explanation of the album I would have gotten the sequencing. That R. Kelly mix was a huge disappointment for me. You have two people who can write the hell out of a song come together and that's what we get? I expected more from the both of them. (Monday 21 November 2016; 15:25)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey recording breakup album after split (68,527) (68,530) by RibbonB from USA Lol your MIAM rundown was hilarious. I guess she was showing the ups and downs of relationships. Perhaps she thought that this is my last shot to release these Memoirs remixes and just threw them in. I still say she could have kept that R. Kelly remix though. I can't unhear that one to my regret. (Monday 21 November 2016; 14:15)

Re: Nick (68,525) (68,529) by RibbonB from USA My point still stands and if you had read my posts clearly you would see I said he and anyone else should wear protection when dating, that is not defending him. But if someone says something that is not correct or easily debatable then I might reply just as you might. But do yo and I will dare say what I want to say, so tough "tig old bitties". (Monday 21 November 2016; 14:06)

Mariah Carey x Mac Cosmetics (68,528) by Malcolm from Asia I'm glad everyone loves her Mac collaboration, like it's beyond. They are all saying that it looks like really a luxury item. That whole packaging is so beautiful as well. I think this is the first review for her collection that is out there. (Monday 21 November 2016; 12:18)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey recording breakup album after split (68,519) (68,527) by Licia from USA I'm not sure I would want a full "This Mother Sucker Dumped Me and Now He Won't Give Me My 50 Million" album. I would want a mixture. Kind of sequenced in the way MIAM was supposed to be by telling a story , but making more sense. MIAM went from she was sad, to she was in love, then she was mad, then she was sad again, and then she found Jesus. Then at the end she was proud of America and then she was mad again with the Memoirs tracks lol. (Monday 21 November 2016; 8:33)

Re: So... (68,513) (68,526) by Licia from USA There really isn't much to talk about besides the mess. There's no new music. I'm not excited seeing her partying with Dr Khaled, LA Reid, or Future. That does not necessarily mean they are working on music. She could be using them in a hip hop version of Miracle on 34th Street for all we know (it could happen lol). I'm not into the makeup line because I don't really wear it and I'm not buying any of it just because it's Mariah. (I'm not knocking her hustle though. I completely understand and approve this money move.) I'm pretty much over talking about her fashion choices and twins (not the kids lol). I wasn't personally invited to any of the dates on the tour or to Vegas so I don't want to talk about either of those situations lol. Not watching MW because of the mess. What else is there to talk about? Let me call Roc and Roe to see what they're up to. Lol. (Monday 21 November 2016; 8:19)

Re: Nick (68,511) (68,525) by Mirage_Nunez from America But who said it was Nick's board though? Certainly not me. I'm not the one bringing him up either, nor am I am implying that you should bring him up whenever he does something. My sole point is when he is brought up on here (by whoever) you (and a few others) always run to his defense and try to justify his wrongs with retorts about Mariah. Yes Mariah is a mess for flirting with her backup dancer while engaged to James. I can admit that, but you can't admit that Nick is a mess for impregnating a women he doesn't want to be with or the name dropping he's done, or that he more than like does "sleep with employees" (the Wildin Out Girls) etc. Since the divorce some of you have expressed so much contempt and resentment towards Mariah as if Nick did nothing wrong and was a perfect angel. The way he's defended maybe you should start a Nick board. Anyway my point still stands, fairly hold people accountable for their actions. That's it. No more dead horses beaten. (Monday 21 November 2016; 8:08)

Re: New pics (68,512) (68,524) by Lila from United States From what I've seen of the pics of her at this event, she left that horrid "engagement" ring at home. Let's hope we'll get repeat performances of that. (Monday 21 November 2016; 2:32)

Re: Makeup collection (68,514) (68,522) by Lila from United States I remember that. I watched the HSN segments lol and much of it was cute. I was just thinking a bigger venture and maybe something more high end this time around, and something long term (then again she could've kept designing stuff for HSN too). She wants money to be coming in so she needs to have assets that are going to make that money. So many avenues to travel, that would garner her good press, before going the reality tv route. (Monday 21 November 2016; 1:29)

Re: New Pics (68,512) (68,521) by RibbonB from USA Now if they really want drama in Mariah's World they should put Nicki on her show for the Idol showdown. She is supposed to have a show coming out also produced by Stellar and crew. Isn't it strange that we hear nothing about that show. I think Nigel telegraphed months ago that they might do something. Here is the article where Nigel referenced Nicki. (Monday 21 November 2016; 1:16)

Re: New Pics (68,512) (68,520) by RibbonB from USA Wow, LA Reid is the littlest one there, overseeing his acts. (Monday 21 November 2016; 1:14)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey recording breakup album after split (68,517) (68,519) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter "Portrait of a Lonely Songbird... On the Yacht of Broken Dreams", BIll, I just can't with you. Is it bad that I actually want her to go about the more happy route with music now and release more up-tempo songs that people can have a good time to? Don't get me wrong, I'm completely here for signature Mariah ballads but her last album was kinda like a break up album so I want the next to be more of a return of the confident, independent, fun loving woman. A blend of TEOM and E=MC2. To balance out the sorrow and joy. Either that, or go straight up "Butterfly". (Sunday 20 November 2016; 23:56)

Re: Makeup collection (68,514) (68,518) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter She has a special blend of skin care products as far as I remember. She said someday she'll sell it. I too think it's fine for her to have side projects but stuff that are closer to who she is like Lila pointed out with the make up, lingerie and jewellery line. She can maybe also team up with a well known shoe company and have a shoe line out. I know she had one for HSN, but I'm talking about hi-fashion house brand names. (Sunday 20 November 2016; 23:45)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey recording breakup album after split (68,505) (68,517) by Bill from the UK I don't mind a breakup album, but it needs to be a real breakup album. Previously, breakup (caps) songs (end caps) have appeared on albums that have a heavy sprinkling of crowd pleasing pop (Heartbreaker/Petals, Honey/Butterfly etc.) for balance. A real breakup album is, I think, most affective if it is stripped down to the bare bones. No one would expect MC to put out a complete acoustic affair or a mellow jazz outing but, provided her image is toned down to match the record, it will make more of an impact that the usual R&B formula she's been churning out now for years. Drop the souped up vocals and do an intimate album without the polished sheen. It may not generate a radio hit but it will likely be a hit amongst fans and critics alike. But more than likely we'll get "Portrait of a Lonely Songbird... On the Yacht of Broken Dreams". (Sunday 20 November 2016; 22:15)

Why Mariah is the way she is (68,516) by JAXGH from United States In the beginning, Mariah was truly humble. And I feel she's the same to this day. I've listened to her 1999 The Lost interview, and the 2002, 60 minute interview, even her 2005 to 2008 interviews, there's always that bubbly, jokester Mariah. I think that her ways of showing how wealthy she is, is a defense mechanism honestly. Tommy probably shoved it down her throat, "you wouldn't own a dime, if it weren't for me". Now she keeps proving that she's rich, without him. Tommy made her career but also took it away from her. The media never left Mariah ever since 1997. When she released Glitter which Tommy has always been against her doing movies, also the very first time she released an album, not from Sony. That 80 million dollar deal was a slap to Tommy's face. Sadly it backfired to Mariah. Tommy put up a fight. He was determined to ruin her career. Glitter being a Sony picture release, he found a way to get a hold of the music and gave it to someone else. He pulled a string once again, before you know it the press is having the time of their lives, sabotaging Mariah. They always got away with it and to this day, they haven't stopped. Mariah was so under pressure, that there's no words you can even use to imagine the sh*t she was in, her career was on the line, the stress of the movie, having done the most expensive music contract of all time (people expecting it to be a hit), Tommy wanting her to fail, trying to prove herself as an independent artist, the sabotage, the exhaustion, the break up with Luis Miguel, that she literally almost freaking died. It was only then that it hit Tommy's conscience. Mariah could have been dead. That's [censored] up. It's a miracle she made it out alive from Tommy's revenge. And reading all these comments really makes me sad, this is the woman who literally put her life on the line for her fans, giving her heart and soul through the most intimate, personal, vulnerable way, her music. She's given us so much. Everything could've stopped at 2001. You guys realize that right? Mariah was so damn close to an untimely death. But the Lord favors her and has always been for her. I'm at the point where I am content. Charmbracelet, Emancipation, E=MC2, Memoirs and MIAM have been enormous blessings and I'm just thankful. If she wants to be girly, flirty, sexy, eat whatever, do a movie, do a tv show, do whatever type of record she wants, I don't mind. This is the girl that was forced to break up with her boyfriend at 18, wasn't allowed to collaborate with who she wanted, wasn't free to do the music she's really into, was forced to dress like someone who wasn't her in the first place, had her calls tracked down, was forced to sing a certain way, was obligated to work day and night, someone who didn't even truly experience the success of their prime (that now she forever longs for) and is still slandered and sabotaged heavily to this very day. You know I still wonder how things would have turned out if she chose Warner. Mariah was stifled on the most important period of her life (her prime), still suffers from her boss' wrath. If whatever she does make her happy, just let her be. At least she's living and making up for the life she missed. She did us proud with her music for 26 years, more than enough. Her legacy will always speak for itself. And I'm [censored] proud to be a fan, of one of the strongest, most talented, free-spirited, hard-working artist of all time. Miss Mariah Carey. (Sunday 20 November 2016; 20:15)

Re: Click like on this if you won't be watching MW (68,485) (68,515) by Andrew from UK Only just read your post in full. Your observations and opinions are sound about there being historical evidence as to her strange personality, the ego and vanity. During Make It Happen at Proctor's Theatre in 1993, Mariah bends over to kiss a little girl. You very briefly see her look up to see if the camera is on her. It made me think when I first saw it that the whole thing was staged, and that Mariah was more interested in making sure she got the shot than making a kid happy. Another example from VHS: "You really hit the big time now, Carrie" from Around The World was totally patronising and bitchy. I once wrote some posts theorising that perhaps Tommy, Walter and the team were trying to control Mariah because she had a wacko personality (that eventually came out, ruined her career and sent her into a breakdown) that was going to derail her career. It may be right, it may not be. But I think Mariah has just become more and more of herself to the point of being totally unlikeable. I am not saying Tommy was totally innocent, but I can't trust Mariah's relation of the story as she will rewrite anything for her own benefit, e.g., "of course I have to thank Tommy Mottola - particularly at the beginning of my career" is a quote from 1999 if I'm correct. She'd only just [censored] him off. He was responsible for almost every part of it until just before she said that (e.g. he arranged for and paid ODB a lot of money). It would have been like Celine Dion not crediting Rene Angelil - absurd. Like others, I like her music (well, most of it). I want to like her. But she's just so [censored] vulgar most of the time that I can't see any redeeming qualities and I'm looking hard enough. I predicted a major downfall not so long ago, and, well, this is the beginning of the end right here, isn't it? (Sunday 20 November 2016; 19:26)

Re: Makeup collection (68,499) (68,514) by RibbonB from USA Lila, you are forgetting about her Pave jewels on HSN. Some of her stuff was actually cute then. Didn't she say she had a special blend of hair care stuff she uses? It is probably so specific to her hair that it might not be universal enough for the general public though. (Sunday 20 November 2016; 17:26)
