Re: The Entertainer app (72,964) (72,969) by Will from England One could say that they're presenting alternative facts lol. (Monday 20 February 2017; 23:54)

Positive Mariah (72,857) by Will from England Here's a little video compilation of Mariah being positive to other artists both recently and a few years ago. (Saturday 18 February 2017; 16:58)

Re: Mariah's take on the Grammy's (72,809) (72,816) by Will from England I don't think she was talking about Adele or Beyonce's performances. I think she was commenting on how the Grammy results themselves are predictable now. You know Adele is going to win. You know Beyonce is going to win. It wasn't really the performances. What I am surprised about was how she brought up the Daydream snub, just as we are discussing it on this board, and not the awards TEOM could and should have gotten which in comparison was more recent (and relevant?) than Daydream. Why bring that snub up? (Friday 17 February 2017; 23:46)

VOL (72,764) by Will from England That performance is now on Jimmy Kimmel's YouTube account. Again, a good performance. She played it safe in some places, but she did well on the higher parts. If you don't like Mariah standing still, then I would strongly advise not watching the video and save us the grief of reading the knit-picking. (Thursday 16 February 2017; 23:34)

Jimmy (72,757) by Will from England Jeez, can't give her a break can you? When she finally pulls off a good performance on TV, and looks great, you call it boring because she stood still (I didn't see Adele running around during Hello at the Grammys yet people are calling it a good performance). When she has a train wreck performance, but had dancers, she was moving around the stage, feathers, you focus on her lipping/questioning her singing ability. People have been asking for a simple performance of her just singing, and she did just that. Yet people are never satisfied anymore. What's wrong with just standing still? Of course she would be nervous, considering what happened during the last performance. Anyone would. She ad-libbed nicely, sang the song without gimmicks, and ditched that gold mic at long last.

Re: New radio call in (72,501) (72,503) by Will from England Lol, she just slammed that phone down. (Saturday 11 February 2017; 15:37)

Re: Mariah Superbowl - setllist (like Diana Ross) (72,266) (72,276) by Will from England That's even funnier. You're telling me, that not one of the 778 million people who've watched the BR video, was not watching the Superbowl or were in that stadium? And that's just the video, not even counting the radio plays, performances, tours etc. of the other songs that Gaga sung. I love Mariah, but whilst she does have an impressive back catalogue which cannot be denied, she does not know how to put on a show that watchers of the Superbowl would expect now. Can you see her doing any of the things that would come up to par with the last few halftime shows? She's great when it comes to her own shows etc. but when it comes down to TV, something doesn't click and she plays it very safe. (Monday 6 February 2017; 18:32)

Re: Mariah Superbowl - setllist (like Diana Ross) (72,246) (72,256) by Will from England The General Public don't know Poker Face, Bad Romance or Just Dance? That's funny. (Monday 6 February 2017; 13:46)

I Don't (72,226) by Will from England So I've had a few days to process the song and have it on heavy repeat. And I love it. Ironically, the lyrics match a situation that I'm going through at the moment, so once again, Mariah has written a song that accurately talks about what I'm feeling right now. Good job. (Sunday 5 February 2017; 22:37)

Re: MW episode 8 : Mimi L review (71,790) (71,796) by Will from England Let's not forget that a huge section of the Mariah and James story is missing i.e. the fight on the yacht that occured between SA and Hawaii. Whatever happened on that boat, could be what Mariah refused to talk about on the show etc. and what she may or may not be talking about in the song snippet. (Monday 30 January 2017; 13:33)

Re: Nevermind, it's a bop (71,776) (71,778) by Will from England Personally, I thought it almost sounded as if she wrote it from both James' and her own perspectives rather than just hers. (Monday 30 January 2017; 10:44)

Social media (71,765) by Will from England I know she's on a self-imposed social media break, however it is strange that if there is a song to be released tonight/whenever, there's nothing more to go on other than the snippet we've all heard now. Literally no one knows if or when this song is to be released, is it an actual single, is there an album to follow, what the song is even called, single cover art etc. There has been nothing but speculation and all from one 30 second clip of Mariah singing. (Sunday 29 January 2017; 23:11)

Re: Here's the clip (71,708) (71,714) by Will from England Wouldn't surprise me if the clip we've all seen is part of the music video, you know? (Saturday 28 January 2017; 17:27)

Vodka (71,345) by Will from England Watching MW, and was wondering whatever happened with that vodka line? (Monday 16 January 2017; 15:43)

Re: Record label wants to put out new single (71,123) (71,129) by Will from England It wouldn't surprise me that Mariah has a clause somewhere in her contract, that they can't release any music with her name on it without her endorsement or support. And I'm certain that if they do release music, Mariah needs to fulfill her part of the contract, which is to promote it. Which would mean to sing live and go on media shows. The very things that are far from the forefront of her mind. (Tuesday 10 January 2017; 18:58)

Re: The Truth (70,665) (70,679) by Will from England There are photos of Mariah at sound check and dance rehearsals. (Tuesday 3 January 2017; 1:11)

Re: Mariah's impact (70,414) (70,427) by Will from England Not to take away what was a lovely moment, but isn't this the same fan who a while ago, posted about how he asked her to do all these things (follow him on social media/email him?), on top of giving her the diamond cross, and got mad because she didn't do it? (Thursday 29 December 2016; 22:06)

Re: MW episode 3 : Mimi L review (70,069) (70,074) by Will from England Great review. I did find it interesting how Mariah turned to the camera and asked "Who put me in charge of this?" which I found interesting because she's all of their boss, not Stella. So it should be Mariah who ensures that her team is working well, not Stella (who obviously has a temper and reacts aggressively without trying to resolve a problem first). Stella is the last person you want to try and resolve a conflict. I'm so done with Molly, I want her gone now. I feel sorry for her because it is so obvious that she's not right for this, she had delusions about what it would be like, and seems to have no intuition or self-awareness. Danielle is fantastic lol. (Monday 19 December 2016; 11:27)

Re: Tour question (69,845) (69,846) by Will from England Considering how she's headlining with another artist, it would be foolish and unprofessional of her to do so. If she is opening for Lionel, she can't just cancel at a drop of a hat. She's got obligations to another artist (contractually I'd imagine) that she would have to fulfil, despite whatever is going on in her private life. (Monday 12 December 2016; 22:52)

Bryan (69,690) by Will from England Watching MW at the moment, and I like how they portray that this is the first time Mariah and Bryan have seen each other since TAOM. The Triumphant performance anyone? (Thursday 8 December 2016; 23:43)

Re: Comeback (68,705) (68,712) by Will from England I have to disagree with your statement that Mariah has toured very little (recently I assume). She's been performing more or less consistently since the start of her Vegas show, had the successful SSFT run, Beacon shows, Hallmark special, private shows for various people, Essence etc. so this is most she has performed since forever on a consistent basis. Her voice, compared to that (capital letters) AIWFCIY performance and the beginning of TEC tour, is considerably better than what it was. It is 100%? Not really, it has its rough days but she's belting and experimenting with more confidence than she was. (Saturday 26 November 2016; 22:20)

Ellen (68,656) by Will from England I kinda somewhat get why she was less than willing to partake in a little game, no matter how harmless it was. As I recall, after Tommy, she was being linked to any guy that breathed, and right now she's being linked to that "I don't know the meaning of boundaries" dancer of hers, after a very public divorce and breakup. Of course no one is forcing her to hook up with any of them. But that's been a part of her since forever: she will refuse to pick one person over another, especially if she herself is friends with them, unless she doesn't like them. Ellen's show format isn't the place for a serious interview about her life. That's more reserved for a one-on-one setting, where she doesn't feel the need to pander to an audience. Could she have talked about anything else? Yes. But then again, Ellen didn't direct the interview in any particular direction, or bring up anything for Mariah to talk about or promote properly. It was literally Christmas, that photo, MW briefly, and WYR. It is Ellen's job as an interviewer to bring up topics, not just only Mariah. Whether Mariah answers or not is another matter altogether and when she was asked how she was, she did technically answer, then deflected when it became too uncomfortable.

Article: Mariah Carey gushes over "spectacular" boyfriend (68,492) by Will from England What a difference a year makes. (Saturday 19 November 2016; 22:22)

Article: Performers at this year's Rockefeller Tree Lighting (68,491) by Will from England You really, really think that after what happened in 2014, Mariah would want to go back? Lol. (Saturday 19 November 2016; 22:06)

Re: New pics (68,263) (68,267) by Will from England It's the most covered she's been all week. Whatever it is, I'm not complaining. (Saturday 12 November 2016; 18:43)
