Re: If it was me (87,658) (87,661) by Edward from USA Oh Randy, you should too leave this board. Remember Mariah is eternally 12, vulnerable, helpless and in a bubble. She couldn't tell cocaine from weed. Maybe they put that stuff in a hookah or something, and she thinks she's inhaling fun stuff. Da Brat, that's the evil, she revealed Mariah had breast implants on the remix for Heartbreaker without Mariah's consent when she rapped: "Guess who's back in the mothereffing house, with two big old tities for your mouth." Wait a minute, I just had an epiphany: Definitely the Illuminati is out there to get Mariah. According to YouTube videos, if you're a freak, they don't want you. Maybe Mariah has behaved freaky videos so they wouldn't do to her what they did to Whitney. If a video of Mariah engaged in an orgy surfaces, we must watch it carefully but never judge. We all must remain positive and watch the video with caution. (Monday 21 January 2019; 16:33)

Re: Random thoughts (87,630) (87,660) by Terna from Nigeria I love your point of view on Stella and her reign of terror. I too was one of those who did not judge her off just photos alone, it was too early for that. I was waiting for her to prove herself managing Mariah, something she didn't live up to and everything went south from there. However, I don't agree with you on the Brett Ratner statement that he doesn't make good videos for Mariah. That's simply not true, "The Emancipation Of Mimi" era alone had him to thank for some of her best videos up to that point. He also directed "Touch My Body" which basically saved that era and I dare say it's up there with "Honey" in terms of quality. (Monday 21 January 2019; 15:15)

Re: Thimothée Chalamet in "Giving Me Life" music video (87,657) (87,659) by Shezz from Pk Thanks. (Monday 21 January 2019; 14:56)

Re: If it was me (87,656) (87,658) by Randy from USA Bill, I couldn't have said it better myself. I kinda want the video to come out, whatever it is, to smash this eternally 12, obsessed over lighting, excuses for voice, all about the ensemble image that she's been clinging to for awhile. A former board member and I were talking about her interview on The View in 2005 whereas she was classy, smart, lucid, humble, beautiful and a star. I want that MC back. And if this is the reality check that will force her to see a 49 year old, mother of twins, icon when she looks in the mirror, hey I'm here for it. I don't want anyone to be humiliated or sad but sometimes ego and pride are monsters that don't disengage on their own. And what's funny is to watch board members here blame the people filming MC in compromising positions and not the superstar in front of the camera. It never ends. (Monday 21 January 2019; 14:19)

Re: Thimothée Chalamet in "Giving Me Life" music video (87,655) (87,657) by Lara from Middle East In the show they ask each guest what is their song for several categories: song to dance to etc. "Giving me life" was the song he chose for the "guilty pleasure" category.

Re: If it was me (87,654) (87,656) by Bill from the UK Whatever happens, happens. Mariah made these choices and she will need to own them. Part of me thinks she should let it all out, and then humble herself by admitting what she did was wrong (if it's as bad as has been implied), and then use that to start a clean slate and make some positive changes in her life. Bring her back down to earth a bit. She's human and makes mistakes. Everybody deals with consequences from their actions eventually, and it can't be healthy for her to forever be looking over her shoulder and having NDAs coming out of every orifice. My advice: air everything so her enemies have no ammunition, take back the power, stop masquerading behind a false projection of yourself. Be honest about who you are and where you are now (including your voice). As with the bipolar announcement, the fans won't turn their backs on you, and you will always be loved and cherished.

Re: Thimothée Chalamet in "Giving Me Life" music video (87,650) (87,655) by Shezz from Pk Saw this on Instagram the other day and loved it. Can some French speaker translate what was happening here? Seems like they were making him guess the singer. Interesting that they played that song for it. It's such a bop. (Monday 21 January 2019; 03:45)

Re: If it was me (87,649) (87,654) by Dove from United States MusicfanJ, I think we were all thinking that when the awkward Instagram pictures and videos were surfacing. It was a weird time for all of us. Whatever is on these recordings, I don't think it would be that damaging to her career. MC has a loyal fan base and the people who would have a problem are the people who don't buy her music anyway. I just hate the thought of the assistant making money off of things she stole from MC.

Re: Mariah sues personal assistant (87,632) (87,652) by Lila from United States It goes without saying that there would be some level of scandal. That can't be avoided should something of that nature exist and be released. Many A and B celebrities wouldn't be immune to that and many of them also do not have images akin to Cardi B's. I'd say Cardi more of an outlier than the rule. Classy is something many fans see Mariah as. I don't think that's the first word most of the general public would use unless referencing her 90's persona. So, I don't think that's anything to worry about in the sense that she'll be crucified because so many thought she was so classy these days. If another big name singer's performance on a big platform on NYE had gone as poorly as Mariah's had on NYE, a time of the year where there's usually not a lot of competition for headlines, they would've been big news too. That didn't have to do with high standards for Mariah but the nature of news and her being famous. Not to forget, she and her partner in crime were keeping the ball rolling with talk of suing DCP and them foiling her. Things would've blown over a lot sooner had they not egged it on. I think this would be similar to that. It would make headlines and be talked about because she is very famous and it would make for good gossip. People would talk, criticize, and joke but I think most of the public would chalk it up to yet another antic in a long line of ridiculous antics and eventually it would all blow over as long as there was no one egging it on.

Re: Mariah sues personal assistant (87,634) (87,651) by Andrew from London UK At least get the name right. And proceed with caution. (Sunday 20 January 2019; 14:56)

Thimothée Chalamet in "Giving Me Life" music video (87,650) by MC1989 from Spain One of my favourite actors and one of the world's most popular ones, Thimothée Chalamet, revealed he loves "Giving Me Life" and he even lip-synched and danced to the song on a TV program. If I was Mariah's manager, I would contact him immediately and ask him to appear in "Giving Me Life" video. He's super talented, young and very popular, so I would use his popularity and influence and release that song, which is a fan favourite, and Caution's most acclaimed song by the critics.

Re: If it was me (87,647) (87,649) by MusicfanJ from Germany "I think about people who are icons like Elvis, The Beatles, Marilyn Monroe." Paloma but that was a time where the internet and the smartphones didn't exist. That today a grownup global superstar like Mariah is so naive, I can't understand as much as I try to. I mean to hang out with trash people (her old team) and thinking it's ok, nothing will happen, I don't get it. The Instagram videos at that time were embarrassing enough. What was MC thinking? I mean we are talking about Mariah Carey not about a reality TV star. For me it's unbelievable, that she trusted Crustella and her clan. With Amy Winehouse, it was the worst. Because of the clips everybody could see the creeping decay of her as a person and artist. It was heartbreaking. Some videos should have never get public. (Sunday 20 January 2019; 12:16)

Re: A No No (87,644) (87,648) by Dove from United States I agree. I hate the countdown posts. (Saturday 19 January 2019; 23:53)

If it was me (87,647) by Dove from United States I always try to put myself in the position of "if it was me" and if I was a world famous celebrity and I was being blackmailed I think I would just go with it and embrace the narrative. I wouldn't let anyone blackmail me into concealing a part of me that is or was real. I think about people who are icons like Elvis, The Beatles, Marilyn Monroe, The Kennedy's; even recent ones like Amy Winehouse and Britney - what makes them interesting are the grittier parts that are embarrassing but also make them feel human to us. It's even better if they overcome, we all want to watch people be victorious. (Saturday 19 January 2019; 23:52)

Re: Random thoughts (87,639) (87,646) by Dove from United States The background of those videos look good but her face looks weird in them, like the film is stretched out. Infinity, CTTA, and #Beautiful too. (Saturday 19 January 2019; 22:22)

A No No (87,645) by We are Lambily from USA I don't know if it's true but a guy who has some kind of connection with Lil Kim said he heard the track with a couple of DJs and that Cardi B is on it. I don't hear it but apparently that video that leaked with the director "who is a hot deal since he is also working on Meek and Drake video for their single", some hear Cardi B but I did hear a whistle note. (Saturday 19 January 2019; 21:04)

Re: A No No (87,642) (87,644) by Shezz from Pk They're clearly keeping a tight lid on things with this remix. I hope it just drops one day out of the blue - video and all, instead of the usual countdown posts Mariah loves to do. It'll be exciting to see who all finally made the remix from Lil Kim, Cardi and Missy. Fingers crossed. (Saturday 19 January 2019; 18:37)

Re: Mariah sues personal assistant (87,634) (87,643) by anonymous from UK Wait, what have I done? (Saturday 19 January 2019; 16:45)

A No No (87,642) by B from USA Is Cardi featured on the remix or not? (Saturday 19 January 2019; 16:45)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey sues personal assistant (87,623) (87,641) by B from USA Right? I'm almost ceartin she's Stella's cousin. (Saturday 19 January 2019; 16:37)

Caution (87,640) by anonymous from UK Since Christmas and the whole festive period has thankfully left us (sorry to be a Scrooge, I just wasn't feeling it this season haha), I'm back to my usual routines, with an added guest - the album, Caution. I literally listen to it at least once a day. I loved it at first listen and it seems to get better the more I listen. The album length is perfect; I neither want more nor less, and it feels like a finished story by the albums close. It feels to me like a novel; the only other MC album I've felt that way about is Butterfly. And just like Butterfly, Caution is a novel I want to reread time and time again. Love it. To hell with charts, whether fans or MC herself cares about them, I don't give a damn anymore. I'll listen to what makes me happy or what I love, and Caution ticks those boxes and many more. I can't gush enough and I ain't sorry about it. (Saturday 19 January 2019; 16:33)

Re: Random thoughts (87,630) (87,639) by B from USA He directed I Still Believe, Heartbreaker, It's Like That, We Belong Together, Touch My Body, and Obsessed which are considered her best visuals. The only Ratner directed video that I hate is H.A.T.E.U. (Saturday 19 January 2019; 16:32)

Scandal (87,638) by anonymous from UK Whatever is on those tapes, I don't really care. That, however, is not the point. Whereas I won't judge or even give a damn what she does in private, the sanctimonious public-at-large who have never put a toe wrong in their lives will be baying for blood. I'm sure we all here have done things were aren't proud of or had dark periods in our lives. I'd rather we keep it loving forward as the past can't be changed. Those lawyers had better be on their A game, I don't wanna see Mariah dragged for her personal life, please can we concentrate on the incredible career? That comment is to the world at large not to the Archives family btw. (Saturday 19 January 2019; 16:28)

A No No features Cardi? (87,637) by Sheila from United States There is a clip from the video shoot on Instagram and it's a female rapper's voice but could not tell if its Cardi or Missy. It's coming. (Saturday 19 January 2019; 13:05)

Re: Mariah sues personal assistant (87,627) (87,636) by Bill from the UK Welcome back Chris the Psychologist. What a ridiculous post. We're talking about two people here across Mariah's entire team, both past and present. Plastic surgery is not the work of the devil, sorry to break it to you. (Saturday 19 January 2019; 08:55)
