Re: VH1 (78,478) (78,487) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter He should also watch the ILT performance for VH1. Where she wore that bright orange gown and how she owned the stage that night. She basically just strutted around but she owned it. That performance was amazing and full of energy. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 11:33)

Re: VH1 (78,482) (78,486) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter There, there Andrew dahlin', it'll be alright. Side note, I get your frustration but I gave up investing my energy over these messes. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 11:31)

Re: VH1 (78,478) (78,485) by MusicfanJ from Germany I love the song and the video of "Just be good to me". Mariah looked so cool with the hat and the casual outfit. So sweet when she does the little moves. It is just authentic, and that's what I miss the most lately. But Bryan really seems to be the closest for the moment, but if that is helpful? We'll see.

Re: Hero music video (78,474) (78,484) by MusicfanJ from Germany That's the Mariah I've always loved. She never needed a show. Standing there with her beauty and gorgous aura with the voice of an angel was more than enough. I remember when Britney came out as a teen star. I thought, poor girl she needs to dance all the time because she can't sing. Lol. A lot of entertainers need a big show and it's ok and can be fun. But Mariah was a wonder just to look at her and her the beautiful voice. I've seen her live on tour three times, and the moments where it was quiet and she was just "standing there" were the best. She needs a magic back, her MC style and most of all her confidence. She was always shy, but she rocked so many times with it. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 11:15)

Re: Mamariah (78,475) (78,483) by Licia from USA She was probably talking about me Mara with my Tanaka comment. I can't stand him. It's hard for me to hide it. Lol. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 11:15)

Re: VH1 (78,457) (78,482) by Andrew from UK Bryan doesn't push Mariah enough? You mean across the stage? Mariah is a [censored] [censored] [censored] beast of a woman the like of which has never gone before her in the position she is in. She is unique. The only globally best selling artist and icon who actively is pathetic in everything that she does in recent memory. She is, without question, a singer who can no longer sing, and a performer who can no longer perform. Judging by her recent efforts, she is a writer who can no longer write. And no, I won't just give it up and crawl away, I invested much of my life and a shit load of money in her. I'm going to cry about it until the cows come home. I speak for many people who are fed the [censored] up with how [censored] she is and how offensive she is. "I love my fans." No you don't. Mariah, you love money. You never really finished the Moët, did you? (Thursday 21 September 2017; 08:30)

Re: Mamariah (78,470) (78,481) by yiorgos from Germany , Berlin I agree so much. I mean for sure many things are going wrong lately and even her she doesn't really seem to be good and happy. I don't say be delusional but we should know better than the haters how insecure and fragile Mariah is and judging her and putting all those expectation on her makes us part of the problem. Many things should be different but we can't know all the reasons that things are how they are. It's really easy for us to say fire Stella or this or that but we don't live her life and we don't know her reasons. I get disappointed sure but I prefer to stay supportive to her because she has already given us more than anyone would expect all those years, and I am thankful for that. Sure I hope she will be at her best soon (and she has proven she can rise from her ashes) but until then I hope for the best and still support her and love her hopping that she knows she will always have the lambily to count on. She has been through a lot since an early age and the last years again. She has some superhuman abilities but she is still a human and we should give her a break even when it's sad and disappointing and even embarrassing, being on the spotlight for all those years is not easy. I hope she can go and use her talent in songwriting and creativity to heal her self. But with all that pressure on her for another hit and to prove she is still Mariah I don't think will be easy.

Re: Occult (78,469) (78,480) by Andrew from UK Satan? God? You really are a cracker short of a picnic, aren't you? Satan? [censored] me. What's next? Labelling children as witches? No crackers for me today, no Sir. Totally mental. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 08:23)

VH1 Hip Hop Honors (78,479) by darrian liu from taiwan If this was any other artists, I would say that it wasn't too bad of a performance. But this is Mariah we're talking about. She lost her touch already. Vocals were decent, but she could do better. Pretty much there's nothing really standing out in that performance. She just has no motivation to perform anymore. Let's just wait for her next album and pray that it's not gonna be half-assed. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 07:43)

Re: VH1 (78,455) (78,478) by Susana from USA We should bombard Tanaka with this SOS video so he can see what she's capable of. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 06:55)

Re: Is Queen Mariah ready to retire? (78,454) (78,477) by jaker20 from US She can just produce newcomers or mentor young artists, rappers etc. What happened to that new record label? She also got a yuletide movie. She's got millions, so she should do more of those. She will find new and real inspiration while supporting young artists, and/or making movies. That will spark new ideas for her. I always thought MC is a pop genius but she needs to be really inspired. Right now she's stuck. She needs to step away from performing these old songs, she can't hit the notes and sounds awful. Her image is so bad now. She reminds me of Bruce Jenner, one of the greatest athletes ever. Younger people don't know Bruce, but they know Caitlyn. That will be Mariah's direction if she's not careful. Once legendary, now a joke. BTW I just saw Cher on a Gap commercial singing Everyday People with Future. Cher is 71, doesn't dance, but performed at this summer's Billboard Awards because she put an effort. Fans and the media loved it. Far from perfect vocals but it was live. Mariah doesn't need to retire, she just need to refocus her efforts. But what do I know? (Thursday 21 September 2017; 02:49)

Stop crying (78,476) by Ryan from USA We are good at attacking and critiquing Mariah because she doesn't live up to what we individually think the expectation is that we created but when we are all having a bad day we are quick to turn her music on to make us feel better. Find your proprieties people. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 02:26)

Re: Mamariah (78,470) (78,475) by Mara from United States I'm not sure who you are referring to here, but just in case it was me, I'll take a stab at it and say I simply mentioned Tanaka in reference to whipping her into shape. Right now, he seems to be the closest to her and he is physically fit along with being a dancer. Therefore, it's natural to wonder or make him the go to inspiration or get her into wanting to get into shape. We have seen it before with Mariah, that the people around her often rub off and or influence her. That was all I meant by my comment. If you read my post, I was actually thinking of other things that can possibly going on with someone who is human like the rest of us but just so happens to be a legendary diva at the same time. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 01:29)

Hero music video (78,474) by J from USA A lot of the fans are missing the point. Who is expecting Mariah to dance? I've never had. I want everyone to look at the Hero music video, she didn't move an inch but yet the whole crowd was mesmerized because of that voice, that voice itself had stage presence alone. What I'm trying to get a lot of you to understand is for the past decade Mariahs stage presence went extinct. She has none whatsoever. Like I swear she literally has someone in her ear monitor telling her where to look, where to walk, etc. Half the time she performs she looks like she is in space, mentally checked out. She really needs to look at her earlier performances to at least recapture the magic she once had on stage as well as the command. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 01:20)

Re: Just to say... (78,468) (78,473) by Licia from USA Lol. Bill of course it had to be you. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 00:59)

Re: She's completely lost it (78,424) (78,472) by BLEUX ROGUE from U. S. A. Thank you. I love her so much but I agree 100%. She's lost her luster and her legend diva icon status is tarnishing thanks to Stella. She needs a five year go away vacation. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 00:35)

Mamariah (78,470) by tracey from australia Ah. Mariah hate all over on here, Bryan hate all over, you all know what she should be doing, what she shouldn't be doing and have the answers to her never ending career like you have been in the business for life, but you know what she doesn't care, he doesn't care and neither of them know any of you. (Thursday 21 September 2017; 00:23)

Re: Occult (78,467) (78,469) by Terna from Nigeria Bluex if that was the case, that Satan could give people a voice like Mariah's there would be a thousand females with her voice, talent and songwriting skills now won't there? But we all know better. Sorry to discredit your information source but that's a load of b.s. Lol. Only God can give such talent that would be one in infinity. Same with Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Diana Ross etc. People have way too much time on their hands these days. (Wednesday 20 September 2017; 23:45)

Just to say... (78,468) by Bill from the UK Migrate should have been a single. Sorry, it's just it has been a while since anyone said that. Carry on. (Wednesday 20 September 2017; 23:21)

Occult (78,467) by BLEUX ROGUE from U. S. A. I've heard these stories many times before about Mariah's mom being a satanist. How she sold Mariah's soul to Satan in exchange for her "vocal abilities" and fir fame and fortune. Many say the devil came for payback, didn't get it and MC is now paying for a debt not paid. A once stellar career in shambles, losing her once pristine voice to sound mediocre etc etc. who knows. Stranger things have happened. (Wednesday 20 September 2017; 23:02)

Mary J. Blige - What's the 411? remix (lyrics) (78,466) by Billy from Greece I never noticed the lyrics before (Biggie's part): "I'd probably go to jail for [censored] Patti LaBelle. Ooh Regina Belle, she'd probably do me swell. Jasmine Guy was fly, Mariah Carey's kinda scary. Wait a minute, what about my honey Mary?" (Wednesday 20 September 2017; 22:56)

Re: Is Queen Mariah ready to retire? (78,452) (78,465) by RibbonB from USA She only seems to be done with her former quality musical career and she seems to have settled for a shallow, lazy reality show level of fame. (Wednesday 20 September 2017; 22:35)

Re: Article: Mariah is stiff as a board in Hip Hop Honors performance (78,460) (78,464) by May from Denmark She is neither 80 years old having a cane or obese. She is chubby but not fat, she is not even 50 yet. Surely she can do one, two, three steps. The annoying thing is that she looked great, the stage was nice with the dancers and the theme, loved the jet ski and the helicopter props (which were hardly used), she sang well even if it was pre recorded or truly live or with some lippy, it was good nonetheless, but all that was overshadowed but her standing, being held and walked around few steps. All the headlines and the fans noticed that. I hope she takes this as a wake up call and we can move on to better times. I'm hoping that new music might eclipse all these underwhelming performances. I thought that while somewhat weak "Infamous" sounded good, "I don't" had something going on for it, very catchy, would have loved a dark video like that photoshoot she did where she sits in the throne with the masked men, the video we got was meh, and her last mix with Montana was pleasant. I believe she still can produce and write good tunes, I don't think she is very invested in it, her life right now seems weird, Tanaka, the kids here and there, that clan of troll looking women, what up.

Mariah 1990-2010 (78,463) by T from USA These 20 years were the golden years of MC. Part of me wishes she stepped away fully after MCIIY. Had her children and came back for her 25th anniversary to re-release #1's (with #Beautiful and Dedicated as the bonus tracks) and that's it. It would've been a storied ending to her career. Now year by year she's earasing everything she worked so hard for. (Wednesday 20 September 2017; 20:23)
