VH1 loved the outfit/hair, the stiffness though (78,415) by Sheila from United States Why? Why does Mariah slay on the Lionel tour and Vegas but on TV she comes across as scared and stiff? 28 years in the game, come on hunnie. This could have been pure slayage (Tuesday 19 September 2017; 11:54)

Re: VH1 (78,412) (78,414) by Licia from USA I'm trying really hard to not say too much on that outfit. Not flattering at all. (Tuesday 19 September 2017; 11:31)

Re: VH1 (78,412) (78,413) by Licia from USA It wasn't so bad. I do wish she would have moved around more. As much as some of us dislike the Honey dance, you just can't really do the song without it. Never knew how much I needed her to do the dance until now. The prop boyfriend twirl makes sense after watching the full performance, but everyone knows how much he irks my soul so I refuse to say anything nice about him. Lol. I liked how she rearranged the song to fit current Mariah voice. I really enjoyed seeing The Lox, Brat, JD, and Mase. (Tuesday 19 September 2017; 11:28)

Re: VH1 (78,407) (78,412) by Lee from UK I hope we get to see Mariah move around the stage unassisted. I do not know why but I get really uncomfortable watching the dancers take her by the arms/elbows and lead her around the stage. (Tuesday 19 September 2017; 08:54)

Here's hoping (78,411) by Nikki from usa The first was promised as a true docuseries and opened to huge ratings. When she didn't deliver as promised ratings dropped like a rock. So, maybe she's doing it right this time? Also, I think some are coming at this from a wrong angle. MC had promised our South American lambs she'd be back, so this may be her way of getting back down there. Her first B.fly tour was only 13 dates, so it's possible this tour will only last a couple of months or less. If there's cameras on her again I guess this means she's getting back in shape, working on her vocals, and preparing the next great album by revisiting her Butterfly era. I loved her look of this time period. The gold goddess look. The mother nature color tones. I would love to see MC in the multi colored hair of her album sleeve with her smiling - it's one of my all time favorite pics of hers. (Tuesday 19 September 2017; 04:44)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey gets another shot at reality TV (78,402) (78,410) by Guangqi from China She'll ruin the legacy of that beautiful album. I'm so worried. She needs to rest, what's wrong with her manager? (Tuesday 19 September 2017; 04:37)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey gets another shot at reality TV (78,397) (78,409) by Lila from United States By show I hope they mean an hour and half to two hour long documentary special that focuses only on the tour. We don't need weeks long stupidity filled charades and even if the show focused on the tour only I don't want to tune in every week. But yes we were told that the last show was going to document an actual tour and all we got was f-ckery. I won't hold out too much hope for this one. (Tuesday 19 September 2017; 01:02)

Re: VH1 (78,407) (78,408) by Licia from USA Thanks for posting. Maybe I need to see the whole performance before I make too many comments. Right now I'm not impressed . She's just standing there and getting twirled by her prop boyfriend. (Monday 18 September 2017; 23:33)

VH1 (78,407) by Mara from United States I hope the link works. I found this footage from someone that was in the audience. (Monday 18 September 2017; 22:28)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey gets another shot at reality TV (78,402) (78,406) by MusicfanJ from Germany I also think it's enough with all the touring. I mean it's cool to have a "Christmas show" and the Las Vegas shows (because she could stay at one place) but she needs time to get her energy and spirit back. As an artist and musician she's not only a "working machine". She needs free time to get new ideas and I'm not talking about a perfume. MIAMTEC can't be the last album. But yes, it feels like she's tired of releasing an complete album. But I won't give up hope that there'll be another masterpiece. The reality is, it will take a long time, if she keeps her unprofessional management and lifestyle. But I'll wait for Butterfly 2.0. (Monday 18 September 2017; 19:35)

Re: Thoughts (78,398) (78,405) by Licia from USA My only hope is that she put in the work and actually performs. I definitely don't want her to get on TV doing the lazy dance like she did in Vegas. That was beyond embarrassing to watch. (Monday 18 September 2017; 19:18)

Re: Thoughts (78,398) (78,404) by TJ from Norway Spot on. Totally agree. (Monday 18 September 2017; 17:28)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey gets another shot at reality TV (78,399) (78,403) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter She did a press release to announce a new album. She has talked about it in multiple interviews. Which was surprising because 2 months before the press release, she said she will only release singles but I guess the label was having none of that. The label can't just have her doing nothing if she wants to be on their label. (Monday 18 September 2017; 16:02)

Article: Mariah Carey gets another shot at reality TV (78,402) by Edward from USA What's up with all this touring? When will Mariah disappear for a while and come back fresh and with new music? At some point she should give people time to miss her and whatever music she comes out with. I think her Christmas show and her Vegas residency should be enough for next year while she works on new music. Going on tour to celebrate Butterfly to sing the same old tired boring songs wouldn't make sense to me. (Monday 18 September 2017; 15:36)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey gets another shot at reality TV (78,397) (78,401) by Licia from USA I gave up hope on getting a new album anytime soon. Making an album hasn't really been on her radar for a while now. Although I'm disappointed, I completely understand why she has become a touring artist. That's basically where the money is and she has to do what she has to do. The only thing I don't like is her continuously getting our hopes up about a new album when she knows that's not where she's headed. If you are still on this putting out singles to shut us up kick, then say that. Just be honest. As for this new docuseries I'm just going to let ya'll watch the first few episodes to get summaries before I attempt to watch. I'm hoping it really does document the tour and music, but due to how MW went I'm in doubt. (Monday 18 September 2017; 15:24)

Honestly (78,400) by Ben from Sweden Honestly I see Mariah as just some accidents that happened on the web. An awesome magician, musician. (Monday 18 September 2017; 15:17)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey gets another shot at reality TV (78,397) (78,399) by T from USA Doesn't anyone get it? There is no new album. Never was. She's working on songs here and there but if you you think she was crafting a cohesive body of work like MIAM or Butterfly 2.0 then you've been fooled. Remember how long it took her to make the last album? Touring is the new Mariah. I'll be surprised if she ever releases another album again. (Monday 18 September 2017; 13:32)

Thoughts (78,398) by Butterfly from Hip Hop Honors was taped yesterday. I saw lots of videos on Instagram. Let's see. Mariah doing the Honey remix with Brat, JD and Mase and doing a whole damn dance thing. She can't even move like a normal person, why dance? Every step she takes someone is there to help her walk from a to b. She's stiff, awkward and looks uncomfortable The dancers need to go and never come back. After the Honey lazy dance went viral you're up there doing the same thing and the whole r&b/hip hop fans are watching tonight. You know what would be dope. A laid back acoustic performance. Always Be My Baby and Breakdown with Brat, JD, Xscape and Bone Thugs. You guys tell me what you like. A stiff Honey performance with lots of dancers and shit going on or just Mariah with her guest doing an acoustic performance. (Monday 18 September 2017; 13:03)

Article: Mariah Carey gets another shot at reality TV (78,397) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I love the idea of celebrating "Butterfly" because it's my top 3 MC albums but I don't know what to expect from this show really. I mean with MW, it was supposed to be a behind the scenes of the SSFT, but we barely got anything directly related to the behind the scenes (rehearsals, vocal warm ups, dress rehearsals) of the show and more of Mariah's crew messing around, we also barely got 2-3 minutes of concert footage. Also this other world tour idea is great, but then what about her new album? When will she release with? When will she promote it? (Monday 18 September 2017; 12:08)

Re: The acapellas (78,388) (78,396) by Butterfly from Amazing. Just a reminder how great she was. I miss those days. (Monday 18 September 2017; 10:35)

Article: Mariah Carey gets another shot at reality TV (78,395) by Butterfly from Ofcourse. I was wondering why Bryan was still around. Another supposed "docuseries". It will be Mariah's World part 2 and focused on her fake love story. (Monday 18 September 2017; 10:33)

Re: Butterfly20 (78,387) (78,394) by Stacey from USA What "leaks" are you talking about? (Monday 18 September 2017; 04:39)

Re: Close My Eyes (78,389) (78,393) by Andrew from UK Don't worry, mate, so does she. Tick boom. (Sunday 17 September 2017; 21:24)

Re: Butterfly20 (78,387) (78,392) by Bill from the UK Great post Mara, I couldn't put it any better. I've been listening to the album non stop since the anniversary. It's amazing. I am still discovering things buried in the background even after my 10,000th listen or whatever it is now lol. Even more so now those acapella leaks have highlighted other nuances I wasn't aware of. It really is a stunning album. (Sunday 17 September 2017; 19:48)

Butterfly - the videos (78,391) by MusicfanJ from Germany I was watching all the videos of the album and like Mara and others said, it's just pure and beautiful art. It was a time where videos had class, style and sometimes even a little message. They definitely all had a story. Maybe the celebration of "Butterfly" reminds Mariah that she's not only a living legend and a famous diva, she is a true artist. A musical genius, in 97 everyone with taste could see it. It's time to show it in 2017 again. The music biz is so boring nowadays, I need a new album from MC. (Sunday 17 September 2017; 18:26)
