Martyn's vigil (75,840) by Lee from UK Sorry Eric, this is probably a better link. And here is a link to a speech by his mother. There are more videos available linked to these tweets so for those who wanted to be there but couldn't, I thought these would be helpful. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 21:44)

Martyn's vigil (75,839) by Lee from UK A vigil was held for Martyn tonight in his home town. Here is a touching rendition of Till the End of Time being performed there. He was obviously well loved. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 21:36)

Re: Mariah on TMZ (75,825) (75,838) by Lila from United States I found it to be more confirmation that she has TMZ in her back pocket. The paps were definitely called and really the TMZ bus just happened to be there. The woman recording was asking her if she and Nick were back together. At first Mariah thought she was asking her about Tonka Toy but then the woman corrected her and Mariah said "We were married, honey. We took two years to get divorced. He's a great guy, though, a great person, a great father." Then the woman proceeds to ask her for advice on getting married. Mariah says "don't do it" then she laughs and says "just be sure about it". I guess it was a nice "interview" though, strangely enough. She didn't ramble, which was nice. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 16:30)

I was born at night, not last night (75,837) by Lila from United States Everyone is really on a mission to play us for fools. Now Mariah's dumb nephew is on Twitter saying that 1) she and Tonka Toy never broke up and 2) Mariah hasn't recorded much for the new album and then in a rude reply to another fan that she's just started recording it. I guess number one isn't a total lie because how can you break up with someone you were never with but looking at it in its given context, it's like: so where did he suddenly disappear to and why? Why did Mariah say to TMZ that she was enjoying being single? Why all those stories that came from TMZ first and foremost, who we all know Mariah has in her back pocket thanks to Stella, calling him a golddigger and jealous? Why is it that now that he's resurfacing, Mariah's back to wearing the necklace that James gifted her when she was hanging with Nick, she ditched it? As for number two, that answer certainly does clash with the tweet "from her" that said that she couldn't wait to finish her album in the Bahamas. Mariah has also been saying that she's been listening to the new music. Definitely, gives off the impression that she's been recording a lot more than anyone thought. Why mention finish if it hasn't even begun and now we're hearing it's barely anything. They swear we were all born yesterday. Note to them: before you try to play the fans as fools, get your lies in order and remember them. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 16:27)

New music and movie? (75,836) by Haiji Toro from USA Hey guys, hope all is well. I came across some sites stating upcoming new music and a movie role. Supposedly, MC will be on DJ Kaled's new album on a song with Migos and Travis Scott. She will also play a part in a movie with Will Ferrell and Amy Poehler, named The House. Can someone please confirm this? Is there more info on any of this? [Webmaster: Sometimes I wonder if anyone reads the news on this website.] (Sunday 28 May 2017; 16:27)

Re: Stephen from London (75,824) (75,835) by Special K from USA Me too. Or maybe I'm drinking the yak a bit much. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 16:07)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,811) (75,834) by Special K from USA I love both albums but I have to give it to Emotions. The Emotions album like others have stated solidifed me as a die hard fan. The debut is great but it sounds dated and Mariah appeared to have no personality. With Emotions the tones in Mariah's voice are showcased more, the production of the songs are on a whole other level, and the songs are timeless. Emotions has personality (To Be Around You, Emotions, Make It Happen) the album is a perfect blend of soul, pop, with a sprinkles of gospel. Listening to this album just makes me feel good. Of course I have to give shout out to TTEOT but songs like Don't Remember, So Blessed, The Wind and Can't Let Go are dang near perfect. Critics didn't see the vision with this album.

Re: Mariah on TMZ (75,825) (75,833) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Are you talking about her greeting the people on the TMZ tour bus? (Sunday 28 May 2017; 12:08)

Re: Brown hair (75,830) (75,832) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I apologize, it was autocorrected, I typed in Matty. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 12:07)

Tour (75,831) by steven from usa Have y'all seen her twitter page? Someone asked her to perform Anytime You Need A Friend and she responded and said it was a good idea but she doesn't know (yet). And also replied to someone that she is debating on Faded vs Thanx 4 Nothin to put on the tour set list. I think we are gonna get some never performed songs. I'm ecstatic.

Re: Brown hair (75,819) (75,830) by Matty from Vancouver Canada Matty (not Marty*). (Sunday 28 May 2017; 08:23)

Re: Why a beauty shop? (75,788) (75,829) by Tijl from Belgium Unfortunately it will become a shortlived experience. Mariah unfortunately has no credibility when it comes to fashion and beauty. Yes, there have been the collections with MAC and the perfumes are selling well (in the US that is). However she is hardly ever mentioned as a style icon because she isn't one. Her heyday as a potential fashionista ran in the 90's during the Butterfly era. Remember the Gucci ensembles? These days her look has become tacky and cheap. It takes a lot more than a good idea to build a succesful business outside of her own domain. Victoria Beckham has been a huge icon of fashion for years and yet her London store still makes no profit. Go figure. Mimi should stick to making great music. The end. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 08:12)

New album / distractions (75,828) by G.G. from USA I'm afraid with all the side jobs (trying to make Stella rich) are going to ruin the new album and its roll out. MC needs to focus on the music and not all these side gigs. Why can't Mariah see that Stella and her family are leeches? (Sunday 28 May 2017; 04:54)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,813) (75,827) by B from USA I also don't skip a song on Emotions. MIAM was like Mariah took Emotions and Memoirs and put them into a blender. She needs to grow up musically. She needs to write simple melodic songs again with lyrics that are clever and poetic without pandering to the youth of today. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 02:42)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,817) (75,826) by B from USA Matty, you articulated what I was trying to say perfectly. Mariah needs to revisit the Motown sound from the Emotions and Daydream again. The last hit single she had was a Motown homage. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 02:36)

Mariah on TMZ (75,825) by RibbonB from USA Did anyone else find that interesting that she communicated with TMZ? I'm not really clear on what she was saying, but at least it was a lighthearted "interview". She is certainly hitting all the tabloid buttons this year. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 02:03)

Re: Stephen from London (75,782) (75,824) by Andrew from UK I'm really confused. Special K was talking to Stephen Madigan. Who are you? You are answering for him? Or am I on drugs? Or are you? It's you, me or both. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 01:51)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,811) (75,823) by Andrew from UK Eddie Eddie Eddie, it's almost as if someone suggested polls not so long ago. Coming soon: an original post? Love you much. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 01:48)

Re: Brown hair (75,819) (75,822) by Anonymous from I agree too guys, the darker tones are more warming and subtle. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 00:51)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,817) (75,821) by Anonymous from However I do agree that Mariah performs better vocally on "Emotions" but I prefer the majority of songs on the debut album. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 00:49)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,817) (75,820) by Anonymous from For me it's the debut album. It set the bar and was completely effortless. I feel the "Emotions" album was a little forced at times, trying to make a bolder statement which fell flat for me. I do however appreciate its artistic creativity. The stand out song for me on that is album "Till The End If Time" however her debut has so many. From "Alone In Love", "Prisoner", "I Don't Wanna Cry", "All In Your Mind" the list is endless. I find myself skipping through more tracks on "Emotions" when compared to the debut. (Sunday 28 May 2017; 00:37)

Re: Brown hair (75,818) (75,819) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Same Marty, same. I love her darker hair moments. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 23:53)

Brown hair (75,818) by Matty from Vancouver Canada I'd love if Mariah would go brunette again. I love when her hair is brown (ah-la 1990, 1996, 2009). (Saturday 27 May 2017; 23:10)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,811) (75,817) by Matty from Vancouver Canada Emotions. I love the cohesion of this album start to finish and she started shifting towards the Doo Wop sound she explores further on Daydream. The album artwork is different from any other Mariah album art, it's in dynamic motion. To Be Around You and You're So Cold are two of her best '90's dance tracks. (Saturday 27 May 2017; 23:04)

Re: Battle of the albums round 1 (75,811) (75,816) by Merr Hasenan from Malaysia The debut album made me an instant fan but Emotions sealed the deal that I am a die hard fan. You're So Cold and And You Don't Remember are permanently in my top ten playlist. From the debut, it is only IDWC that made it up there. I love the album cover (I got a cassette) but what made me appreciate Emotions more than the first one is simply because Mariah co-produced all the tracks. For me, Emotions is the winner.
