About Giovanni from USA: Been a fan since 2005.

Re: Rihanna,Beyonce and Mariah (59,496) (59,500) by Giovanni from USA Exactly what I say. We might sound like some haters but it's the truth. I just don't see it. (Tuesday 2 February 2016; 10:12)

Rihanna,Beyonce and Mariah (59,492) by Giovanni from USA Ri Ri and B are two of the most overrated artists of today. Rihanna isn't a singer, and her music does nothing for me. Beyonce can sing but I feel the same way about her music. Both do whatever to be top, but I don't think neither will last as long as Mariah. Mariah's songs are timeless and still sound just as fresh today as they did when they were first released. She shouldn't ever have to worrry about anyone in the music industry. Especially artists like Rihanna and Beyonce. All she needs is her voice, great music, good videos, hella promotion and support from her fans. Get back with Jermaine and come up with something new. Or hit up Pharell for that upbeat uptempo hit everyone seems to want lol. And I'm sure Ben Margulies would be more than happy to work with you again. So make it happen Mariah. We all want a hit album just like the good old days. You can do it. Also, good luck in Vegas. (Monday 1 February 2016; 23:29)

Re: Mariah Carey calls for more diversity (59,471) (59,475) by Giovanni from USA You need to calm down. All the name calling isn't necessary. (Monday 1 February 2016; 10:16)

Re: Question time (59,462) (59,464) by Giovanni from USA Personally I'd like a ballad. I feel an upbeat or club banger wouldn't do much on the charts. A ballad or something on the lines of "Beautiful" would definitely have a more chance of being her next number one. I don't want another "It's like that". (Monday 1 February 2016; 0:49)

I'm so over this discussion about Walter (59,449) by Giovanni from USA The man is history. Mariah doesn't need him for a hit. She's had many hits without him. I believe in her talent that she can make more amazing songs. As well as having another successful era. (Saturday 30 January 2016; 23:19)

Re: Walter (59,428) (59,435) by Giovanni from USA I'm in no way anti Walter. I have not forgotten what he has contributed to Mariah's music. All I was saying was that she doesn't need him to be successful again. (Saturday 30 January 2016; 3:47)

Re: The richness and Riri (59,419) (59,420) by Giovanni from USA I like your thinking but I don't think Mariah would ever work with Walter again. Nor does she need him. Her career stayed strong after "Daydream" and she's still a force to be reckoned with. She can still sing and has written so many amazing songs. Some that had potential to be number one. Mariah has plenty of other talented songwriters she can work with. (Friday 29 January 2016; 10:21)

Lee (59,415) by Giovanni from USA Stellar post. I often wonder what was the name of the song on that famous demo tape? Weakness of the body. (Friday 29 January 2016; 1:35)

Re: The album releases (59,400) (59,408) by Giovanni from USA I agree, Wendy was completely shading Britney. She's not a singer but she's had a big amount of success. Wendy only praises Jennifer because she went on her show. Regarding album releases this year, I'm honestly not looking forward for anyone. I wish Beyonce and Rihanna would just go away lol. I'm so hoping for an big epic album from our girl. (Thursday 28 January 2016; 22:10)

Brenda (59,407) by Giovanni from USA Very interesting interview. I love how she said she's happy Mariah is successful. But I wasn't here for the crying. Brenda had a beautiful voice, face and had star quality. Especially for freestyle. But if she was dropped and wanted to still keep her career, why didn't she go and sign with another label? Mariah once said in an interview that if she wouldn't have gotten signed with Sony she would found another label to sign her. She was determined to make her dream happend. Who knows what happened between them? Maybe one day they will have lunch and reconcile. (Thursday 28 January 2016; 22:03)

Wendy (59,396) by Giovanni from USA So according to Wendy JLo is the new queen of Vegas lol. But of course she did not bring up the fact that her show was not completely sold out. I feel now with Britney, Mariah and JLo there is competition on who can sell out the most shows. Kinda like a Vegas showdown lol. I didn't include Celine because her shows are always sold out. (Thursday 28 January 2016; 11:57)

TJ / Mimi L. (59,395) by Giovanni from USA You're probably right but still. I would have loved to hear Mariah cover it. Mimi L thanks for posting those pics. She did look like a queen. I feel she could pull off that style again. Maybe in a video or strictly for an interview. (Thursday 28 January 2016; 11:48)

Randy (59,394) by Giovanni from USA Well thanks, the feeling is mutal. Maybe you are right regarding "Unbreak my heart". It's just a fantasy. But I will say I liked your list. Especially with "Angel". I love me some Sarah Mclachlan. My favorite songs are "I will remember you" and "Fallen". "Afterglow" is my favorite album. And for some reason I enjoy playing it only on cloudy and rainy days. (Thursday 28 January 2016; 11:40)

Five songs I wish were Mariah's (59,381) by Giovanni from USA I'd thought I'd share some of my favorite songs I wish were Mariah's. 1. "If you asked me to" from Patti Labelle. I can hit repeat about four or five times when playing this amazing song. Mariah would have owned this. 2. "Beauty and the Beast" from Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson. I respect Celine as a great singer but this should have been Mariah's song. 3. "I'm your angel" by Celine Dion and R. Kelly. I know, another from Celine. But still, it's definitely Mariah. 4. "Unbreak my heart" from Toni Braxton. A power ballad that screams Mariah. 5. "Nobody's supposed to be here" dance mix from Deborah Cox. Why oh why isn't this Mariah's? There is no denying she would have sung all these songs way better than the orginal singers. (Thursday 28 January 2016; 0:01)

Mimi L. (59,379) by Giovanni from USA How about the style she wore in the "Nick Cannon did not explode over Mariah engagement" pic? It's very lovely and one of my favorite looks on her. If I'm not mistaken, it's the same look she wore when she met Thalia for the first time. (Wednesday 27 January 2016; 23:38)

Nick (59,365) by Giovanni from USA Has anyone noticed that ever since Mariah divorced Nick he has been completely irrelevant. You don't hear from him or see him anywhere. It was Mariah herself who not only made him famous but boosted his career. Now he's nowhere in the spotlight. Nobody even talks about him anymore. (Wednesday 27 January 2016; 11:05)

RJJ12 (59,364) by Giovanni from USA Okay, no way would Mariah steal JLo's stylist lol. I don't even know if she could. Personally I don't think Mariah needs her stylist. She has had many gorgeous styles. The problem is that she tends to stick with the same do too long. I would like for her to wear the look she had on MTV cribs. Or how she had it up in the "Can't let go" and "Don't forget about us" videos. What do you think Mimi L? (Wednesday 27 January 2016; 10:51)

Re: Calabasas (59,345) (59,348) by Giovanni from USA Agreed, that apartment is dope. I don't think I would want to leave if I was a guest lol. That whole episode of Cribs is classic. Mariah looked gorgeous and was so laid back and real. (Tuesday 26 January 2016; 13:24)

Jlo / Mariah (59,347) by Giovanni from USA I feel like it's an even balance between Jlo and Mariah. Although Jlo can dance, she can't really sing. (Though I do enjoy some of her songs.) And Mariah can sing, but can't dance. But who can dislike her choreography in the "Honey" or "Heartbreaker" videos. Both are classic. For Vegas, I do believe Mariah tries hard to put on a good show. For someone who isn't a dancer, what can you expect? The same would be said about Aretha, Chaka or Patti had they been doing a Vegas residency. All I would like to see is better ensembles. That pink one she wore should never be worn again. (Tuesday 26 January 2016; 13:15)

Lee (59,339) by Giovanni from USA That's the girl, thank you. I remember watching a video on YouTube of Mariah during the "Music Box" era. She was talking about the apartment she lived in and how she was working on getting her record deal. It showed her and Josephine making pizzas and serving them to people. I thought that was cute. But my favorite part was of her sitting down and writing lyrics for a song. What I would give to hear all of Mariah's songs that were never released. (Tuesday 26 January 2016; 1:17)

Mariah wants summer wedding (59,335) by Giovanni from USA Wow, looks like it's really going to happen. Will Mariah get Patti to sing at the wedding? (Monday 25 January 2016; 23:32)

Does anyone know (59,332) by Giovanni from USA The name of the girl Mariah shared an apartment with when they were young? Are they still friends? Also, what happened to Da Brat and Jermaine? There hasn't been one picture of either of them with Mariah. (Monday 25 January 2016; 22:18)

Mimi L (59,331) by Giovanni from USA Your posts always have me cracking up. Especially about Stella. I look forward to more hash tags. (Monday 25 January 2016; 22:11)

Mimi L./Stella (59,313) by Giovanni from USA I feel you. It's like they're all living the luxury with Mariah. I understand that Stella is her manager, but is it really necessary for her and her kids to go everywhere Mariah goes? What's next? Are they going on Mariah and Packer's honeymoon? (Monday 25 January 2016; 10:39)

Re: LA Reid (59,307) (59,312) by Giovanni from USA I don't like the man. I feel he's all about the money. He's said that Mariah is talented and that she has no competition. But then he says that she more and likely cannot get another number one song. (Monday 25 January 2016; 10:30)
