Re: Article: Mariah Carey visits cosmetic surgery centre (75,175) (75,205) by Anonymous from Andrew my dear preach. As sad as it is, Mariah needs a makeover overhall, in all tence and purposes, pronto. Yes everyone should be themselves, but Mariah is turning into a Stella wannabe. (Saturday 13 May 2017; 02:11)

Agree Ribbon (75,204) by Anonymous from If Mariah can't be bothered to make good wholesome music then seeing Sharon and she working together could be a beautiful thing. (Saturday 13 May 2017; 02:07)

Re: Article: X Factor bosses in secret talks with Mariah Carey (75,202) (75,203) by Licia from USA I don't think it would be a good idea. It doesn't make sense to go and do the very thing you claim was hell the first time around. I'd be surprised if she accepts this, but then again she said she'd never do a reality show and we all know how that went. Lol. (Saturday 13 May 2017; 01:54)

Article: X Factor bosses in secret talks with Mariah Carey (75,202) by RibbonB from USA This is an interesting rumor. I think it would be cool for MC to live/work in the UK for a bit as long as Crustella and her coven stay in Calabasas. Lol. Mariah and Sharon get along well. If M. does something like this I hope she really comes with her A game, otherwise please don't. (Saturday 13 May 2017; 00:55)

Re: How 650 million can get messed up (75,198) (75,201) by RibbonB from USA Yeah, a lot of people rich and poor are naive about the value of money. Mariah could cut a lot of expenses just by cutting leeches and not maintaining so many properties that she rarely lives in or even visits. Sad that she never seems to even be in her glamorous NYC apartment anymore. I just hope she is ok and her financial legacy is in tact. MJ was so in debt at the end. (Saturday 13 May 2017; 00:43)

Re: Possible TM and MC reunion (75,194) (75,200) by Terna from Nigeria "I hope you don't get no ideas about reuniting baby, because you're the last thing I truly need." - The Art of Letting Go. It's never (all caps) gonna happen. He damaged her enough. It's time for her to heal and mend and be genuinely happy. (Saturday 13 May 2017; 00:29)

Re: LA Reid replacement (75,189) (75,199) by Terna from Nigeria Exactly my concerns, something's off about how suddenly Epic is breaking down with talks of even shutting it down now she has a label tied to Sony/Epic and the one person who has years of experience of running labels, who could be of a great deal of help is suddenly truncated out. Someone somewhere is manipulating and pulling strings and I feel Carey's the target. It's no coincidence. (Saturday 13 May 2017; 00:24)

Re: How 650 million can get messed up (75,196) (75,198) by Lila from United States I'm still amazed at how so many people don't know the difference between paper rich, made up rich (my fave is worth $500M because Forbes said so ), and actual liquid cash and assets. Not to mention the many people that think that just because you're a millionaire or even a bilionaire, it's impossible to run out of money. (Saturday 13 May 2017; 00:01)

Re: How 650 million can get messed up (75,196) (75,197) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter People tend to think just because she is reportedly worth $500 million, that it's actually in liquid cash laying around for her to use. They forget it includes assets, her brand and a lot more. Plus they also forget that Mariah may earn more than the average people (well a heck lot more) but she also spends a lot more than the average people. I won't be even surprised at all if I hear Stella has been squirreling money away. In fact I will be surprised if she didn't. A woman who has basically removed everyone from her team (because they were leeches) only to replace it with a fresh batch of leeches from her old blood line is not to be trusted. It's only a matter of time before Sasha becomes the head of Butterfly MC records. (Friday 12 May 2017; 23:44)

How 650 million can get messed up (75,196) by RibbonB from USA Here is an article on the mishaps with Johnny Depp's fortune. It is a cautionary tale for any wealthy performer. People love to throw out 500 million for MC, but there is a lot involved with that and a lot of hands in the pot. I just hope this present team isn't robbing her blind, or mismanaging her funds. She had better "stay woke" and present in her own life and deals and don't leave it all entrusted in one shady family. (Friday 12 May 2017; 22:00)

Re: LA Reid replacement (75,189) (75,195) by MusicfanJ from Germany I can't imagine that Tommy will be involved somehow, but who knows? Is it official with Sylvia Rhone? I just googled her, and I like the results. I know everyone was always praising L.A. Reid, but I think a new team would be great for Mariah. And I hope she will feel comfortable again that she can let go the Russian Kadashians. Just dreaming. (Friday 12 May 2017; 21:35)

Possible TM and MC reunion (75,194) by Stacey from USA It might not be such a bad thing. All this talk about TM behind LA's departure from Epic is just that: speculation. I honestly think both ex's have grown up and moved on from that situation. Mariah isn't young and naive as she was during her time at Columbia records. In the end, I don't think Tommy is in any way associated with this mess at Epic. Mariah will put an album out later this year as she's said. If it tanks, I'd say she's in real trouble of losing her record deal. (Friday 12 May 2017; 18:35)

More Sony shakeups / Epic ending? (75,193) by RibbonB from USA Well what with the new Sony CEO there are rumors that he may even close Epic records. I doubt Mottola will be resurrected as a Sony executive, especially not as one involved in Mariah's career. Hopefully her little label creation has offered her some protection, or an out if things shake up so much at the label. (Friday 12 May 2017; 17:40)

Re: Reid for Mariah's manager (75,188) (75,192) by Susana from USA Ahhh, yes. I agree he would be great. He was once an artist himself. I just wonder if he would go that route considering he's been at the helm of such large labels. (Friday 12 May 2017; 16:14)

Re: LA Reid replacement (75,189) (75,191) by B from USA Sony fired Tommy. Tommy heads Casablanca Records and despite his ability to create stars he was unable to turn Lindsay Lohan into a singing star despite the fact that at the time she was already a movie star and could actually sing (sort like J.Lo except she could sing). He also failed to help his wife Thalia cross over. He didn't turn Celine into a star, Rene did. He helped Mariah but she put in the work and despite his sabotaging of the Glitter era she was able to make one of biggest comebacks in history. LA just suggested Mariah work with JD again (which was a no-brainer after 2004 he was once again the hottest producer on the planet, thanks to Usher's Confessions). Mariah needs to work with fresh producers and writers that aren't stuck in the mid 2000's. (Friday 12 May 2017; 16:13)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey visits cosmetic surgery centre (75,183) (75,190) by B from USA I doubt she'd alter her face, I know she had a nose job early in her career, but I don't see her wanting to look like Stella. I know she has insecurities but she is too vain to mess her face up like MJ. If she is considering surgery my money is on a breast lift or reduction and a tummy tuck. Her body isn't in bad shape but her breasts make her look top heavy. She's naturally tan and lean and althetic [sic] looking but since giving birth she looks like the weight of her breast are going to topple her over. (Friday 12 May 2017; 16:06)

Re: LA Reid replacement (75,187) (75,189) by Mara from United States Now if Tommy is the replacement for LA, how much control would he have on MC and the Butterfly label? Something is really off about all of this. Tommy coming out of the woodwork to publicly comment on Mariah after NYE lets you know he is still into the music scene and how "he thinks he could make it better". After the commotion his public comments made along with Stella's response, I noticed on Twitter, accounts solely with pics of MC and TM and pushing for them to reunite. People were thinking how Tommy made people stars and how he is the mastermind behind MC. Then we hear the news months later about MC releasing an album after she stated she wouldn't and she as focusing on singles. Next comes the label launch and the party. Funny how this happens right after the label launch party that was all her signature (pink yet lavender butterfly theme) and of course the picture with LA and Mariah. LA looked tired in the pic but we haven't seen a pic of the two of them for a while. Then this. Could any of it all be connected? What control would T have if he did take over LA's spot, on M's new label? Could LA go with MC on her new label? Either way, I am concerned for what it means for M. (Friday 12 May 2017; 15:25)

Reid for Mariah's manager (75,188) by Dav from Ireland Reid for Mariah's manager. Let speak it into existence. (Friday 12 May 2017; 14:51)

Re: LA Reid replacement (75,172) (75,187) by Terna from Nigeria I immediately thought the same thing too. But didn't want to say it first. Tommy is thirsty and still wants him some Mariah Carey. Lol. He still has loyal people at Sony who can and would do anything for him. He's suspect number one. (Friday 12 May 2017; 14:38)

Re: L.A Reid leaving Epic (75,178) (75,186) by Terna from Nigeria The former, fired as a result of MC's new label deal. Reid is close with Mariah and she trusts him. And he's also experienced in the music industry too. The man (L.A Reid has multi platinum albums, singles and hits under his belt) was one of the most important factors in the creation of and execution of "The Emancipation of Mimi" album and era. And not having him in the Epic label picture is upsetting and kinda like when she was back at Def Jam. I'm not happy about this development at all. (Friday 12 May 2017; 14:34)

Re: LA Reid replacement (75,182) (75,185) by B from USA She's also wooing Mariah after the Virgin buyout. I know I spelled Elektra wrong, oh well. If she was willing to sign Mariah after Glitter she's obviously a fan and knows her potential and thinks she can help her. Not worried. (Friday 12 May 2017; 14:15)

Re: Butterfly / MC LA is leaving Epic (75,163) (75,184) by B from USA I assume this new label will be similar to MonarC and focus solely on promoting and releasing Mariah's next album. (Friday 12 May 2017; 14:13)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey visits cosmetic surgery centre (75,175) (75,183) by MusicfanJ from Germany I hate to see that she visits such a center. Even if it's only for info or whatever. Crustella shouldn't be her role model. I wish Mariah would get some "help" mentally. Don't get me wrong, but I think she needs a healthy way of life without toxic people instead of paying for superficial "treatments". Women with class doesn't get old they mature. And Mariah Carey doesn't need to impress kids and the Hollywood circus. She needs inner peace again and like I said a thousand times before true friends. The showbiz was toxic for so many talented people but if you're in it for 27 years you should know who's a friend and who's a snake/witch. Hmm Mariah please go on a real vacation with no media, meet real interesting people and just have a good time. It makes everybody more beautiful then any center can do. (Friday 12 May 2017; 14:12)

Re: LA Reid replacement (75,172) (75,182) by B from USA His replacement has already been announced, has she not? Sylvia, the former head of Electra Records? (Friday 12 May 2017; 14:08)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey visits cosmetic surgery centre (75,175) (75,181) by Licia from USA Adele isn't a size two, but yet she's pretty darn popular in the music industry. Anyway the problem isn't her weight. I've seen women bigger than Mariah that kill her in the fashion department. The problem is she wears too little sh*t that's all wrong for her body. She can get as skinny as a twig, but it won't matter if she doesn't wear the right type of clothes and she continues to shop in the toddler section. (Friday 12 May 2017; 13:52)
