Re: Mariah Superbowl - setllist (like Diana Ross) (72,246) (72,267) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The songs Lady Gaga performed were some of the biggest hits. Everyone knows Bad Romance, Just Dance, Pokerface, Telephone, these songs ushered in that genre and repopularized it again back in 2008 and that was done single handedly by Gaga at that's time. At most people didn't know "Million Reasons" which was her new song. (Monday 6 February 2017; 15:53)

Re: Mariah Superbowl - setllist (like Diana Ross) (72,256) (72,266) by Sheila from United States Actually, while you make think the public at large knows here music they don't. Her music is typically hits in the gay community. (Monday 6 February 2017; 15:38)

Re: It's just entertainment for [censored] (72,265) by Sheila from United States You (basically don't deserve your name mentioned) are the most negative and nasty fish and one day I hope you find happiness and stop being so negative. No one can love or will love you being a negative [censored], [censored] person, you're [censored]. (Monday 6 February 2017; 15:25)

Re: Mariah Carey Superbowl (72,249) (72,264) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines 25, 20, 15, heck, maybe even 10 years ago, I would have considered this possible. Now, considering how stoic she prefers to be in during live performances, I don't see it happening. In this highly visual generation, you can't just stand there or run back and forth a little bit and let all the backup dancers do the hard work. You need to be actually part of the spectacle, especially in an event of such magnitude. Sure, Mariah does have huge uptempo hits fit for the occasion (Emotions, Someday, Make It Happen, Fantasy, Honey, Heartbreaker, It's Like That, Shake It Off) and maybe even her softer/slower/mellower ones (Vision Of Love, Hero, One Sweet Day, Always Be My Baby, We Belong Together, #Beautiful), but she's gotta be present and really be down to do whatever.

Re: Mariah Superbowl - setllist (like Diana Ross) (72,256) (72,263) by Licia from USA Lol I'm sure the general public knew all the setlist with the exception of the songs from her last albums. I don't know where she gets her info from. Smh lol. (Monday 6 February 2017; 14:54)

Re: Mariah Carey Superbowl (72,255) (72,262) by Licia from USA Singing the Star Spangled Banner is way different than doing a haltime performance. Even when Mariah was at her very best I don't think a halftime show would be a great fit for her. Besides Mariah there are alot of artists that I could never imagine doing a halftime show.

Re: Mariah Superbowl - setllist (like Diana Ross) (72,256) (72,261) by Edward from USA I found that funny too. She put on a great show. Neither Mariah nor Whitney or Celine with their voices alone could've pulled something like that. Gaga is an entertainer, she has confidence, can sing, play the piano, dance, and it not always focused on her eyelashes or camera angles. She did great. For moment I tried to imagine Mariah on top of that platform where she was standing by herself, and I was like: she would need an army up there for her not to fall. (Monday 6 February 2017; 14:45)

Re: It's just entertainment (72,242) (72,260) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Thank you. I think the biggest mistake of some people here is that they come to this site expecting this to be some sort of safe space for them. There's nothing wrong with that - but there's nothing realistic about it either. They forget that what makes a fan board interesting is allowing all sorts of fans with their various ways of showing their love for an artist to express themselves. I can't really speak for the webmaster here, but I doubt this board would have lasted as long as it did if only positive messages were actually posted. If you don't like what you read and disagree with it, then that's what scrolling is for. If all the messages happen to be a stream of negativity at a given period, then take a break from the board and check back later. It's all up to you - when everything you read tortures you, remember that no one's holding a gun to your head to keep visiting this site. The pain is therefore self-inflicted.

Superbowl (72,259) by Edward from USA Mariah, different from Madonna, Lady Gaga, Beyonce, and Michael Jackson, hasn't ever been considered a great entertainer. The artist that go on the Superbowl should command the stage with confidence and grace. There's not time for "I Can't Hear Myself" or "Earpieces" problems. Any costume changes should be done within seconds. Mariah can't even walk two steps in her own high heels without help, let alone command gracefully and with stamina a stage like that. Nowadays when Mariah sings live on any TV show, you can see her paying attention to her voice and how she's going to sound, the fear is always in her face, you (all caps) can't bring that to the Superbowl. It would be career suicide. I'm glad she probably won't ever be asked. If something went terrible wrong, I don't think she could handle the aftermath. (Monday 6 February 2017; 14:40)

Re: It's just entertainment (72,241) (72,258) by Andrew from UK "Self-righteous judgement" indeed haha. (Monday 6 February 2017; 14:27)

Re: I Don't video (72,228) (72,257) by Andrew from UK Whilst the red dress is probably the best - sorry, strike that - the least worst thing about the video, it looks like she's been prepped for open heart surgery. Maybe the vulgar look is the future and all the classy people are gonna look proper stupid and feel somewhat silly pretty soon. I think I might start cutting holes in my pants and walking around with my testicles on show. (Monday 6 February 2017; 14:24)

Re: Mariah Superbowl - setllist (like Diana Ross) (72,246) (72,256) by Will from England The General Public don't know Poker Face, Bad Romance or Just Dance? That's funny. (Monday 6 February 2017; 13:46)

Re: Mariah Carey Superbowl (72,249) (72,255) by MusicfanJ from Germany Didn't she sang the US hymne for Superbowl in 2001? I think she did a great "job" back then. I remember I only stayed awake for Mariah and next day I had school. (Monday 6 February 2017; 13:45)

Re: I Don't video (72,228) (72,254) by B from USA She does look amazing. I have no problem with her flaunting it while she's still got it. (Monday 6 February 2017; 13:40)

I Don't (72,253) by B from USA Six million views in three days is impressive considering You're Mine has been out since 2014 and only had eight million views. She might have a hit on her hand. (Monday 6 February 2017; 13:39)

Re: General public (72,247) (72,252) by Malcolm from Asia I hope Mariah tries not starring in her music videos like what Sia and Justin Bieber did. I think in that way, people will more focus in the message of the song and the lyrics. Imagine having great actors who will interpret a Mariah ballad visually, that would be interesting. (Monday 6 February 2017; 13:15)

Re: Showbiz 411 (72,236) (72,251) by Butterfly from The Cindi/Roger connection is simply not true. Roger and Mariah's friendly relationship started because of Roger's friend Benny Medina. Cindi wasn't even working with Mariah when Roger wrote all those positive articles from 2002-2008. (Monday 6 February 2017; 13:06)

Re: Jeezy and Mariah are fire (72,229) (72,250) by Licia from USA Yeah the Hermosa video was nice. It was fun and sexy, but not awkwardly sexy like the original. When she doesn't try so hard everything falls into place. I bet that remix video was everything. Lol. (Monday 6 February 2017; 12:48)

Mariah Carey Superbowl (72,249) by Danny from Uk I'm not sure that it would work for Mariah especially based on her track record of live performances. I don't know why I can just never imagine it. I think something like an unplugged show like some have said before or even a long section on an award show such as the Oscars or Grammy would be a better idea or even a live iTunes show. (Monday 6 February 2017; 12:34)

Re: Why are you here: George Golden from UK (72,223) (72,248) by Licia from USA That's the best one I could think of that quickly Andrew. I'm not quick on my feet like you are. Lol. (Monday 6 February 2017; 12:26)

Re: General public (72,230) (72,247) by MusicfanJ from Germany Oh yes, a video like "My All" would be great. For me those videos were video art. But that was a time where videos were better in every way. I also agree that the cougar sexbomb is for entertainment, but all I'm asking for is a little more class, it's not like a want Mariah to be a nun. Lol. Anyway B., I love your avatar with the Daydream album. Is that you? Daydream was my first Mariah cd. (Monday 6 February 2017; 12:19)

Mariah Superbowl - setllist (like Diana Ross) (72,246) by Sheila from United States Mariah has the hits for Superbowl, the problem with Lady Gaga is the public doesn't know all those songs she sang. Mariah could open with Emotions, One Sweet Day snippet, Make It Happen, We Belong Together, Always Be My Baby and closer: Fantasy ODB version. Diana Ross did it and does not dance. (Monday 6 February 2017; 11:59)

Re: Who do you think the male artist is? (72,239) (72,245) by Billy from England, UK Oh I hope it's not him lol how boring? I hope it's The Weekend or Ed Sheeran. (Monday 6 February 2017; 11:03)

Re: Who do you think the male artist is? (72,239) (72,244) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter It's not Lionel and it's not The Weeknd, as confirmed by Liron. Kinda glad it's not Lionel, don't get me wrong, the man is a legend in his own right but I really want it to be someone current. Chances are it's DJ Khaled and Travis Scott. But she did say it's top secret yet their studio photos have been all over the social media. But MC said something like "they'll kill me if I reveal it", makes it sound like it's for someone else's album, like maybe DJ Khaled. (Monday 6 February 2017; 10:28)

Re: Mariah needs to do Superbowl (72,235) (72,243) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I think Gaga did a great job, let's not drag her down. The woman put on a stellar show. Personally I think a Super Bowl for Mariah would be very risky. Each year every performer, especially in the recent years try to out do each other and bring it bigger and better. They go all out. Mariah has some great songs that would work really well for the Super Bowl but I don't know if she can "put on a show" on the scale of the Super Bowl. Like a visual spectacle, big budget performance. But that's just my opinion. Like I said, she does have the songs that would be great for the set list and would translate great live, but if she doesn't put up a big show, people will drag her through and through.
