Video teaser (71,942) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) So far it looks like the same expired trying to be sexy act when it is so unnecessary because MC is very sexy in her own right when she is not trying hard. Hopefully MC gets a clue and learns that she is losing with all the extra ness and losing big time. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 7:35)

Re: Tommy Mottola (71,941) by Nikki from usa I don't think the guy who tried to sabotage her entire career should be given any free pass. I also don't see how gloating in his own book how he isolated her and instructed their house staff not to look her in the eye or speak to her - being treated like a ghost in her own home - before "apologizing" for being controlling "because I knew she had so much talent" really suffices as an apology. He doesn't even act like his actions in the Glitter debacle ever happened. Mariah never went into full details, she stuck with buzz words. What sticks out to me is what producers and Da Brat stated before she and Mottola split. A couple of producers mentioned it was hard to work because he would call every other hour to see how things were going and constantly reminding them they had to be done by 7pm because a car would be there to take her home for dinner. Da Brat didn't understand why Mariah kept whispering and Mariah told her it was because she didn't want the audio from the cameras around the house to pick up their talk. You can actually see some of those cameras in the remix video for Always Be My Baby. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 7:28)

I don't know her (71,940) by Manny from U.S. I don't know who this Mariah is anymore. I was trying to be the fan I was before during this Mariah's World. I thought that it couldn't get worse. But I saw the "I don't" preview and she flips off, I guess Packer wearing the ring. What the hell? Really, Mariah. I'm sorry but James should be the one saying FU to you. You were flirting with your boy toy, lap dance and all when you were supposed to be engaged. Where is her logic and common sense? The whole video has no taste. I am slowly losing my loyalty. I literally rolled my eyes when I saw her flip off. I guess this "empowerment" song is about being a man hater. I don't like this new era. After I saw Mishka say something about her ass, I was done with this low life of a manager. Empowering women is repecting yourself and other women. How are you teaching your girl to be so vulgar? I'm not feeling this Mariah anymore and it sucks. I have been a fan since her debut. When I was in sixth grade. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 6:53)

Re: Tommy Mottola (71,930) (71,939) by Malcolm from Asia I don't really know what happened back in the day but I watched some videos, articles, etc. about the situation. After that, one thing has crossed my mind, what if Mariah's claim was just too far-fetched and overrated? But it's no doubt that Tommy is the mastermind behind Mariah's phenomenal success in the 90's, that's that. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 6:28)

Video teaser (71,938) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Here's a teaser of the video. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 5:41)

Re: Whose the liar: Mariah or James? (71,919) (71,937) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Haha what feels different this time is she's over doing it. Crafting a whole reality show to set up an alternative explanation of what happened to her relationship when the whole world already knew the truth, pushing this "Tanaka is my soul mate" crap too hard (maybe because Packer disliked him) and saying "oh I know him for so long, there's a connection that you can't have with everybody" and how he's her bestie, when she herself stated in the beginning of the show that she hasn't seen him since TAOM. Also back then M never hung out with her dancers, which was also confirmed when Anthony said that the first time he performed with MC, he only saw her for the first time when they had to hit the stage. Now she has the whole "ring drop" scene and then wearing the ring on her middle finger for the music video, almost falling off her hand. All of these are just extra. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 4:25)

Re: Promotion for the single (71,922) (71,936) by Special K from USA The last art cover they posted with just Mariah's face is absolutely stunning. I wish she would loose the hooker ho look. It's not cute. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 3:25)

New pic (71,935) by Mara from United States The new teaser pic is stunning. She really is a flawless beauty who never ages. Her eyebrows, skin and hair look amazing in this latest shot. Wow. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 2:58)

Beyoncé at Beacon (71,934) by Mara from United States I wonder if she told Mariah when she went to see her show and especially when she had Blue Ivy playing with Roc and Roe. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 2:55)

Credibility (71,933) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter It's really sad how Mariah basically ruined her own credibility in the last 2 years. Before that I don't think anyone would question her account of what Tommy did. Now, even if she was saying the truth, people will always think maybe it's not the complete truth because of all the mess she and her team created around her image. From fake story lines to fake boy toys, only M and her team are to be blamed for people suddenly questioning her. It also doesn't help that she has been completely swallowed by her diva persona, something she previously said that she is in on, now it seems like it's not just an act but it has slowly taken over her. I wish this reality show in particular never took place, it's possibly something (among other things) that has created a huge dent in her credibility. Never in my life did I think I would have to wonder why Mariah Carey, a singer with genuine talent and well deserved fame, would feel the need to go on a publicity stunt over drive. It's like she can't stop the drama, one drama after another is lined up. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 2:39)

Not mutually exclusive (71,932) by RibbonB from USA Mariah's perception of her relationship with her first husband and her clear distortion of events for a reality show are not mutually exclusive. One thing does not negate the other. It is unclear why she would trust another snake manager and so blatantly put her credibility in doubt, but many others have witnessed and can attest to his controlling and obsessive behavior with respect to MC. Not to mention he would have been the bankroll and originator of any fabrications to her career or background back then. People want to give him the credit for her success, but don't like to note the industry dirt, manipulation etc. that record executives are known for, particularly the devil TM. He admits himself that he was wrong for mixing business and relationship. Now look at the results in her life. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 1:30)

Isn't it ironic? (71,931) by Danny from Uk Ironically the one thing Mariah has claimed to have found and experienced, her emancipation, she has never truly mastered. Freedom. She is now a slave to herself and yet seemingly served by minions who pose themselves as confidantes and friends. Whom seem to not only add themselves to the payroll but offer nothing in the way of creative processes. She hasn't found her emancipation not in the way she wants us to believe, she still cares what people think about her, she still wants to be the Mariah Carey of the hey day but wants to eat them space cakes, flash those melons and have an army of yes men. She needs to wake up, like now or the only legacy she will leave behind is one like Judy Garland. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 0:58)

Re: Tommy Mottola (71,923) (71,930) by Andrew from UK Given that Tommy Motolla has apologised for being controlling and to any hurt it caused Mariah and his two children, and given that he has said that Mariah's depictions of his behaviour are over-the-top, too harsh or untrue, given that we know that Mariah when left to her own devices makes tragic decisions and looks to other people to blame, and given that we now know that Mariah embellishes, or lies about, most stuff in her life to gain sympathy or play the victim, it's fair to say that Mariah's depiction of the Mottola situation is probably not as the most reliable witness. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 0:35)

Mediocrity I (71,929) by George Golden from UK The problem is the material. It is trash. They can promote all they want. She is getting worse folks. Time to take a long break or just come out with a full length album. If this songs tanks she won't promote it anymore. Infinity feels like a gem compared to this. Why the mediocrity? The trashy hooker look is tired. She may be talented but she needs guidance with her sound and image. (Thursday 2 February 2017; 0:13)

Re: I Wish You Well (71,927) (71,928) by Lannister from USA One of my favorite tracks that she ever did. I hear the last 2 verses were about her family members that she just had to let go (we all know who they are). (Wednesday 1 February 2017; 22:01)

Re: I Wish You Well (71,920) (71,927) by RibbonB from USA Edward, thank God Stella was not around then. She was carrying her youngest then in year one of a three or four year gestation period, plotting to infiltrate Mimi's life. (Wednesday 1 February 2017; 21:16)

Beyonce twins? (71,926) by RibbonB from USA Wow, congratulations to Beyonce she is having twins. I just read that Pharrell and his wife are having triplets. What is it about Hollywood pregnancies? I love Roc and Roc though, for sure. (Wednesday 1 February 2017; 21:13)

Re: Whose the liar: Mariah or James? (71,917) (71,925) by Malcolm from Asia Stella just isn't the right manager for Mariah period. (Wednesday 1 February 2017; 20:51)

Re: James Packer is in trouble, again (71,897) (71,924) by Terna from Nigeria Maybe Stella was right. The universe was indeed trying to tell them something. Lol. (Wednesday 1 February 2017; 19:42)

Re: Tommy Mottola (71,884) (71,923) by Terna from Nigeria I feel the same way about Tommy too. He did irreparable psychological damage to Mariah. Something changed in her for the worse, that free spirit she had almost childlike is not there anymore and it's traceable to Mottolla. However, Butterfly is also I guess a direct result of that time and also her strongest body of work. (Pain brings out the best in artists. Mary J. Blige anyone? Lol.) It was on Butterfly I got to know the real Mariah, and that was when I connected to her on a more personal level. I'm glad she shook Tommy off. (Wednesday 1 February 2017; 19:39)

Promotion for the single (71,922) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I hope they have a string of promotional appearances lined up right after the single releases and this should include live performances on the shows. They are doing a good job with releasing little teasers everyday, until the release, maybe next they can release a small sneak peak of the video like they did during the #Beautiful promotions. Then once the song drops, Mariah should go on some important shows and perform it live. Also they should try to get her on some of the award shows. (Wednesday 1 February 2017; 18:01)

I don't (71,921) by Lara from Middle East I saw a meme where the cover was edited and the single name was "I don't (know her)" haha. The Lambs are even shadier than MC. (Wednesday 1 February 2017; 17:44)

Re: I Wish You Well (71,913) (71,920) by Edward from USA I agree with you. The song is so deep that Stella came out crying out of the recording session from such deepness. It was innovative having Stella as a back-ground singer. If you listen closely with headphones on, you could clearly hear Stella's voice, it's a very subtle but distinctive pig-like vocal layered sound. Like a pig that's about to be slaughtered, but by stretching the oink, it sounds like an Alpha woman really in pain after having been dumped. Pure genius. (Wednesday 1 February 2017; 17:43)

Re: Whose the liar: Mariah or James? (71,917) (71,919) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada That's the thing though MimiL. Mariah wants the drama. She's feeding it. Doesn't mean every lyric in "I Don't" is actually truthfully about James and their relationship, what matters is that it looks like it is. Don't know about anyone else, but manipulation tactics do nothing to create investment and sure she has done it before... this one just feels different. I'm more interested in Mariah getting real, but it's her choice. (Wednesday 1 February 2017; 17:42)

Re: Whose the liar: Mariah or James? (71,917) (71,918) by RibbonB from USA Actually she did admit to MIAM being about her marriage and where she had been the past few years. She denied that Infinity was about Nick when she was called on it though, even though that was obvious. Now when it is more appropriate that she writes more universal songs, she tacks it onto the latest subject in her fabricated world. It just seems lately she is caught up in the press and what gets her clicks on TMZ etc., that she is so far removed from reality. She needs to collect herself and stop being so fake, but trying to present it as reality. Pick one or the other perhaps, but don't expect everyone to blindly accept both. She has a huge disconnect RN. (Wednesday 1 February 2017; 17:25)
