Through the Rain acapella (71,221) by Terna from Nigeria On Instagram there's a clip of the final chorus of TTR. You guys need to hear it. Wow. Mariah's voice is massive. I was pleasantly surprised. Now I want the full version. (Friday 13 January 2017; 12:07)

Close My Eyes vs Camouflage (71,220) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Both songs represent difficult times in Mariah's life and both represent the collapse of a marriage. To honest for when I hear both songs it puts me in a sad because I look at it from MC's perspective as a writer it both songs represent pain. I like both songs for different reasons and it also depends on my mood. Songs like these two makes me appreciate Mariah the songwriter even more. (Friday 13 January 2017; 8:13)

Re: New MW clip (71,206) (71,219) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I actually wouldn't be surprised if they re-shot scenes to add in that Tanaka "reaction". Simply because in the first episode (or second) they had that whole scene with Tanaka in her dressing room trying to pass it off as the SSF tour but in reality it was shot just months ago. Then the scenes they show in the "still to come" part after the show has that beach scene, which looks like it's from the those infamous Hawaii beach frolicking pictures were taking. So there is no doubt they edited a lot of crap. I also want to know why Tanaka was at the dress fitting? Shouldn't it just be really close people (in Mariah's case that's Stella and Mishka) and maybe your assistant? Why would you feel the need to bring your back up dancer along? There is absolutely no line drawn between Mariah's professional and personal life and that's a mature problem. She tends to surround herself with people on her payroll, people who'll never be completely honest with her. Anyways that dress was gorgeous though, everything from the design, the exquisite embroidery/embellishment, the lovely soft dusty pink color, the fit, the cut. Everything was perfect. Mariah would look so beautiful in it. Monroe was also looking so gorgeous in the matching dress. She'll grow up to be a stunner like her mommy. (Friday 13 January 2017; 6:31)

Re: Article: Mel B wonders if Mariah "doe" (71,207) (71,218) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mel B is probably the most irrelevant member of the Spice Girls, and I haven't kept up with them since I was in grade 2 when they used to be popular. Her opinions don't matter but of course she'll try to get a moment from the trending topic that is Mariah's NYE performance, to try and get some relevancy for 5 seconds. (Friday 13 January 2017; 6:24)

Re: NYE (71,208) (71,217) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter This also isn't the first time she said something like "Mariah is the biggest star here". This is something an established artist wouldn't need to keep saying because people already know that, only wanna be up and coming people would do something immature like that. Mariah has never spoken about herself like that, there were a lot of other big celebs there and it's disrespectful to them even if they are not bigger than Mariah. This whole "she is doing you a favor by showing up" just makes her sound more and more like a diva. This isn't the brand that was associated with Mariah before. (Friday 13 January 2017; 6:21)

Re: Docu-series (71,202) (71,216) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada Exactly Matty. 100% agree. The drama focus is not what the draw is, you don't need gimmicks for people to watch. Authenticity allows people to relate and ultimately choose to journey with you. Look at someone like Ed Sheeran. He is an artist I love as well, and with him, everything is as genuine as it gets. People want to know what the real deal is for people. Those who truly love Mariah aren't hung up on her current vocal ability. People just want a real look at what actually goes on. I have said MC has self-esteem issues and addiction issues (whether it be working too much or too many splashes). Doesn't mean she deserves to be talked about and treated like she's horrible. Life is messy. We haven't walked a mile in her shoes. Underneath any questionable behavior on the outside, is always the desire for connection and acceptance on the inside.

Billboard and Ed Sheran (71,215) by B from USA Billboard and Ed are defending Mariah. Billboard has an article that explains how and why this snafu occurred and how everyone lypsyncs at these events and how the weather and venue factored into it. Ed said what happened to Mariah could happen to anyone and that people should move on and that it's being blown out of proportion. (Friday 13 January 2017; 2:56)

Re: Article: Mel B wonders if Mariah "doe" (71,207) (71,214) by B from USA She's a Spice Girl and a judge on America's Got Talent which Nick is the host of. (Friday 13 January 2017; 2:40)

ED Sheeran sticks up for Mariah (71,213) by Billy from England, UK Just seen this. How nice of him, he and Mariah should write a song together, it would be amazing and another #1 I'm sure. (Friday 13 January 2017; 1:56)

Re: New MW clip (71,206) (71,211) by RibbonB from USA They were planting traps all along, with drunk clips with M. sussone and the help, the cake scene, etc. They may have spliced him in later to punch up the storyline, but M. never acted like she was engaged about to be getting married except when she posed with Packer on vacation. Otherwise she acted very single. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 23:31)

Re: Mel B (71,205) (71,209) by B from USA My thoughts exactly. Pot meet kettle. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 22:35)

NYE (71,208) by B from USA A technical snafu isn't going to ruin Mariah's career twenty seven years into it. It's actually done the opposite. She's trending and people are streaming her back catalogue which speaks for itself. The reality show complete with fabricated story lines and actors, the diva attitude, and Stella are why the unwashed masses on Twitter are ragging on her. Stella doesn't understand that the divadom is an act that Mariah is in on and that Mariah has a self deprecating sense of humor or at least she did before Stella. Stella saying Mariah did them a favor by performing and that she was the biggest star there (which technically was true) is unflattering as are all of her comments about the debacle. Mariah needs to admit it was her teams fault and perform Thank God I Found You on GMA and fire Stella. Mariah needs to drop the diva act and ditch the diamonds and sing. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 22:33)

Re: Article: Mel B wonders if Mariah "doe" (71,197) (71,207) by Lannister from USA Serious question: who is Mel B and why does anyone care what she thinks on any topic? (Thursday 12 January 2017; 22:29)

New MW clip (71,206) by Mara from United States So the latest clip of MW is out and can somone answer a question I have in comeplete sincerity? In the clip you see Monroe trying on her dress for the wedding and we see Mariah the mother gushing over her beautiful little girl, very nice moment. Then we see Mariah, supposedly trying on her gown for her final fitting before her wedding to Packer. Why then, do we see Tanaka planted there looking unhappy? Wasn't this when MW was to be focused on the storyline of her wedding to Packer and touring at the same time. I would think the final fitting for your gown would be a private moment and forgive me, but why have your dancer there for that. He looked strangely out of place. Was this the plot they were going for all along? As a back up? To stir things up? Was this scene just edited in to look like he was there watching? Does it look that way to you guys? I mean at this point we know it's a staged mess, but I don't know where this can go from here. Where is the footage when we saw cameras following MC around and she went to that Elton John fundraiser looking so beautiful in that black dress. We need more of that, the superstar side. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 21:49)

Mel B (71,205) by Mirage from Unicornatopia I would like for Mel B to comment on the vocal decline of her own voice. Oh wait, my bad. You need a voice to start with, don't you? (Thursday 12 January 2017; 21:24)

Re: Kelly Price has slammed Mariah time after time (71,193) (71,204) by Andrew from UK Kelly slammed Mariah? I hope they didn't share pins. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 19:56)

Re: Latest Stella interview (71,198) (71,203) by MusicfanJ from Germany I can't wait for the day Stella gets fired or at least is in the background where she belongs. But I have hope that Mariah notices how bad her manager is. Sometimes I think she only choose her because Stella is the complete opposite of Tommy. (No compliment.) (Thursday 12 January 2017; 19:53)

Re: Docu-series (71,191) (71,202) by Matty from Vancouver Canada I've really been enjoying Mariah's World, but 100% agree with you. That clip is exactly what I was hoping for: specifics about her voice, what she does to maintain, more of the creation of her music. That's the problem, Stella isn't a music person. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 19:38)

James Packer / NYE (71,201) by Dan from US My boyfriend, non Mariah fan, after everything that happend, said to me: Did anyone ever think it was her ex James Packer who paid someone off to sabatoge her? Nevermind Dick clark productions. Hmm. Iv'e also lost complete interest in Mariah recently from her show to all the people surrounding her, it seems way to dramatic and I can't deal with her manager and her whole family way too much. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 17:33)

Re: Docu-series (71,191) (71,200) by Luke from United Kingdom Definitely. Like background info on her work and how she looks after her voice and how her voice operates. Also that outfit is everything. She looks like someone from a royal family, so classy and elegant. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 17:18)

Re: Latest Stella interview (71,192) (71,198) by Dennis from Miami, FL Tommy at least was in love or obsessed with Mariah. Stella? She doesn't give a damn about Mariah. All she needs is more and more attention and money. At some point I thought that Mariah had made a deal to make Stella famous. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 16:53)

Re: Article: Mel B wonders if Mariah "doe(71,195) (71,197) by Dennis from Miami, FL I also didn't see any problems with whistles. She has problems with other registers. I'm more worried about her high voice. If she had lost the whistles I would not be upset. I wish her chest and head voice to be intact. During Gliiter time some tabloids were speculating that she had lost her whistle register due to tranquilizers and antidepressants. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 16:32)

Re: Article: Mel B wonders if Mariah "doesn't have that voice" (71,195) (71,196) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I too think the backing track has the whistles to have more impact when she whistles over them live. Regardless, I wouldn't blame her if she even thought of just lipping it because she didn't want to risk it on live TV. But the whistles weren't loud enough so I think it's safe to assume that she was indeed going to whistle over the backing track. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 16:02)

Re: Article: Mel B wonders if Mariah "doesn't have that voice" (71,183) (71,195) by Chicago Lamb from USA She doesn't lip the high notes, she sings over them. Mariah sings effortlessly in her whistle register. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 15:27)

Re: sue (71,190) (71,194) by Carlos from Brazil Mariah's image in Brazil is also a little tarnished after the cancellation of the tour and the NYE. The Brazilian journalist José Norberto Flesch who is known as a guru about upcoming tours and events in music was asked if Mariah could be booked for Rock in Rio someday and his answer was "No. Rock in Rio is a festival of success." These are rough days. (Thursday 12 January 2017; 12:06)
