Re: Uhhhh (68,038) (68,050) by Mara from United States The middle finger non the less. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 23:46)

Re: This is why Mariah is still wearing the ring (68,036) (68,049) by Mara from United States Yes RibbonB. I got a kick out of the one article that said a few days ago - Mariah out for intimate dinner with dancer. How on earth is it an intimate dinner when Stella and her squad are always in tow every single place Mariah goes. Not very intimate in my book. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 23:45)

To tune in or not (68,048) by Marissa from USA I'm strongly leaning on the side of not tuning into Mariah's World. On one hand, I like to watch Mariah's interviews, specials, etc. On the other hand, tuning in would only reinforce and reward all of the lowbrow stunts that she has done in an effort to get viewers. We can't complain about all of the antics that she has done/allowed to happen (thottish Insta posts, daily Tanaka sightings, prenup exposures, inconvenience fee demands etc.), yet give her the exact reward that she is seeking by tuning in every week. If you do so, don't get surprised if she doesn't change. People only stop doing things when the costs outweigh the benefits. If your reaction to behavior that you claim is unacceptable is to continue to indirectly pay a multimillionaire's bills, ultimately the jokes on you because you give that person no incentive to change. If you are fine with the latest publicity stunts, then by all means tune in. If you are truly fed up with the antics, just know that tuning in encourages her to give more of the behavior that you allegedly can't stand. The more views that she gets, the more she will feel like all of the soul-selling and integrity-trading was worth it. My goal is not to take money out of her pockets, but to send a message. The lambs have a lot of power as viewers and consumers but many of us are so busy letting other people make us feel like we have a moral obligation to support everything she does like it or not, that we end up wasting our voice and only reinforcing the things that supposedly make us miserable. Some people think that being a fan means supporting everything the artist does even if it could end up being detrimental. Let me put my mentality this way: if I know that someone I love wants to commit suicide, I'm not going to load the gun with bullets for them. I'm going to snatch the gun away. Period.

Nip slip (68,047) by Lila from United States Is just OMG. Honey, can you stop Mariah? Just stop. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 19:20)

Clash interview (68,046) by RibbonB from USA Sorry in my previous post I said Complex interview, but I meant this one from Clash in July. I was going on memory, but in fact in Clash, this was stated. "In her wake, a teeming entourage follow - largely female, with similar aplomb, clutching oversized handbags prepped for an assault on Avenue Montaigne, the most glamorous shopping street in Paris. Then comes a camera crew, recording this hurried getaway. And finally, a young man wearing only a dressing gown comes hurtling through the lobby - on crutches - and dives into another car." We know who had crutches this summer. The interview is posted here on MCA. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 17:29)

Re: This is why Mariah is still wearing the ring (68,039) (68,045) by Licia from USA Mariah is still wearing that ring for one of these two reasons in my opinion. One she's being petty and just trying to mess with James or two they are still together, she's still marrying him, and she's just playing with us and the media. I personally think she's just being childish and petty. If this relationship ended as badly as claimed I don't see the point in keeping or wearing the ring other than you're trying to mess with him. I guess you all will find out when the show airs. Report back because I won't be watching. Lol. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 17:06)

Re: This is the real Mariah (68,018) (68,044) by MusicfanJ from Germany Natalia I understand what you mean. But I think this is not the real Mariah we are seeing sadly for too long. If you're right then Mariah is the best actress in the world and she should get an Oscar for it. It's not possible to play a role for let's say from 1990 until 2003. After that Mariah changed a bit because of whatever. But we all do from time to time. The good dressing from the past was maybe because of her team. But her lovely smile, her talking, her caring and the moments where she was insecure were real. Musically I don't know what to expect. There are so many superstars who feel lonely inside. Maybe this is one reason why she loves Marylin Monroe so much. If I look at Mariah lately I see a lot of sadness and desperation which she tries to hide by this freaking circus. Her failed relationships must be the hell too for her. And then the family drama, it's too much pain. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 17:05)

Re: Chris Rock comedy on prenups (68,026) (68,043) by Licia from USA Lol I love Chris Rock. That's one of my favorite specials. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 16:58)

Re: This is why Mariah is still wearing the ring (68,039) (68,042) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter For her sake, I hope the twist isn't that she got married because that would make so many of her fans lose respect for her because she has gone on record blasting reality show people so many times. It'd be super cheap of her to pull a stunt like that. But the timing is very convenient. That just a month and half before it's release, the rumors started. That's when the promotions start. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 16:26)

New pics (68,041) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I didn't even bother finding a lot of pictures for this series, so here is picture one, full ensemble moment. Here is picture two. All I have to say is her face looks gorgeous in the pictures. Very youthful. The ensemble, is um, interesting? This is Mariah with Bryan sending a message to James. I mean why else did the ring go from the ring finger to the middle (yes yes you call me crazy again, don't care but can anyone of you real lambs explain it? I think not. The first 2 pictures I showed had the ring on her ring finger, then by the time she's in the car it's half way through her middle finger, she's flaunting it while pose kicking? Sweet message. Another "Manaka" moment. This is Mariah with DJ Khaled. Mariah on Khaled's snapchat. Enjoy. I'm still waiting on the "caught kissing in the backs seat/back booth picture. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 16:23)

Article: Mariah Carey suffers wardrobe malfunction (68,040) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Yet another nip slip. Shocker. We've had so many in the last 2 years, we can now make a "Top 10 festive nip slip moments" list/ranking like we do with her songs. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 16:15)

Re: This is why Mariah is still wearing the ring (68,036) (68,039) by May from Denmark Yes, the whole Tanaka thing does sound like a stunt. I didn't think the reason but you could be onto something that it is to build up a momentum for the show. I remember when at first Mariah was like "it's a docu-series, it's about the tours" but when asked more recently she adds "there's a lot of drama and stuff". Perhaps she did decide to go for the reality style cheap drama thing. I recall part of it was about the wedding... what if it is like someone mentioned and she does marry Packer. Haha, plot twist, over gasping. The last pictures show her with the so-talked ring back in the wedding finger. Teasing? Playing? Taking the media for fools? Making fans more confused? *throws hands up in the air* (Sunday 6 November 2016; 15:20)

Uhhhh (68,038) by Lila from United States Switching an engagement ring to the opposite hand, continually sliding it down midway, the length of your finger, and playing with it, immediately after news hit that your relationship is over, are not the actions of a woman who's working things out with her fiancé. They hadn't seen each other in a month but that ring stayed planted on her left hand but when the news broke all of a sudden it found a new home? Ok. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 13:51)

Re: This is why Mariah is still wearing the ring (68,030) (68,036) by RibbonB from USA I don't know if she is dating Bran Flake, but they know exactly what they have been doing, from all the leaked videos, of them dancing, grinding, robe sharing, drinking and clubbing together, the lap dance video first leaked over the summer, to the grape feeding on Jimmy Kimmel. M. was specifically asked about him on WHL with Andy and she played coy and said which dancer? They are all tall, or something like that. So her team has been setting the tone about him for months now, without mentioning his name even when asked. He is even mentioned in the Complex article, not by name yet, but as mystery half dressed male dancer hops into the vehicle with Mariah. But now all of a sudden when the news breaks he is seen out to multiple dinners with her and even trick or treating. Please, dahling, this is set up for the show to develop maximum ratings, or she has been bold faced cheating all year and wants to hurt James. Either way her behavior for that mess alone might warn a man thinking about marriage. Let's see how they act in Hawaii over the holidays just in time for the premier. This is just what I remember, there may have been more, like the fact that Eddie Morales mentions him by name congratulating him on his new comeup. This all looks pre-planned and M./Stella doesn't care how she really looks, she just wants people to accept their narrative. Also I forgot to add, Mariah has never been just out with James. Stella probably would have been on the honeymoon, if they ever made it that far, Bryan too if she could finagle it. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 12:50)

Apologize for typos (68,035) by May from Denmark Sorry. I suck writing in the mobile. Title meant to say "new music". Love you all. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 12:45)

Nice to know nee music prep (68,034) by May from Denmark I was so glad to hear in that small E. interview the day she performed in Toronto that she is indeed working on new material. So in the end is not all dinners and casual appearances for the paps. I wonder what kind of path she is taking musicaly. With all the things going on I wonder. I love Mariah and lately her public character seems to be getting cartoonier (I think I just made up that word haha). I don't care her outfits in the least, almost inspired in Dale Bozzio but contemporary as Gaga, one could say she is looking "Gagaesque", aren't so many looking like that lately including Bey-Bey and miss Spears? Why does it bothet so much when Mariah does it, cause she is even more daring street-wise? Anyway, going out of topic. I care zero her clothing choices though this very last one with the see through leggings may upset some, I care about her music and I wonder if Mariah still has anything to write anymore. If we think about it her she has everything and except for a romantic turmoil what else is there to write from her? She can't write anymore Make It Happens, can she? Anyone recalls TGTBAW? Wouldn't a song like that fit perfectly with what is going on today? Such an underrated song and so up to date lyrically. I did like her last effort for Empire, sounded sexy. I know some didn't like it and the background may have sounded dated, but the melody was beautiful and the lyrics were nice though I could see an improvement. Mariah used to write so good but last years she has fallen for too much slang, brand names and naming people I'm not interested in. Mariah needs to do it personal but relatable. I loved BGK but all those names, I don't care if you slept in RaeRae couch Mariah, find a word for it so that I can follow the song in my personal way, you have your life. I want a meaningful song. I love party songs, who didn't love ILT, the slangs were on point in there at least. I don't know what to expect anymore. Maybe nothing and just wait? Haha. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 12:44)

Re: This is why Mariah is still wearing the ring (68,030) (68,033) by May from Denmark What can James possibly get out of this planted story? It doesn't even sound like something he would allow to do. He is a very private guy. TMZ while not retracted the article about the prenup it has updated, in very small letters at the end of the article, that Packer denies the things said in the prenup. Paraphrasing because I don't recall the exact words but you can check it. I'm guessing TMZ (and the DailyFail) are not putting them down because is giving them clicks and comments. Here is the thing. The only confirmation we got is from Mariah camp that they argued and are trying to work it out and from Packer's camp that the prenup is untrue. That's it. The rest is gossip, rumors, speculations. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 12:25)

Re: This is why Mariah is still wearing the ring (68,030) (68,032) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The first statement had no mention of Tanaka. It said "excessive spending and Packer's unwillingness to be a part of the show". The rumors about Tanaka started with the "James is mentally unstable, he has been for a while and at one point he even took Bryan to the side and told him to stay away. He also got Caesar's to ban him." Also as far as I know, Bryan is no longer the creative director. Anthony Burrell came back few months back and has since taken over. He announced it via Instagram if I'm not wrong. Aside from that, I'd like to know if your post is a theory or is their a source? Genuine question, because if I think along the lines of your theory it sounds believable. However like I mentioned, there are some inconsistencies but then again I might be wrong. So yes is there a source? (Sunday 6 November 2016; 11:12)

Re: TMZ prenup article (68,027) (68,031) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Same reason why she is dragging Bryan along with her outside every night and calling the paparazzi while also flaunting the ring on her middle finger knowing it would be photographed. Also same reason why she allowed Bryan to release those unflattering videos of them being cozy and then him wearing her robe. I don't know what the reason is but it's quite upsetting to see these being public and her team not doing anything about it and instead putting more fuel on the flames. Think about it, couldn't all these have been kept private? Didn't we read more about Mariah's 1 and a half year relationship with James than her multi year marriage to Nick? Then look at the amount of publicity this breakup is getting while we got zero peep in her divorce with Nick. I think all this is a ploy to get people to tune in to the show. Which is sad because she would have gotten viewers eitherways. I mean remember the special she did for MIAM? Where she did interviews and performed some of the songs? She got around 3.5 million viewers even though it wasn't promoted at all (like the rest of MIAM). Her Christmas special also got so many viewers. Mariah's World would have gotten the same. But they thought unleashing Kardashian style drama would be a better move. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 11:06)

This is why Mariah is still wearing the ring (68,030) by Nikki from usa I went through all the actual statements on this breakup stuff for the past 2 days and it explains why Mariah isn't removing the ring. We don't know about "problems" they've had in the past or how they've been handled. But, this is the current story: Mariah and Packer had a fight in Greece. They hadn't seen each other since, but set aside a time to meet up and discuss things. Packer blew it off at the last minute and said he couldn't do it then. Soon after, Women's Day, was the first publication to state they broke up claiming Packer dumped Mariah amidst rumors of overspending, and reports of Mariah's "backup dancer". The story seems to be planted by Packer's people. Gossip everywhere caught on like wildfire. Mariah didn't think anything of it at first, which is why Stella commented on the fight. Mariah was still waiting for a meet up and hasn't been able to get him to return calls, so now she's thinking this engagement off story is true. There's no closure and Mariah's still not sure what to expect since they have yet to talk since their fight, apparently, she had originally assumed it was a spat and they would be getting back together. Just a side note - Mariah and her team know who Bryan Tanaka is and I doubt they would be reporting him as her "back up dancer" or refuse to use his name. He's her choreographer and lead. As long as she still has her residency and shows to do he will be around as he has been for this past entire year since he was promoted. Mariah tends to treat her team like family and that's not going to change because now there's gossip. Mariah has never been out with just Tanaka. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 7:51)

Re: TMZ prenup article (68,024) (68,029) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter No no I know that, infact it would be dumb to marry without a pre-nup for those who have as much money as these two. I remember thinking that Mariah got married to Nick without a prenup and so that would be foolish but turns out they had a clear cut one. My point is that it is unlikely that James would lead those details because it shows him in a bad light especially with "Mariah is responsible for buying things for her kids" and some other details. Infact there are pre-nups more iron clad than this and all but obviously the parties involved, especially the one who is drafting it, won't want it leaked. If anything either TMZ got ahold of it (which is unlikely too because it wasn't public record and they never signed it) or someone from inside these 2 camps did it. So it is possible (in my opinion) that Stella thought this would be a good move to show how controlling James is. But at the end of the day it makes Mariah look foolish yet again. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 5:02)

Re: Comment on Daily Mail (68,011) (68,028) by Malcolm from Asia Patricia might have short comings but I still think that she can help Mariah because in times of this, Mariah needs a familiar face from her life, someone that knows her well. At the end of the day, she is her mother, just the presence of her will help Mariah and of course with the help of professionals that can guide her all through out. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 4:38)

Re: TMZ prenup article (68,020) (68,027) by B from USA Why would Mariah allow Stella to release stories that paint her in such an unflattering way. Every story since the initial split broke has painted her as a greedy gold digger looking for a payday. I don't understand what the end goal of any of this was or is. Unless it's a storyline of Mariah's World. Mariah should have kept her private live private which was believed to be why her marriage with Nick failed. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 3:16)

Chris Rock comedy on prenups (68,026) by RibbonB from USA Lol this is the cleanest version. I think it's funny, but comedians are coldblooded and brutal with their jokes. Well, some of the best ones are. The longer version is full of cussing and discusses the OJ case. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 2:54)

Scientology dude (68,025) by RibbonB from USA So it turns out Scientology Tommy was at the same Ratpac party as Mimi when she had to leather boobs out outfit on. Here she is with the ambassador or whomever the guy in the middle is. Supposedly Scientology dude was there to spy on Brett and Mariah. I am sure Mariah was never going to marry a guy with Scientology ties and almost equally positive that JP had no real intention of marrying someone he could not control or bring into the fold. Ick, what a mess. (Sunday 6 November 2016; 1:57)
