Mariah Carey One Sweet Day is saved (68,331) by Sheila from United States She still has the record, thank God. (Tuesday 15 November 2016; 13:51)

Re: Article: Teyana Taylor joins Mariah for the diva holiday special (68,328) (68,330) by Musti from UK I agree Licia. I'm not impressed with the line-up so far. Patti is amazing of course but she is also Mariah's comfort zone. If Teyena is any indication, VH1 will fill the remaining slots with other C-listers that no one really cares about. This will potentially not be the kind of show that I had hoped it would be. But I'm definitely ready for a new Mariah/Patti collab. Both singers make excellent duet partners, with each other and with other singers. (Tuesday 15 November 2016; 12:12)

Article: Teyana Taylor joins Mariah for the diva holiday special (68,328) by Licia from USA See there they go messing up the line up already with the new "divas". Don't get me wrong, Teyana Taylor has talent and she has a couple catchy songs, but she's more known now for how quickly she went back to a size zero after her pregnancy than she is for her music.

Dem kids (68,327) by Licia from USA That's an uber cute pic of the her and the kids. That's the one thing I miss since I unfollowed her on Instagram. I'm always here for the babies. I'll just have to try to ignore the Boomerang clips of her breasts on a table and the smug pics with Stella. Lol. (Tuesday 15 November 2016; 2:05)

Re: New promo for France (68,307) (68,326) by Marissa from USA I second that. I'm done. The nightly Mariah and Bryan sightings are having the opposite effect that they are intending on me, I'm bored af with them. My passion for Mariah has drastically declined. I've even been forgetting to check the messageboard lately. It's too hard to watch your favorite singer who always seemed like she had integrity, pimp herself out for cheap and fleeting attention and money. I would rather downgrade to checking up on her every once in a while rather than watching a daily play-by-play of her life, only to walk away feeling frustrated, pissed off, disgusted, embarrassed and ignored as a fan. Call me when either: a. Stella get's fired b. Mariah wins/gets nominated for a major award. c. Mariah puts out new music. d. Mariah takes on a new and challenging acting role. Those are literally the only 4 things that I give a f*** about at this point. I don't want to touch her personal life with a 10-foot pole. It's a mess. Career only, like it used to be.

Good outcome? (68,324) by RibbonB from USA I can predict one good outcome for this show, but it would be a big spoiler to mention my thoughts. The set up thus far for this show makes it seem bleak and very contrived IMO. Whatever happens, I hope it is worth it to her. Again, I hope Stella fades away like yesterday.

Re: Mariah's Wack World (68,322) (68,323) by RibbonB from USA Unfortunately it may take all of those things you mentioned because she is turning off a lot of the people who would have watched it, her fans. But she is all in, so best wishes to her children. I don't give two sticks about Stella and crew. I have said from the beginning that I think this show is a terrible idea, but she is trolling like Trump and she will have to go through with it. I hope it will be far shorter than four years though. I hope for great music sometime in the future. (Tuesday 15 November 2016; 0:05)

Mariah's World (68,322) by Luke from United Kingdom Lets be honest, in this day and age people aren't going to watch a show about Mariah unless there is drama and she knows it. Hopefully it's just a dash of drama at the minute to get people talking. I'm thinking this might lead to an album next year some time. I'll be happy as long as she doesn't have a sex tape leaked, doesn't get married and divorced within a month, has a child and calls it South or gets butt implants which could pass as a side table and declares it as "natural".

Re: Christmas compilations (68,306) (68,321) by Bill from the UK I don't know if it still applies, but in the original Sony days, Mariah never appeared on any compilation albums. It was not unusual for many of the big name artists to not be on compilations, it was a technique to encourage album sales. Also, if the compilation is not by Sony, then I imagine it would be quite expensive for another record company to license such a popular song. (Monday 14 November 2016; 22:53)

Re: New promo for France (68,300) (68,320) by Lila from United States Speechless. (Monday 14 November 2016; 19:57)

Re: New promo for France (68,300) (68,319) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada I don't really look at the publicity machine tactics as solely a Mariah issue. We make up society. We get to choose whether to engage or not in these types of games, and until we decide we've had enough of this kind of approach and look deeper, it's going to keep happening. We can't just sit and blame or judge the people who feel pressured to compete in the arena, or who feel there is something to gain out of it. (Monday 14 November 2016; 18:44)

New promo for France (68,318) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Oh, honey. Now it's like she's deliberately doing this just to piss us off. (Monday 14 November 2016; 15:36)

Re: Christmas compilations (68,306) (68,317) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Wrapped In Red is golden. Especially that title track. So lovely. And Michael Buble's Christmas album may potentially outsell Mariah's first Christmas offering if it keeps selling the way it does. Jazz-pop fanbases are very loyal. (Monday 14 November 2016; 15:31)

Re: New promo for France (68,311) (68,316) by Edouard from France I meant "she's no cookie-cutter type of girl nor is she the opposite as some of us tend to want her to be". Let her be Mariah. That's how we fell in love with her after all. (Monday 14 November 2016; 14:24)

Re: When will it get back to the music? (68,313) (68,315) by G.G. from USA Agreed. I checked out when all the drama with the Packer breakup was happening. I have no interest in this crap. For someone who has repeatedly dogged reality tv shows, Mariah's life has turned into one. Congratulations, I guess ? (Monday 14 November 2016; 13:00)

Billboard streaming rule (68,314) by Malcolm from Asia So Alicia Keys' new album debuts at No. 2 with 50,000 units, 42,000 in traditional album sales. (And there's no propaganda that "Alicia Keys' album flopped" or something from the media). Just so unfair in Mariah's part considering that she had much higher sales (59,000). Thing is, that rule were implemented in December 2014, basically MIAM didn't benefit from that change. If that rule were just debuted earlier, I think MIAM will debut somewhere in 70-90k units and it could reach No. 2 behind Coldplay's album. (Monday 14 November 2016; 12:44)

When will it get back to the music? (68,313) by Sheila from United States I'm so bored with Packer, her outfits, her wigs, her drama. When will it get back to the music, the lyrics, the notes, the heartbreaking ballads? [...] I miss it being about the music. (Monday 14 November 2016; 11:49)

Re: New promo for France (68,300) (68,311) by Edouard from France I think it's quite okay. 8.55 p.m on a Friday night is good. It's [...] be a global event and I'm quite excited. I believe the trailer is super misleading on purpose just to create a buzz. At the end of the day Mariah is Mariah. She ain't [..] change who she is: she ain't no cookie-cutter type of girl, nor is she the opposite as some of us tend to say. (Monday 14 November 2016; 10:30)

Re: New promo for France (68,300) (68,310) by RibbonB from USA Too messy. (Monday 14 November 2016; 8:38)

Re: Article: Mariah's ex James to blast her in "tell-all" book? (68,304) (68,309) by Mara from United States Completely understand and agree with you RibbonB. (Monday 14 November 2016; 4:13)

Re: New promo for France (68,300) (68,308) by IfWeeeeee from Over There Mariah on Bryan: "He has a huge crush on me." Remember Nick? This woman never learns. (Monday 14 November 2016; 3:57)

Re: New promo for France (68,300) (68,307) by Licia from USA After seeing that I'm 100% sure I'm not going to watch. Just call her Mariah Kardashian. Lol. (Monday 14 November 2016; 3:01)

Christmas compilations (68,306) by Todd from Melbourne, Australia Has anybody else noticed that Mariah's "All I Want for Christmas" (or any other of her Christmas songs for that matter) is very rarely on any of these "Best Christmas Songs of All Time" type collections that get released every year? It's arguably the most successful Christmas song of all time, so I often wonder why it doesn't get included. Whether it's Mariah's call, thinking that it will drive people to purchase her album/single, or if it's the industry that deliberately avoid her music? On the subject of Christmas music - I've recently discovered Kelly Clarkson's "Wrapped in Red", and it easily join's Mariah and Buble's offerings in my opinion. (Monday 14 November 2016; 2:47)

Hilarious tweet (68,305) by RibbonB from USA This made me laugh. I hope the link comes out right. This guy used pics of Mariah: Me before November 8, and after November 8th. (Monday 14 November 2016; 0:30)

Re: Article: Mariah's ex James to blast her in "tell-all" book? (68,302) (68,304) by RibbonB from USA But when I say have them around men so publicly and quickly, I am speaking for what is proven wise for most women, not just M. But she is no exception with or without so many handlers around. I hate to read the stories about women getting caught up in money, or worst being hard up for money and making snap decisions without proper regard for their sake let alone their children. I am just speaking in general to that point. (Monday 14 November 2016; 0:21)
