Re: Mariah's World on hold at E (64,074) (64,080) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter People give way too much credit for Mariah's career to Stella. Yes Mariah got rave reviews for her recent performances but that's not Stella's doing, it's Mariah working on her voice. The Rockefeller incident must have hurt her ego because people were writing her off so she decided to pull her voice together. Vegas was already in place before Stella. The stories in the tabloids about Mariah are more or less the same. The only good thing was Morgan's interview was put out before it could catch fire but that may have been the work of her PR team and not Stella because after her PR team was fired Alison's story came out and nothing was done to put that away. Instead Stella focused on getting the lambs off her own back by making Mariah to release a statement saying how Stella is making her rich and how she is uber excited about the reality show (because people were blaming Stella for cheapening Mariah's image). Then let's not forget how Stella interacts with tabloids, she actually bothers clapping back at mere tabloids which is way beneath Mariah. Something someone from Mariah's camp shouldn't even bother with. Now we don't have announcements for a major tour for which the tickets are being already sold out and a reality show which has no air date. (Friday 8 July 2016; 8:45)

Re: Mariah's World on hold at E (64,075) (64,079) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Hahaha this got me laughing so hard. Both are really solid points and can actually be the reason of the alleged delay. Another point would be Mishka. or "Mini Mariah" as Stella likes to say, was not given enough face time.

Re: Mariah's World on hold at E (64,069) (64,078) by 123 from USA Curious minds want to know, if you really have a boy over at E. that supplied you with this information, why did you ask the board a few posts ago if anyone could confirm the rumored June date. Wouldn't your boy already know that wasn't the date? Just wondering. (Friday 8 July 2016; 6:24)

Re: Mariah's World on hold at E (64,069) (64,077) by G.G. from USA Good. The show would only make the public dislike her even more. The general public don't find her diva antics funny. A lot of lambs are sick of it, too. (Friday 8 July 2016; 4:03)

Re: Mariah's World on hold at E (64,070) (64,076) by Malcolm from Asia Couldn't agree more, there are so many to pin-point right now, well what else is new. Like in her social media, the recent posts are badly edited and the worst part is Mariah was the only one they edit so she looks like a cartoon or something with the people she's with. Just look at this, her legs come on, I can't even handle the fact that we are all seeing this from a legend, a superstar, "the biggest-selling female artist of all time" and yet she can't hire some great professionals. It all gets tiring now, it goes on and on and on, I can't see substance from her at all and it's sad that I watch her old stuff on YouTube just to satisfy myself from what's going on with her right now because I want to remember why I got to love that woman.

Re: Mariah's World on hold at E (64,069) (64,075) by Tevin from USA That probably means either someone screwed up and filmed the wrong side of Mariah's face, or Stella wanted to have more face time in the series. (Thursday 7 July 2016; 22:31)

Re: Mariah's World on hold at E (64,070) (64,074) by Musti from UK You raise good points. Stella is from a TV background, right? If MW can't even get an air date due to "difficult dynamics" (whatever the hell that means), I'd really begin to question Stella's worth right about now. In this case, I doubt any single/album release would be properly handled either. I was very excited last year when Vegas had proved her voice is back and earlier this year when SSFT garnered amazing reviews. I felt like it was all building up to something special. Now all I see is destruction. The outfits, the sloppiness, the ego, her social media, her endless reliance on the MC brand (which has become nothing more than a source of ridicule, really), Stella potentially turning into yet another yes-man, and the list goes on. I don't want the current impressive condition of her voice to go to waste. But she doesn't seem to want to leave her comfort zone. She won't even have the other side of her face filmed, after all these years. At this point I don't really expect chart success or a comeback. I'll support anything she releases, as I always do. But overall, I don't think her career is going anywhere. It's sad. Please prove me wrong Mariah. (Thursday 7 July 2016; 21:17)

Re: And you don't remember (64,066) (64,073) by Merr Hasenan from Malaysia AYDR should follow CLG as the third single from Emotions. Love the words, the melody and the vocal. (Thursday 7 July 2016; 15:56)

Re: Mariah's World on hold at E (64,070) (64,072) by RibbonB from USA Welp, that's "Stellar" Bulochnikov for you all. (Thursday 7 July 2016; 15:41)

Re: Physic (64,060) (64,071) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter "I think people just don't want to accept that Mariah may actually be enjoying this cheaper form of attention which is celebrity over her craft." As harsh as it sounds, it looks like this is exactly what's happening. I don't know if she is doing it because she enjoys it or that she thinks it makes her cool (which it really doesn't) or that she thinks this is what it feels to be free (possibly influenced by Stella) but this isn't a flattering look.

Re: Mariah's World on hold at E (64,069) (64,070) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I hope this isn't true. It better not be, if it is, I'll be majorly pissed at Team Mariah. Their roll outs are extremely bad. Tickets for Mariah's new leg of SSFT were put on sale and Mariah didn't even make an announcement yet. Same goes for the SSFT in Europe and South Africa. There was little to no promo and people only bought tickets because of Mariah's brand and because she was visiting Europe after years and people didn't want to miss the chance. The roll out for #1 To Infinity was also bad, save for the cover reveal. They hyped out the music video with how epic it will be and how it is all ready and the rumors about the action sequence and then announced the video will be released with the single, instead we got a lame amateurish lyric video with clips from "Honey". What's the connection of "Infinity" with "Honey"? So lame. Then came the projects which were talked about and then forgotten. The RatPac movie, the "Infinity Remix" (whether you like it or not is besides the point, they hyped it up with Justin Bieber dropping in and then bam no sign of it), then the single that was supposed to be "coming soon" which we heard about months back and yet no news. Her latest talk show appearances have been majorly wasted with no real content. Why did she go to promote MW when the show didn't even have an air date or a tentative air date? Why does she never go into details about the show? It's always "dahlin' there are moments", "dahlin' the abuse I endured". Her social medias are a mess, her clothes have gone from bad to cringe worthy. Her new team gets way too much credit for stuff they didn't even do. Mariah needs a music manager if she wants to pursue music projects. She also needs a professional stylist and a professional social media personnel. (Thursday 7 July 2016; 14:55)

Mariah's World on hold at E (64,069) by THE TRUTH from USA So I just got the word from my boy at E that Mariah's World while it is all in the can (all eight episodes finished) it is in a holding pattern and particularly "difficult" dynamics are making the likelihood that MW ever sees the light of day, "slim to none". Your guess is as good as mine whether the "difficult" dynamic was courtesy of Stella or MC. (Thursday 7 July 2016; 13:05)

Humour for today (64,067) by Kajal from UK- Birmingham Hi guys, I just seen this hilarious article today in a certain online celebrity website DM. It's about kids giving funny answers to exam questions and one asks what is the highest frequency noise that a human can register and a kid answers Mariah Carey. Made my day. Shows even the young do know about our lady. Have a beautiful blessed day. (Thursday 7 July 2016; 11:28)

Re: And you don't remember (64,059) (64,066) by Stacey from USA Funny you mention that song. It's been running through my mind lately. Great song. (Thursday 7 July 2016; 5:51)

Re: Mariah's personal life (64,061) (64,065) by 123 from USA I love Fly Like a Bird. I run to that song when I I'm down and I need lifeline out of whatever I'm dealing with at the time. The "carry me home" sung over and over again at the end just strikes a cord with me that at the end of the song, a sense of calm and tranquility come over me. Like, I may be going through this now, but I'm going to be fine. I've been through worse. The tears of pain turn into tears of relief. Anyway I love Big Jim and he stuck with her during her worst and I have always been of fan of what they create. He helps her shine during her live vocal moments in Vegas. That's probably why I love listening to the tail end of TEOM. All those late 70's soul ballads where she lets her voice go. If you think about it, there are 14 songs to an album. One or two songs per producer is fine to me. That would be at least 7 different producers which is a good number. I say work with as many different people as possible along with anyone from the past. You never know what magic could be created. I hope she got some sessions in Vegas and didn't post. I rather her take different "moments" here and there and record with different people secretly until she is ready to drop it. (Thursday 7 July 2016; 5:07)

Re: And you don't remember (64,059) (64,064) by Ty from USA What a great song and heavenly vocals, until the end of time also. (Thursday 7 July 2016; 2:25)

Vote for Mariah (64,063) by Nicole from US Billboard's 2016 Fan Army Face Off. She is losing to Thirty Seconds to Mars. (Thursday 7 July 2016; 0:23)

Re: Physic (64,060) (64,062) by RibbonB from USA I agree Marissa and she gets more and more risqué when she wants attention both good or bad. Sadly, as public attention wanes she tends to do more and more desperate things to achieve it. Hollywood is great, Hollywood can also be a cesspool, IMO. The business of show. (Wednesday 6 July 2016; 22:26)

Re: Mariah's personal life (64,058) (64,061) by Mara from United States Fly Like a Bird was written and produced by Big Jim Wright along with Mariah of course. I just wanted to bring that up. I think Big Jim is a great person to work with and not to mention phenomenal piano player. I would not mind Mariah creating another FLAB myself, I don't think he is "too old". You need someone like him if you want that retro feel. I agree she should work with other writers and producers too but I am a fan of Big Jim. (Wednesday 6 July 2016; 21:35)

Re: Physic (64,054) (64,060) by Marissa from USA The issue isn't fans having an opinion about her personal life. The issue is people try to pass off opinions as facts. As long as we remember that there's nothing we know for sure (caps) about her personal life then there's no issue. It's not realistic for fans to be opinionless when she's been stressing her private life, whether it's the jetset lifestyle, James or dem babies more than she's emphasized new music. Mariah puts herself out there for people to have opinions. You can't witness 100 bra reveals, see her in several drunk Snapchat videos and see her entering the same type of long distance relationship that she used to claim was unpleasant to handle and not develop questions about her personal life. If she really wanted a private life then she would make a much greater effort to do so. Mariah has been a "purist" before. Look at 90-95. She knows how to make things all about the music and nothing personal. I think people just don't want to accept that Mariah may actually be enjoying this cheaper form of attention which is celebrity over her craft. (Wednesday 6 July 2016; 19:45)

And you don't remember (64,059) by Giovanni from USA I haven't seen anyone give this song any love on the messageboard before. It's one of my favorite Mariah songs. The music and lyrics are just too good. If only Mariah would go back to this type of song writing. (Wednesday 6 July 2016; 17:41)

Mariah's personal life (64,058) by Giovanni from USA I've never cared for Mariah's personal life. I only care about the music. So I could care less if she marries James or not. I honestly think it's way too soon to get married. Nobody has the right to tell her what to do when it comes to her love life. But I for one wish she would only focus on her voice and music, because that's all most of us fans only care about. I hope she works with a couple of different producers other than just Jermaine and Big Jim Wright. Big Jim is too old. Mariah needs fresh producers that will help her come out with great songs. I wish she would work with Pharell and Happy Perez. And Diane Warren. I'd like more 70's retro and soul with some pop and gospel. Mariah needs another "Fly like a bird". (Wednesday 6 July 2016; 17:28)

Re: Self righteous much? (64,055) (64,057) by Shezz from Pk I think everybody will focus on the music again when she has some new music out. Looks like that'll be a while so we'll all have to just buckle up and steer through the choppy waters of her "personal" life until then. I wish she'd not give in to the social media pressure and have it so much on display for everybody to comment on. But then again I don't know if she is or can control that since it comes from several people now. She's found joy in touring now and is obviously making a good living out of it - much better than her recent albums so I don't blame her for holding out on new music. (Wednesday 6 July 2016; 16:44)

Let's start a list: love and hate (64,056) by RibbonB from USA Love Takes Time, Endless Love, My Love, I'll Be Loving You Long Time, I wanna Know What Love is. I'm throwing Supernatural in the love side because our love is supernatural. Lil. And then there is Hate U. (Wednesday 6 July 2016; 16:41)

Self righteous much? (64,055) by THE TRUTH from USA I'm noticing some self appointed censors and thought-speech police posting. Me I believe in democracy so if you aren't the webmaster then maybe I'm thinking we all have the right to speculate and articulate our opinions. We are all adults aren't we?
