Re: Give Mariah a break (63,366) (63,373) by Andrew from UK Sorry, but no lol no way. The whole Western world is in shock and mourning and Mariah, recent winner of the GLAAD award (who, when I pointed out the award didn't make any sense as she has never been any sort of advocate for LGBT people, had many of you jumping to her defense) chose to post a picture of herself in (what can only be described as) clown make-up with her children for "National Children's Day". If she'd posted nothing at all I would probably have wondered why. But posting that picture for that reason is at best insensitive, and at worst, [censored] insulting. Happy Children's Day to all the parents who lost their son or daughter in a bloodbath? Mariah is on another planet at the moment. And you're up their on a vay-cay with her telling how pretty her dresses are. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 16:02)

Re: Mariah's Orlando tweet (63,349) (63,372) by TJ from Norway I've been thinking about the same. It's sad to see that she's a total gone in this setting. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 15:00)

Re: Give Mariah a break (63,368) (63,371) by MusicfanJ from Germany I definitely would retire. But a real musician/artist won't retire as long as they're fit enough. And it's impossible to please everybody. Nobody's perfect. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 15:00)

Re: Give Mariah a break (63,366) (63,370) by Mirage_Nunez from America Exactly Giovanni. It's one thing to be curious or maybe even a little disappointed that she didn't tweet, but implying that it must mean she doesn't care or isn't moved by the tragedy is absurd. I also find it a bit selfish and twisted that someone would use this tragedy as an agenda to try and prove that Mariah doesn't care about the gay community or gay issues. Where were these people when Mariah tweeted her support for the gay marriage bill being passed successfully and when she actually hit the gay clubs to celebrate with B Scott? *crickets* (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 14:43)

Obsessed Cahill Remix (63,369) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I was listening to this remix of "Obsessed" yet again and it's my favorite version, well this and the original version. This song was great. Quite unlike MC's other songs and perfect song of the summer. It would have been a bigger hit had L.A. not pulled the plug on it. This song made Mariah cool to the younger audiences and every one was blasting this. Yet another "lost opportunity", "empower your diss records", "empower your girls", "live love diss", "I still don't know him". (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 14:26)

Re: Give Mariah a break (63,366) (63,368) by Sheila from United States I agree, her lambs are actually harsh. Navy/Beehive stick by Bey and RiRi through imperfection and storms. The lambs basically tear her apart. If she reads this site she's probably heartbroken. Lambs you do realize she could retire and stay home with her children and "sham" publicity stunt husband to be and never be heard from again? Be thankful. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 13:22)

Article: Mariah Carey Q&A: Visions of (unconditional) love (63,367) by Kajal from UK- Birmingham Ah beautiful interview, so raw, so heart-felt and honest in both ways. Thank you. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 11:54)

Give Mariah a break (63,366) by Giovanni from USA She shouldn't be expected to tweet about every tragic event that happens in the world. And although what took place was very sad and horrible, Mariah shouldn't be looked at as a bad person just because she hasn't acknowledged it. She's always constantly being attacked for something. I honestly sometimes feel sorry for her. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 10:27)

Re: Repetitive Vegas show (63,353) (63,364) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter First of all Licia, your explanation of "Crapfinity", I'm bowing down. Hilarious. Secondly don't bother with Queen/King/Empress Lambassador. Most of what they write is senseless and they'll pick bits and pieces from each post and then try to make it into something completely different to show what a big lamb they are and how they understand Mariah and we "lessers" don't and we'll get slapped by Mariah. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 8:37)

Re: Orlando shooting (63,275) (63,312) (63,363) by Haiji Toro from USA Thank you Andrew. Very true and kind words. Unfortunately, two of my friends were victims and in critical condition at the moment. Our prayers have been going out for them and their families, as well as the rest of the victims. Maybe I'm being too dramatic, but this indeed, is a huge deal in our community. Regardless if it was an act of terror or just simply hate, we should not have to now live in fear of getting killed just for being who we are. I thought we've come a long way and now this. And it truly sucks that instead of paying attention to what really is going on, the media keeps focusing on the election. Why am I seeing the faces of Trump, Clinton and Obama on every channel and not the families of those killed or maybe some tribute to their lives. I get that these people are the faces of this country, so no disrespect, but can we focus on what's more important please? And just to add, I am saddened that out of all celebrities, especially the ones that have a clip or pics out every day, showing everything from t*ts to shade, hasn't even shown one second of anything regarding the Orlando shooting. So disappointing, Mariah. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 6:06)

Re: Billy, B, Giovanni and One Sweet Day (63,325) (63,362) by radhames from Curacao Mirage_Nunez I couldn't agree more with you. These [censored] come here just to complain everything Mariah does and to praise Patti. It so annoying. If you want the 90's Mariah, go to YouTube, watch her videos and stop beating that dead horse. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 4:20)

Re: Butterfly's anniversary (63,311) (63,361) by Tevin from USA I agree musicfanj, so many good songs to choose from. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 3:47)

Re: Deedre (63,306) (63,360) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada Thanks Giovanni. It's been really lovely to see the respect for Selena as an artist and a person on the messageboard, and cool to know she has some fans among the lambs. I like your song choices too. There isn't much in her catalogue I don't enjoy but that's just me. Lol. Some of the more obscure Tejano tracks are just "ok". Her contribution to music may have been short, but to me, the music is timeless, and she has become a legendary artist in her own way. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 2:59)

Re: The one and only (63,326) (63,359) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada You got me. You made me look lol. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 2:46)

Disappointed in MC (63,358) by Todd from Melbourne, Australia I wholeheartedly agree with Andrew. Really disappointed that Mariah, a supposed friend of the LGBT community, hasn't so much as said "boo" about the Orlando massacre. Could it be that she is in Mariah's World and just completely unaware that it's actually happened? (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 2:39)

Re: Mariah's Orlando tweet (63,349) (63,357) by Philipp from Switzerland Yeah I wish she would say something. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 1:10)

Re: Yeah it sucks (63,342) (63,356) by Dustbin from USA Absolutely. And I think she could get away from the studio singer issue by rearranging the songs. She can't sing them like she used to. Slow it down, rearrange, and give us new life. She still sounds better than anyone out there with her current voice but it's overshadowed by backup tracks and lipping. The public thinks it's all smoke and mirrors. Though there are many, it's not all true. We have been listening to Mariah long enough and we know when the backup track starts. Show us the artist we all know you are Mariah. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 0:59)

Re: Repetitive Vegas show (63,322) (63,355) by Dustbin from USA Firstly. I don't care about Instagram or social media in general. Not my bag. However I do think the posts from MC can be fine tuned. Regarding the Vegas show. Sneaking in a fan request isn't a lot to ask for. Changing a song to acoustic isn't asking a lot. I would prefer the "to Infinity" part of the show referenced other MC songs, not the actual song. She could do all the #1's and each show sing a random song or a new one. We pay a lot of money for this that and the other to see Mariah. Am I reaching for the stars here? I don't think so. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 0:51)

Re: #1's to Insanity (63,347) (63,354) by Mirage_Nunez from America But why be so obsessed and fixated on what the "public" thinks about Mariah though? Why are you allowing it to affect your feelings towards her? Why do you feel the need to spread the hatred of the people who don't like her instead of the love for her on here? Don't you have your own mind? What good is it doing crying over the same thing over, and over, and over, and over again? We already know MC voice changed after Daydream. We have researched, dissected, and analyzed this topic a billion times and all came to a consensus as to what, when, where, and why her voice changed and have moved on. The "insanity" is in keep on asking a the same (in all caps) rhetorical redundant question like it just happened yesterday. It like please let it go, we get it and got it already baby. If you have outgrown Mariah accept it and move on like others have. If you have turned on Mariah then just admit it and stop trolling so hard and making negativity your stole purpose for posting i.e. move on. If she's such a titty flashing, bitchy, drunk, classless, slutty, non gay community supporting, irritating, childish, horrible music making, lip syncing, no more voice having, bitter, lazy, fragile victim then why are you here? Why be an oppressed as a former fan? How long will allow yourself to be consumed by someone you don't like anymore? (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 0:47)

Re: Repetitive Vegas show (63,322) (63,353) by Licia from USA I actually thought I defended the Vegas show and why it probably wouldn't change, but once again you only comprehended bits and pieces of everyone's posts. You tried to go at Mimi L about saying Crapfinity was supposed to be removed. I recall her post saying that Mariah said she was going to remove the song. Anyway let me define Crapfinity since I was the one who said it. Crapfinity is the crappy song that Mariah sings at the end of the Vegas show that never should have been written or presented to the public. Now this is not an official definition. This is my personal opinion and for me it does not matter why Mariah wrote it, it's still a horrible song imo. Now back to your regularly scheduled program. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 0:44)

Re: Mariah's Orlando tweet (63,349) (63,352) by ADAM from USA Exactly. This tragedy in Orlando has been a global event and yet not a peep from her. Could her recent interview with Pride magazine be anymore generic? I thought her answers were so canned and overarching that it could be applied to any sub group or audience. She once again has proven that she will say anything to not alienate one group over another when in actuality gays have been keeping her relevant and rich for all these years when the general public has written her off as a joke and has-been who lost her voice. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 0:44)

Re: Yeah it sucks (63,342) (63,351) by ADAM from USA Randy I really appreciate your insight and agree with your previous statements about her live performances. I don't consider it bashing or mean spirited. This is a fan-site and I visit this site regularly to engage and read about multiple viewpoints about Mariah Carey. She is not perfect and certainly does things that warrant criticism. I think it's healthy to debate topics like these and hope that you don't become swayed to no longer be honest on this forum because some people think this should be a pep rally for all things wonderful about Mariah who does everything perfect and 100%. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 0:38)

Article: Mariah Carey Q&A: Visions of (unconditional) love (63,350) by Marissa from USA This was an exquisite article. I've always said that Mariah's interviews in print are by far the best. No eternally 12 tangents, hair primping or boob adjusting. My favorite question was what would 1990 Mariah think of 2016 Mariah. Her answer was pretty surface but it was still a good question. (Tuesday 14 June 2016; 0:05)

Mariah's Orlando tweet (63,349) by Andrew from UK Given Mariah's recent GLAAD award, could somebody post Mariah's tweet in response to the massacre of LGBT persons in Florida? Surely she made one, being such an advocate of the LGBT community and a gay icon, etc? Of course, she did. I'm sure she didn't post something about National Children's Day, instead. Looking forward to reading it. (Monday 13 June 2016; 23:39)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey Q&A: Visions of (unconditional) love (63,340) (63,348) by Sheila from United States Sweet article and I love this real lamb. (Monday 13 June 2016; 23:32)
