About Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter:

Mimi L. (110,994) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ahhahaha I mean I would too want to have a team fussing over me if I was as talented and famous as Mariah. The general public doesn't understand that her diva antics is somewhat of a defense mechanism and also a bit of an act so they get put off. Which is why I hope the Kai Cenat interview portrays her in a more humble light to the general public. (Sunday 7 September 2025; 20:37) this is a reply to message 110,983

Mimi L. (110,983) by Giovanni from USA I remember back in the The Breakfast Club interview in 2014 Mariah had someone fixing her hair, I thought it was funny. It must be fun being a diva. I know if I was a male Mariah or another Bruno Mars I would have my stylist fixing my hair, fanning me off and bringing me lots of sweet tea and lemonade during interviews haha (just kidding). I loved her outfit on Kai's interview. She looked professional and like a boss. As grateful as I am she's still with us it makes me sad she's getting older. (Sunday 7 September 2025; 07:41)

Kai Cenat's stream (110,975) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Another thing I remembered of her being very humble in this interview is that when she came in she pulled her own chair, didn't make a fuss about lighting and angles and just was very chill. No makeup artist or hairstylist running in and out fixing her hair. (Saturday 6 September 2025; 17:17) this is a reply to message 110,967

Kai Cenat's stream (110,967) by Edward from USA I agree. Mariah has been looking disengaged on many of her regular interviews, but she had kind of a motherly attitude with Kai and his friends. (Saturday 6 September 2025; 03:53)

Kai Cenat's stream (110,972) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I noticed that too how when she left the room while they were making the list she herself went to each and everyone of the guys and hugged them and was so sweet to them. She definitely had the mama bear energy there. (Saturday 6 September 2025; 14:58) this is a reply to message 110,967

Kai Cenat's stream (110,967) by Edward from USA I agree. Mariah has been looking disengaged on many of her regular interviews, but she had kind of a motherly attitude with Kai and his friends. (Saturday 6 September 2025; 03:53)

Kai Cenat's stream (110,962) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I think the fact that it was so chaotic made Mariah be more engaged haha. Because she had no idea what's coming next and so she was paying attention. In normal sit downs she gets bored. Also I'm not familiar with the streaming world but I think they keep looking at the screen because they are constantly getting alerts, donations, prompts, questions in the chat etc so they're managing the stream and keeping their audience engaged in real time also ensuring the technical side of things are running smooth. So that's why it's so chaotic. I think he was very respectful of Mariah and so were the other guys in the back. She looked like she felt appreciated. Of course they don't know her catalogue as well as we do so they'd appear a little out of touch. But yes I think she's teaming up with these streamers to widen her younger audience which is smart. This paid off more than Mr Beast. (Friday 5 September 2025; 21:35) this is a reply to message 110,954

Kai Cenat's stream (110,954) by Edward from USA Dear Bill, as I told Randy, I guess we're getting old. The beauty of the interview was in its messiness. Kai wasn't being disrespectful, he was being himself, messy, but authentic. I was like: can you stop with what's on the screen and focus on Ms. Carey? They were just being typical gen z's. He has 1.3M subscribers more than Mariah. The mission was accomplished. (Friday 5 September 2025; 04:36)

Kai Cenat's stream (110,929) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter This is the most relaxed I've seen her in a while. I'm sure she was nervous because this isn't a platform she had experimented with before and they are all a younger generation but she fit right in and looked like she had fun although I was dying at the spelling me because they were cracking me up. (Thursday 4 September 2025; 02:26) this is a reply to message 110,927

Kai Cenat's stream (110,927) by Edward from USA I how informal and real this interview is. Mariah is cooped up on that low chair not giving two f***s about it. She's alert, fun and interested. Very relatable. It's obvious Gamma was taking advantage of those 13.5M subscribers, who wouldn't? A well-deserved A+ for Mariah. (Thursday 4 September 2025; 00:21)

Random thought (110,875) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I have another random thought, isn't it funny when Mariah made supposed WBT clones back to back a lot of lambs were hating on them for being "clones" but now I see so many people say "I wish she would make another WBT". Not necessarily on this board but it's amusing. (Monday 1 September 2025; 02:16)

Year end record? (110,874) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Hahah I am guilty of sometimes just leaving a random thought as if I'm leaving a voice note. But I appreciate you all entertaining it. (Monday 1 September 2025; 02:15) this is a reply to message 110,863

Year end record? (110,863) by Bobby A from United States I have noticed that too. It's like we all knew 2025 would be the start of a new era. Bill, Dove, Lighty from China and Libra Lamb are back. We welcomed this year Giovanni, Lambi, and Baby from Dreamville. T is posting more this year. Randy came out of hibernation. Stacey makes me laugh. Terna and Shezz are great analysts. Mimi is our Tamron Hall with her great insight and commentary. Zachariah is my best friend now. Edward looks for my Saturday post to refute my claims. Lol. I don't want the number #1 slot at the end of the year. I want another board member to be #1. We are all family in the land of Mariah Carey. (Sunday 31 August 2025; 19:13)

Super Bowl (110,873) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Yes oh my gosh I didn't know about that and only stumbled upon that performance a few months back when it randomly popped up on my newsfeed and I got excited but once I played it I was like ugh what a missed opportunity. The performance was very meh. (Monday 1 September 2025; 02:13) this is a reply to message 110,871

Super Bowl (110,871) by Lambi from USA Mimi L, I thought about that too. And she actually did come close to a Super Bowl-esque gig in 2005. She did the NFL Thanksgiving game. She used it as a launchpad to promote DFAU. The whole thing felt haphazard though. The whole drum line theme was a mismatch to SIO and DFAU. It was too slow and dry. Plus, she just lip-synced (badly) over the original tracks. She was rather sick, but it was definitely a missed opportunity. I wish she had taken the event seriously and gotten more sleep, it was such a huge production. I know Mimi, at this point, was trying not to cement herself in the 90s, but a quick medley of her up-tempos would've gone so hard. The NFL might've been testing her and possibly considering her to be the main act for an actual Super Bowl halftime show. And I think she failed, as she was never invited to be back on the main stage again. Well they sorta did last year for a Christmas number, but it was basically a pre-recorded music video, and it was obviously only for clout because it's her season. (Monday 1 September 2025; 01:46)

Year end record? (110,862) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I think conversations usually intensifies around the time when Mariah has something new coming up. Which is understandable. The past few years have been a drought in Mariah land. (Sunday 31 August 2025; 18:21) this is a reply to message 110,856

Year end record? (110,856) by TJ from Norway Is it just me, or do people write more messages here in 2025, than the years before? It's sometimes difficult to follow the treads of options. (Sunday 31 August 2025; 15:45)

Super Bowl (110,855) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ya no Superbowl for Mariah. Her perfect opportunity would have been during TEOM era when she was feeling herself and on fire. But now she wouldn't have the stage presence to command such a huge stage. She definitely has the set list to perform but I don't think it's a pressure she wants or needs right now. (Sunday 31 August 2025; 15:43) this is a reply to message 110,829

Super Bowl (110,829) by Giovanni from USA I'm a no on Mariah doing a Super Bowl performance. I just think she's past her prime and I don't know if she could deliver vocally. I think it would be a risk and any mess up would just be more ammo for haters. We're still recovering from that disastrous New Year's Eve performance so the last thing Mariah needs is negative coverage of a bad performance. Let Taylor Swift do it. (Saturday 30 August 2025; 19:55)

Dating Tupac (110,780) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I mean it wasn't a big stretch because the interviewer did say if her and Tupac dated they would be the biggest power couple and she does agree hahah. (Thursday 28 August 2025; 18:43) this is a reply to message 110,771

Dating Tupac (110,771) by BFF from United States Did anyone else listen to this interview from Power 106? Mariah definitely did *not* say she regretted not dating Tupac. The interviewer decided to take creative license and interpret the exchange that way. The just of what Mariah said is that she was star struck by the fact that Tupac knew who she was when they bumped into each other at the 1996 AMAs. (Thursday 28 August 2025; 15:44)

Unexpected allies (110,740) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter So Kanye West is releasing his album on the same day as Mariah and I’m hearing rumblings about Swifties planning to stream Mariah to block Kanye since Kanye and Taylor have beef. I don’t know if it will gather steam but Swifties have done it before. (Wednesday 27 August 2025; 15:02)

Rumor tracklist with a grain of salt (110,727) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Haha. Reprimand I'd just Edward messing around. (Wednesday 27 August 2025; 00:28) this is a reply to message 110,722

Rumor tracklist with a grain of salt (110,722) by Bobby A from United States J. Valentine said that Here For It All was "fire" and "jammin". Based upon these song titles, he seems to be correct. Some of the titles are MC's most unexpected song titles like Confetti and Champayne, I Won't Allow It, In Your Feelings, and Reprimand. MC is making a statement and we are not ready. Anyway, I bet My Love is on the same level as Without You. I listened to Paul McCartney's version and I bet MC did her thing vocally. I am so excited for Here For It All. (Tuesday 26 August 2025; 23:21)

Rumor tracklist with a grain of salt (110,718) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Do we all get writing credit for track 12? (Tuesday 26 August 2025; 18:43) this is a reply to message 110,717

I Don't (110,716) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ugh I had almost forgot about that video. It could have been so much better and more in line with her TEOM quality. The original #B video I agree, she looks great and cute but it's just very repetitive. (Tuesday 26 August 2025; 16:49) this is a reply to message 110,710

I Don't (110,710) by jaker20 from US The video for H.A.T.E.U. is also shockingly bad. I was even more chocked to find out that Bret Ratner directed it who directed her more iconic videos. The bathing suit is so unflattering, I can’t believe she let them put her in it. There is no way she selected it. But again, looking low-budget for a high caliber director. It bothered me so much, because I absolutely love love the song. This happened a lot in the 2010s, solid songs wasted by bad videos. #Beautiful is another one. (Tuesday 26 August 2025; 07:24)

Here For It All (110,715) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Shezz. I'm not on UKMix hahahah. I do check the thread but don't have an account. I only have an account here. I love this board and it's just more user friendly for me. (Tuesday 26 August 2025; 16:47) this is a reply to message 110,711

Here For It All (110,711) by Shezz from Pk Haha if it's Roger F, he's really doing a great job at masking his dislike for MC. Nostradamous seems to love her. I've seen the few leaked track names and now the whole tracklisting floating around on UKmix. I don't post there but it's a good place to get more info on MC. I recognized Mimi L there. (Tuesday 26 August 2025; 10:55)

Mariah's best videos (110,681) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Oh gosh I didn't know Nick directed that. Well good job because I love every shot. I know he gets hate for the "Up out of my face" video because people say it looks like an ad for Target but I really enjoyed that video too. Matches the playful nature of the song. (Sunday 24 August 2025; 01:48) this is a reply to message 110,656

Mariah's best videos (110,656) by Bobby A from United States Mimi, I think Triumphant (Get 'Em) is one of MC's best videos too. Also, it showed Nick's artistic genius as a director by giving it a movie like quality. (Saturday 23 August 2025; 06:00)

Vanguard Award - JLo? (110,680) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter She did have another one - My Love Don't Cost A Thing but what's hilarious is just a few years back she tried to start a "trend" to celebrate its anniversary where she wanted fans to recreate the part of the video where she keeps taking off stuff she's wearing one by one and walking away and only 1 person participated. Everyone else was like "I don't know her". (Sunday 24 August 2025; 01:44) this is a reply to message 110,678

Vanguard Award - JLo? (110,678) by Edward from USA Jennifer Lopez has really only one truly award-worthy video and that's "If You Had My Love". The rest are pretty average. Mariah has many iconic ones. Here's my top 5: 1. Heartbreaker 2. Honey 3. Butterfly 4. Touch My Body 5. My All (Saturday 23 August 2025; 20:38)

Mariah's Vanguard (110,677) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mariah would quickly but sternly correct you to "It's Type Dangerous dahlin." I forgot to add in my list I also really enjoy the ABMB So So Def Remix (or was it called the Mr Dupri Remix) video. The black and white one with her wearing a beret that was used for the actual cover. (Saturday 23 August 2025; 20:24) this is a reply to message 110,670

Mariah’s Vanguard (110,670) by Matty from Vancouver Canada My top Mariah Vanguard videos: Vision of Love Emotions Dreamlover Anytime you Need a Friend Always Be My Baby Fantasy Every single video from Butterfly album Heartbreaker (both versions) Boy (I Need You) Every single video from Emancipation Touch My Body Obsessed #Beautiful Infinity A No No Dangerous Type (Saturday 23 August 2025; 17:24)

Music video idea (110,668) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter BGK was such a visual song like you could really already picture the music video. I don't know why she never released it and gave it a single treatment. (Saturday 23 August 2025; 15:24) this is a reply to message 110,661

Music video idea (110,661) by Dove from United States I just came up with a video idea. Not saying it's award worthy or anything - just an idea. It's for Betcha 'Gon Know. They could hire an actress that looks like a young her. But a lot like her, like Blake Lively and Isabela Ferrer in It Ends With Us. So the younger actress could be acting out the scene in the song while Mariah does her glamour pose/singing scenes. I know that album was ages ago, and this is not going to happen, but I come here because MC reality is suspended for me and I can share my dreams and creative visions freely. (Saturday 23 August 2025; 12:18)

Music video idea (110,667) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Hahahha the last time Mariah allowed that was in the Someday music video. (Saturday 23 August 2025; 15:23) this is a reply to message 110,665

Music video idea (110,665) by Lighty from China Mariah does not acknowledge time so there would never be a younger version of herself being played by someone else. Just saying. (Saturday 23 August 2025; 13:47)

Mimi L. (110,653) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I'm forever a fan of the song and the video. It was a great video and she looked amazing. They told me get 'em, I got 'em. (Saturday 23 August 2025; 02:10) this is a reply to message 110,647

Mimi L. (110,647) by Giovanni from USA I also love the "Triumphant" video. She looks so good, I remember being excited and ready for the album and we never got one. I even thought Mariah was gonna name the album "Triumphant" lol. I'm still mad Mariah never finished "Bring it on home" and made it into a full song. It would have been a perfect song to finish the album. (Saturday 23 August 2025; 01:12)

Video Vanguard (110,652) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I think it's probably a deal they had with Gamma. Gamma wants Mariah everywhere and looks like they're investing in her a lot. So I wouldn't be surprised if they brokered a deal which a lot of artists do. She deserves credit for her videos though so I'm glad if Gamma made it happen. (Saturday 23 August 2025; 02:08) this is a reply to message 110,645

Video Vanguard (110,645) by Terna from Nigeria So suddenly, after shunning her videos all these years - 35 years to be exact, they finally wanna give Mariah a moon man? Yeah right. Next? (Saturday 23 August 2025; 00:29)

People are so toxic (110,651) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The Bee Hive is insane when it comes to defending Beyoncé and while yes definitely they should step aside and let Mariah have her moment I will have to say, Beyoncé is a strong visual artist. Keep in mind she released 2 fully visuals albums with very high concept and high budget videos. With that being said why are they pissed? Didn't Beyoncé already get the video vanguard? If not it's not the end of the world she got a bunch of Grammy awards and all for what changing 2 words in songs. (Saturday 23 August 2025; 02:05) this is a reply to message 110,641

People are so toxic (110,641) by Giovanni from USA There seem to be a lot of trolls on X who are not happy with Mariah getting the Vanguard Award. Mind you Beyonce has like two good videos, "Baby boy" and "Single ladies" yet she got the award. I will give her "Crazy in love" but that's about it. (Friday 22 August 2025; 21:20)

Mariah's best videos (110,640) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The disrespect of not having Heartbreaker in the list. My favorite Mariah videos (not in order) - All her "Butterfly" era videos - starting with Honey and Breakdown. The Roof is a classic and I liked the concept and visuals of the title track video. And of course My All, so so beautiful. - Heartbreaker and the remix videos. - The I Still Believe Pure Imagination remix video. - Every video from the TEOM era, no exceptions. Every video is pure perfection. - TMB, I Stay in Love - Triumphant (I want no slander) (Friday 22 August 2025; 20:34) this is a reply to message 110,636

Mariah's best videos (110,636) by jaker20 from US 1. It's Like That / We Belong Together 2. Honey 3. Touch My Body 4. Boy, I Need You 5. Obsessed 6. Shake It Off 7. All I Want For Christmas (2019) 8. Make It Happen 9. Hero 10. O, Holy Night Honorable mentions: I Still Believe Through The Rain A No No I Stay In Love Dreamlover My All Breakdown It's very likely that either director Joseph Khan or Brett Ratner will be there to give the award.
