Mariah on Clevver (57,726) by Lee TS from USA
Oh gosh she finally made it with her own little segment on Clevver, although not the main channel. I like how the host was precise and gave her a nice recap in Mariah's movie career. Watch the clip, I watch them to help me stay young and hip with the kids haha.

Re: Social media (57,723) (57,725) by Luke from United Kingdom
That was confusing me too. I know she's a busy gal but I'd love to know that it is just her posting on her social networks. Perhaps she's hinting to her amazing album since both of those are from 2005. Could be signs for another killer album like that.

Article: Mariah Carey and James Packer are living together (57,724) by RibbonB from USA
I have remained silent on her personal issues for over a year now, but I hope this one isn't true. Hopefully she finishes her divorce before doing anything this dramatic. This has to be confusing to her young children and she is not desperate for a place to live. She should put her desires to spend 24/7 with a man, far below what might be best for her kids. she was shady for taking them on a summer vacation and then tweeting happy fathers day to Nick. She is the more mature one in the relationship, so she should act it and always put her children's well being first and foremost. Mariah is enough to deal with on her own, she should learn the best and worst of [censored] Packer before she folds him into her children's lives. I won't even begin to drag him, yet. Lol.

Social media (57,723) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
Whoever is operating Mariah's instagram needs to really get their head in place. What's with the uber random old photos with even more random captions. Like the picture from SIO cover with the caption "fringe game". Then another picture from TEOM era with the caption "all gold everything". Why is it even necessary to post these? I appreciate the little behind the scenes stuff she posts like the movie and the GOW ad ones, but enough with the old photos with weird captions unless its a clue to the new project, which I highly doubt.

Re: Chill Bill (57,712) (57,722) by Bill from the UK
There are plenty of places online where you can run Mariah into the ground and be lauded for it. Must you bring it to her fan site? I don't mean to condescend but I have genuine puzzlement as to why you'd want to invest your time in something that makes you unhappy, and on a site where you only seem to like a handful of the members. I'll pass on meeting you in person, thanks all the same.

Keeping lambs close and your Andrews closer (57,713) (57,721) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End
Mohd Syafali Izwan from Malaysia: "He is just so annoying. Always talk the same issue. Can you just enjoy her music and the voice? Even though she is lip sync but still it is her voice. What is your problem? We all here want to enjoy the music by MC, why you always talk about her voice over and over again? Get a life." I thanked your post because I agree with you in spirit. But on principal it's another matter. You see, Andrew's and his hater ilks delusions are the only certain way we can be confident we are truly sane and fair. His very presense proves we are not living in an oxygen-deficient bubble (unlike him). Believe it or not, he makes us look good. His commentary is so extreme that it allows those who are even just slightly yielding in their hate to go under the radar as "moderate" posters when in reality, in analysing their text, they are just as bad as he is. It's basic politics. Banning him would negate the fact that he's just the figurehead for the anti-Mariah legion to look like they are reasonable, compared to him. There is at least 1 very active poster looking to usurp him at any given moment. Just let the moderator censor him when needed. All of this was just for me to say, let's keep Andrew for as long as he likes.

Hello? (57,720) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End
The charlatan is the epitome caricature of a Mariah-hater. It's hilarious how he will jump in front of a bullet for every other human being on the planet (bar lambs) to put Mariah down. I mean, all I said was that Adele and MiMi are both true singers and not lipsynching machines, like other lessers we know, for him to selfcombust for days and days in rant after rant. He's gone so far as defending imaginary people since I never named any names. To him it doesn't matter who they are, as long as he can pit them against Mariah. This amuses me on 7 different channels. It's also very interesting to note which posters address this ridiculousness and which never do (except for that other charlatan trying to fool us with their 180° turnaround). Sip that tea, slooow.

Article: Mariah playing Commissioner Gordon in Lego movie (57,719) by Lee TS from USA
Hmmm, so it seems early reports got it wrong. Mariah is now to play the mayor of Gotham city, not Commissioner Gordon. Well it was fun while the hype lasted. Still, excited to see Mariah take part in a fun kid's movie.

Mariah's a dude (57,717) by Lee TS from USA
Lol this is so random yet "awesome" how Mariah is playing a man in the Lego Batman movie. I hope it's true. I haven't watched the original but heard great things and it was such a big deal. This is too cool.

Anytime you need a friend (57,716) by Giovanni from USA
I just blasted "Anytime you need a friend" on my stereo like 5 times. This is Mariah at her best. Still gives me chills each listen. Absolutely love the "don't ever be lonely" at the ending of the song. "Music box" is such an amazing album. I don't care how Mariah feels. She is awesome with ballads. Still hoping for a big belting song that will blow everyone away.

davidf from Mexico (57,715) by Giovanni from USA
Adele's fashion is not why people love her. They love her for her music and for her voice. The haters need to just except the fact that Adele is a great singer who's on her way of becoming a future legend. Many say Mariah should collaborate with Alicia Keys, but I say Adele. Alicia is a medicore singer. Mariah would over power her easily. She needs a vocal challenge. Adele is that challenge. So please "make it happen" Mariah. Collaborate with her one day. It would be epic.

Re: Lip syncing issue (57,709) (57,714) by Musti from UK
Great post Mandy. I don't mind the lipping anymore. Clearly her voice cannot handle singing too many complicated runs or octave jumps in a single song live. Switching between vocal registers isn't simply a matter of how high or low they are. She doesn't just lip high belts. Most of the time she also lips breathy parts. If there is anything to learn from the failures in her live performances in the last decade and the fact that she likes to record her albums very early in the morning, it's that her voice only works in full under very controlled conditions. Especially when doing album promo, she has little control over her voice while singing on different shows at all sorts of hours of the day. When she was younger her voice was much more agile and she recovered easily from a failed note or run. Now it's difficult to camouflage her failures, like the whistle on #Beautiful on GMA in 2013. She has to lip to preserve her voice. And so long as she makes chart-oriented music, her records will continue to have impossible runs. That's how she became famous, and when she's on the radio with a pop record the first thing most people will pay attention to is "can she still sing" or "can she sing it live"? Plus she does write more singable songs these days (compare Fantasy and Obsessed), nevermind that they're still demanding on her voice. Although she never really wanted to be a live performer, what she gave us during the time she could sing live will always be legendary. She still makes great music in the studio and she's still an amazing artist. I'd say she's still doing her job pretty well.

Please block Andrew (57,713) by Mohd Syafali Izwan from Malaysia
He is just so annoying. Always talk the same issue. Can you just enjoy her music and the voice? Even though she is lip sync but still it is her voice. What is your problem? We all here want to enjoy the music by MC, why you always talk about her voice over and over again? Get a life.

Chill Bill (57,712) by Andrew from UK
Bill, all artists at some point have lip-synced, yes. Thou dost misseth the pointe, Squire. I equally know the content of your messages will be condescending when directed at me, and a little Stan-ish when not. Princess, let me be equally as clear and as condescending for you: Comments and positions that are clearly false and delusional should be challenged. Delusional standpoints cannot win as there is never any evidence to back them up and usually only evidence to dispel and disprove. I invite you to debate me in person.

Notes from a small island (57,711) by Andrew from UK
I see the attack squad is out again. Somebody intimates other artists are lip-syncing machines, that Mariah is not, and that cannot go uncorrected. How unfair on other artists. How completely unrealistic. BET Blueprint WBT chorus is lipped (albeit better than most others). She lipped at Live8, she lipped parts of Happy Birthday to Ali, she lipped for the American president, she lipped duetting with her own mother, it goes on and on. The comment made is completely false and deluded. Mariah has become increasingly more and more famous for miming in the last decade. To deny it is delusional, affording Mariah fans, collectively, a worse rep than most other artists' fans. Just leave the nonsense out. Doesn't make you less of a fan. In fact, I think it makes you more of one.

Article: Mariah Carey's greatest hits on loop at Crown Perth (57,710) by Gemma from Australia
I live in Perth and frequently stay at Crown and I've hardly heard Mariah's songs, nevermind her whole album. So don't get your hopes up, I don't believe for a minute it's that bad.

Re: Lip syncing issue (57,699) (57,709) by JAXGH from United States
Actually you're wrong. She's always been very open about her nodules. "They're the reason why I have the high register and the belting register and I can still be husky. A lot people couldn't sing through the nodules they way I do. I've learned to sing through my vocal chords." Nodules impose her to strain so she can hit those crystal clear high belts and that is what she is known for. I'd say her remedy of vocal rests, vocal training and therapy work incredible. She can sing her butt off on a really good day with incredible amount of sleep. Another aspect was her technique, she sounded amazing but it didn't mean it was in a healthy way. Mariah actually did have a very healthy technique for the most part but her larynx was in an incorrect position throughout her lower register which can easily damage your voice. I'd say no to surgery because her nodes were actually a blessing in disguise but also a curse if overused. It's a great thing she didn't do it, I mean she was still hitting them notes even after 98, right? She just has to work extra harder, practice, warm up, vocal rest and cherish sleep more. The only thing is I wish she would stop drinking alcohol, it's very unhealthy and it dries out your vocal chords. But you know her "everyone's gotta live". Lol.

Let it go (57,708) by Rene from US
I just don't get the logic of following a singer's career if everytime she performs she disappoints you. If you followed a singer for ten long years and keep whining like a little boy that she sucks, that is self-afflicted torture. It's like when your friend is in a bad relationship, they complain. Yet, they stay there. If Mariah does not do it for you, let it go. Will Mariah really change because one fan is crying how she needs to sing live every single note? Grow up.

MC, and Adele (57,707) by David F from Mexico
I love how Mariah went from princess living in a castle to this free ''butterfly album'' the feeling was so real, also when Fantasy went very popular and when went to number 1 oh gosh, she gave us sexy when Rainbow was out. I miss those moments why she did little promo with the chanteuse album she waisted so bad "You don't know what to do". I think that album should have been a video concept album. When I look at Adele I kind of laugh because they dress her like a grown woman with those big dresses, that's why she has appeal to the older people, any way the world is weird these days.

Mariah lip in ABMB bridge (57,706) by Joaquín from Chile
I remember that I listened to Mariah in 2013, at the GMA Mariah was singing ABMB completely live. But the bridge were very raspy. Now in the years 2014 and 2015 Mariah lipsing in ABMB using the bridge of GMA. But in Vegas Mariah perfectly can do this bridge withouth the raspy voice, but why doesn't she do that?

Re: Oh the insanity (57,693) (57,705) by Tevin from USA
A good performance in the last ten years. You must not have heard her sing TGIFY during her last three Vegas shows, there was mid and high belts, ease in her voice, thick tone and no straining or roughness in her voice. Here is a seat I pulled out for you, now please sit.
(Monday 9 November 2015; 1:55)
Re: Oh the insanity (57,695) (57,704) by Tevin from USA
I bet even Mariah's dreams are lipsynced. Please Andrew give it a rest. Thank you.

Re: "Anytime You Need a Friend" (57,696) (57,702) by Giovanni from USA
You know it's funny. I've been wanting to listen to "AYNAF". It's such a great song. Songs like this along with "One sweet day" and "Fly like a bird" are the reason why I love Mariah. And why she's the best period. *wishes for an epic album soon* Mariah please release an album soon. "Me I am Mariah" is great and I still play it, but it left me wanting more.

Re: Christmas Melody - first look (57,698) (57,701) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
One possible reason for this can be her role. She plays a bitchy high class mom. So we can assume she'd be decked in expensive things.
