Regina George in a lamb's clothing (56,946) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter *sips tea* Do you also get off on calling people idiots? LA has to be invited because he is her freaking boss, her label boss. That invitation was by default. I didn't see her mother there as well. Neither was her current beau, so um what gives? I am sure you are an "expert" and "genius" since you keep saying so on a regular basis. Keep painting Mariah as the "Shade Queen". Reducing her to something petty. I can't believe you would actually think Mariah would stoop low to actually tag Jermaine and insult him. Haha. What isn't a good look is how rude you are darling on a regular basis. Calling people names every time they say something that doesn't go your way. So tell me all about that expertise again. *plugs ears with cotton balls, putting on Cavalli shades* (Monday 28 September 2015; 21:00)

Re: MC and JD on Twitter (56,928) (56,945) by Manny from U.S. Those horoscopes are posted daily. The tweeter will sign up for them and they are posted on their profile automatically. (Monday 28 September 2015; 20:09)

Mimi L / Mariah and Madonna (56,944) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada Mariah is my fave singer of all time. I consider myself a "Lamb" and have since I was a child. And I also love Madonna. Totally different artists, totally different ways of expressing themselves. You can't even compare them except the fact that they work in the same industry. I appreciate what you posted because for years I have known whatever tension there was there has been gone for a long time. I don't think fans should be made to feel as if they are being disloyal to Mariah for enjoying other artists too. Speaking for myself, it doesn't mean I love Mariah any less.

Re: Mariah and JD (56,924) (56,941) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada I agree Mimi L. I also feel JD is a genuine friend. Friendships can go through ebbs and flows, and being a friend does not always mean telling someone what they want to hear. A true friend can say things that are honest and maybe heard to hear, but the friendship isn't threatened. I'll just say I didn't feel any shade there, or any undertoned threat about future projects together. If anything I felt the exact opposite about the tweet. Isn't it interesting how the same exact thing can be interpreted different ways? I find the public in general read too much into what gets posted on social media. Not everything Mariah posts has hidden meaning, is manipulative or has some kind of nasty message behind it. Mariah is a very genuine person, she's just become more guarded and cautious.

Startup execs were more of a "diva" than Mariah (56,940) by B from USA Positive press. Mariah's image in the press is being overhauled thanks to the success of her Vegas residency and the Game of War ad. Let the comeback commence. (Monday 28 September 2015; 18:10)

Re: MC and JD (56,933) (56,939) by B from USA I remember the interview. She did seem sincere. She's threw epic shade at Madonna so many times it's hard to know if she was sincere or not honestly. Madonna started it and Mariah didn't back down. This parting is for the best. Mariah needs a producer who will challenge her and who's advice she will listen to. Someone she hasn't worked with before. I think Happy Perez, Frank Ocean, and Miguel need to work exclusively with her on her next album like she did with Tricky and The Dream. A modern R&B album with edge. I love Miguel's Coffee song. (Monday 28 September 2015; 18:00)

Re: That face no flaw (56,934) (56,937) by B from USA She is stunning. Mimi, she's rocking an edgier style just like you asked for. I honestly believe she's a member of this message board. I don't know who, she's probably a member that's been here since the site launched and has never written a post. (Monday 28 September 2015; 17:51)

Re: MC and JD on Twitter (56,928) (56,936) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End I'm excellent at reading situations and behaviour, I do it on the daily in my own life. That's a talent of mine, not everybody has that. People in general fascinate me and being a Lamb I've honed in on Mariah's ticks, quirks and idiosyncrasies over the years. Really, it's like reading the lyrics to her songs. Some of them are pretty generic and nondescript while others are extremely personal and specific. Only a real Lamb would know the difference so I understand the confusion some of you struggle with who will never get it. Instead you will grab onto frivolous, baseless gossip that makes no sense coming from a supposed fan. Like when some idiots were going around saying how Mariah told French fans in a van she was unhappy at Sony and with LA Reid when she was in Paris recently. Complete fabrications and I already debunked that ridiculous claim and even if I hadn't, who later spoke at Mariah's Hollywood Walk Of Fame star ceremony? LA Reid, that's who. I didn't see Jermaine Dupri anywhere, why wasn't he there giving a speech or even in the audience? He's been around significantly longer than anyone of her major collaborators except Brett Ratner and yet he was ghost. It couldn't possibly be that he went out of his way to disrespect her work ethic, musical legacy, success and intelligence on more than one occasion unprovoked, could it? I'm amazed at having to spell it out for people, fans or not, who should already be in the know as often as they frequent and post on a Mariah Carey message board. I mean, are you being deliberately obtuse? That then begs the question, why? Either way, it ain't a good look sis. (Monday 28 September 2015; 17:49)

Re: If you could add anything to your Mariah (56,926) (56,935) by B from USA Glad they realized how disrespectful to Mariah and her fans The Mariah Store was. All I want for Christmas is the #1 To Infinity concert book. I saw the moving billboards promoting the residency and the first teaser for the Infinity video being played everywhere. I wish they had included it in the video. (Monday 28 September 2015; 17:48)

That face no flaw (56,934) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Here is a new picture of Mariah when she went to see Aladdin. I am usually not a fan of this color (the jacket) but it looks gorgeous on her. She looks so beautiful and is glowing. Her skin is flawless. I love jackets on Mariah. She wore a lot of them during E=MC2 era (from pink and yellow to golden and silver) and she wore some earlier this year. (Monday 28 September 2015; 15:59)

Re: MC and JD (56,932) (56,933) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter This is what she said about Madonna: "Madonna is a trailblazer, she helped the music industry in so many ways." You can hear it at 3.57 onward in this clip. I might be mistaken but she did praise Madonna in another interview but I can't remember which (or like I said I might be wrong) but at least in this voice clip you see her say it and she was genuine about it. This was from the MIAM era last year. (Monday 28 September 2015; 15:53)

Re: MC and JD (56,931) (56,932) by Philipp from Switzerland Mimi L, when did she praise Madonna? (Monday 28 September 2015; 14:52)

MC and JD (56,931) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter To anyone thinking that Mariah shaded JD with that tweet or made a jab at him, it definitely does not come off that way. It was JD's birthday yesterday and that might just have been her way of wishing him or it could have just been Mariah reminiscing some of her old work (like she has been doing a lot lately by posting old lyrics and photos) and we all know how much she loves ILT and SIO. Secondly Mariah would never tag Jermaine in all her social media profiles with that picture if her intention was to shade him. She'd just post it and write a cryptic status (or none) that would imply the shade. People need to stop thinking that everything that comes out of her mouth is a "diss/shade". But since some lambs continue to do it, it makes Mariah come across as a mean person. The woman can basically yell "I love you" to someone and yet these lambs will say "did you hear the tone she used, there was definitely some shade in it" and then bring on the "queen of shade" hashtag. Just accept it that she has grown up and if she can now embrace people that she was once rumored to have feuds with (like her recently praising Madonna and acknowledging the Nicki fight was the fault of the producers not the 2 women) then she can definitely look past what one of her closest friends said in an interview (which I still detect nothing vicious, but may have been misunderstood). Her own label boss made quite a negative statement about her, but she is still there right? She is not an immature kid. (Monday 28 September 2015; 11:55)

DJ Quik (56,930) by Marissa from USA I need Mariah to work with DJ Quik as soon as possible. The man is a musical genius and I have never heard one bad beat from him. If Mariah ever wanted to do another mainly R&B album a la TEOM he is the man she needs to work with. He is very underrated but his musical genius plus Mariah's genius and superstar fame could be a great collaboration. Check his beats out. (Monday 28 September 2015; 5:13)

Mariah saw Aladdin on Broadway (56,929) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End James Monroe Iglehart (such poetry in name, no?) just posted this picture and captioned it on his Instagram: "So this just happened. The beautiful butterfly herself. The very sweet Miss Mariah Carey came to visit us at Aladdin." Could this be another inkling of MC's own Broadway ambitions? I would die. Just die. (Monday 28 September 2015; 3:52)

MC & JD on Twitter (56,928) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End JD (sub)tweeted out his horoscope a couple of days ago which started out like this: "Happiness may be as elusive as a butterfly now, but it's clear. More for Libra." Mariah just tweeted at Jermaine a few hours ago: "It's like that y'all" plus a picture of the lyrics: "Cause it's my night. No stress, no fights. I'm leaving it all behind. No tears, no time to cry. Just making the most of life." Now, this exchange does not come across very conducive to any more collaborations between these two. I don't know, but I could be right. I guess only time will tell. I made sure to double checked the dates this time Eric. (Monday 28 September 2015; 2:08)

Re: MC and JB are #1 on Jordanian iTunes with AIWFCIY (56,920) (56,927) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Oops. My bad. Surprised it actually got posted considering. But it's all good, right? (Monday 28 September 2015; 1:43)

Re: If you could add anything to your Mariah (56,903) (56,926) by 123 from USA Hi B. I feel bad because it seems like those in May got the short end of the stick. I think everyone was holding their breath about how well the show would do. Once they saw that she could draw in a crowd, she became the queen of Vegas during her July leg of her tour. From the grand arrival pink car she rode in sitting inside the airport to constant promotions of the show on the tv screens. There were trailers constantly riding through the streets promoting her show and the Ceasar's became Mariah central. They had tons of promotional posters, they were playing her songs over and over throughout the casino like Obsessed. The gift shop became a Mariah shrine with all of her Columbia releases up front and all over the shop on full display along with the 1 To Infinity album. There were butterly key chains, t-shirts, and they were even playing the Love Takes Time live 1993 performance. The gift shop girl was even singing along. I bought her tour book and it was like 40 bucks if memory serves me correctly. (Monday 28 September 2015; 0:41)

Re: Queen Bitch (56,914) (56,925) by B from USA Not my successor, Mariah's. Surprised the grammar police haven't commented on it yet lol. I'm not talking about our wonderful Eric. He deserves praise for putting up with us. He's truly a member of the lambily and I've been visiting this site since the day it was launched. I spent hours on here reading articles and the message board never commenting. (Sunday 27 September 2015; 23:39)

Mariah and JD (56,924) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter So I saw Mariah post the lyrics to "ILT" and tag Jermaine Dupri. I'll take it as a sign that they are still on friendly terms. JD and Mariah in the studio is magical. I don't care what other lambs think, I feel like JD is one of the few genuine friends Mariah has left. They seems to understand each other professionally and personally. I hope to hear more collaborations from them. I love all the songs they wrote together. (Sunday 27 September 2015; 22:54)

Re: Really? (56,915) (56,923) by 123 from USA She confirmed it when she did press for her concert in Israel by sayings he had came there with her boyfriend. (Sunday 27 September 2015; 21:44)

Re: Faded (56,904) (56,922) by 123 from USA I agree. Faded is my favorite song on the album. From the lullabyish instrumental intro, to the simplistic four note melody allows her to use her voice to fill in the song wish lush background vocals and multiple harmonies, the slow vocal build until the end gives a new meaning to vocal crescendo. You really feel the emotion when she is belting, "Always somewhere but you're not there for me, not there for me, not there for me, yes." It should have come right after YDKWTD. It should have been #Beautiful, YDKWTD, and then Faded for the fall. It would have done well on the US charts. (Sunday 27 September 2015; 21:42)

Re: One Direction (56,910) (56,921) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End OK, the thing is, 1D have had the Infinity symbol as part of their brand for a while. Neclaces of paper airplanes and the infinity directioner is available everywhere as merch. So it's not that out of the blue that they would have a song with that name. But that doesn't mean that the 1D connection to Mariah is irrelevant, it certainly isn't. If anything MiMi is having a good laugh at all of it. Like everything I like these days, it's so meta. (Sunday 27 September 2015; 20:48)

MC and JB are #1 on Jordanian iTunes with AIWFCIY (56,920) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Which is remarkable since it's only September and Jordan a majority muslim country. But I guess that sort of makes sense in a roundabout way since Christmas isn't really a holiday they celebrate. How cool is that? Look. True transcendence. Hopefully it's a sign of peace with all that's going on in the region that things will ultimately be all right. God bless. [Webmaster: It's the Jordanian iTunes top 100 list of 11 January 2015. The top 100 of today can be found here.] (Sunday 27 September 2015; 19:30)

Re: One Direction (Billy) (56,910) (56,919) by Will from England There's no copyright over a song title, just the content, hence why there are so many songs with the same title. I'm sure it's just coincidence in this case. (Sunday 27 September 2015; 12:06)
