Re: 90s MC compared to 2015 (57,248) (57,253) by B from USA We don't known what limitations her voice has, if any. She also said singing in a lower key would strain her voice. Some of the comments are shady but look at the commenters. (Tuesday 13 October 2015; 14:19)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey explains album delay in letter to fans (57,249) (57,252) by B from USA Like Mariah says it's the peaks and valleys of life that make it interesting. Or a career. (Tuesday 13 October 2015; 14:13)

Mariah Christmas show at The Beacon (57,251) by Anthony Carey from U.K Well guys, I got my show tickets. Thank God especially as I had already booked my flights and hotel from the UK. The only thing I will say is I am slightly disappointed that I was unable to purchase the VIP tickets as they only accepted customers who reside in USA/Canada. I even telephoned Ticketmaster from the UK and was on for 30 minutes begging and pleading haha. I have managed to book the last 2 shows anyway as I land on December 15th - wouldn't it be good if she added another date for me to go at the end. Enjoy the show guys.

Jussie Smollett dahlings out (57,250) by Lee TS from USA Watch him talk about Mariah on Kelly and Michael here starting from 11:35. Or just watch the whole interview because he's so likable and refreshing. I actually remember him from a small gay indie film before Empire he starred in with M's backup dancer Anthony Burrell - the "Cry." dancer if you will. Good to see him doing so well and hope there are more Mariah moments. I secretly hope Mariah makes nice with Shonda Rhimes over at ABC to get a few guest starring roles, and we know how she's a fan of the shows. Oh dear, I wasn't even thinking of Grey's Anatomy but what if she plays an opera singer who needs to get vocal surgery and everything goes wrong. You never know with the right role she can be up for an Emmy, come on. Make it happen Stella. (Tuesday 13 October 2015; 13:08)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey explains album delay in letter to fans (57,229) (57,249) by Marcel from Montréal, Canada I guess Randy's Q was meant in a different way, 90's Mariah on 2015 MC. I think Randy was having more of a deep thinking here. It's like we can all look back on us and be like wish I had done this or hadn't done that but the wish I had (not) is something that really doesn't exists since we cannot change past. What if being in lets say October 1993 for example and some sort of "Christmas ghosts" would show up to MC and let her envision her own self through the years to come and what would that 1993 Mariah would be like on her own self. What would she say, what would she think, what'd she do, what would she avoid doing, what would she think twice before acting/doing/trying/saying something. It'd be a very interesting exercise to do for anyone: try to position yourself on a younger era when you were living the best time of your life (that's why I said Oct 1993 as an example) and then try to analyse everything from that perspective on and keeping it true to your own back then self. Imho she wouldn't be as proud as she says she is of what she's done like must of us wouldn't as well. It'd be pretty surprising how many things you, just like in the movie, would start doing differently and that kind of envision when keeping it true to that starting point can really, even knowing you cannot change what's already been done, help you implementing some changes on your life cause it's never too late to start doing something that is for good.

Re: 90s MC compared to 2015 (57,241) (57,248) by Tevin from USA To you Luke and Marissa. I wasn't trying to be shaddy just making a joke. I love Mariah and I was just thinking that when you are young you feel invincible. I sure Mariah knew she could hit any note see wanted to in her sleep, even when she was awake and sick back in the day she still sounded better than most today. Remember she said herself that she kept pushing her voice and vocals higher and harder to see what she could accomplish, even when her mom and some critics said she should take it easy. But imagine how you will feel seeing yourself very successful in the future but reality hit you that your invincibility that you thought you had now has some limitations.

Mariah (57,247) by B from USA Mariah is, was, and will always be The Voice. Even with the supposed decline she's still untouchable. Her voice is a gift from God. She's a songbird in human form. I was watching the Oprah interview during the promotional campaign for Butterfly and Mariah said she was medolically driven. She was coining catchphrases even then. (Tuesday 13 October 2015; 1:10)

Re: I've always wondered (57,228) (57,245) (57,246) by B from USA I think she'd congratulate herself for a job well done and tell her herself to go to the Rockefeller tree lighting this year and redeem herself and remind the world why she's earned the right to be a first class diva. Beyone [sic] doesn't compare and sorry Arianna it's never going to happen. (Tuesday 13 October 2015; 1:04)

Re: I've always wondered (57,228) (57,245) by May from Denmark She would probably say something silly like "How she has that hair? I must get her stylist darling." Haha. I thought of this because every time someone shows her a picture of herself from the past she says something about the hair, she wouldn't be Mariah if it wasn't about the hair.

Re: Janet gets all the love (57,238) (57,244) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada this_is_qhm, beautifully stated. Couldn't agree more. (Monday 12 October 2015; 21:01)

Re: 90s MC compared to 2015 (57,242) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter After she sees how successful she got "You're lesser favorites could never, but we love everybody." *walks away* (Monday 12 October 2015; 20:58)

Re: 90s MC compared to 2015 (57,240) (57,241) by Luke from United Kingdom Hmm, I think she'd be proud. Look at how far she's come and what she's accomplished and is still going strong. Once upon a time 90's Mariah hoped for "some success". I like how some people here act like they wouldn't consider lipsyncing after 25 years of vocal acrobatics. (Monday 12 October 2015; 19:52)

90s MC compared to 2015 (57,240) by Marissa from USA Am I the only one feeling like these "how would 90s Mariah feel about 2015 Mariah" posts are shady as hell? Lol. Both versions of MC are good in their own way. (Monday 12 October 2015; 17:17)

Re: Janet gets all the love (57,235) (57,238) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines I'm happy for Janet. She deserves all the love. Her new album is her best in a long time. Mariah will have her time as well, she could have had it with MIAMTEC, but she'll have it when the time is right. No need for any comparison of anything because the bottom line is that they're both legends in their own ways. (Monday 12 October 2015; 12:56)

Article: Mariah Carey performs in China (57,237) by Lee TS from USA High 6 digits? Mariah, don't do it not even for Packer. At least a cool million, no girlfriend discounts haha. (Monday 12 October 2015; 11:29)

Re: I've always wondered (57,228) (57,236) by Andrew from UK Hey Randy, good question. 2015 Mariah talking to 1990 Mariah? A scene from Friends comes to mind: "Shutup, the camera adds ten pounds." "Yes, but how many cameras are actually on you?" (Monday 12 October 2015; 10:31)

Re: Janet gets all the love (57,123) (57,235) by Amber C from USA The Janet love is shortlived. The Mariah love is eternal. Therefore Mariah can't get love everyday like it's nothng. Mariah love is of great value, and doesn't happen to everyone. (Monday 12 October 2015; 4:07)

Re: I've always wondered (57,228) (57,234) by Tevin from USA She probably would have said: "Why do I lipsynce so much, I must be sick a lot, and who the heck is Ariana?" At least I still have my looks. (Monday 12 October 2015; 2:45)

Re: I've always wondered (57,228) (57,233) by Lee TS from USA '90 MC would probably say something like, "I don't think we can be categorized as singers because I don't lip sync my performances. Where some artists are more image based and overtly sexual, I want to be recognized for being a singer-songwriter. I like her heart necklace though, very cute." Lol I don't know just for laughs. (Sunday 11 October 2015; 23:32)

Re: Rihanna (57,210) (57,232) by Giovanni from USA Great post May. Everything you stated is the truth. I like Rihanna but she's just not the artist or singer who should be the one to tie or break Mariah's number ones record. I agree that Mariah needs the best producers for her next album. (Sunday 11 October 2015; 22:18)

We Belong Together at BET Awards (57,231) by Giovanni from USA Such an amazing performance. The way the music was arranged, so good. The intro was very 70's. She literally slayed every female singer who was relevant that year. Hell Mariah slays anyone today lol. When she belts she shows just how amazing her voice is. It's simply untouchable. When I watch performances like this I need all the current artists who are in the music industry today to have a seat. They could never. (Ariana girl I'm mainly referring to you. You too Beyonce.) (Sunday 11 October 2015; 21:34)

Re: Mariah's next single (57,225) (57,230) by Giovanni from USA I agree, it would be awesome if she did that. Surely there has to be one or two songs from the 90's unreleased that could hit number one of the charts. Mariah is just two more number ones away from breaking The Beatles' record. With everything that's happened in her life, she deserves some more hit songs to her name. I have a feeling her next album will be epic. I need another "The Emancipation Of Mimi" era. Great songs, videos, performances and promotion. I want Mariah to slay all her haters. If she releases amazing songs, records great videos and promotes she'll surely score some more number ones. I think the first step is to write with good producers. I have no problem if she works with Jermaine on one or two tracks. (Sunday 11 October 2015; 21:17)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey explains album delay in letter to fans (57,227) (57,229) by Lara from Middle East Ah ok, it's the letter from 2013. I thought there was a new letter (how awesome would that be). No I'm not new, but I open the site from my phone and the format here doesn't show me the history (neither the discography). (Sunday 11 October 2015; 21:09)

I've always wondered (57,228) by Randy from USA What 1990 MC would think of 2015 MC? (Sunday 11 October 2015; 20:27)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey explains album delay in letter to fans (57,223) (57,227) by B from USA From "This Day in History". Are you new to MCA? (Sunday 11 October 2015; 19:54)
