Negativity (56,420) by JAXGH from United States People here should try to just love. I find the lambily really incredibly entitled to their opinions and very sensitive that they sometimes forget to just spread the love. It's not a competition. Someone praises an album and someone has to say "nope". Just agree and stay positive. Even if you disagree, just say it on a nicer way. After all, we're all Mariah Carey lambily. God bless you all.

Re: The Weeknd (56,406) (56,419) by Mike from FL, USA I couldn't agree more. (Tuesday 1 September 2015; 2:45)

Vinyl #1 To Infinity (56,418) by Matty from Vancouver Canada I'm just curious, who all bought #1 to Infinity on vinyl? Like this post if you did. Since the vinyl went on sale August 28th (I just received my copy in the mail today), I'm curious if the album will re-enter Billboard because of vinyl sales. I'm so glad Epic released this album on vinyl, I've always been sad that MIAM was her only standard Island Def Jam album not to be released on vinyl. My full-album Mimi vinyl collection includes: Charmbracelet, Emancipation, E=MC2, Memoirs and now #1 To Infinity. I'd love Butterfly on vinyl. (Tuesday 1 September 2015; 2:19)

Re: The Weeknd (56,406) (56,417) by B from USA Mariah and Stella make it happen. (Tuesday 1 September 2015; 1:49)

Re: Empire (56,407) (56,416) by B from USA These rumors aren't true. The National Enquirer originated the rumor and the gossip magazines and blogs ran with it. I hope Mariah plays a fictionalized version of herself. She's always accused of taking herself too seriously and this is what she needs to do at the moment. If she shows her acting chops and sings (live) a few snippets of an amazing new song written with The Weekend or Miguel she could make a comeback. I also think she will shed the weight before filming her scenes because you know she's going to want to look her best. (Tuesday 1 September 2015; 1:47)

Re: Memoirs (56,409) (56,414) by B from USA I'm sorry but I only like Obsessed, Candy Bling, Standing O, Angel (The Prelude), and Languishing. I found Memoirs underwhelming. I barely listen to it. I found it uninspired ans repetitive. (Tuesday 1 September 2015; 1:30)

Re: Empire (56,407) (56,413) by Licia from USA Haha. Mimi L you trying to get that Empire money? Tell Mr Daniels to cut that check asap. You are selling it. Lol. (Tuesday 1 September 2015; 0:55)

MOAIA (56,412) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada It's so nice to see the album getting some love lately. I'd gotten used to it being generally abhorred, and I absolutely love this album. I never tire of it and she gave some stunning live performances during this era. I was so fortunate to be able to get the collector's box. It's in my top 3 albums. (Monday 31 August 2015; 23:42)

The best singer in the world (56,410) by B from USA I typed the above sentence into Google search and the first image was Mariah followed by Elvis and Celine. It's nice to know that her legend is still secure even if her fan base thinks a few underwhelming singles are ruining her legacy. (Monday 31 August 2015; 21:11)

Memoirs (56,409) by QueenLambassador from Portugal I've been listening alot to Memoirs. I think I appreciate this album alot more now than I did in 2009. I always loved it but now it's different. Mariah's voice is so sultry and sexy and the lyrics are so simple and fun. This album also has my favourite booklet since ever - the Elle partnership worked wonderfully and showed us some of Mimi's favourite things in life. Favourite songs off this album: Candy Bling, Impossible and More Than Just Friends. (Monday 31 August 2015; 20:53)

Vacantion moments, she's enjoying (56,408) by QueenLambassador from Portugal It's refreshing to see Mariah relaxing and enjoying her new found hapiness. We all want new music but the way some people demand it is just ridiculous. (Monday 31 August 2015; 20:49)

Re: Empire (56,404) (56,407) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter You won't regret it. Plus they have good music. And since it's a continuing story line, starting from season 2 would be confusing for you. There are like 13 episode in season 1. Won't take long. Haha I swear Lee didn't sponsor me for this little advertisement. (Monday 31 August 2015; 20:23)

Re: The Weeknd (56,395) (56,406) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada Yup that would be awesome. Plus he's very R&B which we know Mariah loves. I was listening to MC this weekend and as much as this community can nitpick, I just adore Mariah as a person and an artist. Her contributions to music and generally as a human on this his planet are amazing. Sure, I have not loved everything all of the time but some of her least successful commercial albums that the world considers flops, I absolutely love them. I feel so much joy watching her perform and I'm not measuring every performance by her past. I may not have dug the Infinity remix, but I so love collecting her music and I feel fortunate. She's still here. Thanks MC. Proud to be a lamb. (Monday 31 August 2015; 20:02)

Game of War (56,405) by supafly from Does anyone know what's going on with the GoW advertisement Mariah was supposed to star in? (Monday 31 August 2015; 17:37)

Re: Empire (56,403) (56,404) by Licia from USA I was thinking about watching season two. I'll have to go back and watch the first season so I won't be lost. I originally wanted to watch the show when it first aired, but I changed my mind. I somehow lost interest before it even aired. Now I feel left out hearing how good it is. Lol. (Monday 31 August 2015; 16:57)

Re: Empire (56,401) (56,403) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Licia, I would strongly recommend Empire if you haven't watched it already. It's a great show with great writing. The actors perform their characters to perfection and yes Cookie is definitely everyone's favorite (including mine of course). Taraji plays the role beautifully. She is like a powerhouse character. Lee did a brilliant job with the show. That is why I was so happy to see Mariah be a part of it, although everyone already expected her to be in season 1. But Lee did pay homage to her in season 1 as well with a huge portrait of Mariah placed in the background very prominently. (Monday 31 August 2015; 16:15)

Stealing Taraji's Thunder (56,402) by Terri from USA I think the media makes up stuff to create gossip and derision. I doubt Taraji gives a dam about the possibility of MC taing attention from her. First, Taraji, most likely, realizes that the appearance of MC in whatever role, will definitely add to the ratings, and that it's not like she's becoming a cast member, it's a guest role like all the other invitees by Lee (i.e. Chris Rock, for another). And the article, pointing out that MC has been asked to appear because she's a friend of Lee's, well, "Duh", just about all of the celebrity guest invitees mentioned over the last are friends of Lee's. There is no story here. Just can't wait to see ultimate real diva MC on the show. Hopefully, he will create a diva role for her, because in her last 2 roles in his movies he really down-played her aura. Actually, I can envision "diva street byatch" Cookie having a showdown with "diva highbrow byatch" MC. Mmm, good TV. (Monday 31 August 2015; 15:44)

Re: Empire (56,398) (56,401) by Licia from USA I also agree with Mimi L and Lee TS. Mariah is the queen of music, but Taraji is great at the acting. I don't even watch Empire, but from what I heard Cookie is that chick on the show lol. I hope this is all just a rumor though because Mariah doesn't need more bad press especially if she's really serious about keeping up with the acting. I've always loved how Lee is with Mariah when it comes to work. He loves the diva, but when it comes to doing his job he makes her leave divariah outside the studio. I too hope Mariah's character is different from her everyday image. She's so funny and people need to see that. When she did her little cameo on The Real Husbands Of Hollywood, I expected something funny and so out of character, but all I got was diva. That was a missed opportunity to show non fans a different side of her. (Monday 31 August 2015; 13:56)

Re: Taraji (56,396) (56,400) by MimiLamb from Germany I read that Lee wants Mariah to play herself on Empire, don't know if it's true though. Who (persona) and what (singer or whatever) role she's going to play is not really Mariah's decision but Lee's, so if people don't like her appearance when it airs, know where to direct your disappointment. (Monday 31 August 2015; 12:51)

Re: The Weeknd (56,395) (56,399) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I am all for a Mariah and The Weeknd collaboration. I absolutely love "I can't feel my face" and he can bring a fresh sound to her like Miguel did with #Beautiful. (Monday 31 August 2015; 12:30)

Empire (56,398) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I agree with Lee TS. Mariah is the queen of the music industry but in Empire, Taraji is the boss. She is the main character and I hope Mariah respects that. The rumor was started by Hollywood life so I really wouldn't trust it just yet. Plus Lee is always good with keeping Mariah professional in his projects. He has stated that she is always on time and is always game to try anything for him. So I hope it's the same for Empire and I really hope her role is the opposite of the glamorous diva. People need to see her acting skills if she wants to explore that region. She did really good in "Precious". But she can't always rely on Lee to cast her. I mean of course Lee will, but if she wants other directors to consider her for roles, she needs to show her acting skills and a diva role would not do much for her acting because she already plays that part in real life. I'd like Lee to do what Lee does best with Mariah, that is to bring her out of her comfort zone. (Monday 31 August 2015; 12:24)

Re: Taraji (56,396) (56,397) by darrian liu from taiwan The diva rumor might be very overblown. There's no way Mariah could "ruin" Empire because it's a drama, not reality TV. American Idol is a reality TV show, so when people saw the feuds they thought that the show has no essence anymore, as if it's centered on the feuds. Mariah just needs to amp up her acting prowess and if the diva acts are true, she needs to stop those because it could ruin the damage control she's done during the past few months. (Monday 31 August 2015; 12:09)

Re: Taraji (56,394) (56,396) by Lee TS from USA I'm sorry but Cookie is the boss ass b*tch up in Empire, Mariah needs to know her place. She needs to arrive in an Uber with no make up on and hair pulled back, and no entourage. Lee is going to check her diva attitude at the door. Maybe M can play Cookie's second cousin who's a crackhead and hits Cookie up for some money and threatens to sell her out to the tabloids. I just want M to be far removed from glamour and divaness, she needs to get into a character role. Oh what if Lee can get her to chop her hair off looking all kinds of messed up. Maybe even sport a facial scar or something. (Monday 31 August 2015; 11:09)

The Weeknd (56,395) by 123 from USA I would love for Mariah to do a song with the Weeknd. Something structured like Earned It would be a welcome sound for her or even the pop friendly I Can't Feel My Face. (Monday 31 August 2015; 5:55)

Taraji (56,394) by Giovanni from USA Better sit down somewhere. Mariah is a legend and when she arrives on set it's going to be all about her. She should be glad and appreciative being in the presence of one best music artists of all time. Because there's a chance it could be just a rumor to start drama, but oh well. Anyways, I hope Mariah looks her best and puts on a great acting performance. (Monday 31 August 2015; 3:14)
