Re: Luke (53,209) by Ardis Logic from Earth That is a great quote. It also reminds me of this one. "In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." - Martin Luther King Jr. (Tuesday 12 May 2015; 0:08)

Re: Spir Ja / Earthing (53,208) by Ardis Logic from Earth On the topic of Mariah "Earthing", I hope it's true that she is doing this. It can be very healing both physically and emotionally. There are so many benefits to Earthing. It truly is amazing, and feels so good. If anyone is curious to know more about Earthing, I made this video about it a couple years ago.

Nick (53,207) by Tiina from Finland Mariah went against her better judgement by marrying Nick after only a few weeks of dating (and he left Nicole Scherzinger for her). Before that she always said that if she's to marry again she would have to get to know the person first. The whole world was shocked by their union. And then her friends said "He's a playa, slow it down." Everyone had a hard time believing she would marry some B-rated celebrity just like that. Because that's what he was at the time and certainly getting married to Mariah raised his status. I do think Mariah was genuinly in love with him and that he loved her too. In the beginning they seemed to fit well together and even though I've never considered Nick that funny (in fact I think he's childish) he seemed to make her happy. That is until he started working all the time (doing "some stupid shows" as MC put it in the Breakfast Club interview). "You used to be mister all about me, now you're just thirsty for celebrity." And talking about their private stuff like their sex life and celebs he'd banged and oh, naming his wife, the mother of his children, among the other women. Tacky and disrespectful. And let's not forget the interview with Barbara Walters and Mariah saying she only trusted Nick "sometimes". He's still being his tacky self referencing Mariah on his Instagram. Mimi L is right, there's no point, like why? "Show is over you ain’t gotta act." (Monday 11 May 2015; 23:53)

Landing with feet on the ground (53,206) by Spir Ja from USA I don't know why I had a dream about this, but I did. I hope that Mariah is practicing her yoga and everything else and walking barefoot on the earth [...] (instead of tippytoeing). I feel like she is very much grounded to earth and I'm curious if her recently mentioned yoga practice took her there. I hope so. (Monday 11 May 2015; 23:29)

"A butterfly in Vegas" (53,205) by Ardis Logic from Earth I hope this is true because I would totally buy this DVD. (Monday 11 May 2015; 23:27)

First impressions Vegas / Anita Baker (53,204) by Billy from Greece From the first couple of shows, all I can say is that Mariah is looking gorgeous, sounds wonderful and is "present" once again. I don't want to assume too much, or sound as if I know what she's been up to as if I was sitting next to her, but she does come across as more involved in the shows. Also, she looks fabulous with the curly hair. Finally, it is so nice to see a great R&B singer and artist like Anita Baker being so supportive of Mariah, be it through social media or going to her concerts. Great camaraderie. (Monday 11 May 2015; 23:13)

MIAM (53,203) by Licia from USA I agree. We know nothing besides what is in the media. All we can do is speculate. I'm sure Mariah is hurt by the divorce, but other than that I have no idea what happened to end their marriage. I'm not going to be mad at him just because he decided to file first and I'm not going to proclaim he's a bad guy without really knowing what happened. Anyway the only people I stand for are those kids. Mariah and Nick will be fine and eventually will move on. Those kids are just stuck. (Monday 11 May 2015; 23:12)

Ardis (53,202) by Luke from United Kingdom I agree. My dad always tells me this quote "It only takes good people to do or say nothing for evil to prevail." I'm not sure who it was that said it but that has always stuck in my mind. (Monday 11 May 2015; 22:52)

A butterfly in Vegas? (53,201) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I don't know if this rumor is true but I sure hope it is. Don't know if you all have seen this link yet. (Monday 11 May 2015; 22:11)

Re: Miam (53,200) by Ardis Logic from Earth "Why are you people going after Nick again?" It's obviously (to some of us) that he broke her heart. True she did not come right out and say this directly, but you can read between the lines of her interview, in her music, and in the way she responds to questions being asked about him. If you want to believe that Nick and Mariah just broke up in a friendly way, and she was crying during concerts, and showing signs of being under great stress for other reasons than Nick, that is your right to believe that. I just speak from the heart. I follow what my gut instinct tells me. I feel protective over Mariah. I don't like when people take advantage of or hurt her. So I will speak out against it. He needs to know that some of us are not buying his lame attempt. (Monday 11 May 2015; 22:11)

Billboard (53,199) by NHYTG from nyc Billboard has an item called 15 Awesome Billboard Music Award Performances and Mariah's I Still Believe is one of them. Great but simple performance, the voice was there and that was enough to make it awesome indeed. (Monday 11 May 2015; 21:59)

Nick again? (53,198) by MIAM from United Kingdom Really why are you people going after Nick again? Give it a rest please. Explaining and reading their situation like you are an immediate a part of it and have witnessed it all. Well news flash, you are no where near them to know anything, plus neither one has actually said anything to back up what you lot are saying. So put it to bed already [...] (Monday 11 May 2015; 21:32)

Jenny (53,197) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Wow I completely forgot about the "ain't no compliments", "ain't no being friends", "ain't no false pretense" part. That does say a lot. Plus MC's short but polite replies whenever Nick is brought up speaks volumes. She really doesn't want to talk about him or give him any more media space. When asked what she thinks of all the praises Nick has showered her with recently, she just replies "that's nice" and moves on. Two words, more effective than all the multiple post spree Nick is on. (Monday 11 May 2015; 21:01)

Actions vs. words (53,196) by Ardis Logic from Earth You all know that old saying. "Actions speak louder than words." That is so true in this case. His actions have showed what kind of person he is. Someone else mentioned it best, he is just posting these things "for the world to see" not his children or Mariah. Sorry Nick, those of us who have the ability to see the shadiness in people can see right through your fakeness. (Monday 11 May 2015; 20:46)

Eternal / Vegas (53,194) by Stacey from USA I agree. I was so excited to learn MC would be singing LTT and IDWC. IDWC has to be one of my favorite ballads. It is always running through my head. She really did a great job with a difficult song. I'm glad to see her taking it easy with the uptempo songs, letting the backing track, dancers, and props take more of the lead. That way she can conserve more of her voice for the ballads which tend to rely on her voice to take the lead. I'm glad to see Vegas is being kind to Mariah. MC has surrounded herself with good professionals who know how to market this gem of a voice. Seems like everything with the show is polished and can only get better from this point. MC needed this. If all goes well, the Vegas residency will really set her up for that next album to blow us all out of the park, lol. (Monday 11 May 2015; 18:23)

Another thing about Nick (53,193) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The difference between Nick and Mariah regarding their roles as parents is that MC is doing whatever is needed for the kids' happiness without posting a million tweets/instagram posts about it. She isn't going around using Nick's pictures to show that she is being so friendly with Nick for her kids. She is doing whatever she has to do without declaring it to the world. Same can't be said about Nick. Why is it so important to post these for the world to see? I mean it's not like his kids are on instagram that it's for their benefit and by the time they are of the age to use these, they'll already know what is up so these are pointless. So just don't say anything, no positives, no negatives. I was just going through Nick's instagram and saw he posted a picture of a bag of Fritos. Basically I think he just loves to stir up controversies. (Monday 11 May 2015; 18:22)

Nicks "loving" message (53,192) by Luke from United Kingdom I don't believe the whole lovey crap. People can be respectable and helpful while divorcing but they don't display their worldy love for the ex. Most people move on but he isn't most people. He's just a creep and trying to wind Mariah up. I can see right through his whole act, defend him all you want but if you can't see what he is doing you probably haven't had to deal with snakes like him in reality. A more respectable post would have been wishing his children a lovely day with their mother on Mother's Day and leave it at that. You don't need to add on how much you love your divorced ex to make headlines as the yearning victim. The new song probably is about him but where is the proof? The way it is written it could be about the old record label. His approach to Mariah is nothing but manipulative and sly. Lessons he must learned from a father that seems to enjoy disrespecting curvier women. Sorry rant over. (Monday 11 May 2015; 18:20)

Nick (53,191) by Jenny from South Africa I agree with Mimi. I also never heard of Nick until he married Mariah. I supported their marriage because she was clearly very happy for the first couple years. I wouldn't mind Nick coming out saying nice things about Mariah on Twitter if she was happy about it but I think the lyrics in infinity make it clear that she doesn't want him to do that. "Ain't no false pretense", "ain't no being friends" are key indications to me that she doesn't want him to and maybe she thinks it's fake. Obviously that's my interpretation and I could be wrong. And honestly when Nick first finally defended her on Twitter after the split rumours had been out for a while I really think he just did that out of obligation because he was really defending the first girl the media had paired him up with. He ended that whole Twitter speech defending that woman. (I can't remember her name.) He probably thought it would look bad for him to break his silence to defend only another woman and not Mariah too. Again it's just my opinion and I could just be biased lol. (Monday 11 May 2015; 17:42)

Mimi L. (53,190) by Licia from USA I too enjoy reading your posts. I don't mind you or anyone having a difference opinion. It's nice to be on opposite sides and still be able to talk respectfully to each other. It's all good. I like to talk. (Monday 11 May 2015; 17:37)

Licia (53,189) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter You know I always love your posts so much so it does make me feel bad that I am writing something that differs from your opinion, so I hope you don't take it personally. About Nick, while it's true he didn't say anything about MC publicly, he did go on joking about her in his shows even after MC went on and on about how she wants him to stop, he didn't say anything when his father made those disgusting statements supposedly directed at MC, he talked about his past sexual partners (when he could have refused to do so, I mean it's fine for a bachelor to say those not a married father of 2). As for him being famous before Mariah, I personally never heard his name before MC. I am also not hearing his name after MC except for when he mentions her name, or when he is grinding around (and Mc's name is dragged in) and when he is trying to cover MC's tattoo with an elabborate Jesus one. (Not saying he should keep the tattoo of MC though.. Anyways all this aside, good luck to all the parties involved. And love to you. (Monday 11 May 2015; 16:36)

Mimi L . (53,188) by Licia from USA I respect your opinion as well and I get what and why you're saying it, but some of what you stated is untrue. First of all those gigs are still coming through despite the divorce. You all forget that he was making moves before Mariah. Second of all Nick has defended Mariah plenty of times during her rough year. The media tried to bait him into saying bad things about her bad performances and he defended her. I have not heard him say anything remotely disrespectful about her since he filed for divorce. Everything bad that I've heard is purely rumors and speculation from both sides. My point is that he should be saying things like this in public. Not for us, but for the benefit of his kids. Right now they don't understand what's going on, but when they get older they will understand and the last thing they need to see is their mom and dad acting a fool on social media or anywhere else taking shots at each other. Those kids will already have to deal with the other junk that comes with having famous parents. They don't need the two people who obviously love them airing out the negative stuff in public. Having said all of that, I'm not sure what his intentions really are. I can only hope he's doing it for the right reason. (Monday 11 May 2015; 16:03)

Lol (53,187) by Raphael from Brazil My bad guys. I thought it was an old one haha. (Monday 11 May 2015; 15:50)

What ever happened to Racine ? (53,186) by Emmanuel from Canada Am I the only one who has noticed that RaeRae has been missing? What do you guys think happened? Do you think MC fired her? After reading the Mail Online interview, I feel so much compassion for Mariah. It explains why she wasn't promoting MIAM and why she was isolated during that period. (Monday 11 May 2015; 15:35)

Ethan (53,185) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I agree with you about the hospital. I know MC said that she told him to go back to finish the video, but really how important is a video when your wife has suffered an injury which was apparently equivalent to get hit by a bus. Plus the video was never even released, so it wasn't that important after all and I think Nick can afford the best out there to edit the video while he stood by his wife while she got the scare of having to probably live with a paralyzed hand. In all honesty, I think MC said she told Nick to leave because she was saving face for herself and her marriage. Would anyone of you here leave your loved ones (even if they told you to) and go and finish a darn video if you knew that they were in a world of pain and at the risk of never recovering? Ethan, about her body, she lost all the weight before she met Nick. She got thin around 2007 while she dated Nick around 2008, so the weight theory is something I am not sure about. But well Nick's dad did indirectly say "How can a man love his woman when he can't stand to look at her?" Cheap dig. (Monday 11 May 2015; 15:07)

Licia (53,183) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I respect your opinion, but I still stand by mine. Where is all this love coming from all of a sudden? All the time MC was being blasted by the media the last year, Nick never came to her defense. There were no lovey-dovey notes left for her for the world to see. Nick's move is very calculative this time around. While the diss record got rave reviews, many people are also calling out Mariah for dissing the father of her children, so in comes Nick with all the love in the world because he knows he'll make headlines as the ex husband who is still respecting his ex-wife and posting one lovey-dovey thing after another while his "arrogant wife is dissing him publicly". Just another way to show he is the bigger person. I am sorry but no, I don't believe all these crap. MC is not perfect but I believe her when she says implicitly that Nick has put her through a lot of pain. Nick just probably thought that now that he has so many gigs lined up, he no longer needs MC. But since the divorce how much have we really heard about Nick except for when he is talking about MC? Even his hook ups are only getting media time because Mariah's name is coming into it. It is what it is. This is just Nick's way of getting media attention. When they got divorced, the majority of people said "good riddance for Nick, it must be hell to live with that demanding woman" because Nick always maintains an image that he is loving and caring and is "putting up" with MC's demands because he loves her. He was always portrayed as the victim and the bigger person. So now he is trying to do the same again, to show he is above MC because he doesn't have to diss her. But flashback to a few months earlier, what kind of respectable man drags his ex-wife's and mother of his children's name to a song where he is talking about banging multiple girls? He made headlines when he was promoting MC's song "Infinity" but really he had no idea it was about him. MC said so herself that even her good friends didn't hear the song until it was released. Like I said, I will honor your opinion, but I will still stand by mine and that is NC is only going public with his "over-flowing affection" because his gigs are drying up. He wants the attention of the media and he wants the attention of MC. (Monday 11 May 2015; 14:59)
