"One More Try" (49,240) by Billy from Greece Am I the only one that gets a lump in their throat just with the opening bars of "One More Try"? The original song is obviously gorgeous, but Mariah's version. It is this album's "The Beautiful Ones", primarily in terms of meaning and significance at the point that it was recorded. Mariah is totally "naked" in this song, showing what a brave artist she really is. Especially when she's whispering "who's the teacher, I'm the student", I just lose it. Such an emotional song.

US lambs (49,239) by Billy from Greece I'm so gutted and jealous over the US lambs being able to go see MC. I need to pay over 1000 dollars for an airplane ticket just to get to Vegas, meaning no show for me. I want to see Mariah live dammit. When will be my turn? Cry baby, I cry.

Mariah on Ellen hilarious as always (49,238) by May from Denmark I have to say I almost fell from my chair when I saw Mariah in the cleaning service dress, she looked fun, relaxed, having a great time but what made me die of laughter was the woman who said "I think it's Mariah. I saw her hair." Hahahahaha. Mariah's hair is iconic. I love every time she appears on Ellen, never a disappointment. (Friday 16 January 2015; 21:38)

"Meteorite" (49,237) by Billy from Greece Can we acknowledge the banger that this hypnotic track is? Mariah is the epitome of the dance diva here. Superb work from a masterpiece album. (Friday 16 January 2015; 21:33)

Haha nice try B (49,236) by May from Denmark Thanks B, I already kinda found out. The Pearl had four shows while this one will have 11 runs on fixed days (for now) and if all goes as expected it will close with a couple more shows until July 26th. I was wondering what was the difference because I thought it in a span of like 2 years haha (something like living there), so I was confused. It's the first time I hear about it as I never followed any other artist before who has done a "residency" and since Mariah said that it was a new experience I imagined something else. All I can say is that now more than ever would love a DVD from this upcoming event, it's been a long while since the release of an official one. (Friday 16 January 2015; 21:31)

Las Vegas (49,234) by Alonzo from US I just purchased my tickets for July 8, I am beyond excited. I went to her Adventures of MiMi tour and missed out on Angels Adovocate but I am definetly making it to this. (Friday 16 January 2015; 19:58)

Pearl (49,233) by B from USA The difference between Mariah's shows at The Pearl and her residency is that it was a limited run of concerts not a residency, lol. (Friday 16 January 2015; 16:25)

If Only You Knew/Somewhere Over The Rainbow (49,232) by B from USA Does anyone have a better version than the one on YouTube of Mariah singing this medley of Patti Labelle songs? I love it. It's probably in my top five Mariah performances. BTW, I'm buying tickets to see Mariah in Vegas. It will be the first time I've ever seen her. I bet it will be like a religious experience, lol. (Friday 16 January 2015; 16:15)

Thank God I Found You (49,231) by Dove from USA I hope she sings this with Trey Lorenz, I love them together and I love his voice. (Friday 16 January 2015; 15:10)

Excited (49,230) by Gilbert from USA At first I was bummed out, well not bummed out I guess the word would be a bit melancholy. But the nice news was her announcement for Las Vegas. It all landed on my birthday (January 15) and once I arrived to work I noticed her tickets were already going on sale so I rushed as fast as I could and had some trouble with the codes but eventually I did get through so I will be seeing Mariah on May 13, 2015. So it was a nice surprise. (Friday 16 January 2015; 14:07)

Mariah on Ellen (full episode) (49,229) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands (Friday 16 January 2015; 13:56)

Vegas here I come (49,228) by Ty from USA I never thought I would go back to Vegas. But Mariah has me back on board with incredible seats for her show. The thought of finally hearing Someday, [...] live, while I know it will be partially live, is still an incredible spring moment to look forward to. [...] would be incredible.

Correction (49,227) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The red dress was not from her last appearance on Ellen, I forgot about the episode where she was pregnant. I was referring to the one she wore in 2008. It was red and basically very similar to the one she is wearing on this episode. Both looked stunning on her. (Friday 16 January 2015; 10:18)

Mariah, she's on fire (49,226) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter MC looked so good on Ellen. Gorgeous, glamorous, confident and perfect. She really did look flawless. From the hair, makeup to the dress, everything was on point. I love how the dress is quite similar to the red version she wore on Ellen the last time she went there. MC looked half her age. The one with the hotel maid sketch was also perfection. I loved the hairstyle, something I haven't seen her do before and I loved how she was so playful and funny. This is why I love MC on Ellen. I think the best accessory MC had on was her gorgeous smile. In the past few months, I felt that eventhough she was smiling, it was not genuine because she was in a lot of pain. But she seems to have shaken it off. I am so happy for her. Oh and I loved how she said "ofcourse" when she was asked if she will party with Britney. (Friday 16 January 2015; 10:05)

Ellen / LV (49,224) by Dove from USA Mariah looked perfect on Ellen. She was happy, confident, and glowing. There is nothing I can add that hasn't already been said here. Her hair and make up was perfect. The color and cut of the dress were super flattering. Her mood was great. I feel like I'm dreaming. This new era is off to a great start. Using older pictures is fine because it's a retrospective concert. (And because I love that picture.) I am definitely going to see Mariah in Vegas because I believe a true fan supports their favorite artist's projects. I can feel that this residency is coming to us from a place of love and it's going to be amazing. She's been there for me my entire life (practically) and now I'm going to be there for her, today and always. Fans: if you can afford to go to this please do not miss it. Caesar's can still sell a lot of tickets to locals and casual fans who are in LV for other reasons but the real fans should be the ones experiencing the amazing-ness that's about to go down. Mariah I love you and I always will. I am shining my light on you and praying for your happiness. I know (because I can feel it) that these concerts will be as magical in real life as they are in my heart. (Friday 16 January 2015; 6:52)

Otti (49,223) by Abraham from USA I knew you would. This is the best she's looked since the "Beautiful" video. I think she looks like she's in her late 30's. (Friday 16 January 2015; 6:36)

#1s re-release and about Glitter (49,222) by Isabelle from USA I'm assuming that Mariah owns or co-owns her master recordings under Universal, reason that her name is next to copyright and sound-recording copyright symbol is with the label she is signed to. So she wouldn't really need Universal's approval to go ahead with this project. I really don't like the idea of other lamb's suggesting she should add demos of the songs or newly resung songs versions of her #1s because she done that with Hero. I want her to save her those demo versions or resung to her studio albums re-releases. The content in the album should be the 18 #1s with their music videos, her decision to keep or not the non-number ones hits from the first release along with the newly recorded music and have a documentary or commentary of her songs. I was looking around and found an article in NY Times about how Mariah basically received all 100% of profits that Glitter made by them paying her to dissolve their contract with her. It also says artist would no longer receive another dime from their music even if all investments are paid off that's why artist some money upfront when doing contracts. No wonder she never acknowledges that Glitter album. There could have also been re-recording restrictions. (Friday 16 January 2015; 3:26)

Mariah on Ellen (49,221) by Bill from the UK I loved loved loved the crowd's reaction to Mariah giving them tickets to her show. Still smiling from ear to ear now. I think this time in Vegas and the new #1's album is an absolutely fantastic way to celebrate such a wonderful and successful career. Well done Mariah. You worked so hard for this, went through so much, suffered both personally and professionally, yet you still shine and glow like the star that you are. I love you so much. (Friday 16 January 2015; 1:07)

Abraham (49,220) by Otti from Belgium I'm with you. Love to she her happy and looking beautiful. I can see it in her eyes, she is here to stay. (Friday 16 January 2015; 0:55)

She is back baby (49,219) by Otti from Belgium I really love the appearance on Ellen. She looks gorgeous. I love her hairdo while she was playing housekeeper. Nice to she her like I used to. And finally she does promo for her work. That's a good sign. (Thursday 15 January 2015; 23:54)

Slant Magazine / Juzmine Sullivan (49,218) by Billy from Greece In an interview with R&B singer-songwriter Juzmine Sullivan, the interviewer (Andrew Chan, also a fan of Whitney) poses this questions: "How much does the singer in you factor into the songwriting process? You listen to some of the other great female singer-songwriters in R&B, like Mariah Carey, and you imagine while they're writing a song, they're keeping in mind that moment when they can make that key change and hit the sweet spot in their range. Is that something you think about while writing?" Cool, right? (Thursday 15 January 2015; 23:49)

Redundant (49,217) by Randy from USA MC looked perfect on Ellen. Beautiful, radiant. Guys I don't hate Nick and I think the whole thing is sad. He may be immature but she likes that sort of thing. Who else was gonna be festive during holidays and anniversaries and such? Yes I was shocked by the marriage but there was a part of me rooting for them to work things out. I know she never wanted to raise children in a divorce situation. I hope we do get a #1s package with new songs. I would be very happy. I am not going to see her in Vegas however. I saw Charmbracelet and she struggled through the verses and lip synced the adlibs and high full voice belts. I refuse to travel and pay to sit through that again. But I wish her well and I am happy you guys are excited. (Thursday 15 January 2015; 23:40)

Glowing (49,216) by Jono from USA Mariah has always been gorgeous, no matter what size, but how incredible does she look? This is just the right amount of sexy without it being overdone, and she's in a dress but not a ridiculous evening gown. This is one of her best looks since she was on Idol over two years ago. And she looked quite happy and ready to move on from the missteps in 2014. Here's hoping that she has much better fortunes this year, and I'm sincerely hoping I can get tickets as one of the show dates will be on my birthday. (Thursday 15 January 2015; 23:31)

MC on Ellen (49,215) by Jay from USA I was only able to catch the first half on the interview (I had to sneak into the break room at work hehe). I wonder if Mariah has a new person on PR because they were playing clips from the Christmas concert and the clip she posted on instagram hitting the high notes. Kinda like, "let us remind the general public who Mariah is". I hope if she does have a new PR person, that they start counter attacking the negative press being put out there. (Thursday 15 January 2015; 22:40)

Opening night baby (49,214) by John john from UK I got opening night tickets next to the stage. I'm beyond happy. (Thursday 15 January 2015; 22:30)
