MC, Ariana and JHud (104,524) by Nikki from usa I'm actually wondering if Ariana and Mariah are working on something together. (Tuesday 12 December 2023; 20:19) this is a reply to message 104,515

MC, Ariana and JHud (104,515) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I too was thinking why is she not giving JHud the time of the day because Jenny was doing the most and Mariah just treated her like background noise while only looking at Ariana. It was a missed opportunity to he really iconic. But I really wonder why Mariah has become so rigid. In a new instagram post of her backstage singing AIW with her team and walking around everyone's jumping and having fun and she is just so stiff. I hope it's not a health issue then I'll feel bad for saying it but it's been really prominent. (Tuesday 12 December 2023; 01:46)

Another close call (104,523) by Andrew from the UK Can somebody explain the appeal of RATCT to me and perhaps every single Brit here? Genuinely interested. (Tuesday 12 December 2023; 20:19) this is a reply to message 104,521

Another close call (104,521) by Edward from USA Brenda is back at number one, but not for such a huge margin: these are the numbers. RATCT: 41.3 million streams (up 18%), 20.5 million radio airplay (down 1%) and 6,000 downloads (up 109%) AIWFCIY: 38.5 million streamsn(up 19%), 24.1 million radio and airplay (up 12%) and 5,000 downloads/sales (up 29%) While RATCT has 2.9 million streams more than AIFCIY, the latter has 3.6 millions radio airplay more than RATCT. Brenda airplay is already decreasing while Mariah's keep going up. AIWFCIY will definitely be number one by Christmas day. Brenda's numbers will deflate faster after Christmas.

O Holy Night (104,520) by SM from Citizen of the World On X @talkofthecharts, she is projected to return to the #1 spot on Hot 100 dated December 23. (Tuesday 12 December 2023; 16:30) this is a reply to message 104,519

O Holy Night (104,519) by Scott from USA I have to say, with Brenda going number 1, what's really to stop at sometime some of Mariah's other Christmas hits going number 1? O Holy Night and others probably deserve that spot as well. Phenomenal vocals. (Tuesday 12 December 2023; 15:50)

Christmas shows 2023 (104,517) by Bobby A from United States What made this year's shows so fabulous and her best yet? I think it is because of her vocal performances, Debbie Allen, impromptu song moments, and her humor. I am excited about 2024. (Tuesday 12 December 2023; 02:28)

MC, Ariana and JHud (104,516) by Andrew from the UK This is just conjecture, but if Mariah focused on J-Hud it may have resulted quickly in her being challenged to "bring it". Concentrating on Ariana was a very safe bet. (Tuesday 12 December 2023; 02:18) this is a reply to message 104,515

MC, Ariana and JHud (104,512) by Andrew from the UK Best part: Mariah not looking at J-Hud because that would aim her "bad side" at the audience/camera so basically ignoring her through the whole performance and concentrating on Ariana. Second best part: having to read her own lyrics off of the floor. Mariah has serious issues. (Monday 11 December 2023; 23:01)

MC, Ariana and JHud (104,514) by Norman from USA I liked the performance up until the solo whistle. Mistakes happen and it was live, but not good. I'm thinking that maybe the stiffness might be due to medication of some sort - maybe bipolar meds? Cognitively she's fine, but the stiffness is the odd part. She's obviously not a dancer but she knows how to cover a stage, so it's not a lack of experience. At the Hollywood Bowl night I went to while still stiff, she moved around a lot better - and by herself mostly - so I'm puzzled. It could also be a back thing. Oddly enough, the energy in the room was fire. (Tuesday 12 December 2023; 00:47) this is a reply to message 104,509

MC, Ariana and JHud (104,509) by Edward from USA It was just a missed opportunity at having an iconic performance. Sorry but that whistle note was awful. (Monday 11 December 2023; 22:13)

Oh Santa MSG with A and J-Hud (104,513) by Stacey from USA See it sung live, lol. That's funny. Oh wait, you meant see it live in person. My bad. (Tuesday 12 December 2023; 00:08) this is a reply to message 104,504

MC, Ariana and JHud (104,511) by Edward from USA She's working on the film adaptation of Wicked: the musical. It's a two-part adaptation. She was already exhausted of releasing music and touring so frequently and admitted to have been on antidepressants. It's a good thing she's focusing on one thing at a time.

MC, Ariana and JHud (104,507) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Not sure if anyone discussed this yet (didn't get to catch up) but when I heard she brought out Ariana (who's been in hiding for years) I was super excited. Side note I think Mariah and Ariana should collaborate on a non Christmas song along the lines of "Touch my body", their voices complement each other. Ok back to the topic, why was Mariah so stiff? Like Ariana was skipping around dancing and enjoying, JHud was moving around but Mariah just looked like she was pinned to one location and wouldn't move. I see this a lot in her appearances. This was an upbeat song and you'd think they'd probably even try to recreate the video choreo, or if there wasn't enough time just walk around. But she was locked in position and looked like she was reading off instructions on a monitor or something. Mariah girl you've been performing to sold out shows for a while now you'd think she'd have more control over her stage presence. (Monday 11 December 2023; 21:52)

Congratulations (104,508) by Zachariah from Croatia Because sometimes I can't understand 56% of what you write. English is not my native language and I don't have a great knowledge of "gay jargon" and googling all the references can be quite exhausting.

Congratulations (104,505) by Andrew from the UK Why do you "have to ask" people's sexual orientation? What purpose does it serve? Mariah is clearly lip-syncing 90% of the show. Sometimes she just clear gives up the pretence and lets the pre-record play. I will say this, also: Mariah is possibly on some serious medication for, even during the J-Hud and Ariana performance, she's having to read the auto-cue or cue-cards by the monitors. Seriously worrying. The performance is clunky. (Monday 11 December 2023; 21:01)

She looks better than ever, she sounds amazing (I don't understand why some people say she is lip syncing when clearly she is singing live) and she will be number one for Christmas.
