Re: BET performance (100,601) (100,610) by Lady B from USA "I hope people can see the difference between last night/Billboard speech and the SHOF speech." Yes, for starters she was singing in one and giving an acceptance speech for something she worked hard toward for 30+ years in another. I agree it's different, such a good point! Both were amazing. I'm so proud of her. I love that she is enjoying herself after a long career of success and, frankly, no one of her peers are having this much success at 50+. It's a testament to her longevity and greatness that goats here often compare her to folks 10, 20 or 30 years her junior. (Wednesday 29 June 2022; 08:49)

Re: BET performance (100,607) (100,609) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Then stop criticizing our beloved Mariah. (Wednesday 29 June 2022; 07:48)

She's in on it (100,608) by Matty from Vancouver Canada I think the missing Lego piece for some Lambs (the group calling themselves the OG fans) is that the public loves the sunglass moments, and lighting jokes, the eye rolls and the tears every now and then etc. That's part of her signature. That's what made Mariah the Meme Queen of social media and has kept her relevant in the public discord even though she's only released three albums in the last 8 years. Non-Mariah fans that I know love that clip of her being wheeled to the stage in an office chair, and no one is laughing at her, they laugh with her. It's bloody hilarious. She knows how to play it out. She doesn't always hit her mark (ie: that radio interview she did years ago in NYC and tried her glasses bit and it didn't land), but people enjoy her and she enjoys them. Would you rather her take the Madonna route? Madonna looks like she was produced by the Mattel factory then stung with bees. (Wednesday 29 June 2022; 02:35)

Re: BET performance (100,606) (100,607) by Stacey from USA Yes I can. My kids love me and my trademark. I am a goat after all in their eyes. My husband would agree too. Haha. Nice try. Look, there is a big difference between her BET moment, the Billboard speech, and the SHOF speech. I'm not saying she has to be a robot. We got enough of that during the Tommy years. But seriously to focus on lighting during a moment she's fought for decades to get recognition for baffles my mind. Moments like the BET performance remind everyone she truly is the goat. Leave the sunglasses at home. Sincerely, Lady Goat Stacey (Tuesday 28 June 2022; 19:39)

Re: BET performance (100,601) (100,606) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Why should she get rid of her gimmicks? It's her trademark, and what I have seen, her trademark has done good in life. Can you say that about your trademark? (Tuesday 28 June 2022; 16:56)

Re: BET performance (100,604) (100,605) by Carlos from Brazil It was so goooood! She and Latto finally did it. What a performance! (Tuesday 28 June 2022; 12:55)

Re: BET performance (100,599) (100,604) by Jamie from UK Did you hear that crowd? They loved her. Go MC. (Tuesday 28 June 2022; 07:42)

Non crediting for BER (100,603) by "MariahHater" from Hell Hmm. Based on Latto's latest tweet, I can infer that Mariah purposely did not let herself be credited but pushed the original on better heights. What a humble diva. (Tuesday 28 June 2022; 06:21)

Re: BET performance (100,599) (100,602) by Bobby A from United States I just thought about this MC has darn near worked with almost everybody who hosted, performed, or recognized at the BET Awards last night. Who else can say that? No one. (Tuesday 28 June 2022; 03:32)

Re: BET performance (100,595) (100,601) by Stacey from USA I hope people can see the difference between last night/Billboard speech and the SHOF speech. I agree it was short, but most importantly she looked and sounded great. Those whistles were on fire. Get rid of the gimmicks and own the moment. (Tuesday 28 June 2022; 03:07)

What's next? (100,600) by Dav from Ireland Mariah said there's no surprise album right? So what's next? I need new music! (Tuesday 28 June 2022; 02:15)

Re: BET performance (100,597) (100,599) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Her voice sounds so healthy and she looked so confident just going for it. (Tuesday 28 June 2022; 02:09)

Re: BET performance (100,594) (100,598) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The entrance was epic and so powerful, totally worthy of a legend and props to Latto for just letting Mariah shine. She just left the stage and let Mariah takeover. It was really respectful of her. Also it's so sweet to see Mariah come out to support another up and coming female artist because she really didn't need to come out, because it's been a while since she made a public appearance and when she decided to make one it was to support another artist instead of her own thing. I'm super glad she did it because as a lamb any moment Mariah gets her legend status recognition is a whole event. (Tuesday 28 June 2022; 02:09)

Re: BET performance (100,595) (100,597) by Tevin from USA Wow I was not expecting that. That is how you make an entrance. Mariah looked amazing, sung fully live, and wow those whistles still pack a punch. 10 out of 10 (Tuesday 28 June 2022; 00:21)

Re: BET performance (100,587) (100,596) by Bill from the UK Agree, Mariah looked and sounded great. (Monday 27 June 2022; 23:50)

Re: BET performance (100,594) (100,595) by Edward from USA I concur. That entrance was epic. Sadly her part was too short, but it was an entrance worthy of a Mega Star nonetheless. Cordially, Sir Goat Edward (Monday 27 June 2022; 22:34)

Re: BET performance (100,593) (100,594) by Stacey from USA Now that is how legends make an entrance. (Monday 27 June 2022; 22:19)

Re: BET performance (100,589) (100,593) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Her appearance has me shook and I've seen it 20 times by now and each time I get chills because she is such a powerhouse. Also Latto is so sweet she was fangirl-ing hard. (Monday 27 June 2022; 21:45)

Re: BET number 1 trending on YouTube (100,591) (100,592) by TheWind from England Mariah sounded so good. Was such a cute performance. Credit to Latto too. She did good in her own right. Mariah was great, and that one minute cameo was a nice reintroduction to the stage. (Monday 27 June 2022; 21:39)

BET number 1 trending on YouTube (100,591) by Nicole from US Yaasssse big respect. Latto gets my votes now. And everybody loves Mimi like it's Christmas. (Monday 27 June 2022; 18:17)

Re: BET performance (100,589) (100,590) by Bobby A from United States It was the high definition, dahling. (Monday 27 June 2022; 17:51)

Re: BET performance (100,587) (100,589) by 123 from USA Why did she sound better than the record? I wish it was longer. (Monday 27 June 2022; 16:41)

BET performance (100,588) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I loved her at the BET performance, our beloved Mariah is back. (Monday 27 June 2022; 14:08)

BET performance (100,587) by Bobby A from United States That was icing on the cake last night. Mimi sounded so good. I just loved her vocals and performance. Plus, she's so beautiful. Kristofer did her makeup this time. Wow. (Monday 27 June 2022; 07:53)

BET Awards (100,586) by Brad from USA It's heartening to see the BET community honor Mariah, in a kind of way that she always wished they would. She is yours and ours. A unique gift and blessing to us all. Relish the moment, Mariah. You earned and deserve it. (Monday 27 June 2022; 07:01)
