Re: MC's Range Media has ties to TM (98,950) (98,952) by Stacey from USA There is only one Hero. That song is in a league of its own. (Tuesday 16 November 2021; 18:37)

Re: Luis Miguel series (98,941) (98,951) by Susana from USA From what I've read in the past, the reason she had that reaction on Idol was because he had dedicated that song to her at one of his concerts. (Tuesday 16 November 2021; 17:03)

Re: MC’s Range Media has ties to TM (98,946) (98,950) by T from USA Adele's new song in the new Hero of 2022. (Tuesday 16 November 2021; 16:20)

Re: Luis Miguel series (98,948) (98,949) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada Well he always gave off strange energy to me during his relationship with Mariah so nothing in the series was really shocking to me. I think when you reach their level of fame it can be super hard to maintain a relationship beyond the career. I was happy to see the series didn't take cheap shots at Mariah on purpose. If anything it made the breakup understandable. It was moving to watch Mariah's American Idol reaction again too, I really felt for her there. (Monday 15 November 2021; 15:00)

Re: Luis Miguel series (98,940) (98,948) by 123 from USA No problem Dee. What where your thoughts? (Monday 15 November 2021; 07:09)

Re: Luis Miguel series (98,941) (98,947) by 123 from USA If you listen to lamb folklore it was After Tonight that he was supposed to duet with Mariah on for Rainbow (now I think that was the song Mariah wanted Toni Braxton on). You had me thinking so I did some digging and this article confirmed what you are saying. David Foster was supposed to produce LM album, Great American Songbook but they sell out over the autotune issue and from the understanding the album never came out. LM did release a version of the song in 2020 with Celine Dion to his fans on Instagram (they sound great together I may add). Do you think that was calculated shade since he removed Mariah and put Celine on instead and only released this one song, especially since this story would be told on his series? Anyway, here is the article I found. (Monday 15 November 2021; 07:08)

Re: MC’s Range Media has ties to TM (98,945) (98,946) by Bobby A from United States Don't worry about Tommy and his friends at Range Media. Adele is about to break records with 30. She is going keep AIWFCIY from making it to #1 on the Hot 100 this year. Have you heard Adele's 30 Hold On? This song is such a personal song for her. Wow. (Monday 15 November 2021; 04:01)

Re: MC’s Range Media has ties to TM (98,943) (98,945) by Edward from USA You will pay for such a post. If you consider yourself to be a true lamb, you have to act like one, a little Coo Coo for Cocoa Puffs. (Monday 15 November 2021; 00:58)

Open Arms (98,944) by Terna from Nigeria Haha. (Sunday 14 November 2021; 20:46)

Re: MC’s Range Media has ties to TM (98,942) (98,943) by Bill from the UK Tommy's been married to Thalia now for over 20 years and is in his 70s. He's not going to actively try to sabotage Mariah. (Sunday 14 November 2021; 19:13)

MC's Range Media has ties to TM (98,942) by T from USA I really wish Mariah would have stayed with Jay's Roc Nation. Their 2019 Christmas campaign was beyond amazing and finally brought AIWFCIY to the top of the charts. I've read that a few of the people at her new management group have ties to her former husband and boss. This guy being the latest, he still works with Tommy Mottolla. Yikes. I hope there won't be any internal sabotage. She should stay far away from anyone affiliated with him. (Sunday 14 November 2021; 14:12)

Re: Luis Miguel series (98,939) (98,941) by Shezz from Pk Thanks for sharing this. They don't paint Mariah in a bad light at all, I wonder what she thinks of her portrayal. Why would you think the song was not "Somos Novios" though? Isn't that why she got so emotional on Idol? Or was it supposed to be an original? (Sunday 14 November 2021; 13:25)

Re: Luis Miguel series (98,939) (98,940) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada Thanks for sharing this. I agree the actress can sing. (Saturday 13 November 2021; 23:55)

Luis Miguel series (98,939) by 123 from USA So I saw this clip on the breakup of Luis Miguel and Mariah. Interesting is was all over a war of the egos. I mean, if you don't want your voice to be altered because you came to the session unprepared and drinking alcohol while recording of course you are going to sound flat and need "help". Lol. They referred to the producer as David. I have a feeling that's David Foster and the song was "After Tonight". Mariah should have given the rights to the song (if they asked for it). May have gotten it some streams and some cash in her pocket for doing nothing. The actress can really sing. That climax was Mariahesque. Especially the whispers. Here is a clip.

Re: Mariah at McDonald's (98,933) (98,938) by Mò from South Africa Myles, I couldn't agree more with you. Nothing wrong with MCs new deal. Champagne, caviar and mermaid dresses makes her unrelatable. There's more to her, she is human. And bottom line it's her decision. The general public believes lambs live in a bubble and lambs sometimes block her success as *gatekeepers*, and often the first to critique her every move. (Saturday 13 November 2021; 12:07)

Re: Mariah at McDonald's (98,934) (98,937) by Lady B from USA Myles gets it. (Saturday 13 November 2021; 05:52)

Re: Mariah at McDonald's (98,933) (98,936) by Stacey from USA Exactly. I don't understand all the annoyance toward this partnership. I think it's a smart business move that will benefit both parties. Carey on. (Saturday 13 November 2021; 04:18)

The Butterfly Lounge (98,935) by Bobby A from United States Has MC's Butterfly Lounge always been Atlanta? I received my FILAC cd today and it says that Mariah recorded her vocals in Atlanta. Just curious if she is now living in Atlanta. Seems like no one recorded their vocals together. Kirk Franklin and the choir recorded their vocals in Arlington Texas. This is the same choir that sings on his albums. Khalid recorded his vocals in Burbank, California. #Beautiful was the last time MC was actual in the studio with her duet partner. (Saturday 13 November 2021; 03:13)

Re: Mariah at McDonald's (98,933) (98,934) by Anonymous from USA Thank you Myles, my thoughts exactly and I couldn't have said it better myself. Let's face it, no one here would turn down that kind of a deal. I'm loving the new Christmas song too. (Friday 12 November 2021; 21:05)

Mariah at McDonald's (98,933) by Myles from CT, USA Oh please! I can't with the haters regarding this deal. This was a huge deal for MC, all the big artists are doing it now. She is not promoting obesity with this deal, that's like saying she is promoting alcoholism with her black Irish liquor. This is a fabulous deal for MC and her marketing team this year deserves all the admiration in the world. Enough with the scrooges please. (Friday 12 November 2021; 17:41)

Re: Mariah McDonald's (98,918) (98,932) by MusicfanJ from Germany Mariah and McDonald's, hmm I wouldn't choose it. Her 90ies commercials were cool, I love the japan commercials with the lipstick and Nescafé. Haha. Today it's too much with all that commercials for my taste. (Friday 12 November 2021; 15:39)

Re: Mariah McDonald's (98,928) (98,931) by Ciaran from Ireland Nobody hates Mariah like I do. But McDonald's is probably the biggest commercial sellout ever. Nobody *likes* McDonald's over the age of 16. Everyone who is an adult will just see it as commercial sellout. There's only two possible responses: "Ooh the Mariah Menu sounds amazing I can't wait to try it" or "Mariah Carey is using her popularity at Christmas to make money off of [censored] fastfood and childhood obesity." Not hard to guess which one is likely. (Friday 12 November 2021; 11:59)

What's the big deal? (98,930) by Stacey from USA I honestly don't know what the big deal is partnering with McDonald's. Plenty of superstars across all genres have endorsed Mickey D's. McD is a global company. MC is a global artist who just happens to also dominate Christmas. Seems like a mutually beneficial agreement during the holiday season. It's for what? Ten days of deals? I'll eat healthy and take my kids. (Friday 12 November 2021; 04:50)

McNasty (98,929) by Geronimo from USA I just realized that I have never been proud of any of Mariah's endorsement choices after Fresh Air Fund and "Camp Mariah". I think she recently said something supportive that I agreed with about a football player who only got famous when some white guys with money to waste refused to keep paying him to throw their ball to other grown men in public. If that counted as an endorsement then I guess I support that endorsement too, in the most generic way possible. Mariah's a great pop artist and that is all anyone has the right to expect from her (within reason, of course). I'm always gonna be a fan of her singing and songwriting but the truth is that her endorsement choices are typically trashy and reflect that which is not terribly polite to mention. I wish I didn't read the entire article containing Mariah saying words about McDonald's toxic garbage. I was actually surprised to hear her admit (whether it is true or not) feeding fast food to her children. I'm not going to judge her personally for doing that, just as I wouldn't stand in judgment of poor people trapped in food deserts. But it is a problem that decent food has become so precarious for working people that what should be a rare treat for little league and junior high athletes after winning a rigorous athletic competition is now a daily feature in the diets of workers and their families around the world. I don't expect Mariah Carey to become Michelle Obama on the issue of food versus chemical trash. But I wish I didn't see her slinging that shit on the proverbial corner either. It's unfair to say that Mariah is making things worse by endorsing McDonald's. But she is dipping pretty low by commercializing Christmas in this cheap kind of way. The meaning of Christmas has always been obscured by commercialization, superstition, sentimentality, and gluttony. I've tried to be a good sport about Mariah's contribution to Christmas as a commodity. Still, when I consider Mariah's background and the choices that she is making around money today I cannot say that she is being untrue to her roots. But roots are typically best left underground for a reason. (Friday 12 November 2021; 02:52)

Re: Mariah McDonald's (98,925) (98,928) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada Yes I don't agree with every endorsement but I certainly don't hate Mariah. (Thursday 11 November 2021; 21:28)
