About Carol from Spain: ML4L :-)

Huffington Post - shame on Nick (36,932) by Carol from Spain I really hope MC pulled Nick's ears up to the cealling on this one. Honestly think, Mimi always kept her private life private because that's how she is. Nick, you've been a very bad boy. I don't care about what they do in the bedroom or anywhere elese, really.

Bring on another Jimmy Fallon moment (36,925) by Carol from Spain The performance was the thing Mariah needed to cement even more her status as Christmas queen. We need more stuff like this. No matter what people say, she will always be the best. The album will be another proof of her amazing talent. I believe in Mariah. (Monday 10 December 2012; 0:12)

Publicity without purpose (36,924) by Carol from Spain Australian press needs to tone down a bit. These guys have been behaving so bad lately. Mariah doesn't need this. (Sunday 9 December 2012; 23:56)

Nicki who? (36,802) by Carol from Spain I can't take this Nicki stuff anymore. Obviously she is dissing Mariah, yet again. This girl doesn't get that she is the only one talking about this. She can't even write proper English. I wish that she goes off again on Idol, so she would be sacked by the producers for good. Mariah is so much better then her for not talking about it. If Mariah ever mentions this, it will be after the show is over and I believe Mariah will speak once and say enough. Let Nicki think she is the best and the one and only judge.

Dem babies: the evolution (36,778) by Carol from Spain It seems not long ago, we saw dem babies with Barbara Walters for the first time. They were small, inside that crib, dressed and pimped up with their white outfits. Looking at these latest picture from Nick, they grew up so much. I can see Monroe's gonna break some hearts when she grows up, because she is absolutly gorgeous. Roc just seems to be a menace. I can't wait to see them when they grow up.

AIWFCIY (36,777) by Carol from Spain Lovely to see AIWFCIY making it into the charts yet again. A classic that never gets old. All I want for Christmas is a Mariah Carey song. (Saturday 17 November 2012; 23:06)

RibbonB / my morbid toughts post (36,775) by Carol from Spain Sorry for the morbid tought, but it just came to my mind at that moment and I felt like sharing. Sorry lambs. But I do think about it sometimes and I think i'm gonna be sick when it happens. Eventually. (Saturday 17 November 2012; 19:53)

Scary tought (36,760) by Carol from Spain A scary tought came to my mind a few days ago. The day I wake up and I read the news saying "Mariah Carey died". Sorry for the morbid tought, but has anyone tought of that? I can't imagine a world without her. Of course, I know the day will come, but I don't want to. Is that so bad?

Mariah, Tommy and career (36,749) by Carol from Spain Regarding this whole Tommy/Mariah thing: Yes Mariah does not owe her career to Sony, what she owes Sony is the initial chance for a career. If Mariah wasn't in Sony first, she would be with Warner and the story would be the same, because Mariah had (and has) the talent to make it everywhere. No, we can't discard Tommy's influence on her initial years. Now, just because Tommy is responsible for her initial success, that doesn't mean Mariah would have to bow down to him everytime and accept all the bad things he threw at her. I do believe her marriage to Tommy was awful and she had to endure alot of pressure. Her age, at the time, had nothing to do with it, because a 23 years old is old enough to make a conscious marriage. Mariah's career in the last few years has been very calm, but honestly? Her music is better then many out there and she is always a pleasant artist to watch, because we never know what she's up to. (Friday 16 November 2012; 1:18)

Good and bad videos (36,722) by Carol from Spain I think people should stop wishing what Mariah should do and accept what she does. I strongly believe Mariah earned the right to be respected and she shouldn't follow any other artist. If Mariah made videos like Rhianna or anyone else's, it wouldn't be Mariah. Stop wishing what Mariah should do and be grateful for what she does. I'm lucky to live in a time where a genious like her and Michael Jackson live (or lived). (Sunday 11 November 2012; 14:51)

Hear say, but I only saw one arguing (36,685) by Carol from Spain Nicki says that Mariah talked back at her, but the truth is that on the leaked video we only see Nicki slam Mariah. As a fan, I am protecting my idol, but the truth is that I didn't see Mariah missbehave in any way. In 20 years, I never heard anyone say that Mariah talked trash at someone. People talk that she has diva manners, but no one ever said that she curses at people. Nicki is using all this scheme to get some exposure. I believe that, in time, Mariah will talk about this. Whatever happen we will never know, not really. (Wednesday 7 November 2012; 5:30)

Nicki girl needs to pop out the ego ballon she has (36,672) by Carol from Spain Is it just me or does Nicki need a reality check? Does she really believes the things she says? She knows who Mariah Carey is or not? That girl is a trip to be forgotten. Poor person or excuse for one. (Monday 5 November 2012; 7:08)

Only legends can do it (36,661) by Carol from Spain Regarding the album sales, I found this page and I'm glad to see Mimi has several albums featuring on the countdown. http://tsort.info/music/faq_album_sales.htm (Friday 2 November 2012; 22:30)

Re: Chase from USA (36,660) by Carol from Spain Well, I'm sorry if the figures I wrote were wrong, but I think the Glitter album sold over 10 million copies. Whatever the number is, it didn't flop as hard as most people want to make the rest of the world believe. What really flopped was the movie and well... movies and soundtracks aren't the same thing. Regarding the Christmas album, well it didn't sell as much as it should. But for me, it's not that important to sell much, it's more important the quality of the music and no one sings Christmas like Mimi. And it's that time of the year again.

Re: Bob, IAA from USA (36,655) by Carol from Spain Hi Bob. Thanks for your reply. I posted that message, after seing your post also. Being a Mariah Carey fan is hard sometimes, because we get lashed back lots of time. I totally understand where you're coming from with that story of buying Glitter at that time, because I had a similar story back then. Glitter was and still is an amazing album and, unlike haters say, it didn't flop at all, because untill today, it already sold over 10 million copies worldwide. Ultimately, we all need to accept that Mariah should feel the artistic freedom to express however she feels like, because she is the one who'll be stuck to the songs forever. The artist needs to love what he is singing. Mariah will always be different from the rest, because she doesn't do music for the masses, she does it for the selected few.

Triumphant and so on (36,643) by Carol from Spain Still regarding Triumphant, everybody says Mariah features in her own song. Always defended this song and still do, always will. I wonder if people forget that this isin't the first time Mariah looks like she features in her song. But i can't remember this being an issue back then. Does everybody remember Glitter? Well, the song with Mystikal (Funking Jamaica) had the same so called "problem". It looks like Mimi is featuring in her own song. Personally, it's one of her best albums and one of her best collaborations to date (and I'm not a fan of Mystikal). I just don't understand why all the criticism to Triumphant. The song is just number 1 stuff, really. (Thursday 1 November 2012; 20:29)

Critics (36,642) by Carol from Spain Everybody is a critic and that's nice, until a certain point. I honestly don't understand what people want to hear these days anymore. Mariah is called a diva, but is that a bad thing? I don't think so. I believe if there is place for the over sexy look of Lady Gaga and Rhianna (just to name a few), I really think we need the other side of the balance. The sofistication of Mariah Carey is so welcome and, unlike the others, when Mariah looks sexy, she is actually showing something she is: a beautiful woman. People need to get over this thing of not inviting rappers or collaborate with JD, because that's the real Mariah and, if she didn't do it, it would be weird. (Thursday 1 November 2012; 20:23)

Rhianna? Are you kidding me? (36,456) by Carol from Spain Ok, Rhianna is named the most important pop artist in the last 20 years by Billboard. I don't speak for anyone else but me, so are the Billboard editors on drugs or something? Why is Rhianna so important? She didn't change anything in music, she she is just a pawn in the industry that sells sexual music. Shame. People like her exist to the millions. This list doesn't incorporate important artists like Whitney or Michael Jackson, therefore this is all bogus. Ri Ri fans are happy for the wrong reasons. Rhianna is all sex party and scandal. No talent at all. (Monday 8 October 2012; 22:31)

Re: Scott from USA (36,449) by Carol from Spain Well, she is a perfectionist and to be perfect, you must be demanding with you and others. I have no problem in being demanding and she earned that right. I'm not saying she is perfect, I'm saying that she is a person that deserves respect when she discusses music with anyone. If she gives an opinion, even if the opinion is different from yours, you better listen and better take it into consideration. And more, I don't see Mariah calling anyone a bitch. Maybe she said something like "you don't know anything" and maybe Nicki went crazy after that. But if we see things, Nicky doesn't know anything. She could take the chance to be with Mariah and learn something. Mariah didn't deserve anything compared to that. But Nicki is learning the hard way that you don't mess with a legend. A lesson for life. (Sunday 7 October 2012; 23:38)

Re: Desiree from USA (36,448) by Carol from Spain I agree with you that respect is earned and in this case I don't see what Mariah did wrong. In the video we can only see Nicki yelling at Mariah and for me, that's being desrespectful. All for a different opinion? And a person needs to keep a higher ground and composure. Mariah did, Nicki lost it and I hope she gets punished. Mariah earned respect in the industry by being nice to people, I believe. She doesn't need to have a low grade category type of person behaving like crap. (Sunday 7 October 2012; 23:30)

TJ Norway (36,447) by Carol from Spain I remember the episode between Mariah and Madonna. Mariah wasn't desrespectful, she only said she listened to Madonna when she was seven. Mariah merely answered to a comment Madonna made when she said she would rather die then to be Mariah for one day. I hardly call that a feud. I call that an opinion. They never misbehaved in public like that. (Sunday 7 October 2012; 23:26)

If you want, sing the petition (36,430) by Carol from Spain I'm not sure if the webmaster will publish this, but since this whole thing happened I created a petition to take Nicki out of AI. Probably it won't count for nothing but here is the link, incase you want to sign. (Friday 5 October 2012; 22:12)

Still regarding Minaj (36,429) by Carol from Spain In the 20 years of her career, I have never heard of Mariah being disrespectful. Of course, we can say we don't know everything about her life, but if she ever had a blow out like that with anyone, I believe it would have leaked. Now we see this barbie kinda puppet girl behave like that after being a few years in the industry. Who does she think she is? She is no diva and there aren't two divas on the panel. There is only one and her name is Mariah, not Minaj. I was completely shocked with the argument. Even if Mariah called a her a bitch, I believe people need to keep the high ground and behave. I can only judge what I see in the video and I only saw Mimi being a lady and to have manners. Did Nicky threaten her? Yes she di, I believe so. She says there are no cameras that filmed it. Well, maybe not, but if Mimi says it happened, I believe her. In Mariah Iies trust. Nicky is a nobody that no one will remember in a couple of years. (Friday 5 October 2012; 22:03)
