Re: CB tour (94,023) (94,024) by Andrew from the United Kingdom
Ha, I did try going to the Emancipation signing in London but I had to give up when the ambulance arrived and took me to hospital. I did stand outside her hotel at 2am waiting for her to come back, and when the car came, she woke up and came over to speak to the ten of us. I always regretted missing that signing, though. Although I could have given her meningitis and she might have died. Probably for the best, eh. (And these young queens who've followed Mariah since MIAM tell me they're the real lambs.)

Anyway, Eric, I think your story is *way* better than seeing Mariah at a distance on stage 25 years ago for an hour and a half. Much, much better.

I think going to a record signing in Amsterdam, seeing her face to face and touching her, tops both your experiences.

I wanted to go on that show, but I was a poor student at the time. I guess you had the time of your life.

Re: CB tour (94,020) (94,021) by Andrew from the United Kingdom
Quite certain that going to a concert in 1995 isn't the greatest thing that could ever happen. Your remembering one and a half hours of Mariah as a blip on stage 25 years ago, or my being ten meters away from her with looking at me in the eye, waving to me and saying "I love you, too." If I could experience either one of them right now, it would be the second one. And I think you would as well. And you know it.

Re: CB tour (94,013) (94,020) by Bill from the UK
Hmmm not sure about that. Daydream era vs CB era. Were you not just saying that whole album needs to be forgotten and buried in the past? You got one song and a finger wag, I got prime Mariah all night long in what is arguably the best concert she ever gave so. Nope.

Re: Ariana Grande butterfly tattoos (94,007) (94,019) by Musti from UK
"Barbra Streisand has an album called Butterfly from many years ago, way before Mariah, although she didn't go with the butterfly symbol after that like Mariah did."

I would've been surprised if Barbra got a tattoo of a fly on her body as that album is called ButterFly, literally a fly sitting on butter.

Did you know butterflies were associated with Dolly Parton as well. She has an album Love Is Like A Butterfly and has used butterfly symbols especially with Dollywood for years?

I personally feel a butterfly can mean differently to each although the same. We all go through changes.

Re: Ariana Grande butterfly tattoos (94,002) (94,017) by Dennis from Miami, FL
Probably because all the cool mascots are already taken. And Mariah already has not just a butterfly but a lamb as well. Bees - taken, swifts - taken, (katy)kats - not available, little monsters - taken.

She is an ex-employee, huh? Wow, I wonder why.

Article: What celebrity visitors were really like (94,014) by Dennis from Miami, FL
Couldn't she give anything specific? Just "awful", "being a diva"? No puppies requested? Another thing, I really hoped I would never see Mariah and Will Ferrell mentioned in the same article again. I'm happy Mariah didn't starred in his cheesy movie, though I must have been a publicity stunt.

Re: CB tour (94,012) (94,013) by Andrew from the United Kingdom
On March 19 2003 I went to see Mariah Carey film at The Graham Norton Show. When she sang Through The Rain at the end, advantaged by my being seated in front of the stage section I jumped up first and shouted "I love you, Mariah." She turned to me, did her little finger wiggle wave and said "I love you, too."

So *my* story beats *your* story and I'm gonna bring it up every time you bring yours up.

I went to the Daydream Tour in London, England on June 23rd 1996. Life changing.

I went to the Charmbracelet tour in Zürich, Switzerland on October 22nd 2003. What a concert.

Re: Ariana Grande butterfly tattoos (94,007) (94,010) by Andrew from the United Kingdom
I'm not sure that is quite right. I think Ariana getting a butterfly tattoo is fine. I think if she uses it in any regard as a symbol of her own person or her career then that is bad form. It would absolutely be an intentional sleight and I would expect Mariah to get another meme on.

Re: Ranked album covers/photography (94,004) (94,009) by Andrew from the United Kingdom
Clearly photoshopped album covers:
#1's (but 2 airbrushed legs)
Rainbow (Barbie)
Glitter ("shouldn't overpower the airbrush")
Greatest Hits (of the delete pixel key)
The Emancipation of MyImage
Me. I am Mariah. The Photo-shopped Cartoon.
Caution (Cartoon)

There is no "accusation". If I look at a picture of the sky, I do not "accuse" someone of making it blue. It *is* blue. Somethings just *are* and no amount of suggestion or untruths stops that from being. It is what it is.

Precious (94,008) by RibbonB from USA
Last night HBO aired Precious. It's a great movie, but a hard story to watch, so I usually avoid watching it since seeing it in theaters when it was released. It is definitely memorable and Mariah's performance is still one of the standouts. Gabby and Monique played bleak characters, excellently.

Re: Ariana Grande butterfly tattoos (94,002) (94,007) by Scott from USA
I think while we all know a butterfly is synonymous with Mariah and is part of her trademark, it shouldn't mean that a butterfly tattoo or a like for butterflies is off limits for anyone else. Don't think she can claim a butterfly as her own.

That said, we all know Ariana is a big fan, so who knows, maybe it is related, maybe not.

Barbra Streisand has an album called Butterfly from many years ago, way before Mariah, although she didn't go with the butterfly symbol after that like Mariah did.

Re: Ranked album covers/photography (93,981) (94,004) by B from USA
I like the Music Box cover. I hate that Mariah was and is accused of photoshopping the MIAM album cover (artwork). The photoshoot took place in 2013 when she was in amazing shape.

#1 To Infinity (94,003) by B from USA
Five years ago today, Mariah began her #1 To Infinity residency at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Did you attend the #1 To Infinity residency?

Ariana Grande butterfly tattoos (94,002) by Kaj Mandalia from UK
Hi fellow lambs. Hope [you're] all safe and well during these very uncertain times. I haven't been on here for a while but love and respect all of you and for this one site dedicated to our Mariah which I've been visiting for about 20 years.

I don't know if anyone has picked this up and I totally love how Mariah and Ariana are OK with each other but the butterfly tattoos in particular are making me feel awkward. Only because butterfly is synonymous with Mariah like Bees are to Beyonce. Unsure why Ariana is jumping on this bandwagon and all her fan comments are like "queen butterfly". I had to comment on one of her post saying "aww honouring our Mariah", nothing negative but butterfly is for our Mariah. Any thoughts?

PS Still peace and love for Ariana and I may have missed the memo for her showcasing them so apologies in advance.

Open Arms is beautiful. I gasped when I saw it on the record store shelf all those years ago. Gasped.

Hahaha. I never understood why they made the two [three]different covers.
