Re: Last post (90,798) (90,802) by We are Lambily from USA First of all stop acting as if Mariah has gotten credit for every video in her career, she said in an interview that, gotta find that interview, Tommy used to steal credits from Mariah as labels do from artist everyday. Remember when it comes to Mariah, I will always believe her more than you guys, her words are 100x stronger than yours since she lived that life. Anyways Mariah can do a whole lot more than what Edward think of her. I'm definitely not a fan of Meryl the way America is, she is alright but Viola Davis killed her on stage in my opinion, they did a movie together, and she stole the whole movie with one scene "according to the movie industry too". Meryl ain't even on top 50 actresses. (Thursday 12 September 2019; 01:10)

Re: Roe Roe at Target (90,799) (90,801) by RibbonB from USA I said he shares pics and videos far less than he used to. Trolls are gonna troll, despite their attempts to protect them, but Mimi just shared the last picture so there is that. What I hate are the slime who leak little videos that don't appear to be from either parent. That happened particularly during the Stella error. I still see some remnant moments since then.

Re: Last post (90,798) (90,800) by Will from Australia Great lost Edward, so right about everything you’ve pointed out. We Are Delusional would be a good fit to describe the way some people try to defend Mariah’s missteps and as they pass shade on her fans who have an opinion that Mariah isn’t actually perfect, so tiring. But don’t argue with fools as people looking from a distance can’t tell who is who. (Thursday 12 September 2019; 00:09)

Re: Roe Roe at Target (90,796) (90,799) by TJ from Norway I think it's great that he doesn't share pictures of the kids (if that's the case). They should be protected from the public scene. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 23:50)

Re: Last post (90,792) (90,798) by Edward from USA Technically Mariah has directed 5 videos by herself, three of which were for her remixes, and she co-directed five others not as the main director. That's 10 videos in total. Out of 60 plus videos shot throughout her career, including remixes and bonuses, how can you say she's directed most of her videos? Before pulling facts out of your behind, you should check your facts. Just because you say it, it doesn't make it true. I don't know if up there where you live directing a video and directing a movie is the same because here in the USA and most parts of the world it is not. So, let's stop with the deluluness. Mariah is an amazing singer/lyricist, there's no denying in that. Some things you either have in you or you don't. It's not only about having a big voice, but also about charisma and presence. Same thing with acting. Mariah is to singing as to Meryl Streep is to acting. Each one of them have something in them that goes beyond the voice or trying hard with an acting coach. Meryl can sing, but she won't ever be Mariah. Mariah can sort of act sometimes, but the closest to Meryl Streep twenty thousand acting coaches would get her would be as good as the quality of acting of Emely's Cellphone on the Devil Wears Prada.

Re: The forgotten albums (90,779) (90,797) by Will from England Personally, I think that this want to do songs she hasn't done for a long time/not done before stemmed from her doing her #1s Vegas show. Ever since then, she has been revisiting her early number 1s and incorporating them into her setlist more and more. She always played it safe with her setlist but since that show ended, she's been more adventurous. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 22:10)

Re: Roe Roe at Target (90,793) (90,796) by RibbonB from USA Listen, we know some of their hate for him is strong and wrong. Whatever, lol. Nick has always in the past taken them shopping for good grades etc. So Target and Toys R us used to be their spot. I just wish Nick shared more family videos. He probably stopped due to petty hateful comments of some numb nuts. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 21:54)

"Babydoll" (ad libs) (90,795) by Billy from Greece So impressive looking into the various parts of her songs separately. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 21:08)

"Outside" (backing vocals) (90,794) by Billy from Greece This is gorgeous. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 21:05)

Re: Roe Roe at Target (90,790) (90,793) by Licia from USA That was the cutest. I hate how the lambs turned Nick's funny comment into something so ugly and negative. They must not know that Mariah liked his comment. So she didn't have any issue with what he said. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 17:39)

Re: Last post (90,791) (90,792) by We are Lambily from USA Glitter the soundtrack didn't need a justice and in my eyes and many other lambs we also included the movie in that movement. The album sold 2 millions and gave her the best selling single of that year. Mariah is an amazing director and her music videos have shown that, she directed most of them as she said, but we know she used to give away credit way too easy before. I need Mariah to really get an acting coach and get out and get more roles, try new things. Our baby is a multi-talented women who can do it all, practice makes perfect and she just needs more roles. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 17:19)

Last post (90,791) by Edward from USA I don't hold Glitter against Mariah, I'm actually happy Glitter happened because I don't think we would've gotten Glitter, the soundtrack, had she not jumped on making the movie. But trying to justify this movie blaming every little thing or person for how bad it was or what it could've been, is something I won't ever do. I like Mariah on Precious. She was decent in Tennessee and Wise Girls. By the end of the '90's Mariah had started believing her own hype, and what happened with Glitter brought some of that early humbleness she used to have back in her, then she worked hard and we got "Charmbracelet", which was kind of hated then, but now highly appreciated considering Mariah doesn't write poetic lyrics like that anymore, and then we had "The Emancipation Of Mimi". Things happened for a reason, at the end of the day, a horrible movie and a great soundtrack ended up saving her life. Mariah was working like a mule, abusing substances and not taking care of herself, and like any human being, she crashed. Everything happened the way it was supposed to. The movie keep being bad just as the soundtrack keep being great. We even got justice for it Glitter, the soundtrack, but we won't ever see a "#Justice4GlitterTheMovie" on twitter, and there's a clear reason for that. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 14:34)

Roe Roe at Target (90,790) by RibbonB from USA So cute. Priceless. Mimi might have been mortified though. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 13:52)

Re: It's not just Glitter (90,785) (90,789) by Licia from USA I'm not against her acting (I actually liked her in Wisegirls). There's room for her to get better with acting if she's really serious about it. I just want her to choose roles that stray away from the diva persona and the typical "Mariah" role. I feel like she can do more than playing herself (diva or singer). I want her to get out of her comfort zone. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 12:59)

Glitter (90,788) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) It is so much that can be said as to why that era did not work. But at this point as fans we should be grateful for the fact that Mariah survived such a dark time in her life which I am sure was not easy doing so in the spotlight. Of course as fans we would like for Mariah to be successful with everything that she does but in reality she is human just like the rest of us, so it is not possible. Was Glitter a classic movie in my honest opinion? No but I will not hold it against Mariah because I am not really into Mariah for acting I enjoy Mariah as the singer-songwriter/producer. But I will not knock her for wanting to try other aspects of entertainment if it makes her heart full. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 12:32)

Re: It's not just Glitter (90,785) (90,787) by TJ from Norway I totally agree with you. In the early 90's she said that she wouldn't do acting, and she should have stuck with that. I was really embarrassed when I watched Glitter at the cinema. It was just bad. As the crazy fan I used to be, I still bought the DVD. Love the album, can't stand the movie. She's not an actress, she's a singer (producer, etc.). It's like she has no expressions in her face, and can't use her voice in movies. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 12:26)

Re: Defending Glitter (90,783) (90,786) by MusicfanJ from Germany "Putting Crapfinity at the end of a collection of her #1's was the worst decision ever. I didn't buy the album because of that." That was exactly the reason why I didn't buy the cd too. But I'm really happy with "The Ones" [sic] from 99 and "The Greatest Hits". Her next compilation should be with some rare songs, remixes and duets like many of you mentioned. It would be just great and something worth the money. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 10:39)

Re: It's not just Glitter (90,780) (90,785) by Tijl from Belgium Nine movies? Which ones? I absolutely adore Mariah as a singer and songwriter but she should stay away from acting. In most cases she merely played a version of herself with "Wisegirls" being the most significant role compared to the cameos in "SP2", "Zohan" and "Girls Trip". Her part in "Precious" was minor and overrated. I am not a hater but a realist. Where is Andrew when you need him? (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 10:21)

Re: Brad Pitt should've been the male lead in Glitter (90,764) (90,784) by TJ from Norway I guess he wouldn't have done it if he was asked. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 07:09)

Defending Glitter (90,783) by Edward from USA Defending "Glitter" is like Defending "Crapfinity". I remember those lambs who swore the song was pure genius, a masterpiece, a diamond in the rough. I don't remember if they said it was a slow burner, but they probably said that too. At least "Glitter", the soundtrack, can be listened to and enjoyed without thinking about the movie. Putting "Crapfinity" at the end of a collection of her #1's was the worst decision ever. I didn't buy the album because of that. I created my own #1's album, in which "Crapfinity" was a no show, and where I just added "We Belong Together", "Don't Forget About Us", and "Touch My Body" to the original plus the songs that were released on the European version: "Without You" and "Do You Know Where You're Going To". Mariah is a musical genius, emphasis on musical. Writing a song is nothing like writing the script for a movie. She should keep her hands off directing or producing any movie, "A Christmas Melody" showed she's bad at directing, and her grown up version of "Regina George" with a camera special soft focus for her to look like an angel was ridiculous. If it had been for Mariah, she would've played the social worker on "Precious" with the outfit she wore on "Diva's Live". Thank God she wasn't the director or producer or anything other than an actress on Precious. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 04:12)

Merry Christmas (90,782) by Bobby A from United States I have really high hopes for the Merry Christmas re-release this year. AIWFCIY is going to make it to #1 this year. An announcement should be coming in October. (Wednesday 11 September 2019; 02:48)

Re: Let’s all watch it again to piss a goatee off (90,774) (90,781) by Edward from USA Licia, you couldn't have said it better. The Glitter soundtrack is awesome, the movie is terrible. It's not about the actors, promotions or shit else. The script and production were horrendous, and Mariah was playing a Mary Poppins version of herself. I saw it here in NY, there were a few cats in attendance, and my friend looked at me and told me: "You know this movie sucks, right?" A movie can be a commercial flop and still be great. In this case it was both. No matter how much "The United Lambs of Lala Land" like it or the excuses they make for it being so bad, Glitter is still a bad movie. (Tuesday 10 September 2019; 20:04)

Re: It's not just Glitter (90,772) (90,780) by We are Lambily from USA "Mariah is not a very good actress, not just in Glitter." I would like to see you do better, Her acting is fine but not many people can act amazingly without a tailor fit character/script made. But having opinions are okay but the facts will always matter to me more. Mariah has starred in 9 movies in some form and those movies together have generated almost a billion dollars soon and that will forever be linked to her. So who is laughing now exactly? Lol our queen is unbothered and always stays winning. Such a fighter and true inspiration. (Tuesday 10 September 2019; 19:49)

The forgotten albums (90,779) by Jeff from USA I'm so glad to see that MC is singing songs that she's either never played live or rarely does. Some of the songs on the albums that were sales disappointments have some awesome songs. I'm looking at you, CB/Memoirs/MIAM. I know there needs to be a balance during concerts between the hits and "album cuts", but I think MC doesn't realize that a lot of us would love to hear some of the "for the lambs" songs. Underneath the Stars, Smooth Invitation [sic], Yours, Cry, Ribbon, etc. I will never tire of My All, but maybe throw in The Roof too. What do y'all think? (Tuesday 10 September 2019; 19:18)

Re: It's not just Glitter (90,777) (90,778) by The Real Deal from USA If "Glitter" was presented as a made for TV movie or an MTV Original Movie, it would've fared fine and probably would've recieved a mixed review rating. (Tuesday 10 September 2019; 17:54)
