About Johnny from Ireland: Big fan since 98

So what (101,863) by Johnny from Ireland Guys, get a grip, she's alive and well, clearly. The voice might not be there but she's out and about. I hope to God she's not reading these messages. Who needs fans when she has so many critics? Be thankful for the legacy if nothing else. (Saturday 17 December 2022; 02:02)

Let's get back to being fans (96,312) by Johnny from Ireland Hi all. Reading a lot of comments here lately and I rarely get involved in debates. That said, I have to offer my opinion here. I've been a Mariah fan for a long time and decline to refer to myself as a lamb (no disrespect). We're all here for the love of Mariah's music and as a fan, I wish only the best for her. We're living in a world where such judgement and criticism is so freely distributed and we're in a time where everyone feels the need to voice their opinion whether it's based on fact, consequence or general thought. Who are we to judge anyone's story when we weren't there? My truth or yours is different in the eyes of those around us. I doubt any of us were in or around Mariah's presence during those moments articulated in her memoir. Those moments made her who she is today and I am pretty sure she acknowledges her own role in every scenario and situation. And indeed is filled with regret as most people are with past situations. The memoir was not supposed to be a confession. Let those mentioned in the book speak if they need to. Why get caught up in theorizing things we can't understand when we weren't there? I do feel sorry that she had to go through the race trauma but everyone has their own identity struggles in life. Hers was race what's ours? Life's too short to focus on other people's stories. Enjoy the music guys and Mariah as a person even though we don't know her really but I certainly enjoy her witty and creative personality. Peace out peeps. (Saturday 17 October 2020; 00:38)

Mariah for Graham Norton show (79,423) by Johnny from Ireland Hi guys. I really think we need to see MC on Graham Norton. I'm not sure this has happened yet on his BBC show. Can someone get her people to sort this. She'd be a welcome addition and I'd love to see her interact with the other guests. Now is the time. (Monday 13 November 2017; 21:04)

Lambs (39,693) by Johnny from Ireland Guys, it annoys me to think that you need to be a lamb to be considered a fan. I'm not a lamb but certainly a fan. I cannot wait for Mariah to get back in business and I agree that we need to see her work the promotion circuit. Best of luck MC. (Saturday 9 November 2013; 5:03)
