Mariah Carey: Official Topic

[Ray]

Actually Mariah fans keep attacking our fanbase because they're bitter and jealous that Celine's albums and concerts tickets are selling better than Mariah's.

 

That doesn't make it right for Celine's fans to be nasty about Mariah.

 

Let's think for ourselves and just enjoy the music. Sales is not what matters in life. Enjoying music and respecting other people who enjoy music (even if it's not your taste) that's what life should be really about.

[PriscillaBarragan]

... OF COURSE I stated MY opinion and I did it in a polite way. You can love the album all you want. Don't act as if I said anything bad about those who actually like the album. And I never compared Mariah to Celine...

No I know, that last paragraph wasn't aimed at you. I apologize if it came off that way.

[seantrainor]

YOU think the album is not good. You are entitled to your opinion and I respect that, I really do. Several of us here love the album and there is nothing wrong with that.

 

But seriously guys? Some of you just come in here and boast about how Celine does so much better than Mariah. Or how Mariah is a "flop" or whatever else you can come up with. It's not cute. Not everything has to be a competition and being a fan of both women is hard enough as it is. All I'm asking is to tone down the negativity. You're welcome to have opinions on the music but there's a difference between not liking something and being a full blown hater. /end rant

 

THIS!! So damn true! I love Mariah and Celine, and it's hard being a fan of both, absolutely. Now, The Elusive Chanteuse isn't doing well, yes I agree, but that's due to lack of promotion. The album itself is amazing and incredible. At least it's doing better than J. Lo's AKA. I do like J. Lo as well but my point is that Mariah needs to promote this album. More importantly, she needs to TOUR. Big time, it's about damn time she got back on the road. Dem babies are old enough now that they can go with her or they can stay with Nick, it's really up to them. I think they should go with MC because if she performed Supernatural on tour it'd be cute to bring them out on stage for that song. Anyway, I love You Don't Know What to Do and I'm glad it's the new single, because I feel like this is the single that will really take off on radio and such. I can't wait for the no rap version too because it'll do well on pop/Adult Contemporary radio. And I truly think that a tour for MC will bring her back into the spotlight quickly. Btw, whoever said that Mariah's fans are jealous because Celine's show is doing better is an idiot because Mariah hasn't even TOURED since the Angel's Advocate tour. So that comment made completely no sense. She's had shows here and there but that's it. Anyway, rant over. Oh and Priscilla I agree, I also think that this is the best album since Emancipation.

I feel like she's gone off the face of the eath since the album dropped! She did a few interviews before it came out but now nothing I would LOVE to see her tour! I know she doesn't like it but it would be amazing! There was supposed to be a tour but I'm not sure what happened to those plans.

Haha glad you agree!

[Prima_Donna1]

Yea i like MIAMTEC a lot. I bought the album on Tuesday and i think its better than Charmbracelet, and 10 x better than Emancipation..

 

The shocking thing is I like this whole entire album. There isnt a song i do not like off the album. It isnt Daydream and Music box best to me but almost there.

 

Its a shame she is not promoting it tho.

according to Rap-up.com "Mariah is moving forward with plans to shoot a video for her next single, the J.D.-produced “You Don’t Know What to Do” featuring Wale."

Just curious, why are her fans called lambs?

[PriscillaBarragan]

Just curious, why are her fans called lambs?

She started calling fans "lambs" as a term of endearment in the late 90's I believe? (I could be wrong, I'm not sure when she started it). It's kind of how Katy Perry has "katycats" or Beyonce has "Beyhive" etc.

I'm not even 100% sure why she chose the word "lamb" though. I know she used to call her close friends/family lambs then she started calling fans lambs because she see's them as ~family~.

I think it has more to do with because she's pretty spiritual and there's the whole shepherd/lamb thing going on in the bible?? But I'm not sure.

Also Jermaine Dupri is no longer Mariah's manager. She reportedly hired Kevin who manages Jay Z and Ludacris.

since now Celine has canceled her shows / tour MC might perform in Taipei Arena instead!

[PriscillaBarragan]

 

Mariah was out with the babies earlier! I think it's Disneyworld???? But I can't tell.

 

Anyway, I hope she's doing well with all the recent news that's been surrounding her as of late.

...and apparently Nick 'i-f/!c!<D-Karthrashian' Cannon moved out coz he's worried about her mental state . i knew this man was up to something when he went on Big Boy's radio show and had a word vomit saying "I f***kD the s!-!!T outta her" about their wedding night... hideous &*%$%^#$@#%&*** !!!

yeah him and Kim dated before I think in like 2006?? there was an interview where he talked about all the women he's slept with and it was so disgusting because if you're marred, why would you talk about that so that everyone can hear you?

She doesn't ever talk about things like that so when Nick said that I was like "oh...ok "

I'm so sad for her but because she doesn't deserve any of this. She's usually very private anout her personal life so when he went and said that they were having marriage troubles to the press, and stuff it was really messed up.

 

His dad also opened his mouth too on his FaceBook page about a week or so ago when it was said Mariah would like Nick to sign some papers so he can't talk about their marriage so publicly or something. All of the posts are now deleted but some lambs got the screencaps and Nick's dad was horrible.

This is what some of the posts said:

"Here a thing, If the wife put on 200 pounds and the husband like a nice slim wife, should that man do?"

"Here a thing to talk about, if the wife love making love and the man can't stand making love to her, what should that women do?"

"Here something, if the mother wants the children to sleep in the bed every night with her and the husband, and the husband does not want this or like this, what should the husband do?"

"Here a thing, if the wife lies about money and does not want a joint account, then what should a man do?"

[PriscillaBarragan]

On a more postive note, I'm really excited about the tour! She's been doing song challenges on Twitter and letting the fans get invovled with the setlist on which songs they would prefer! So far she's tweeted:

Mariah was also listed as the most succesful pop star according to Time magazines results!

The top ten results were:

 

10.) Boys II Men

9.) Katy Perry

8.) Michael Jackson

7.) Whitney Houston

6.) Janet Jackson

5.) Madonna

4.) The Beatles

3.) Usher

2.) RIhanna

1.) Mariah

 

Here is what the website said:

 

The U.S. publication has revealed the findings of their "Ultimate Pop Stardom" study. The mag went through every song that's been in the Billboard Hot 100 since 1960 to see which acts had "the biggest years and longest careers" and awarded points based on a tune's rank in the Top 10. (Collaborations were included in the mix too.) This stats-based approach might not satisfy everyone's criteria for what constitutes pop stardom, but... um, Time went with this format anyway? Here are the illustrious acts that reached the Top 10 of Time's Ultimate Pop Stardom rankings.

• 
  1: Mariah Carey
   
   
  The "Elusive Chanteuse" wasn't too hard to find in Time's "Ultimate Pop Stardom" rankings. Mariah Carey reigns in the #1 spot thanks to her unmatched (by Time's data) hit-making prowess. The mega-selling diva earned her place in that rarefied air thanks to a legendary run of hit singles in the '90s, plus varying amounts of chart glory in the following decade. (2005 was the era of The Emancipation of Mimi, which resulted in a number of enthusiastically received hits.) According to Time's findings, Mariah Carey represents the peak of "Ultimate Pop Stardom."

  
  

They put up the results of all the other artists here! Celine ranks in here as well!

I've always loved the fact that mariah has always been private. Know she said just before she started seeing nick that she could count the number of men she'd slept with on one hand. I love that.

yeah she said that... and thats coz (especially the first time she had to mention it) Eminem was goin around sayin that he slept with her. she said that she could count the number of men she'd slept with on one hand and also "but he ain't on the hand"!!! she said that without being tacky & not mentioning any names!! there's huge a difference between how Mariah & Nick responded to the question that was asked. the world knows Mariah Carey and her fans know she's had relationships with Tommy, Derek Jeter & Louis Miguel. no one's pretending here; no one's tryin to make her out to be a perfect saint or anything (well... who is perfect in this world). but i have yet to hear Mariah brag on a TV show that "i f**kd the $!-!iT outta so & so i was with at the time"!!! what Nick did was STUPID!!!!

[chocolatechip15]

I wish the media would leave Mariah alone. The last thing she needs right now is crazy paparazzi harassing her.

[Bell]

You know people, I was kind of worried and shocked when I first heard of the split. I even told my mother about it but here's what she said: 'If he wants to leave, let him leave. Men come and go. She's got children now and that's all that matters'. So now I feel better. I hope Mariah's feeling better, too. I hope she has some true friends to be there for her now and help her make it through the hard times. I wish her luck!

[MistaChanel]

When will they announce concerts in Europe!?!?!?!?!?!?!

[celinefanonline]

can't wait that she's coming to Australia especially Melbourne!!!!

She's lost it!

It's sad....

[MistaChanel]

I really like the setlist.... But her performance was horrible... I think she hasn't trained her voice for a long time and then, there is also the problem with her divorce etc. ... I hope that she will improve, or at least have some nice pre-recorded tracks...
