[AllTheWay9108]

I can't believe Leona's #1 on the Hot 100 with "Bleeding Love" :clap:

 

Although I'm sad that TMB lost some airplay this week, I'm happy that she can do wonders cos she's Mariah As for Mad's...no comments from my side

 

And OMFG!! I am so liking That Chick Thanks, Nik

 

TMB has not lost any airplay infact it has experienced its best week. The audience is now approaching 114 million and it has risen more than 14 million this week. This is a great week in airplay

[Black Kitten]

[AllTheWay9108]

Airplay of TMB is now 115.306 Million

NO signs of slowing down at all, infact it might catch up on usher to get the #2 spot on the airplay charts

right now its #3

Why nobody says nothing about ''Love Story''? For me it's the worst song we have heard so far but most of the fans says it's the best.

Thanks for the link, hmm no I don't like it at all, not liking the sound of this album so far

[Ray]

I looooooooooooooooooove Love Story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

But I like all songs so far: Touch my body (even the remixes; especially the one with The Dream), Migrate, I'm that chick, Love Story. This album is going to be soooooooooo GREAT!

 

I can't believe there are people here who are being jealous of Mariah's succes. Céline is such a succesful artist. Why not respect Mariah? I agree with dhena: wish them both well!

[Black Kitten]

Mariah Hangs Up on the BBC!

Filed under: Anglophilia > Mariah Carey

Mimi, doing her best Madonna "I'm a Brit" impression, was on Radio One on Sunday….and she got her knickers in a bunch when the radio host inadvertently said she's only sold 80 million records. Only!

 

She countered the number is closer to 160 million and then the call was mysteriously DROPPED.

 

Diva!

OMG I missed today's chart show, and I saw some negativity towards her on the UK charts forum I'm a member of. Thanks for the link. She might really have taken it as an insult!!

 

And it serves Reggie right. The UK chart show is not what it used to be with JK & Joel. They always had their facts clear. Reggie and Fearne talk about positions and stuff about artists without knowing the chart data, which is terrible.

 

And they don't seem to take their job seriously. Take for instance when "Taking Chances" by Celine debuted at number 40. They did not play the whole song and all they did was ridiculize her for talking too much on her X Factor presentation.

The UK media is very unprofessional, do they a problem with american artists?

except madonna they seem to trash everything...even madonna wasnt spared during the coadf era

 

and whats up with radio hosts in the UK, why are they so rude and cocky

especially this prick on radio1...

 

Anyway she clearly didnt hang up on him, she is the same woman who has tolerated a lot more...worse radio interviews before this, she isnt the type to hang up.

I agree. Hmmm maybe it all was set up. Who knows, but the situation was very bizarre.

[Nikosn17]

UK media always hates her. I don't know why. I'm not sure if she hung up the phone but I hope she did. She should show them how they have the thread her.

 

 

By the way I'm sad the next week I won't be able to come in the forum cause I'm gonna be in Rusia for one week. I'll be back in April 6. I'm gonna miss this place.

Mariah Carey's radio tantrum

Mar 31 2008

 

(BANG) -Mariah Carey hung up during a radio interview following a dispute over her record sales.

 

The 'Touch My Body' singer appeared to hastily end the conversation yesterday (30.03.08), when BBC Radio 1 DJ Reggie Yates suggested she had only sold 80 million albums worldwide.

 

Just before the phone went dead, Mariah said: "Is that the right quote? I don't know. I have to ask someone I don't know if that is accurate."

 

Reggie said: "I think she took that as an insult. That is how the conversation ended with me and Mariah! She took 80 million albums as an insult. She is mad cool."

 

Mariah has sold around 165 million records worldwide, and is the second-bestselling female artist of all time behind Celine Dion.

 

The interview had started well, with Mariah laughing and joking and speaking in a British accent.

 

She happily talked about her favourite movies, her new single 'Touch My Body ' and her upcoming album 'E=MC2'.

 

Earlier this month, Mariah revealed she loves being called a diva because it means she is successful, but insists isn't a demanding person.

 

The 'Hero' singer said: " The actual definition is 'a talented female singer.' Definition two is 'a difficult woman who is successful,' I believe. So I take it as a compliment.

 

I guess I am a diva in many ways! When it comes to certain things, yes, I can be difficult and a little bit rigid about what I want. Am I demanding? I don't think I'm demanding enough." © BANG Media International

"Am I demanding? I don't think I'm demanding enough." That's my quote of the week.

MWUAHAHAHHAHAH MUWAHHAHAHA @ the article MUWHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH :D :D :D!!!!

Yahoo! Music has the following article about Mariah, Janet and Madonna:

 

Janet, Mariah And Madonna Fight For The Diva Crown

by Billy Johnson, Jr. in Hip-Hop Media Training

Well, what do you know? I looked up Madonna's new single "4 Minutes" on a competing site that sells MP3s and it said, "Customers who bought this song also bought this album" and it pointed to Janet's Discipline. Underneath Discipline, it read, "Customers who bought this album also bought this item" and--you guessed it--Mariah's "Touch My Body" was at the top of the list.

 

Madonna, Janet and Mariah are such huge pop divas that it makes sense that there would be some overlap among their fanbases even though each offers something quite different. It is interesting that all are returning to the market with new records.

 

Janet's Discipline debuted at No. 1 following its February 26 release. Mariah's E=MC² is due out on April 15 and Madonna's Hard Candy hits the shelves on April 29.

 

Since all are releasing new albums I'd like to call for a special three-way session of MTV's Celebrity Deathmatch. I'd love to see claymations of the music icons duking it out, America's Best Dance Crew style--Jabba Wockeez masks and all--to see who is the most beloved American Idol.

 

However, since I can't wait for the fantasy battle to materialize and I lack the technical ingenuity to pull a knockoff version, I'll instead resort to my familiar blog format.

 

In gauging who is the Most Significant Pop Diva, I found it only fair to judge them in few areas--singing ability, dancing, acting and lifetime achievement.

 

Best Singer: Mariah, can you please come to the stage to receive your award? There wasn't a need to handout ballots for this category. It was unfair to even pit Madonna and Janet against Mariah. Even though Mariah's recent choppy, hoarse performance on The Hills pre-show gave the delusional Heidi Montag a vote of confidence that she might have marginal singing talent, Mariah has never been accused of being anything less than a great vocalist. Well done, MC.

 

Best Dancer: Clearly, Mariah could be omitted from this category and that's not to say that she does not have rhythm; dancing just isn't her focus. Ten years ago, I would have given this honor to Janet without discussion based on her choreography in her "Control," "Rhythm Nation" and "Pleasure Principle" videos. During the late '80s and early '90s, Janet set the curve for dance and created the formula used by followers Britney, Ciara and the late Aaliyah. But the release of Janet's All For You album revealed that she reached a benchmark with "Rhythm Nation" and would no longer attempt to set trends.

 

All of her choreography displayed since appears to be rehashed routines. I must sadly admit that the Discipline videos "Feeback" and "Rock With U" have confirmed for me that Janet is content. And with that, I do strongly consider giving the honor to Madonna, who turns 50 this August, and continues to push it to the limit with every record. But I can't.

 

Janet's contribution to dance is too great. But as I hand Janet over this award, I pull her in closely for the congratulatory hug and whisper into her ear:

 

"Janet, you know you been slacking. Quit being scared. Let Ciara sponsor you at You Got Served camp and show everyone that you can do more than that same old two-step, shoulder pop that you did on Diff'rent Strokes 24 years ago.

 

Best Triple Threat: Janet, Mariah, and Madonna, have proven that they can sing, dance, and act to varying levels. But the true question here is: who is the best actress? Clearly, Janet has the most credits, including a number of television series (Good Times, Diff'rent Strokes, Fame) and movies (Poetic Justice, Nutty Professor, Why Did I Get Married). Still, Janet's shockingly unconvincing performances as the foul-mouthed, South Central homegirl in Poetic Justice and the "oops I had a wardrobe malfunction" victim of Super Bowl XXXVIII disqualify her from this category. The same goes for Madonna's portrayal of Evita in the biopic. The Nice Try honorable mention goes to Mariah for playing a teenager in that movie that starts with a G and ended with a flop. Let's just say that the winner of the Best Triple Threat honor is not here to receive her award tonight. This category has been nixed.

 

Lifetime Achievement Award: Drum roll please, though this should not come as a surprise. You must acknowledge this woman for having minimal vocal talent, yet managing to become one of the most significant voices in pop music. She has sold more than 275 million records worldwide which makes her the top selling female artist of all time.

 

Despite her music's consumption with sex and her public romps with everyone from Sean Penn to Vanilla Ice to Dennis Rodman to Warren Beatty, she still miraculously used her voice to speak out against the war and to write children's books.

 

Her music reflects that of a chameleon as she reinvents her sound with each record, always preferring to be cutting edge as opposed to safe.

 

Earlier this month, she was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. Ironically, during the same time, GQ magazine ranked her husband No. 1 on its list of the 25 Most Whipped Men On The Planet. She is so powerful, I'm sure that Guy doesn't care if the fellas call him Mr. Madonna.

 

Madonna Louise Ciccone, from Bay City, Michigan, will you please come up on this stage and receive Hip Hop Media Training's Most Significant Pop Diva award?

 

Now, I have to make myself a Madonna mixtape with "Music," "Justify My Love," "Material Girl"... I'd better stop here before I further incriminate myself.

thanks LuisMa for the article! i enjoyed it! i love them.

[Prince Whiskers]

Holy Mimi will top both album and single charts but guess where she will be in the Forbes Rich List next year. BELOW Vegas queen and world tour diva Celine Dion.

 

BTW, all those rappers' names in the tracklist turn me off. Ugh.

[Céline's Blues]

Bye Bye has leaked.

 

Discuss here, it's a ballad.

 

I love her voice! She's just incredibile! She'll sell easily 5 million in the States.
