We need a music video (114,909) by D from United States
Hard pass on Brett Ratner.

If we're talking high-budget, I'm thinking Zack Snyder, who directed Sucker Punch. That movie was unsettling too, and the overall aesthetic was grey, but it was visually beautiful.

The problem is that, in a music video, your face and body movements carry a lot of the visuals, and MC looks like she can't move around a whole lot these days. They'd either have to lean into that or bring in other actors to carry the video.

Mariah Carey's "Obsessed" hits 1 billion Spotify streams (114,908) by jaker20 from US
I seriously think Angels Advocate would have been Mariah's streaming monster if she decides to release it.

What about a Brett Ratner video to launch MC17? He made sure his videos for MC had a movie like quality to them. I think MC needs at least one longform video for MC17's launch directed by Brett.

I actually did like those videos. I think they were better than the one for "Play This Song". I liked the Joseph Khan one, but I agree that we don't need another one from him.

Caution era music videos were low budget but decent. She should get that director Sarah McColgan back, as she brought something different out from her. Joseph Kahn can take a long vacation though.

I didn't mean literally that someone else is responsible for your happiness. I meant being a good husband, being supportive, being there for her, and treating her well. Basically, not being a narcissist. But, to be fair, Nick probably didn't even realize he was one himself at the time.

We need a music video (114,903) by Edward from USA
You can't put your happiness in someone else's hands. That's a huge burden to put on another person. You should bring your own happiness into a relationship, and the idea is for both people to be happy together, not for one person to be responsible for the other's happiness.

It was pretty obvious that Nick couldn't handle the pressure of being Mr. Carey. I used to like Nick, and I stopped liking him not because of what happened between him and Mariah, but because of everything that came afterward. At least he was diagnosed as a narcissist, which explains a lot about him and the whole circus surrounding him and his failed attempt at building a tribe.

I don't think Nick and Mariah are spending holidays together. They don't post family holiday gatherings anymore cooking greens. I believe "I Won't Allow It" tells the story of the breakdown of their once cordial friendship for the twins. MC will have a lot to say on MC17 that wasn't talked about on MC16. Anyway, I am hoping for a Babyface and Mike Will Made It collaboration again on MC17. I feel MC17 is going to remind us in some way why we became a Mariah Carey fan.

I wonder if Nick Cannon and Mariah are still friends. He does seem narcissistic but narcissists are people too. I'm just wondering because Nick directed cute music videos for her. Man, Nick really let me down. I thought he was going to make Mariah happy. What a disappointment.

I'm just craving a really good music video from her. It would be great if someone making a Christmas movie could make a music video to one of Mariah's songs using the cast of the movie and footage from the movie. Like Almost Home. Just so we can get some kind of decent cinematography.

Luxury brands ad campaigns are always like that (114,900) by Bobby A from United States
I was thinking today MC really enjoys being in front of the camera these days when she doesn't have to sing. I say let her have her fun after so many years when she couldn't because of being held up at Sing Sing. I wonder will she show up at one of her pop up holiday bars this year and mingle with Lambs.

Mariah Gucci Carey (114,899) by TJ from Norway
Is this the Mariah Archives, or a slaughter house? Is it really that bad? I had a look at the video the other day, and didn't cringe. I think this one was much better than the commercials she did in Japan. Much better.

Article: Mariah Carey gets serenaded in style (114,896) by D from United States
I just looked up Harmony Korine's movies, and the only ones I've seen are Kids and Spring Breakers. I don't remember much about either, except that they were both unsettling.

I watched Kids when I was a little kid at my neighbor's house, and it traumatized me so badly that I avoided having sex for a long time. I was the last of all my friends to do the deed.

With Spring Breakers, I just remember Selena Gomez being in it and the male lead reminding me of Britney Spears' kids' dad. I honestly don't remember anything else about the movie, other than the fact that it was unsettling. Maybe that's just his style.

I actually just watched some of the trailers and his movies actually look pretty good and artsy. I need to rewatch at least Kids and Spring Breakers and see how I feel about them now as an adult.

Walmart Christmas line, please? (114,895) by D from United States
I just thought of another one. A little boombox, like the ones she used to carry around in the early 2000s. But this one would be in Christmas colors and have a picture of her cartoon self on it. It would come with the Merry Christmas CD. It could be marketed as a gift for kids so they can listen to music the way we used to. Kind of a retro, nostalgic toy or gift. Maybe it could even count toward album sales? I've seen those little boomboxes at Walmart for around $10, so maybe it could sell for $30, with the CD included for "free".

Gucci Christmas ad (114,894) by Edward from USA
She's used a body doubles before. I was there when they were filming the video for "Obsessed", and I saw a body double there outside of the Plaza Hotel.

Walmart Christmas line, please? (114,892) by D from United States
I know it seems like everyone hates Mariah, but a lot of people actually really do love her, too. Plus, she's a Christmas icon now, just like Santa or a Christmas tree. The stuff on her website is a little pricey, but Walmart prices are affordable for everyone. The key is that the items have to be cute. And it could be a collection of around 15 items.

01) Pajamas
02) Wrapping paper - With Mariah on it, not just her initials. It should be thick wrapping paper with a lot of paper on each roll.
03) Mariah Elf on the Shelf
04) Extra clothes for the Mariah Elf on the Shelf
05) A box of Christmas ornaments - Similar to the ones she sold on QVC.
06) A framed art print - Mariah from the original Christmas album.
07) An advent calendar - With a little Mariah doll behind each door, wearing a different outfit. This would probably be the most expensive item in the collection, but it should still be affordable.
08) Individual acrylic butterfly ornaments - In pink, purple, gold, and silver.
09) A soft throw blanket
10) A sweatshirt - With the Christmas cartoon version of Mariah on it.
11) A puzzle
12) A Mariah Christmas blow mold
13) Christmas decorations for a little tree - For example, a tree topper star with a picture of her face on it. Lol. The little dolls from the advent calendar could go on this tree, too.
14) A metal ornament tree - Specifically for displaying the Mariah doll ornaments.
15) A Christmas village house - A Mariah-themed house to add to a Christmas village collection.

Punk song lyrics (114,891) by Xavier mariohmix from Spain
Can anybody understand what she's saying in this new punk song on the It's Time video? Something like "Schwarzenegger with no muscles"? In fact, I've just found out that it's "Hermit". Here are the lyrics. They are so clever and bitter at the same time.

She is sad, she can't do anything right, she can't move her lips right, she can't walk right, she is ridiculous, she is awkward.

Especially Gucci's style is always like the Christmas one Mariah just did. It's not that those actors and models are weird looking or what, people in the fashion industry literally just look and act like that. Maybe it's because Mariah didn't have any high fashion and luxury endorsements when she was young and at her peak popularity that we are not used to seeing her in ads like this. If you wanna see "normal" people around Mariah, don't look to the Gucci ads or any high fashion ads, go get Mariah a Walmart line, just like D suggested.

She can't lip sync because she's on lip rest for when she has to lip sync to the pre-recorded vocals that she recorded for when she is on vocal rest to prepare for an entire minute of live vocals and "Hey"'s shouted during her upcoming Christmas shows.

Walmart Christmas line, please? (114,885) by nancy from Switzerland
This would be a great idea. But I don't know if Walmart [wants to] invest a large amount of money in Mariah. I honestly would take a star that is still successful and closer to the people. I guess they are more interested in Miley Cyrus, Sabrina Carpenter etc. Most people don't buy Gucci stuff. If I were Mariah, I would have chosen a company which sells scented candles, or body lotions and shower gels, soaps with Christmassy vibes like cinnamon, vanilla etc. I remember when she made the advert for [Claire's] with rings and necklaces. I still have the jewelry case. I guess that was the Charmbracelet era.
