Bodysuits (60,501) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I never thought I would see Mariah in a bejeweled bodysuit and I don't know what I would have said if someone asked me about it before I saw her pics and videos of yesterday, but honestly after watching her, I was like slay my queen. When I saw her instagram picture of her standing in the hallway about to get on stage, I literally fell off my chair. She was on fire. She was so confident, rocking that bodysuit, moving around, moving around the stage like she knew she looked like a billion bucks. This fire, this confidence is something I have been missing in Mariah. Something she lost after 2008. But yesterday, just seeing her work the stage, and be so confident, I say, go for it. She even had moments where she let a little (almost negligible) imperfections show in her voice without hiding it behind pre-recorded tracks. That just shows how confident she is with her voice again. That she knows she can slay it live without having to hide behind lipsyncs. What a change from the Mariah that was standing stiff in the center of the stage, trying to make every note sound precise and looking like she is uncomfortable through out. This is what I want from Mariah, she knows she is legendary and she should own it. Heck even Wendy said it, that Mariah on her worst day sounds better than most singers out there. So MC do your thing. Side note, Lee TS, I can't at you labeling that region her Hello Kitty. I chuckled so hard, but I agree, the black bodysuit needs to be kept in check. It is a pretty risky one.

Re: Sweet Sweet Fantasy (60,490) (60,500) by ADAM from USA I wish she would perform obscure songs like Sent From Up Above, Alone In Love, Can't Let Go, Till The End of Time, and CryBaby to name a few. She always plays around with quoting these songs but never strays away from the same ol' setlist. I will say performing LoverBoy and When You Believe was amazing and surprising so I am very happy about that, but it's always good to expect more from her, otherwise why bother at all? Everyone has seen her perform her greatest hits to ad-nauseum. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 21:09)

Loverboy (60,499) by Carlos from Brazil I'm still in awe about Mariah performing Loverboy. Hope she would add more Glitter songs on the tour. I was literally crying. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 20:50)

AYNAF (60,498) by MC1989 from Spain First of all bravo Mariah. When You Believe and Against All Odds made me cry. But I missed AYNAF, it was a very big success here. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 19:45)

Re: Adam (60,497) by Nikki from usa I'd have to disagree, did you forget about her Charmbracelet tour? She wore a similar outfit in pink and white sparkles. J.Lo was still trying to be hip-pop back then. MC owned the circus glitter outfit before J.Lo began wearing them. More to the point MC was wearing a gown or two similar to this design earlier this year. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 19:19)

Mariah sounds beautiful (60,496) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada Full of confidence. This performance of When You Believe is so moving. Thank goodness for YouTube. Lol. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 18:38)

Proud (60,495) by Dav from Ireland I'm very proud of Mariah. She is looking and sounding fantastic. Seems to be in love, a great mum and living a very good life. By all accounts she stole the show last night. Seeing the clips of her preforming When You Believe was special to me. After all the criticism we give her, especially on this board, "the voice is worn, the song has too many rappers", lets celebrate this high point. Well done Mariah. I can't wait to see you in Manchester on Friday. Flying a crew in from Dublin. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 18:33)

Re: Sweet Sweet Fantasy (60,494) by Ian from United Kingdom I would have liked to see a couple of album tracks or b-sides, maybe a new cover, as it is it's just a singles/greatest hits type of show, its almost like she is afraid to do a song that some people may not know, it's all a bit safe. Am I the only one who thinks this? (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 18:13)

Glasgow (60,493) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) What a way to kick off a tour pulling out some oldies but goodies, her confidence was definitely off the charts. Also she proved with proper care and maintainance Mariah still has the goods of her gift her amazing instrument. Here is to a successful European tour and beyond. On another note, We Belong Together from opening night wow. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 18:07)

Set list (60,492) by TJ from Norway I've tried to find the set list for her opening concert, bur haven't yet. Anyone who knows? Maybe I didn't see the post here. Thanks to anyone who can help me. [Webmaster: See message 60,466.] (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 17:23)

Around the World (2002) / "reality" (60,491) by Billy from Greece For those who were quick to get caught up in the "reality" rumors, have you forgotten the VH1 special "What It's Like: Mariah Around The World" from the Charmbracelet era? It's not the first time Mariah has done this docu-series thing. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 17:15)

Re: Sweet Sweet Fantasy (60,466) (60,490) by Warren from Trinidad & Tobago Not being rude, but what else would you have wanted to see her do and hear her sing? (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 16:09)

Re: Sweet Sweet Fantasy (60,481) (60,489) by ADAM from USA I really love Mariah's shorter haircut and brighter color. My first wish was for her original brown color and curls but this is a good alternative for now. I don't like her JLo-esque body suits. It's funny because lambs always claim JLo copies Mariah, but I think her wearing these bodysuits are the most overt way of coping a style that while isn't new is widely popularized by JLo. Mariah's weight loss looks great but let's be real and call it like it is - Mariah does not have a tight, toned dancer's body so should leave those costumes for JLo and Beyonce.

WBT (60,488) by Luke from United Kingdom This woman is not messing around haha she means business. Just look at the guy in the background when she does the high falsetto in the climax. I love seeing her team excited and supporting her. The proof it's live is when she pulls her head back on the belt. She never stops amazing me. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 15:06)

Re: When you believe Glasgow (60,484) (60,487) by Merr Hasenan from Malaysia I'm in tears too. Thank you Mariah. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 12:29)

Re: Sweet Sweet Fantasy tour (60,477) (60,486) by Jenny from South Africa Hi Stacey. I did see an instagram clip with Without You. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 11:54)

Re: Sweet Sweet Fantasy tour (60,477) (60,485) by Lee TS from USA She did sing Without You Stacey. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 11:30)

When you believe Glasgow (60,484) by Terna from Nigeria This song has always been my favorite duet ever but after watching this performance last night. Wow it hit me, am I glad to be part of the generation that got to experience two of the greatest singers this world will ever know? Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey sing a song so beautiful. The tears welled up as I watched the last of the true divas do what she does best, sing her heart out and connect with your soul. Thank you Mariah for singing this song. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 10:26)

SSFT (60,483) by Matteo from Italy Yes. I knew it, and I told you so. "When you believe" was great. I'm happy for the set list too, but keep it mind that it will change according to the charts of each country. Although I would loved to hear Honey. And just one thing about the outfits, she reminded me of Beyoncé which is not a critic but I would loved if there were a little skirt (I mean in the opening sequence and also during the black outfit segment) as far as my opinion matter, I'm satisfied. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 10:14)

Oh Mariah (60,482) by Lee TS from USA She looks good, sounding good. After her statement on the docu-series it seems like things are coming together. Besides her family stuff, it's exciting times for Mariah and the lambily. I never thought I would see Mariah in a JLo ensemble, gives me hope maybe she'll wear a jumpsuit one day, preferably for Andy Cohen. I love her finale look, very beauty pageant. I'm not really feeling the black ensemble because you can almost see her hello kitty. I freaked when she did Loverboy and happy she decided to bring back WYB. Keep it up Mariah. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 9:42)

Re: Sweet Sweet Fantasy (60,466) (60,481) by Philipp from Switzerland Really? I love the setlist. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 8:36)

Sweet sweet vocals (60,480) by darrian liu from taiwan Her vocals are so smooth right now. [...] Mariah's been training hard vocally and it's showing. Her hair [...] gave me life. Second coming of Mimi. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 7:51)

Wow (60,479) by Gilles from Malta I am very impressed about the choice for the set of her Sweet Sweet Fantasy tour. It is so good to listen different songs. I must say thank you and bravo. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 6:58)

Article: Diva legend has still got it (60,478) by Gemma from Australia "Entertain her two sons." What the hell?? Did I read that correctly? I think someone didn't proofread. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 6:16)

Sweet Sweet Fantasy tour (60,477) by Stacey from USA I think one glaring miss from the set list is Without You. Didn't that song hit #1 in Europe? Anyways, if she is to tour Europe, her set list should include songs that hit the top 10 the mix that with obvious favs like ABMB, etc. (Wednesday 16 March 2016; 5:06)
