Mariah's evergreens (36,811) by TJ from Norway I don't think all of Mariah's #1s has the evergreen status as mention earlier. In my opinion there are just a few. I guess maybe Fantasy, Hero and I'll Be There are evergreens. All I Want For Christmas and Without You are evergreens (in Europe). No one can tell me that Touch My Body, Don't Forget About Us, Heartbreaker, Someday, Emotions, Thank God I Found You (and so many more) are evergreens. Artists have many number one songs, but not many evergreens. (Thursday 22 November 2012; 8:56)

Niki (36,810) by Nattalie from USA That girl loves to dig her grave huh? Just keep digging girl, keep digging. (Thursday 22 November 2012; 7:25)

I got me some tickets! (36,809) by Todd from Melbourne, Australia I am actually going to see this woman sing live. (Thursday 22 November 2012; 6:20)

Instant hits and then forgetable (36,808) by Zachary from Croatia Rihanna maybe do score number one places on the charts, but those songs are almost all the same. And then you just forget about it. Mariah´s number ones are evergreens and timeless. (Wednesday 21 November 2012; 23:43)

Re Monroe (36,807) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada I thought the same thing, Jenny. She has a striking resemblance to Mariah as a child. I can't believe how fast the twins are growing up. (Wednesday 21 November 2012; 21:59)

Monroe (36,806) by Jenny from South Africa I don't know if I'm just imagining things, but in that picture Nick posted of Monroe, her face just reminds me so much of that picture of Mariah as a child playing in the sand in her #1's album sleeve. Both pics are just so adorable. (Wednesday 21 November 2012; 19:15)

Re: CDC - Rihanna (36,805) by Jamie from UK Diamonds has peaked at #2 so far on Hot 100, so Rihanna still has 11 number ones as of 21st November 2012. That might change tomorrow but oh well. Her success is explainable by the fact the music climate has changed like it always does and always will. Rihanna is the superstar of her generation, just like Mariah was of hers. In 50 years Mariah probably won't be in the top 10 anymore, but that won't ever devalue her legacy in music. *BTW, The Beatles have 20 not 19 #1s. (Wednesday 21 November 2012; 14:18)

Nicki Minaj (36,804) by CDC from CA As for this Nicki Minaj business: My problem isn't the fact that she released a "diss" track. The issue, I find, is that she released it while she continues on press junkets with nothing but "praise". She was on GMA this morning, and dismissed the scenario as a one-off lapse of better judgment, and yet, her recent deeds seem to be prolonging the controversy much more so than that Barbara Walters conversation. She went on a twitter tirade was apparently instigated by that "View" episode, all the while having the entire events filmed. Interview packages and all. She is an absolute hypocrite looking to draw attention towards her latest re-re-release album, which is currently sitting at an abysmal 21 on CA iTunes. (Wednesday 21 November 2012; 5:25)

Rihanna ties Madonna (36,803) by CDC from CA Well, looks like Rihanna's inexplicable streak of number one hits continues with her latest, "Diamonds". Just incase anyone wants to keep track: 1. The Beatles (19) 2. Mariah Carey (18) 3. Elvis Presley (17) 4. Michael Jackson (13) 5. The Supremes (12) = Madonna (12) = Rihanna (12) 6. Whitney Houston (11) 7. Stevie Wonder (10) = Janet Jackson (10) Who's the odd one out? (Wednesday 21 November 2012; 5:11)

Nicki who? (36,802) by Carol from Spain I can't take this Nicki stuff anymore. Obviously she is dissing Mariah, yet again. This girl doesn't get that she is the only one talking about this. She can't even write proper English. I wish that she goes off again on Idol, so she would be sacked by the producers for good. Mariah is so much better then her for not talking about it. If Mariah ever mentions this, it will be after the show is over and I believe Mariah will speak once and say enough. Let Nicki think she is the best and the one and only judge. (Wednesday 21 November 2012; 1:33)

Nicki dissing Mimi (36,801) by RadChad from United States I haven't heard the new diss track from Nicki, but I'm already ready for an internet leak of "Clown Part II". People forget that Mariah is pretty nice with her pen game too. (Tuesday 20 November 2012; 23:53)

Bob/reminiscing about Disco (36,800) by CDC from CA I caught the original [uncensored] message. A rather harsh way of putting it, but I got Bob's point. It's sad that Donna Summer and Andy Gibb are being sidelined from receiving all these lush, high production tributes probably because they've been marginalized as strictly disco. I don't want to age myself, but I grew up in the UK, so we didn't get much disco for a while until Donna Summer released "MacArthur Park". That was a massive crossover hit, I remember, dominating practically every music format. And frankly, was there ever a bigger star than Donna during the "MacArthur" period? The success of the "Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack set the precedent for all soundtracks that followed, largely credited to the Bee Gees. They really helped lift the spirits of what were horribly angry teenagers rioting on the streets for whatever reasons. There was tons of ABBA to go around, but absolutely nobody my age would have admitted to even recognizing the melody to "Mamma Mia", let alone "Dancing Queen". There was something severely 'unhip' about them, at least in my schoolyard. Donna and Andy were two of the biggest stars in the world, but it seems as if that fact is being masked in what seems like a continuing backlash against disco among rock circles.

Nicki Minaj (36,799) by Jamie from UK I really can't see Mariah making a song about her - oh wait, she already did: "I ain't who you think I'm is, I will snatch off all this ish. You think I won't come out of these heels and make it clear?" NTT lol. Let Nicki Minaj make the most of her 15 minutes of fame. (Tuesday 20 November 2012; 21:36)

Mariah's recent appearance (36,798) by Joanna from Poland Wow, Mariah has looked amazing recently. She looks so radiant and beautiful, perhaps she is pregnant again. Cheers my fellow lambs. (Tuesday 20 November 2012; 20:40)

Re: Stacey, disrespect to Whitney (36,797) by Jamie from UK Whatever Bob wrote has been censored by the moderators, that's why you can't see it anymore. I didn't see it either, but I think we can guess what it said based on the responses below. (Tuesday 20 November 2012; 20:29)

Eric, webmaster (36,795) by Stacey from USA Thanks for the clarification. I thought everyone was reading the same message I was, and so I thought what is all the fuss? Thanks for clearing it up. (Tuesday 20 November 2012; 19:46)

It's just not Christmas without 1994's Merry Christmas (36,794) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada I know it's early, but I've already had the album and DVD out for both MC and MC II You. Mariah's music has become such a part of my life and the season, it would feel so strange not to have it. The music truly does carry so many happy moments for me. I couldn't imagine Christmas without it. (Tuesday 20 November 2012; 19:29)

And now back to Mariah (36,793) by Anonymous from I'm wondering if Mariah is going to record an "answer song" to Nicki Minaj's "Hell Yeah" which many in the industry are saying is aimed at Mariah (I did not hear Nicki say that herself, but it's pretty apparent IMO). One thing is for sure. If Mariah does record one, she'll be far more respectful, and in tune. Enjoy the day fellow lambs. (Tuesday 20 November 2012; 7:27)

Bob's message (36,792) by Stacey from USA Now, you know me, I'm not one who usually defend's Bob's posts. I usually don't comment on them. So, I think I'm being objective in saying I read Bob's message over and over and I really tried to find anything utterly disrespectful, and I just couldn't. If you want a disrespectful message, I'll tell you about one Eric sent me that he didn't post. But hey, we all see things differently. Whitney is a legend, part of the holy trinity of singers (i.e. Mariah and Celine). Webmaster: Believe me, the uncensored message was horrible. (Tuesday 20 November 2012; 5:15)

Bob, be respectful to the late Whitney please. (36,791) by Edward from USA Whitney Houston may have gone through hard times with drugs and all, but she was loved for her contribution to music. We all waited for her full rehabilitation, since we knew her talent, but sadly it never happened. Nobody is perfect and only she knew what she went through and how she resorted to drugs. Bob, it's easy to judge, but if you were to take a look at yourself, you would realize that you have had your personal demons too, just like the rest of us. I don't do drugs or alcohol, but I'm not quick to judge, because every case is different. I couldn't even imagine what would be like to be ridiculed, to know you have lost a voice like that, and not being able to walk away from that type of life. As outsiders we all seem to have the solution to other people's lives, but do we? If you're fat, don't eat, if you're on drugs, go to rehab, if you're bulimic, don't throw up, if you're gay, go to church, pretty easy right? People pay tribute to Whitney the artist, her contribution to music, her legacy, not her way of life. I've seen people from beautiful and loving families go to waste due to drugs and alcohol, so nobody is exempt. Some are addicted to food, sex, shopping, etc., and the solution is not as easy as money and treatment, sometimes is goes as far as rooted unresolved issues from their childhood.

To Desiree and Stephen (36,790) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands I'm sorry, I should have censored Bob's disrespectful message right away. (Tuesday 20 November 2012; 0:40)

Desiree (36,789) by Stephen from London, United Kingdom I agree. Such comments are very distasteful. Firstly, this is a Mariah messageboard, so it's irrelevant to post something like that here. Secondly, she's dead, there's no need to be rude. No matter what she did in her private life, you can't deny her legend. Respect should be shown. (Tuesday 20 November 2012; 0:30)

Bob, IAA (36,788) by Desiree from USA Until you are as successful as the late Whitney Houston, you really need to be quit and stay in line, because that is highly disrespectful. You may not like her, but that doesn't give you the right to be rude. (Monday 19 November 2012; 21:20)

Mariah, the world of music needs you now (36,787) by Anonymous from After watching the AMA's last night, all I can say is, in my opinion, music is just about dead. As far as I see it, only our "Imperfect Angel" - Mariah - can save it. And the lambs shall rejoice (I would imagine) upon the arrival of music's savior (which I believe she is). We'll just have to wait until sometime next spring (or in "Mariah time", whenever). In my observation, that was the worst show yet (and I've watched since it's inception in 1974). Everything sounded the same to me, souless. It looked to me like the same flashing lazer lights, shooting flames, and 20 dancers in every single act (except for Pink, who always turns in a great performance IMO). Then they pay tribute to [...] Whitney Houston, yet mention nothing about others who passed away over the past year [...] (Donna Summer, Gary Moore, Natina Reed to name a few). The only reason they said anything about Dick Clark was because he did establish the awards and Ryan Seacrest was a good friend of his. Suffice to say I will not be watching next year's telecast, unless Mariah is on it of course. P.S. Memo to the "Mail.online" staff: Nick and Mariah were married in 2008, not 2007. (Monday 19 November 2012; 15:49)

Jay (36,786) by Stacey from USA You are welcome. I hope you get to enjoy them soon. (Monday 19 November 2012; 9:32)
