About Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States: A realistic lamb-that makes me a unicorn as well

Las Vegas (106,205) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States As if Mariah hasn't been whoring out that same damn Christmas song and album and re-selling it each year? The hypocrisy. (Thursday 18 April 2024; 02:27) this is a reply to message 106,187

Las Vegas (106,187) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I agree with this. I've seen nothing but good reviews from people who actually attended including them going on multiple dates. She isn't scamming anyone by saying come to this show to get the best vocal experience of your life. It's her celebrating a milestone. Taylor's situation is vastly different where she is manipulating her fans to buy the same songs in different collectible packaging to manipulate the charts and a cash grab.

Las Vegas (106,204) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States The lambs hate when you use that specific Whitney reference. It's an interesting duo: would you rather her sound horribly all live or perfect completely lipsynched? (Thursday 18 April 2024; 02:25) this is a reply to message 106,180

Las Vegas (106,180) by BFF from United States I agree with you. She's charging way too much money for this show to be so heavily pre-recorded. Wouldn't it be better to just record in the studio and not tour? She really needs to follow Linda Ronstadt's lead and stop doing live shows if she's only capable of a few minutes of live vocals. You can look at Mariah and tell that her heart isn't in it - there's no perspiration coming off of her, she's hardly moving, doesn't look winded at all. Whitney sounded awful during her last major tour (and really should not have done the tour) but at least Whitney sang mostly live. (Monday 15 April 2024; 16:35)

Fatigue/lack of energy (106,203) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States What to do? You cancel the show. If she is well enough to take our money, she needs to deliver. She isn't a victim here. She didn't have to do the residency as it's not terribly inspired conceptually. It's a fast money grab so make it worth our while. (Thursday 18 April 2024; 02:22) this is a reply to message 106,199

Fatigue/lack of energy (106,199) by 123 from USA Google is our friend. What does bipolar fatigue feel like? Whether it's due to an episode of depression or a side effect of medication, fatigue and loss of energy are common among people with bipolar disorder. You may wake up after a full night of sleep feeling exhausted, and seemingly simple daily tasks become daunting because the fatigue is so intense. What to do when bipolar zaps your energy? bpHope.com (Thursday 18 April 2024; 00:23)

Las Vegas (106,202) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States You've got to be kidding. (Thursday 18 April 2024; 02:20) this is a reply to message 106,200

Las Vegas (106,200) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Honestly I don't know, could be a lot of things. One could be just out of fear, my aunt had an accident where her shoulder got dislocated, it fully healed but some trauma or something led her to never raise her hand any more above a certain limit. Let's not forget she fell multiple times. One was when she was pregnant with the twins and just flat fell on stage, then the #Beautiful incident. She probably is just scared of falling in public again. But from the footage I saw of the show, she's moving around my herself instead of using 2 men to move her around, which is a start.

Uhmmm Mimi's deep cuts are MIA (106,159) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Huh? (Sunday 14 April 2024; 01:10) this is a reply to message 106,156

Uhmmm Mimi's deep cuts are MIA (106,156) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Did we get the full set list? I'm surprised there's no DFAU. She could have done a medley of One and Only and So Lonely. I saw she started with VOL. That's odd since the show is supposed to be a celebration of TEOM and she had ILT, SIO as perfect openers. Was there a reason behind her doing older songs for a majority of the show and then TEOM later? If so why no songs from albums after TEOM? All things aside she looks stunning, the gold dress she wears at the beginning of the TEOM set was beautiful and very TEOM coded. What I loved about some of the videos are that she was walking around by herself and even did a mini almost sprint. All these visually creates a more engaging show rather than using dancers as crutches. So she'll only get better. I hope with each show she also stops relying too much on the teleprompter but as always her shows getting better with more dates. The stage looks nice and moody very TEOM coded. All things asides I think in person the show was a lot better than whatever we can see from low res videos. (Saturday 13 April 2024; 22:57)

Las Vegas (106,158) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States She definitely doesn't look happy. She looks preoccupied and pulled out. (Sunday 14 April 2024; 01:09) this is a reply to message 106,150

Las Vegas (106,150) by Robert-Anthony from United States Are we surprised that she is using backing and pre-recorded tracks? However, she looks happy and beautiful and that is what counts. As for her being stiff, MC hasn't moved the same since her accident during the MIAM era. Maybe she will get back in the studio during May through July and create some TEOM magic.

Daydream is now Mariah's biggest album (105,932) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Those numbers don't make sense. Everyone kept posting that but there were no verified sources to confirm that Daydream has sold 30 million copies (Sunday 10 March 2024; 05:09) this is a reply to message 105,841

Daydream is now Mariah's biggest album (105,841) by Stacey from USA It's been a busy week. I was so excited to hear the news. Daydream is such a beautiful album. I can listen to every song. No fillers. (Saturday 2 March 2024; 03:38)

No new album in 2024 (105,931) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Why do we need more Christmas? What's left from that album to celebrate? (Sunday 10 March 2024; 05:08) this is a reply to message 105,848

No new album in 2024 (105,848) by T from USA I'm hearing that there indeed will be no new album this year. MC16 is nowhere near completion and she doesn't have a label either. For fans that loved MIAMTEC I'm sure when something finally comes it will be in the vein of that album that took time to release (2011-2014). And less like Caution that was all done in a matter of months. Jay Z and Roc Nation lined up ten different producers and Mariah just banged out Caution in record time. MC16 will be more of a personal work that has sit with her for years before release. The question will be if any of the Butterfly Lounge ideas will make it on. The Yes And remix was recorded to hold fans over until Christmas which will be a big 30th anniversary later this year. Hopefully there will be one more song release this year as well, but it doesn't look like it. (Sunday 3 March 2024; 13:51)

Will Daydream ever get its respect? (105,930) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States I absolutely hope there is no Merry Christmas 30. She has beat that horse to death. What will she be doing for Daydream30? It's clear, and she has alluded to it, that the Daydream era is bittersweet for her. However it's also her commercial peak. She seems to run from anything Daydream. There is so much she can do to commemorate it: recreate the tour merch, release the full artwork photoshoot (we've never seen it), release tour rehearsal footage, release an acapella of the album version of Fantasy, do an in depth interview about the album.

Torn (103,788) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States What’s your point? (Tuesday 17 October 2023; 23:14) this is a reply to message 103,778

Torn (103,778) by Lady B from USA LA Christmas show sold out in minutes and they added another date. (Tuesday 17 October 2023; 07:06)

Tis the season for something... (103,787) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States I was wondering if only people in LA got the invite? (Tuesday 17 October 2023; 23:13) this is a reply to message 103,780

Tis the season for something... (103,780) by Shezz from Pk Mariah has a Spotify taping with fans in LA in early November. She is also rumored to make a big announcement before her Christmas tour starts and have a big collaboration coming up. Could the fabled "Themed Album" be another Christmas album? Whereas a third Christmas album would be crazy even for Mariah, it also could be her safest album venture. Mariah is smart and knows her albums don't sell anymore but she also knows that she holds special magical powers during the holiday season. It's a long shot but maybe she's recorded another holiday album with a lot of collaborations? Either way - something is a'brewing. (Tuesday 17 October 2023; 15:25)

It’s A Wrap 12" (103,765) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Talk about random. Did this just pop up out of nowhere? (Monday 16 October 2023; 05:19) this is a reply to message 103,742

It’s A Wrap 12" (103,742) by Jamie from UK Is a 12" release really necessary or wanted? I get it was popular on TikTok but it's not like it broke the charts. I find Mariah fixates on something these days even when the moment has passed it desperate need for it to be popular. I wish she would fixate on getting herself back to a calm and controlled person again rather than being erratic and not being able to just have a conversation. (Saturday 14 October 2023; 09:22)

Torn (103,764) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Wow, I haven't posted here in years. I see some familiar faces still live here. Is anyone else torn on whether or not to go see Mariah in this upcoming run of shows? On the one hand, I want to see her because I've been a lamb for 25 years. With so many stars dying, there is always a scary thought of what if this is your last chance in the back on my head. On the other hand, her performances are just awful and maddening these days. Those shows last year had me so upset and sad for her. I also hate how she waits until October to publicize the shows. Why not tell us in July or August so that people can get their coins and travel set ahead of time? It's inconsiderate considering that the shows are in the midst of 2 holidays. I had to ask myself could I justify paying up to $1,000 for a front row seat (I'm too old of a lamb to sit in the back) just to hear her sing flat, and lipsynch the same old songs in the same old arrangement? Yet... a part of me still longs to go just for the merch and the chance to be seen by her. (Monday 16 October 2023; 05:18)
