About Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter:

Re: Baby (70,432) (70,436) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I completely agree about the boob situation haha. It does her no favors and thing is she accentuates it more with push up bras and contours and all other tricks when she exposes them whereas they appear way smaller when it's covered. But yes the 1998-1999 was a good boob moment. And dahlin' I adore ya and enjoy ya too, you already know that. Haha. I hope you enjoy the show and I would love to hear your feedback. Sending you love and hugs. (Thursday 29 December 2016; 23:26)

Re: Mariah's impact (70,427) (70,435) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Yes, like Eric mentioned, he got upset when he didn't hear from her team but in Mariah's defense she doesn't owe him anything. It can be seen from the scene (and either I'm imagining it or the guy said it himself) that she didn't just grab the pendant right away. She was trying to decline it but he insisted and she probably took it to make him happy. Now that doesn't obviously entitle him or anyone to anything. He made a choice of giving the gift to her. But regardless, skipping the nasty situation that it later turned into, I'm focusing on what most Mariah fans can relate to and that's the fact that her lyrics and music has touched us all and has helped us cope with stuff in life. That's one thing every Mariah fan probably has in common regardless of what they think of her current choices. That's one thing that will always make me respect her and give her the adoration she deserves. (Thursday 29 December 2016; 23:18)

Re: Baby (70,415) (70,421) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Butterfly was Mariah's overall beauty peak. I mean don't get me wrong, she still remains one of the most beautiful and gorgeous woman alive, but there was something about 1997 (whether it was her newfound freedom and confidence or something else, I don't know) but she was so ethereally beautiful, it was almost too good to handle. She was sensual and sexy without it being too harsh and in your face. Her make up and that amazing honey blonde-brown hair. She somehow managed to look sexy, innocent and classy all at the same time.

Mariah's impact (70,414) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Am I wrong or was the fan from this sneak peak of MW on this board a while back? Anyways the scene got me emotional and I can relate (not to the English learning thing because we learn it here either ways) because Mariah's music is just powerful it really speaks to your soul and helps you in many ways. I'm sure all of us here can relate. Things like these make me love her even more. She is just so talented not only vocally but as a writer and an artist, this is why I get a little annoyed when I see what her image has become now because I respect her artistry so much I feel some of her recent moves have cheapened her image somewhat. She was such a mysterious, brilliant artist. The talent is still there undoubtedly and I just pray her team gets more professional. Honestly Mariah is one of the last living legends, she should be presented as the music royalty that she is, not a reality show newbie, and not the over exposed (both clothes wise and her being seen everywhere nowadays) persona. I hope to see more fan interactions in MW, people should see how this woman has touched the lives of so many people around the world, even places she has never been to.

Re: Leave Mariah alone (70,409) (70,413) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mariah seems to enjoy the dysfunctional mess that the Bulochnikovs bring with them. Stella will never demand holidays or days off because (a) that means she'll have to pay her way through those days and miss out on Mariah's lifestyle (b) why would she need a day off or take time off for holidays when she is always bringing her whole entire family (extended family and friends, yes friends as well) to these elaborate vacations with Mariah on Mariah's dime. I don't understand why Mariah would allow her to bring all these people. I get the fear of being alone may drive Mariah to surround herself with people but really she is never alone because she has her kids and her real family as in Patricia and Shawn. Why not take some time off and hang out with just them? Of course that poses the potential threat of Mariah realizing she doesn't need the Bulochnikovs to be happy and Crustella will not be down with that. (Thursday 29 December 2016; 12:04)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey and Bryan Tanaka are heating up (70,410) (70,411) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Hahah dead. Straight to the point, I just can't. (Thursday 29 December 2016; 11:55)

Little sister Mimi (70,319) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Haha I'm laughing at Mishka calling Mariah her little sister in this post. Technically she's right since Mishka is now 13 while Mimi is eternally 12. (Monday 26 December 2016; 15:21)

New website (70,262) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Can someone please explain to me why Mariah has this new "life and style" type website now? I'm so sick of seeing stupid links on her Facebook page from her website about weird baby gifts, stuff to avoid talking about during the holidays and what not. It's all so cheap and doesn't go with her brand. Are they on a mission to involve her brand with everything she doesn't match with and then cheapen it some more? I just don't get it. Yes she needed her website to be more active and up to date but what's with these stupid posts? (Saturday 24 December 2016; 6:49)

Funny or Die videos (70,239) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter This video of Mariah reading a Christmas story to kids is hilarious. Loved it. Here's the Katie Couric interview sketch. This is another video, it's a sketch about Mariah judging a Santa audition. This video is kinda a continuation of the last one. Another sketch from the Funny or Die series from last year. This is the "Cooking with Mariah" sketch in case you missed it last year. Oh I forgot to add this video in my last post. (Friday 23 December 2016; 20:16)

Re: What the fudge (70,150) (70,164) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter That's her Aspen tradition. There will be one more of her in a bikini in a hot tub in the middle of the snow. Side note: funny thing is now Mishka writes "Aspen Tradition" in her insta post, like girl you've just been going to Aspen since last year, calm it down. (Wednesday 21 December 2016; 11:11)

Re: Mimi L (70,134) (70,139) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Of course Stella and Co would think that people who call things out for what it is are goats. Because they themselves would never do it in fear of losing the ability to enjoy MC's lifestyle and money. If Stella was less of a leech and more of a competent manager she could actually use her stalking skills to get a lot of great ideas for Mariah's career. Some fans here and on UKMix have a lot of ideas that would have helped Mariah but nope, she won't let any outsiders get any credit, keep it all in the family. Anyways thanks for the info Giselle, good to know that we are such a popular board. (Tuesday 20 December 2016; 14:51)

Re: Mariah's World / WWHL (70,128) (70,131) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Can you elaborate on the whole "they read MCA" part please? I'm interested because I had a feeling for a long time that they do, and they might even be posting here. I got the feeling they read this board because some of the stuff Stella did were suggested on this board, of course Stella would never credit us for the ideas. Anyways I wanted to know how the topic came about and what Stella and her Co leeches said about us. (Tuesday 20 December 2016; 10:35)

Re: Stella fired Danielle Priano again (70,129) (70,130) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Unfortunately Stella doesn't give too hoots about what Mariah's fans think. Remember this is the same woman who has disrespected her fans many times on social media and went on about how they can't even afford her shoes. Mariah's hair is the least important thing right now (and no don't get me wrong, I know exactly what your point is and I agree with you), what I'm more concerned about is Mariah's image. It has been a hot mess. She has gone from classy to trashy. No matter how much we protest, Stella doesn't let Mariah see the real truth, only the rose colored ones. (If you need a visual of what goes on, go and check the scene where Mariah is getting booed and Stella goes "no they're not booing".) Also there's a point where we gotta stop 100% blaming Stella and shift some on Mariah. Why will Mariah allow this crap? I mean sure Stella's the manager but Mariah's the boss, if she wants Priano then who on earth is Stella to remove her? The fact that Mariah gives so much power to Stella is Mariah's shortcoming and obviously leeches will suck blood. But Mariah should have stepped in and just shut the crap down. I don't know why Mariah doesn't see through Stella's fake "empower women" crap, when clearly Stella can't stand another woman unless they bow down to her and Danielle isn't one to bow down. I hope when Danielle finally comes back, it's after Stella gets fired, out of respect for Danielle. If Mariah keeps getting swayed by the opinions of a woman who couldn't get her tour right, her promotions right, her image right then I really don't see how anyone can help her.

Re: The Mariah - Stella relationship (70,109) (70,115) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Leave it to Mariah to clean house by throwing out old leeches then bringing in a fresh batch of new leeches to replace them. (Monday 19 December 2016; 23:02)

Re: MW episode 3 : Mimi L review (70,110) (70,113) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Seriously though who are they married to? Brett? Haha, Stella is such a creep. Sometimes she even looks at Mariah like a creep. (Monday 19 December 2016; 22:31)

Re: Power Le : Mimi L review (70,101) (70,106) (70,112) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter To paraphrase Stella (mainly to edit out the curse words) "Lose my number, you're a dummy. Mariah's on fire." (Monday 19 December 2016; 22:30)

Article: Mariah Carey is a hands-on boss (70,111) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter "Despite Bryan asking Mariah if she remembered him in the first episode, Bryan says that Mariah has been one of the most supportive people in his career. He also makes a point to detail just how single he is and how much fun he's having on his own - he's ready, though, to settle down with one woman." This show is so full of inaccuracies, that too in the same episode, I wonder who the heck actually approved it. They keep contradicting themselves on the show. Also Bryan continuously talking about wanting some alone time with Mariah, even if he has to "steal her away" is just plain disturbing and weird. I mean first of all Bryan, that's your boss, why are you so interested in getting alone time with her? Second, no one cares about your relationship status, although if I'm not mistaken he was in a relationship around the time the tour started and I know this because I saw a picture on insta and I was wondering what his girlfriend thinks about this. (Ok don't quote me on this though, I could be wrong.) Also the fact that they have had this story line seed planted from the very first episode just makes me cringe even more, like Mariah, girl, what went wrong? Side note, adults sending a 12 year old to a boy's locker room to ask him to come out of a cake naked is so inappropriate. (Monday 19 December 2016; 22:23)

Re: MW episode 3 : Mimi L review (70,093) (70,101) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ya wait until at the end of the series it's revealed that after several heartbreaks from dudes Mariah is now dating Stella. I'm calling it right now hahaha. Also how annoying was it that Stella had the nerves to go off on Danielle and tell her she's outta line when Stella was the one continuously flipping her middle finger and using the F word on Danielle? (Monday 19 December 2016; 21:10)

Re: MW episode 3 : Mimi L review (70,087) (70,092) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter After watching Mariah's World, and if any of it is true, I'm really surprised that an A-list celeb like Mariah would even put up with such a rowdy and chaotic team. I mean Stella is continuously throwing fits, messing up, others are fighting and going at each other and Mariah is there either on stage or counseling her employees. Celebs spend so much money on big teams so that they themselves don't have to take a lot of stress and instead focus on their craft, and of course just see that her team is doing what they were supposed to do (like you mentioned). But the picture that MW is painting is that she has this whole mismanaged amateur team who are all up on each other and messing stuff up and eventually Mariah is having to go around and calming them down. It's weird. (Monday 19 December 2016; 17:05)

Re: Thoughts on WWHL (70,088) (70,091) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter You really don't, you can actually mistaken this for any of her other recent interviews. No straight answers, questions avoided by talking about her shoes and decor, no actual mention of what she is actual promoting (unless of course you take into consideration that she said "I want people to watch the show and find out" when Andy asked about Bryan). (Monday 19 December 2016; 17:01)

Thoughts on WWHL (70,085) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter 1) Living for the Demi shade. This is probably the first time in forever that Mariah addressed a question head on and I appreciate that she gave Demi a read and that too with top notch class. Demi's attack on Mariah was uncalled for. 2) Cringed at the Ariana shade. I am no fan of Ariana, I find her annoying and well don't like her in general, but I do enjoy some of her songs, I'll be honest. I think Mariah really didn't need to add more smoke to fire about her not liking Ariana. 3) She speaks fondly of Beyonce and that Dembabies get along great with Blue Ivy (I'm sure North West is out there throwing daggers for glares right about now haha). 4) I'm a little annoyed as usual by Mariah constantly going off tangent and avoiding questions. Her going on about the decor and her ensemble whenever she wants to avoid questions. Even Andy looked annoyed haha. 5) Mariah's comment about how she won't talk about the truth about her and Tanaka because she wants people to watch the show just cements the fact that it is indeed a scripted show, in case some of y'all "real" *cough delusional cough* fans were thinking this is the real deal. The only way she'll come out looking good about this possible "cheat-ation" (in Wendy's words, please don't censor it Eric, haha I know it's not a real word) story line is if it is revealed that Tanaka is gay or that James was abusive and Tanaka came in to protect Mariah. (Monday 19 December 2016; 15:10)

Re: Trey Lorenz? Blurred face (70,079) (70,084) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter To be fair, I think Brenda is just pissed off that Mariah has distanced herself from her. Mariah can't possible take "advantage" of her friends because to do that, her friends need to be able to have something she doesn't. All of Mariah's friends are just her employees and these people are not public figures and have nothing to offer her apart from what they are employed to do. Why Trey Lorenz chose not to sign off on being on the show is also a mystery to me and if it's because he doesn't want the drama then more respect to him. I mean if the fact that he stuck with Mariah through thick and thin for so long wasn't enough for me to respect him, then this would seal the deal. But ya I don't see how Mariah can take "advantage" of her friends. I'd understand if this was said about Taylor Swift and her squad, all of them seem to have an agenda to use each others fame to collectively boost their image, but in Mariah's case it's completely different. If anything her employees take advantage of her, as we can see with Stella and some others before her. (Monday 19 December 2016; 15:02)

AIWFCIY (70,081) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter So the popular YouTuber Patrick Starr posted this video on his channel with some other YouTubers dancing and "festivating" (as Mariah calls it) to AIWFCIY. This song is just so festive. (Monday 19 December 2016; 13:18)

Re: AIWFCIY Carpool Karaoke (70,060) (70,071) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter B, I see you still plugging in Rachel Zoe every chance you get haha. Keep at it, make it happen dahlin' . (Monday 19 December 2016; 10:10)

Re: Nick opens up / CaseyShow podcast (70,059) (70,070) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Thanks for the run down Marissa. I wanted the highlights. (Monday 19 December 2016; 10:09)
