About Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter:

Re: Wow some post here (66,216) (66,221) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Please don't generalize the lambs by saying that. A lot of us here are supportive of her most of the times and at the same time we tell it like it is. Instead of being an enabler and just sitting back and watching her destroy herself while chanting "yas queen". Most people here give constructive criticism and suggestions instead of just bashing her. I won't deny there are rude posts and that some people want her to live up to her "90's standard", something I think we shouldn't because people evolve. But that doesn't represent all of us on this board. I will give the same suggestion Terna did, if you can't digest it, scroll up, unless personally attacked. If you can digest it, provide your point of view with examples instead of going down the old and tired "haters vs real lambs" arguments. That never goes anywhere. (Tuesday 13 September 2016; 15:23)

Re: Annabelle (66,215) (66,220) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter One more thing, perhaps the most important part, Anabelle will always claim to "understand" Mariah better than any of you peasants and goats because in Anabelle's head, he/she personally knows Mariah and has all the inside info. They also claim to have a strong "sixth sense". Which often ends up embarrassing them. So there you go Ribbon. (Tuesday 13 September 2016; 15:17)

Mac (66,219) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Apparently this is her new MAC collection. Finally. Love it. (Tuesday 13 September 2016; 14:49)

New music (66,218) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter For the last few days we are getting a lot of "new music soon" coming from Mariah and her friends. I hope the promo plan is set, Lord knows I'm thirsty for some new music. Although I am ready to wait if she needs time. I am happy to see her collaborate with Crystal because she comes up with catchy ones. And I think we can be certain a Weeknd collaboration has happened or is scheduled to happen because she never said "no we didn't but I'd like to". With Beyonce she clarified that. Here she kept smiling and said "I'd like to see that". So I am expecting a sexy jam from these two. (Tuesday 13 September 2016; 14:46)

Re: Annabelle (66,207) (66,215) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Rumor also has it that they are an active poster on the elegant UKMix where Anabelle is notorious for trolling and being bashed on the regular by other members for being, well a troll. This is the same poster who keeps bringing up the petition (in a negative light of course) and thinks everyone is out to sabotage Mariah. They will simultaneously argue that Mariah has superpowers and can see what no one else does, but at the same time everyone fools Mariah. Everyone from Tommy Mottola to Dalai Lama. Anabelle has this condition where they forget what is truth and what is a conspiracy theory so they will try to fight you and try to pass their theories as facts. When attacked, expect Anabelle to take personal shots at you which will include calling you a "psycho" or things of that nature. Best thing to do is keep Anabelle locked in a glass box with a sign "positively do not touch". Contact Lorraine Warren if Anabelle gets out of hand. (Tuesday 13 September 2016; 13:57)

Re: Anthony Burrell (66,209) (66,214) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I don't think that was Anthony, as far as I remember that was someone from her old team. Someone who was also friends with RaeRae because he was tagging her. When Anthony left, I think he put up a post thanking Mariah and her team. My memory is a bit foggy at the moment but basically Anthony didn't say anything about Stella. Stella is still very much in Mariah's circle but I think she has taken note and is keeping a low profile. It's about time because I almost lost track of whether Stella was a part of Mariah's entourage or Mariah was a part of Stella's entourage haha. So it's refreshing to see MC with people other than Stella. (Tuesday 13 September 2016; 13:33)

Celine (66,197) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I never really watched a lot of Celine interviews before (I think she has a beautiful voice though). But recently I came across some new ones that she has been doing lately and she is hilarious. Love the sense of humor. I love that she did "Wheels of Musical Impressions" and attempted to twerk to "Work". Now she did a segment on Ellen where she puts her ballad spin on some rap songs and it's just so much fun to watch. I'd love for Mariah to do such skits and just let loose and show off her voice.

Re: World premiere (66,171) (66,193) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I don't know how I missed seeing this post, great job. I love the social message. I actually really like the song "Imperfect" and I wish it got an official release. My hope for Mariah is to have another uplifting song with a social message addressing some of the key problems (or a particular problem) of the society now. Anyways, enough about her, back to your video, love your idea and enjoyed the video. Keep doing more. (Monday 12 September 2016; 21:08)

Re: Creative Director (66,185) (66,192) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter About Bryan, I wonder what happened. Maybe he wasn't the CD this leg because Bryan is getting ready to work on the SSFT shows? I hope they didn't have a bad end because under Bryan's direction, the show was more energetic. (Monday 12 September 2016; 18:52)

Re: Creative Director (66,185) (66,191) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Haha yes Anabelle loves their 35 carat diamond ring and Anabelle loves their crazy conspiracy theories. (Monday 12 September 2016; 18:48)

Re: Memoirs was not a bad CD (66,175) (66,177) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Yes and I don't understand why Mariah trusts this man so blindly. There were a lot of opportunities with Memoirs. They ruined it with poor videos and single choices. (Monday 12 September 2016; 12:05)

Re: Mariah Carey cancels Meet & Greet again (66,174) (66,176) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter What was the argument about? And why didn't they just remove the fan and carry on with the rest of the meet and greet? (Monday 12 September 2016; 12:04)

Re: Mariah in the studio (66,153) (66,162) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Crystal Johnson. They worked together on TMB and IBLYLT and some other songs too I think. She also worked with Beyonce and Rihanna. (Monday 12 September 2016; 1:58)

Re: Mariah is lost (66,137) (66,160) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Anabelle is back, with an unoriginal name. I don't know why bother with a different name when it's not even that different, I mean they could have gone for something like Dandelion. But that name didn't work for them either to hide their crazy self so. But we love everybody. (Monday 12 September 2016; 1:36)

Re: Mariah is lost (66,149) (66,159) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The problem with "Memoirs" I think was not her manager, it was LA. Memoirs had a lot of promotion. She was on a lot of shows, including The Chatty Man (which is probably one of the last international promotion she did). She was booked both for performances and interviews and she handled it really well. She looked beautiful and happy. Her dress up was fine too. It's LA who caused the downfall of "Memoirs". First by not letting "Obsessed" do its magic. That song would have definitely charted higher if he did not pull the plug on it. Then the following single choices were bad. "H.A.T.E.U" So So Def remix could have been a hit but LA didn't allow it because of his differences with JD. So all in all I'd say more than her manager, Memoirs was doomed because of LA. I think even MC2Y had quite a lot of promo. Ever since then it started going down the drain with her choosing one wrong manager after another. I still can't wrap my head around the idea as to why she doesn't hire the best manager around. She has the money and I'm sure people would love to take her on as a manager but maybe she does not want another "strong voice" to tell her what to do since she does not want to be "managed". As much as I think Mariah is a brilliant songwriter and possibly the most gifted vocalist, I have to say business wise, she needs to learn to give control to someone who does this for a living.

Re: Am I too late? (66,123) (66,128) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Haha TJ yes it is. (Sunday 11 September 2016; 12:39)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey's "Angels" grounded 'til March (66,113) (66,117) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter But dahlin' the T-Pain "Candy Bling" remix has been out for years now. I think I heard it right around the time I heard the other remixes when they all leaked. The remix was nothing different from the original, as in it didn't have re-recorded vocals like some of the other remixes, it just had an extra verse by T-Pain. I don't know why it's not on YouTube, but see if this Daily Motion link works for you. By the way, was this really the tracklist? I saw one back when they announced it, but the one I saw doesn't completely match with some of the featured artists here. This could have been a good remix album. (Sunday 11 September 2016; 0:57)

Re: New music (66,104) (66,110) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I am actually hoping for a more uplifting album than a sad one. I also don't want it to be too personal. We had that with MIAM. I want an overal happy record. But I wouldn't mind some BGK moments and I would also appreciate some songs where she focuses on story telling and atmosphere like "The roof". (Saturday 10 September 2016; 21:42)

Re: Mariah's posts (66,099) (66,109) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter But then Beyonce doesn't post photos like these on the regular. Yes she has her somewhat exposed moments but those are actually quite rare. Mariah has done naked photos before too but not so frequently. Nowadays she hardly puts clothes on. Beyonce's Instagram actually looks like the Instagram of a major superstar. Mariah's looks like a 13 year old's Instagram. Let's also not forget Beyonce doesn't show up in her lingerie to appearances. As for the "other worse people", why do we always have to be grateful that there are people doing worse stuff? That's always funny to me when fans make that argument. (Saturday 10 September 2016; 21:21)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey's "Angels" grounded 'til March (66,094) (66,108) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter We also heard the "H.A.T.E.U." remix and your namesake "Ribbon" remix. (Saturday 10 September 2016; 21:14)

Re: New album wishlist (66,092) (66,107) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter She is already working with Crystal. She was in the studio with her yesterday. Great list of collaborators by the way. I am here for all of them. (Saturday 10 September 2016; 21:11)

Re: MIAMTEC the deluxe edition I finally got it (66,091) (66,096) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I really wanted to hear the remix with R Kelly, but I was so disappointed. It ruined a beautiful (and one of my favorite) songs. The lyrics didn't match. Overall mess. I'd rather have her release the "More than just friends" remix which was apparently re-recorded with Fabolous but they instead decided to write a new song. Which is fine, I enjoy "Money". However it wouldn't hurt to include the "More than just friends" remix if she really wanted to use old stuff because from the 1 minute snippet I heard, it sounds good.

New post (66,075) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter So seems like the tacky train won't stop anytime soon. This picture would have been perfect if she would have just put some pants on. Seriously, the top half, she looks gorgeous. Her face is perfect, her hair is beautiful, the pose doesn't look forced. But then we have the fishnets and no pants. I just can't. (Saturday 10 September 2016; 11:51)

Re: New interview (66,040) (66,045) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Haha no I meant that she was probably about to say she had the best time of her life with Luis Miguel but then realized Packer would not be down with that, so quickly changed it to something else. She was smitten by Luis, there is no doubt in that. If I'm not mistaken, their break up along with several other problems in her life led to the 2001 breakdown. I mean it was part of the reason, obviously she had a lot more going on. (Friday 9 September 2016; 22:04)

Re: Bath tub post (66,037) (66,042) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter If they thought this would help repair her image, then they are dead wrong. Yes it might help people tune in to the reality show, key word here is "might". Because it might putt off people more because they already think she is an over the top self obsessed diva. Now to have her be naked in a tub wearing diamond jewellery will only support that image. Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Mariah say through this she wants people to see the "real her" and said she thinks people don't know anything about her. I don't see how this is any different from what people think. If Mariah has such short term goals "get trashy to sell the reality show", what will happen after the airing of the 8 episodes? She should have long term image repair goals so that it ensures her future music would sell better. After all that's the first thing that should come to people's mind when they hear her name right? Mariah is music? Andrew don't even bother insulting me about this messy rambling post man, I know I probably am writing crap by now, I am just too frustrated with where this is going. Yes, like people have pointed out this isn't new behavior (the naked bath tub moment) but I've said before, Mariah always had some trashy moments but nowadays it's always like this. Previously it was balanced. Now it's always bodysuits, bra and those blouses which have strings near the boobs. Plus her team does bull crap, instead of highlighting her successful run at Vegas, they are instead running stories about her naked in a bath tub. (Friday 9 September 2016; 21:50)
