Re: Dem kids on instagram (66,479) (66,485) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Here you go. Giving you an advance warning about potential headache due to little Bulochnikov moving the camera around so much. Waiting for the next installment featuring Miss Monroe singing "I'm Real". Just kidding. (Monday 19 September 2016; 20:31)

Empire song (66,470) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter According to "Mariah Carey Australia", we will get the new Empire song, at least the audio, which will be up for digital downloads on September 30th. (Monday 19 September 2016; 15:43)

10 random facts (66,466) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Love this video. Mariah looks great and full of life. I wish she was featured in some big magazines and we'd get some bonus videos like these. I'd love for her to have the Vogue 73 questions segment of her walking through her house and answering those.

Re: Why so melodramatic? (66,440) (66,446) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I loved the trailer but I'm a little concerned that she might push the diva image further down our throats. Like the part where she is laying around the house in lingerie and diamonds. I hope when the full episode airs, we see, she says something like "just kidding, I just got back from a shoot". But I'm keeping an open mind as of now. But if I see the Bulochnikovs trying to be the new Kardashians, I'll be pissed. (Monday 19 September 2016; 0:07)

Re: Mimi L. (66,437) (66,445) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Dahlin' I only believed it because it came out of Mariah's mouth. This is the same woman who flat out denied hearing "Drunk In Love" on air. Plus she was seen listening to "Love Drought" while she was lounging around on the yacht. So I do think she listened to it. I will however agree that Beyonce's albums sell nowadays purely on hype. There are very few songs in it that are actually good. (Monday 19 September 2016; 0:05)

Re: Implants / push up bra (66,436) (66,444) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I think this happened around the "Heartbreaker"/Rainbow era. One look at that pink crochet top with her boobs basically hitting you in the face while she leaned over and shook it around and you just know that them babies got some work done. Hahha. I love the "Heartbreaker" video to death though. Easily my top 5. But I think that's when they were well enlarged. Then gradually it kept getting bigger (because of push up bras dahlin') and now we have the golden globes. Frankly I think with a smaller size of the globes, Mariah would look a lot thinner. I mean she basically has a snatched waist line and great legs so ya. (Monday 19 September 2016; 0:03)

Re: So flutter through the sky, Butterfly (66,434) (66,443) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter This is something I want to yell at lambs when they go like "Oh Mariah has been flashing skin since she took her dress off during Honey, so why are you getting bothered now? Because she is 46?" or stuff like "would you be surprised if Mariah did this at 20 instead of her 40s?" The Butterfly era sexiness has effortless, it's graceful, it's beautiful. It suits her. She had this weirdly awesome mixture of a sense of self dignity (where she knew she was a freaking super star) and yet looked so humble (that smile, so beautiful, so genuine). She wore many outfits that showed off her legs, her cleavage and a lot more, but it never looked trashy. Her beauty was unmatched, her confidence, through the roof. She had this beautiful combination of "strong independent woman" with a slight reflection of vulnerability (I swear I didn't realize I named 2 of her songs back to back). That made her the girl you can relate to and also the girl you would show respect to. Basically nothing during that time was forced, fake, harsh or "trying too hard". Now we have the fake orange tan, the weird lashes, the lingerie moments, the ugly fishnets, the fake smile, the bad wigs. Basically everything that screams "trying too hard". The main problem now is Mariah doesn't need to try so hard, she is still beautiful, she has a killer body, her legacy is still intact. No one is telling her to cover from head to toe. Take note from your 27 year old self Mariah. You are better than this, you are greater than this. Don't let your orange manager influence you. (Sunday 18 September 2016; 23:58)

Mariah during the Butterfly era (66,428) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mariah was possibly the most beautiful person on earth during the "Butterfly" era. Seriously the woman was a goddess and her beauty was unmatched. I was going through some of her candid photos and shoots and it's mesmerizing. She had minimal makeup and was stunning. So I thought of sharing some here. This was from one of her shoots. Ethereal beauty much? This is from the same shoot and it's possibly one of my favorite shoots ever. No orange tan, no harsh contours, no wonky eyes shadows, no ugly wigs. This is one of her rare semi edgy shoots, where she played up her makeup, and although she doesn't have a long bob cut here, I think she can totally rock her. Plus how did Vogue not knock her during this time? Losers. Now for some candid moment, how is this even fair? This is one of my favorite red carpet looks from her. Everything from the hair, to the makeup to the outfit was perfect. (Sunday 18 September 2016; 13:10)

Re: Getting MC back to the top of the charts (66,426) (66,427) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter She isn't actually clueless, because she said she listened to "Lemonade", she listened to Rihanna's new songs, she listened to The Weeknd, Fetty Wap and many more. The problem is her stubborn attitude when it comes to change. She is not willing to make changes unless she is the one starting something. Like with the "Fantasy" remix she started a new trend. So unless she is starting something new, she refuses to follow trends. She has said before I think, that she doesn't follow trends. But sometimes there's nothing wrong with following trends for 1-2 songs and release them as singles to attract the attention of the GP and then lure them into the album where she can include songs which she is more comfortable with. If she wants another successful era, she has to really break out and do something that she wouldn't do otherwise. But if she doesn't want it then we'll get more MIAMs, which for many reasons didn't get much attentions and then ultimately we don't hear her sing that album live anymore. It'll probably get ignored like "Glitter" from now on. (Clarifying here that I'm not saying MIAM is a bad album, I'm just saying there isn't anything there that she didn't do before, except #Beautiful.) "Infinity" would go unacknowledged by her too if she wasn't bound by the Vegas contract to use it in promos. Plus that's her most recent song so she is using it in promos since she already ignores all the songs from MIAM, if she had to choose any other song, she'd have to pick one from Memoirs.

Re: Butterfly (66,411) (66,424) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ugh sorry I clearly wasn't thinking straight when I wrote that. (Sunday 18 September 2016; 9:33)

Re: Empire (66,391) (66,408) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter But she did remix "The One" with re-sung vocals. The remix was amazing and more laid back. Mariah's vocals were great too. You should check it out if you didn't already. (Saturday 17 September 2016; 22:05)

Re: Butterfly (66,395) (66,407) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter All these cool ideas will only come from Mariah's fans. LA would just re-release it with a "Butterfly 12th Anniversary" in gold writing. If they do it, they should take the suggestions you made. But do they really re-release stuff for 12th anniversaries? Isn't it usually 10th or 20th or 25th? I could be wrong but I'm here for the ideas you mentioned. Butterfly is a timeless album. So many classic. I will forever be mad that the gorgeous "Breakdown" video didn't get the attention it deserves. (Saturday 17 September 2016; 22:04)

The Rap Game (66,398) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Really enjoyed Mariah's appearance on the rap game. Here is the full version for those interested. I love that she gave little inputs (for example how to handle the mic and many more). Also liked seeing what kind of rapper she prefers. Overall it was a cute moment. Here is a separate video with an intro not included in the first video. She seems to be recording something. (Saturday 17 September 2016; 19:36)

Re: Article: Seriously, who is taking these sexy photos of Mariah? (66,376) (66,379) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Hey Betty, sorry I didn't understand which part you are responding to. The part about her being a straight A student or the one about her taking the picture? If you are talking about her taking the photos, I am almost certain it's her because I have seen this video a while back where Mishka is showing Mariah how to pose while Mishka is taking the picture. We also know how Mishka is the one posting and editing these photos so it's safe to assume she has that phone with her. As for not being in the pictures, Mariah hasn't been photographed much by the paparazzi for a while now and Mishka didn't post photos of herself on Mariah's account. But if you go to Stella's page, it's full of videos of Mishka always hanging on to Mariah for dear life. Touching her hair, sitting next to her, standing behind her at restaurants and so on. (Saturday 17 September 2016; 11:02)

Re: Empire (66,366) (66,367) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter No there isn't. The clip Andrew is talking about is basically the trailer with Mariah in it. You can't hear the song but I guess Andrew is giving his opinion based on the scene, where it doesn't look like it's an upbeat song. It could very well be a ballad since it's with Jamaal. But it can also be a song which starts of slow but picks up pace. Don't know. (Saturday 17 September 2016; 1:03)

Re: Grace Kelly / conspiracy theory Friday (66,363) (66,365) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter We don't even need conspiracy theories to know Mariah is around the wrong people. With James' connection with Scientology and Stella and her entire family being supporters of Donald Trump, it is quite obvious that Mariah is surrounded by shady people. People so different from the views and faith she holds or used to hold. Since these people surround Mariah 24/7 and is basically her shadow by now, I hope her faith is strong enough for her to not get sucked into these. (Saturday 17 September 2016; 0:35)

Re: Sasha's YouTube channel? (66,357) (66,364) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I agree, I saw some videos on Instagram and was thinking the same. Some of the stuff are even inappropriate for 5 year old. Like when Sasha and that shirtless guy does the Justin-Selena act and the guy comes up and says "let's go make out in the closet" and Sasha gets up and hugs him and agrees. Plus some of the videos are so weird, hahah, I mean al because I don't understand what the heck is going on, and then there are the straight up inappropriate stuff. I do hope Mariah knows that these are being uploaded. Being a celebrity kid, their lives will be always one where they can't have full privacy so at least they should be protected when they are in a private place, at least while they are young.

Empire (66,359) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I can't wait to hear what song MC cooked up for the show. At least we are getting 1 song this year. (Friday 16 September 2016; 19:52)

Re: Article: Seriously, who is taking these sexy photos of Mariah? (66,355) (66,356) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Stella wrote that because we keep saying Mishka should be in school instead of boozing it up. I don't believe the straight A student for 1 second because Mishka's grammar and spellings are full of errors. Her being a straight A student is as believable as Kylie Jenner's high school degree.

Re: Does Mariah get a double-standard? (66,351) (66,353) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The biggest problem about Stella is not only that she can't manage a star of Mariah's caliber, the problem is she has zero management experience in her resume. She was a reality show producer. She didn't manage anyone ever. (Friday 16 September 2016; 15:27)

Re: Article: Seriously, who is taking these sexy photos of Mariah? (66,331) (66,345) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mishka. (Friday 16 September 2016; 12:32)

Re: Agent provocateur (66,325) (66,327) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I'm pretty sure she doesn't. Mariah has had love for Agent Provocateur for ages now. I clearly remember her talking about their shoes back in the cribs episode where she said she has them in every color. The "slippers" according to Mariah hahah which were those delicate stilettos with matching pom poms. Then she even gifted Ellen some stuff from it back when she went there long time back.

Re: Empire music (66,319) (66,323) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Link please. (Thursday 15 September 2016; 18:56)

Re: Mariah Carey (66,308) (66,316) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I don't really know what to say about the vision situation, different people, different believes but one thing I will say is damn right Mariah deserves the Grammies to be renamed "Mariah Carey Awards" because this woman has single handedly paved the way for so many current stars and been inspiration. I have never heard the term "the new" for any other artist as much as I've heard people say "the new Mariah" and yet the Grammies paid her dust. It's disgusting really. (Thursday 15 September 2016; 12:07)

Article: Mariah Carey's brother in hiding (66,295) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter 'Mariah was subjected to devil-worshipping rituals as a child - and she endangered her twins by boozing." This is disgusting. Morgan really needs to get his own head checked at this point. To talk bad about his own sister is horrible, but to include Mariah's children in this drama is disgusting, malicious and shows his character. Now he is also involving his mother in this drama. Jeez. And how can Patricia involve Alison in devil worship rituals? Wasn't Alison with her dad almost all the time since the divorce? Morgan's stories are getting crazier and crazier by the day. Plus he is so extra with the "going into hiding" situation. Like what does he think Mariah is? The Mafia? Morgan stop embarrassing yourself and if you really want your sister back, this won't help.
