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".

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)

New interview (66,038) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mariah is talking about taking her tour to Mexico in this new interview. There is a part around the beginning where they ask her about Luis Miguel and at one point she talks about how she used to spend a lot of time there and started saying what seemed like "it was one of the best times of her life" but instead went for "it was a really good time of my life". (Friday 9 September 2016; 21:17)

Re: Latest IG post (66,027) (66,036) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter B dahlin' you know I hate Stella and I have been very vocal about it despite the backlashes but honestly Mariah is a 46 year old woman, a mother and a business woman who has been in this industry for almost 3 decades, if she keeps getting influenced so easily, that's a problem. As for Stella, that woman, I can't. Seriously who goes around telling random strangers "I've had a new boob job"? And yes they are strangers whether they are lambs or not. As Mariah is growing older, she is losing her classy self and embracing the trashy route. It won't help her at all. (Friday 9 September 2016; 20:26)

Liron (66,033) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter According to Liron, Mariah will be involved with her social media and personally join in on conversations about what songs fans want to hear in the next SSFT leg, so Marissa, that's a step towards your petition. Congrats. Although it's yet to be seen how involved she will actually be but hey. (Friday 9 September 2016; 18:37)

Bath tub post (66,031) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The "selfie" pic is too much. Remember this is the same Mariah that once was slightly offended that people thought she actually took off her clothes during the "MTV Cribs" bathroom moment. Now she is actually naked and willingly posting it on social media for millions to see. Plus look at the fake eyelashes, horrible, this is what makes her eyes look weird and small. Whereas naturally she is so beautiful. Why are there even people with her while she is taking a bath? She complains about Roc and Roe not letting her even take a bath some and yet she has people taking pictures complete with selfie lights while she is taking a bath? Does Stella and Mishka follow her there too? (Friday 9 September 2016; 17:48)

Re: Wednesday meet and greet drama (65,996) (65,998) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter That is horrible. And to say to a fan that "Mariah doesn't like them and just tolerates them" is the worst thing. I think I saw this Barbie on instagram, whoever the fan is, if I remember correctly got it made from this other instagram page and he was very happy to be able to see Mariah soon (I saw the post a while back) and give it to her. I don't think that's a big demand. I hope he gets an apology from her team. (Thursday 8 September 2016; 21:29)

Re: Wednesday meet and greet drama (65,982) (65,994) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Wait, what drama did the fan cause? (Thursday 8 September 2016; 19:46)

Re: Liron (65,961) (65,963) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter In addition to what Shezz said, Liron's Twitter is "LironD". Don't know if it has her pictures but you can check it out. (Wednesday 7 September 2016; 16:09)

Re: Extra interview (65,959) (65,962) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter That is actually a good point. I forgot about it. I guess I am just scared that she might trash all her work of her idea gets stolen and then it will be delay after delay. I hope she can keep her project a secret until it's time for the release. (Wednesday 7 September 2016; 16:06)

Who's the bigger diva? (65,953) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Just found this clip too, and they ask the cast of "Empire" who is the bigger diva? Mariah or Cookie? And Taraji just went ahead and praised Mariah a lot. I'm glad these are being addressed head on. Leaves absolutely zero space for drama and rumors. We need all the good promo we can get. (Wednesday 7 September 2016; 1:34)

Extra interview (65,950) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I absolutely loved her interview with Mario Lopez, here is the link. She looked so humble and excited to be there. Usually she looks like she's tired and not interested, but in this interview she's practically bouncing in her chair, looking excited and all. It's so cute. I love that she was answering him excitedly and that she said she is working on songs, after which she will go on the road to "reveal" these. Which gives me some hope that maybe they have a good promo planned. She was asked about The Weeknd again and she answered it nicely, without giving anything away (ugh it scares me that The Weeknd is being brought up in so many of her interviews, because as much as I would love a collaboration, I'm scared JLo might rush a song with The Weeknd and release it before Mariah, which would lead to Mariah trash the Weeknd collaboration and we'd never get to hear it). Overall this is the Mariah I'd like to see in interviews. Where she sounds excited about her projects and she has the "diva moments" but it's balanced out with her sweet and humble nature. I also love that she explicitly said "Taraji is the star of the show". Because there were rumors before and there might be new rumors in the days to come that Mariah was difficult to work with or they might try to spin it like Mariah was hogging the spotlight, so it's great that it came straight out of her mouth that Taraji is the star of the show. Throws the whole "Mariah is difficult" thing right out the window. (Wednesday 7 September 2016; 1:28)

Re: Duet With Ja Rule prevented a sophomore slump (65,931) (65,935) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mariah's team would never be able to come up with such a clever thing. The only thing Stella can do is yell at tabloids saying "f**k off, lose my number" and that too when the attack comes her way. They can say crap about Mariah, that doesn't bother Stella as long as no one is questioning Stella and her daughter's intentions. (Tuesday 6 September 2016; 11:39)

Clevver News (65,925) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter So they did a segment on 15 scrapped music videos, after Britney's original "Make Me" music video was scrapped. Anyways I was surprised to see they actually included Mariah's "Underneath The Stars" music video at number 4, because not many people know the song and more importantly not many people know that there was a music video shot. Plus Clevver hardly ever talks about Mariah unless it includes other current artists like her collaboration with Justin and her feud with Ariana and all. Mainly because their core audience is the younger generation. (Tuesday 6 September 2016; 1:39)

Re: Mariah Carey fala de Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga, Mad (65,845) (65,848) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I always thought she was talking about TEOM. I didn't see the interview when it aired. I saw it years later, I thought she was talking about TEOM as I thought the interview was during the time Mariah and Madonna had an album out during 2005-06. Thanks for clarifying it's for TMB. I think Mariah and Madonna can both acknowledge that they have paved the way for so many artists, even ones we see today. It's nice seeing them have respect for each other. (Saturday 3 September 2016; 2:57)

Re: Michael Jackson cover (65,799) (65,804) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I have been wanting her to cover "You Are Not Alone" for ever. Another one would be "Will You Be There" or "Speechless". I also really love the song "Butterflies" and MC loves it too, so that would be nice too. (Friday 2 September 2016; 1:23)

Re: MTV (65,748) (65,756) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ya I think it would be such a great PR stunt, and lambs can spare me the "MC doesn't need PR stunts, she's above that", because lately she has been pulling a lot of random PR stunts either ways. So yes it would be great if they'd just do it and get it over with. Also this paves the way for the next #1 song "I don't know her (she's forgetful remix) featuring Jennifer Lopez".
