The Official Mariah Carey Thread

[explodingbird]

What is there to say about this woman that hasn't been said? We all know her, even if not all of us love her - she's a musical legend, with one of the most talked-about and memorable voices (for better or for worse, depending on your taste) in the history of music. She's broken a few records, she's flopped, she's risen back up, she's lost and regained fans, she's grown worryingly orange the past few years...

She's Mariah, the 21st century R&B diva. I'd say pop diva, but Madonna or Kylie can have one of those, they've earned it.

So, I'm a huge fan of hers (although I... hate the way she looks these days, damn those implants. I long for the 1991-1997 period. She was beautiful then). She's coming off the massive success of The Emancipation of Mimi and apparently ready to send us a new album next spring (awesome. That was fast compared to last time). Anyone else wanna discuss her, good or bad? Discuss, then. But no flaming amongst yourselves. And try to keep any insults (because I know some people hate hate hate her) short of outright bashing (don't want the thread closed, people!), mmmkay?
