mariah carey really let herself slide

[Tzar]

i remember when she was a nice singer and all that shit, now she's a stupid slut like beyonce knowles and shit.

[iceygirl]

whatever with her, but at least she writes all of her own shit

[Kid Presentable]

Beyonce's take on sexuality ( or her stylists take) is so contrived it's just not sexy. Like farting while masturbating, you know, intrinsically non-sexy?

It would seem that calling her a slut would be a compliment, at least it would mean she's getting it right...

I think she forgot that she's white.

Case in point: Jadakiss' "U Make Me Wanna" video with Mariah's crazy-ass singing the hook. She is the only non-black person in the video. However, I think the director tried to hide it by having her tanned like a carrot.

Not that there's anything WRONG with that... but it seems to be a recurring trend in her newer videos, eg. It's Like That.

You know what, I like Mariah Carey. Yes, Glitter was a laugher. But her older albums were part of a childhood that I love so much, and I associate her with those times.

She isn't really "white." Her dad is Venezuelan/African.
Just sayin.

Also, at least the woman is actually a talented singer, and the same for Beyonce. I'm not a fan of women trying to sell themselves via skankiness, but at least those two are also talented, unlike Britney Spears and other no-talent "sex symbols" like her. Ugh.

Whoa, really? I honestly had no idea. She looked pretty "white" in her early 90's vids. My bad. :o

Yeah, I guess her mother is Irish-American.
It's amazing the random stuff I've remembered from my junior high years as a fan of hers! :o (circa her self-titled album, Emotions, and Music Box...the pre-ho years, in other words ;) )

I think she's only maybe 1/4 black or something? More white than black, that's for sure. I think she just tries too hard to appear "ghetto" ish when she grew up in white neighborhoods...

[Tzar]

well what i meant was, like, using this as an example; my aunty and uncle are a christian family (go to church every sunday and stuff) and they used to love her stuff, well my aunty did, because she never sang about all this bling and materialistic shit.

but nowdays mariah is hungry for mo' gold and totally lost all 'morality' she had in her songs.

Well, she's half "not white." I don't really notice her trying to appear ghettoish. I more notice her trying to be a scantily clad diva, which is also annoying.

Yeah, her songs are pretty stupid now. It's kind of embarrassing, but I actually saw her in concert a couple years ago. :eek: My friend won tickets and wanted me to go with her. Since I was a fan of her in the early days and it was free, I figured, what the hell. Anyway, in a way, it was impressive because she does have an amazing voice. But it was also sort of pathetic, because she changed her outfit like 8 times and had like 20 dancers and back up people. I just think it's sad she feels like she needs all that, and the slutty image, when really she could get by on her voice alone. It seems like she's insecure or something.
