God has been looking after this woman her entire life. Her songs were sent to her from the angels above and her musical talent was what saved her.
What Bible do you people read?
Amen ❣️
Wow.........what planet are you living on???!!!!!!
And I'll bet God loves getting a looksie at those fake jugs hanging out ALL THE TIME!!!
Simon5005 God loves Mariah that’s why she’s successful and happy and you’re under an interview about her hating LOL
With or without Tommy, Mariah was destined to be successful. Period!!
But... if she didn't met Tommy... She might have discovered by someone who truly appreciated her...
And she would have risen above every else. Sadly... She didn't met too many good people.
Even till today, she still being given a hard time with her lip sync despite that everybody else is Lip Sync.
She is truly an underrated human being.
Austin Thov Mariah was never a underrated person.
@@bryan11981 She is...
Because lots of people comparing her to her old days. And those that don't compare to old days, they compare her to Celine Dion... despite Mariah have nodules.
Having sold most album, having most #1 single, she still only worth 500 millions while Celine worth 800 millions... and Celine always have sold out shows while Mariah's shows had to cancelled sometime cuz not enough ticket sells.
So yes, she is underrated... because alot of people couldn't see beyond the surface.
She such a legend, and she deserve so much more... Despite being a sweetheart and a very humble person, many new artist didn't respect like Demi Lovato and Nicky Minaj, so that's all already said just how underrated she is.
Amen to that! Tommy was just the lucky one who discovered her first. That's all.
I can't say for sure but being his wife helped her a lot, he gave her the best producers, paid huge sums of money to market her aggressively, protected her massively too. He negotiated for the best of every thing for her because of his power and clout in the industry.
I think she was his muse, he more or less opened the Sony music vault for her and got the best in the business to build her.
Yes she has the talent but not too many fantastic singers will ever reach the height she did. After she left Tommy he withdrew his support and her career started gradually slowing down, even her reputation started taking a hit, her meltdown, her nonsense relationship with Eminem who had a drug problem, they threw insults at each other with songs, her marriage with Nick Cannon then the divorce, then the convoluted romance with the Australian billionaire and eventual court case that followed, the tacky disastrous reality show,then another court case with her manager, then the toy boy back ground dancer boyfriend ppllllzzz too many tabloid trash stories.
Why Celine is much more successful than her, Celine's husband knows the business inside out like Tommy and they were a formidable team till he died of throat cancer.
Truth be told, there would not have been any Mariah Carey without Tommy Mottola, yes she had the talent but there is a lot more that goes on behind the scenes we don't know about.
Talent is one thing but if she didn't that have that massive machinery behind her she would have lasted.
Nobody could write all those amazing songs without being vulnerable.
melani mcready agree!
You nailed it!!
Mariah is not the DIVA that people think she is, actually she is a vulnerable and sweet person who struggle in life with many difficult times but had the courage to be better and made an amazing career with her talent! 💖
Mariah may in fact be the world's last true diva, and she seems proud of it, too. As she told Oprah, she defines the word based on its historical and musical origins from the opera world. It may be a theme in her memoir, and I am all about checking it out. 🦋
Beyond that, she not only has an "amazing" career, she is an unparalleled force.
@@barbalicious.310 I wish people didn't have a negative idea of the word diva because in the opera realm it's not negative at all. It actually means the top singer/ the soprano voice
girl hush...you don't know her. I hate when these people be talking like they know these stars personally
@@egyptian_thoth i couldn't care less if you don't agree! Don't like my comment? Just move on with your unnecessary comment!
I had no idea she wrote her own songs! I am so impressed with her talents and her strengths as a human being! New found respect for Mariah.
Yes she wrote them all. Even songs she wrote when she was a teenager are now Billboard number ones. She also wrote a lot for other artists. She really doesn't get enough credit for that. As a HUGE Mariah fan, I loved reading your comment!
this is why i feel so all alone especially now because there's never discussion regarding her songwriting in an academic setting the way the other great songwriters have. it's always her incredible voice or her outrageous showbiz life.
Well, most of the time - generally speaking - it is very much a collaborative effort. If you consider lyrics aswell as music and production, then for sure! But even if it's only about the lyrics, most of the time there is at least one other person that helps them complete the lyrics when they are stuck, writes whole verses, bridges, and/ or choruses, helps them leave stuff out or remodel the song completely.
It depends on what you call "writing a song (on your own)".
I get annoyed be people in her position claiming all the praise and recognition for themselves. Gaga, has at times done the same. Proclaiming loudly:"I have written all the songs on this album". You find out later that at least a few songs were "given to her". And that she did have co-authors, as can be seen in the song credits. And I hate when they fail to address the group effort that goes into it or don't acknowledge the contributions of others, the help they have gotten. I believe it is part of an image of power, talent, ability, skill, amd independence, that they need to create to be recieved better and sell better. Or tat they want to create People want to admire someone who has it all and can do it all. Being able to "do it all" is also part of the justification for their fame, fortune and status. And it is somehow the job requirement of a pop star, the societal role of an international superstar, if you will, to embody this image.
Songwriters Hall of Fame Honoree 2020. There are conducted studies that say Mariah's songwriting has the smartest lyrics and has a unique way with words that allows her not to fall in repetition to actually make a simple song.
@@johanneshalberstadt3663 yeah. mostly with walter afanasief or jermaine dupri. but most of the time, it's her with the lyrics and melody. she guides walter with the chords actually. it's just how she was marketed. as a singing diva. and now she's turning it back to her as a songwriter and a musician. which i personally been waiting for a long time.
You can tell she is a good mom, does very age appropriate things with her kids.
Many women deal with jealousy from their own mothers. It's one of the saddest and worst things ever.
Yup
True
yup. I'm a victim.
Mariah's resilience is so inspiring!
Gale asked some really good questions in such a short segment.
Was looking for this comment! Agreed 1000%!!!
Better than Oprah imo. No disrespect to Oprah.
I thought the same!!. And those were very personal questions but asked in a sensitive manner, didn't feel out of place.
Planned ahead questions lol
I’m loving 2020 Mariah Carey, she’s so open & raw now.. I have to be honest I didn’t like her because I thought she was a diva, but after hearing her heartbreaking story i know now that it’s just an act & that she uses it as a defense mechanism. I’ll definitely be purchasing this book. ❤️
She's a diva because she's the furthest thing from a diva 💜
Thank you Jennifer! Well put! Mariah = 🔥
Nikki Law maybe you’re just broke lol and also filled with hatred as I can see..
Nikki Law lol yeah ok 😂
book is soooooo good
Her mother says “ you can only hope to be half the singer I am”.... Wow! I always had the impression they were closer and that they just struggled growing up. She was honest in saying she had to be the Mom a lot but never elaborated. I’m shocked by the revelation, but she wasn’t comfortable talking about it until now. I makes me recall times ( I’m a singer too) my stepfather or mother made fun of my voice or my appearance. I can certainly relate & I hope Mariah can fully heal from all the trauma.
Imo, this was an example of how parents sometimes say things that stick to their child's soul without realizing it...
One of our wishes as children, is that we hope that our parents are proud of our own happiness. But instead, we get projections of their insecurities passed on to us. I hope Mariah and her mom give grace and allow room to heal and grow closer together 💕
Like she said that was a singular comment - not a common practice and we don't know what brought it about. If she was trying to train Mariah to take care of her voice and Mariah didn't want to hear it - I can see how that would happen. It's not to say Mariah sucks, but she's going to eventually hurt her voice.
Her mother was an alcoholic growing up it probably happened then
I love how real she is sounding these days! Like kinda loosing the “diva act” even tho she is but it just reminds me how human she is!
That's our Mariah
Same! It’s like watching the 90s Mariah. I’m not really a fan of her doing the “diva acts”. I love her like this.
Lowkey I feel like the diva persona is almost like an armor for her.
y’all annoy me 🙄
She got rid off that toxic Russian manager. She was a bad influence.
2020 Mariah is so much more grounded, mature and spilling wisdom. The Stella Era Mimi was one searching for acceptance in all the wrong places and she looked like a walking mid life crisis. Now, she's blossomed into a veteran diva with such an important story to tell.
I hated the docuseries she did with Stella. It made her look new in the music industry that was just trying to figure out life.
Preach
You wanted know who's Truly Grounded and Mature.......those families of people who Died of COVID 19.
@@jenniferlorence1950 u forgot to take your meds?
@@beszedits YOUR MOMMA.
I've always felt her music while she was going through difficult times, she was helping girls like me get through difficult times.... The irony!!!
@@Fourwindsofsuccess 💕💕
Mariah is so multitalented.
Love a true legend , these trolls on here posting lies can kick rocks . One thing I’ve always love about her she’s a fighter .
she gives us everything these weeks. so, tomorrow we should pay her some respect by buying the book & the album on Friday too
I will be buying both, I just have to wait until the 9th when I get paid.
I definitely will be buying. Mariah is a queen.
I’m buying multiple copies of each
Both on pre-order. I’m so looking forward to both ❤️
Mariah doesn’t need anymore money.
Mariah Carey is on of the best songwritters ever...and for me she is the greatest vocalist ever too...She is a legend and a global icon all around the world...no more to say
I’m so glad Mariah got the courage to put herself out like this. The media and general public have scrutinized and judged her for years, never seeming to understand the depth of who she is along with her music. I’ve always felt that Mariah has been extremely overlooked, so I’m definitely excited to read this memoir! It will be a defining moment in her career. 🦋
mariah shld receive ALL her flowers while shes still with us. we have to acknowledge our legends when they can be there to see it!
Mariah is the greatest of all time. She's the idol of all the greats. Her impact in legacy in music and pop culture will forever live on
The idol of all the greats? Hm, what? More like her idols are the greats. Saying she's *the* greatest of all time is such a stretch, too. You sound like a deluded fanatic.
@@drewgab3172 Or he can read this history books or awards she's received. Artist of the Millennium. She was so ahead of her competition she got the best selling artist of the 90's award a year early. She created Hip - POP which everyone and their brother uses to get hits now and the singers of the past 20 years try to sing like her which are all things we've never seen in music history. Whether you like it or not.
Mariah legend
MARIAH IS A FREAKING LEGEND. NO ONE ELSE COMES CLOSE IN TERMS OF HER SUCCESS. MARIAH IS THE INFINITY OF SUCCESS
Such a inspirational person
Hi haters, why are you here so early?
coz they cant wait to mourn for their mothers' death
@Tony Montana ? Are you trying to say that doesn't matter?
I like how she opens up about her problems and it's sad how it affected her. I really happy that she is in a better place and a better mother then the one she has.
She looks absolutely beautiful like Rainbow era. She is such an amazing mother to her kids! Now I feel I understand her on a different level. I mean as a fan I've always tried to understand her especially since a lot of what she went through as a kid and growing up also resonates with me but now when I listen to her music I really listen to the lyrics and what she expresses it tells a whole different story. I feel a new kind of connection to her music now that I never experienced before. I see the strong, determined and resilient woman she has become.
Well said
I didn't like that the interviewer said being biracial in a white neighborhood is no big deal today. Its probably easier than the 70s but unfortunately kids can still be mean and biracial kids can still feel the lyrics of Outside today unfortunately.
Both of my sisters are half Mexican and half White. One of my sisters doesn't speak Spanish yet looks a little Hispanic. My other sister speaks Spanish yet looks European White. Both were accepted by White peers but rejected by Hispanic peers. My daughter looks Hispanic yet speaks no Spanish. She was picked on by her White peers AND Hispanic peers. Interestingly, all 3 had the toughest time in junior high and high school. Before and after, no issues.
@@cosettelaplante699 Being Mexican isn't incongruous with being White... The fatherland of Hispanic people is also in Western Europe, so how does one look Hispanic but not European White?
@@briannab4037 obviously you're a part of the problem. Why can't you be encouraging? Signed a multi racial woman. P.S. unless you live it, because you are biracial or multi racial, you really don't know!
@@jessicazimmerman9627 Be encouraging about what? I don't really know what you're referring to, sorry.
Brianna B you sound ignorant and stupid. Sorry
Whew the haters seem to be more eager to come watch the Queen than the lambs lol
Shes right, she's been expressing her experiences and pain through her songwriting. So many messages...Gayle you may have all the records, but do you listen to the words in the songs?
*This is her 3rd TV appearance for this era but she didn't promote her album. Epic/Columbia/Sony works hard, But Andy Cohen's publishing company works harder 😭😂*
Maybe there will be an ad in the book for it.
@Raimundo91 yeah but I want her album to be successful just like her memoir. I hope she will promote it after her memoir because that album is also a gem, an underrated one
She apprated in Colbert just to talk about her album and not really the book. The book was like a side mention. It's true that the album isn't being promoted but what album is now at days!!. It's all about promoting singles anyway.
It may not be considered an 'album' by the label since this stuff has all be pre-recorded. She's just releasing old material so it's not seen as new work. Therefore, there wouldn't be a budget for it. It's just being released. News of her book is spreading news of the album to the fans who want it.
Imagine being Mariah's mom at this point, being exposed to the entire world as a jealous mother 😌
She couldn’t use her full blown whiteness to excel in the world/industry and her youngest biracial daughter who got bullied at home and school,turned into the best selling female artist of all time.
First we should hear her side of the story.
@@oo1straub665 her mom was disowned for marrying a black man! so you can imagine why she is the way she is
im so happy that mariah is open to being vulnerable and honest about her dark past. us lambs know what she has been through, but all of this new information is taking it to the next level. my heart breaks for all that she has been through, but i really pray that God continues to heal her and mold her into the strong and inspiring woman she is ❤
The Mariah we see now is the Real her. I just love it that after the memoir was released she became transparent and more straightforward on what she wants to say. A freaking QUEEN😩❤👑
Yes,we can now see the essence of her,I think that's all she ever wanted to be understood and seen🦋🐑
THE QUEEN🥺🦋 WE LOVE YOU💜
I’m so proud of Mariah. She’s always been my true inspiration and I so relate to her. I wish her so much success and love.
She's been trough so much hurt in her life. From the little girl back in the day to the woman she is now and she just keeps on going. We need to cherish her while she is still around!!!! Mariah was right when she said: "why do you think so many stars die so young ? The music industry is cruel and hard".
It's through so much. You are welcome.
Rachel Zol your life must suck very bad. This is so sad smh.
Gosh kids can be so viscous. But I knew the N word hurt people and never would say it. I wonder why those kids were so hateful? None of my friends were like that as a child. Crazy!
I don’t know why some kids are like that, for them it was probably a joke and they were probably laughing at her. I was bullied at school and I don’t why some kids were so mean to me, I was always short, I remember this one day when these bullies held me in their arms and start running around with me, then they threw me on the floor, I bruised my arm on the wall when I fell, and they were there laughing. People say kids are pure, but some are evil.
My daughter was called the n word. And she's part Native American.
Those kids were taught to hate. It starts at home.
I feel like her mom should have homeschooled her so she didn’t have to be bullied as often
Yeah, kids can really be vicious... Most of the viciousness stems from unresolved emotional issues, I think.
We are sooo lucky to have this woman in our life's ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ahh she’s a beautiful human being inside and out. Always loved her since being a child myself.
She comes from so much pain.
"Don't worry about everything that's gonna come your way but brace yourself" I love you 💖
She is great! She and MJ got me through my childhood .. Oh and Whitney can’t forget her ..
Besides being a superstar she sure is a supermom! Loved what she said in regards of her kids,beautiful 🙌🙏 She's an amazing woman, God bless her and her beloved kids ☝️🌹🦋💙
I can’t with her “you knows...” love you Mariah. You are such a strong woman you deserve everything.
Wdym you can't?
Love you Mariah. Lamb forever
I love Mariah Carey 💖🦋🌈👑
I've got to get this book. The biggest shock for me was the comment her mother made to her. That kind of stuff sticks with a person, and I bet her mom wishes she could take it back.
I love Mariah. Grew up with her really and I will always be a fan. There's no one else like her.
If I'm not quite good enough
Or somehow undeserving of
A mother's love
You could have had the decency
To give me up
Before you gave me life
I knew those lyrics weren’t just written for the movie,it makes sense now
God’s love conquers All!
Precious Peach42 Amen🙏🏽
@@perrip2355 it all makes sense now.
Mariah Carey is the The Greatest Vocalist that has EVER Lived & The Voice of an Angel - Mariah Carey The Queen of Vocals hits the highest whistle notes, she's a stradivarius, a tour de force and a magnum opus.

What’s with her question “would you be this successful if it wasn’t for Tommy”? He does not define her. I didn’t like that.
I was just about to type that!! So rude!
MC responded brilliantly (6:00). And Tommy isn't doing such a bad job with his statements to the press (7:25) as coming through as sincere, if not only professional.
It sounded super sexist but I think she did it for the greater good: she wanted to have that on record so Tommy himself and anyone else would hear that Mariah Carey is Mariah Carey because of Mariah Carey lol
Tommy it's just being the phony that he is. Had been the ultra powerful man that he once was at Sony, deep down there I still think he thinks she wouldn't have made without him 🙄
Answer is yes...
And she had record companies after her when she signed with Tommy!
I love Mariah,powerful,very talented,her beauty from within!!!! Gold!
Just a beautiful person. This is the mimi that has always been.
wow i'm so shocked about Patricia :X this book is gonna be sooo GOOD. can't wait to read it
Me too, just by their performance together I really thought she was a different person, but oh well
I didn’t know these things about her mom either . I just knew she was supportive or seemed to be
Just because she said one hurtful thing doesn’t change they had and a still do have a great relationship. Think bigger people
One of the best singers of all time ...Really
Love her always.. god bless her❤️❤️
5:58 Damn Mariah is soo inspiring!
Mariah is like a sister to all of us. Love her!
Now this is how we do interviews darling.
Come on Gayle...you knew darn well her mom was an opera singer, because her family was on your BFF's show. Much love to MiMi & her amazing talents!!!💙🙏🏻💜
Her memoire is truly one of the best memoires Ive ever read.
Love Mariah
I'm so excited love u Mariah!!
Mariah is highly talented and one of the best artists I have listened to
How you don't know Patricia was a singer?? Do better gayle
She knew it. She Did it on purpose to let the whole world know about it. That's what you called an interview
She didn’t know but Oprah did.
They’re best friends, so that’s puzzling🤨
@@ciarrajohnson3849 do you know everything your best friend knows? I'm certain you don't.
However, you can also act like you didn’t know to see what that person divulges, which I do often
I love Mariah I hope to see her sing someday
Patricia Carey could only hope that she could have half the impact Mariah Carey had contributed to the entirety of the music world
I’ve always liked Mariah but after reading the book I’m in awe of her. She truly is a remarkable woman and a freaking legend. Nothing but love and respect too her ❤️❤️🥺
Love her. She's such a diva!
I just now am finding out that I admire her.
I truly LOVE this woman and will continue to do so forever
Mariah Carey gives all of us hope. If she was able to overcome her obstacles (absent dad, jealous mum, jealous siblings, stupid husbands), we can all overcome our obstacles.
Aww bless her shes an amazing person and so strong,
Every artist is called the greatest selling artist of all time.
I wasn't a super big fan but after learning about her life, she is one incredible woman. Not to discount Miriah, but her life and success reminds my of Shania's life story and success.
Mariah you are a great mother to your kids
I love how she’s so real and never changed throughout the years!! She’s a true angel honestly I respect her so much !!
her book is amazing i love it
This book scared me , the friend enemy, her husband, her mother, her grandma. Wow!
This week I Literally had a dream about Mariah and Steve Wonder singing a song that doesn’t even exist in this reality that brought me to 😭. She is a beautiful soul. Love this woman.
Record the song baby, show the song to the world jaja
The queen!
Beautifully said,always so Classy and beautiful
She's such an amazing talent. Becareful because without a supportive family there will always be snakes circling. Some times we have to be strong alone.
Great interview
Lamb 4 Life ... love Mimi... praying for her and her mom... the siblings that she calls ex’s, I have no thoughts for. Also it wonderful she is able to co parent successfully with Nick.
I absolutely love her book. I've read it twice that how good it is
Love Mariah! She is the best along with Sade. This interview is awesome and she is real. She went through so much. God has protected her in soooo many ways.
GREAT INTERVIEW
I like what she said about her children a lot 🙏🙏
Such an absolutely amazing soul! 🎶💟🎤💟🎶
But I guess with she not embarrass about her situation. She not the only one that has gone through a situation of domestic violence sad to say they still are children going through it. But she does do her part and help the fortunate. And that's what I like about her. And thank god the she has healed and gotten these things off her shoulder. Like she says Things happen. Luv ya! Always Mariah!
I love her and her strength
Sometimes your own family are the ones who can hurt you the most 💔😭 the toxicity, the trauma, the words can cut u deep inside
❤Mariah is too young to be called a legend but she's definitely on the steps to throne. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
6:00 law of attraction
I cannot wait for my book to be delivered tomorrow 😍
Same!!
Same💯🦋👏🏽‼️❤️
I love the fact that you Mariah have become mature and composed. I am happy you made this introspective work.
19 number #1 hits and a 5 octave vocal range and she wrote all her songs. Mariah doesn't get the credit she Deserves
There would definitely be a Mariah without Tommy. PERIODT
I love the box and note she sent. How amazing!
