I think she is awesome. I like her songs better than Beyonce. She is like the Whitney Houston closest to this Generation :D

I believe she is Black and white. Is this true? She is really pretty and I really like this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzxR8OH-fDQ

I do notice though that people are trying to take credit for the positives in her. Like "She's pretty because she has white in her, if she didn't she would be ugly" and shit like that. And comments like " Whites are always better to be with than blacks because blacks are so rude". I mean What the crap? Whitney Houston was pretty and she could sing and she was black. I mean why does everything have to be an opportunity for people to say that their race is better. If someone is a pretty and famous artist with talent, and they happen to be your race, it doesn't mean shit. It doesn't confirm anything about your race being prettier or better. Because there are pretty and talented people in every race. Gosh, I hate how everything has to be an opportunity for racists to say there race is better >_>

No doubt she's mixed, but people in America have a habit of categorizing mixed black people as just black. She probably identifies more with her black side. Beyonce is also mixed, but she's not half and half, her mother has some French blood. Most African Americans have some white in them.

I don't know how Mariah is the most materialistic. If anyone in the music business was materialistic it would be rappers like the Soulja Boy guy. His music sucks. He is a disgrace to real rap.
ok let me just say this  

 I dont like dudes music, but he's not exactly a DISGRACE to rap when theres WAY worse shit out there, TRUST me, everybody forgot about DJ Unk? in hiphop, soulja boy has his place as dance music.no lyrics to think about, just music o dance to in a club. I mean sure his music sucks but you gotta respect his advertising game, using myspace and the internet in general to advertise and shit....and hes' 17 and aint never gotta work a day in his life again?  

 i mean sure he'll be forgot about ut you gotta respect what dude has done t get his money


yeah he's not a 100% disgrace but the problem is that ppl think thats what rap is about and always take the worst stuff around to put down rap  
so yeah I mean its cool he's made it but I kinda wish it was done different.

yeahi understand that

just saying kid aint all bad

yeah mariah carey is pretty cool yeah!

And yeah its funny how the race-obsessed ppl always try to pull mixed ppl on one siede or the other and try to get credit for her whiteness/blackness instead of giving her credit just for WHO she is as an individual,  

Her origins are pretty cool really


Mariah Carey was born in Huntington, Long Island, New York. She is the third and youngest child of Patricia (née Hickey), a former opera singer and vocal coach of Irish descent, and Alfred Roy Carey, an aeronautical engineer of Afro-Venezuelan descent.

I hate Mariah as a person. She's such a skank and one of the most materialistic celebrities. Even J. Lo thinks shes insane.

 She's got some freakin' voice though.


Eww. J.Lo?!?!!?! Like she's one to have an opinion? Madonna hates J.Lo., because J.Lo talks shit about everybody, including Madonna. SHE'S the real skank. If it wasn't for P. Diddy, there would be no J.Lo.  

She can't act, and she can't sing.

Mariah actually has a voice!


When push comes to shove, none of us here know Mariah or any of the other celebrities well enough to pass judgment on their character. Im just going by how she presented herself on TV and in interviews.
