Billboard Celebrates 1000 #1s, including Mariah's 18! Billboard Magazine is celebrating 1000 Hot 100 #1s, and as you know, Mariah holds a record-breaking 18 of them! In an article dedicated to the '90s #1s, Mariah is described as the decade's undisputed hitmaker: The '90s
The bump of hip-hop and thrash of grunge may dominate our sonic memory of the '90s, yet the hits that bookended the decade were soaked in smooth. [...] While the album charts heralded the rise of "alternative" through hip-hop's spreading popularity and rock's rediscovered grit, the singles chart walked a different beat. Among the No. 1s, there was no Nirvana, no Dr. Dre or Snoop Dogg, no Pearl Jam, no Wu-Tang Clan. There was, however, Mariah Carey. Lots and lots of Mariah Carey. It's only fitting that the decade's undisputed hitmaker would also be the first legitimately new star of the '90s. Holdovers from the '80s dominated the first half of 1990. Then, in early August, Carey began a four-week run with "Vision of Love," the first of a record 14 No. 1s for the decade, including "One Sweet Day," her holiday season collaboration with Boyz II Men in 1995. "Day" spent 16 weeks at No. 1 and the two acts' dual success seemed apropos; during the '90s, nearly one of every six weeks saw either artist with the top single. Their success was a stunning sign of how far R&B had come since the relative dol-drums of the '80s. By decade's end, some familiar faces still held on. There was Carey, of course, with Jay-Z riding shotgun on her late-1999 single "Heartbreaker". Source: MariahCarey.com

| Why Mariah?
If you saw the Google and Yahoo alerts, you may have noticed that in all articles talking about the party given by de dictator's son, it's Mariah, more than any other who is quoted in the titles/subjects. Why? Go figure, maybe 'cause she's the biggest star. Like I sais yesterday, the media's hypocrisy is at its best. They didn't talk about Mickey Rourke who plays in a movie produced by one of the dictator's son, nor did they talk about Susan Sarandon's daughter who will also play in a movie financed by the same son, nor the Hollywood movie company which received 100 million dollars. Maybe you will say I haven't a point as they were all paid like Mariah. But what about this, you will recognise some people who didn't get paid, but where there only 'cause they were friends with the sons! But the hypocrit medias don't talk about it, but it's true as of earlier this month, the politic situation wasn't the same. Some fans will blame Mariah, some not, for the ones who blame her, will you walk as of now? 'Cause the gas you use for your car can also come from that country. Posted on February 25 |

| Hypocrisy of the media
I didn't plan to post this on my site, but since it's everywhere now and in all languages, it would also be hypocritical of me to not refer to it. Even if we are all aware of the atrocities happening in Libya, I will not mix politics and fan site infos, 'cause a fan site isn't meant to take position. We didn't wait Wikileaks to know Mariah sang for
one of the dictator's son, it was posted on all fan sites with pictures
and lil' vidéos at the time. Mariah did her artist job, she
was paid to sing and she did it, was she only aware of the "activities"
of the person she was singing for? Maybe her people didn't even know.
Was it right, was it wrong? It's not up to us to judge! However, what shocks me, is Lionel Ritchie who went to Libya on invitation of the dictator himself, to honor the 20th anniversary of the resistance against the United States. Why don't the medias criticize all Presidents, governments who have received or visited the dictator and sold him weapons he now uses against demonstrators, weird huh...... Posted on February 24 |
| Nursery
A few days ago, an article came out claiming Mariah and Nick spent a lot of money on the twins nursery (who can blame them), but every article added its little touch and it soon became gold everywhere, diamond-encrusted iPods, and so on. A rep for Carey calls the story “absurd.” ( GossipCop ) Posted on February 23 |

I received many e-mails telling me MDJ confirmed the songs registered with BMI were fake. Seriously, do you even check to who you send your e-mails? Of course I know it's fake and I already posted
it.

Mariah tweeted: "I start writing for my new album this week-but its just the beginning" Posted on February 22 |
| We need you on this one guys, let's go!!!!!!!
You guys have probalby seen Mariah's tweet where she said she's working on a new fragrance. My good friend Ash from MariahConnection and myself came up with an idea Looking at the number of tweets to Mariah after she tweeted this message it is clear that her male fans want her to release a unisex fragrance. Therefore we thought the fans should go direct to Elizabeth Arden and suggest this idea. The best way to do this would be to tweet Elizabeth Arden or post a message on their Facebook page. If a large enough number of fans do this we are sure that Elizabeth Arden will approach Mariah with the idea. Let's go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| Many questions about the game
Many questions came in about the "case" and that game, maybe it wasn't clear enough yesterday. Let's call him the case (after looking so many long hours to sort this mess out, I can't see his name anymore  ).
So, like I said yesterday, the "case" was playing a virtual game called
"Platinum Life" (which you can find here
or here),
in that game, the more you virtually achieve, the more you can brag on
your Facebook page. If you guys check his Facebook page and older
comments on his wall, you may have noticed his "Platinum Life" level went
up
a lot each time he virtually worked with an artist.
Unfortunately he didn't make the difference anymore between what was the game and what's real, so he registered his remixes on BMI. Hope it's more clear now Oh, before I forget, if you guys want to play the game, don't register your songs on BMI...................... Posted on February 21 |
For once, we can vote for ourselves 
Yesterday, MariahsNo1Lamb tweeted me the Battle of the Fans link (but I was too busy with the "case"). So, here it is: Battle of the Fans: Does your diva has the best fans? Prove it! Let's vote
for us!!!!!

| Game over!
I can't believe how many fans fell in the trap!
Only problem with that game is that some people forget it's just a game! Anyway, it's over, it's taken care of now! Additional note: When someone wants to
record and copyright a mixtape/album based on songs/samples from an artist,
his work may not appear in the artist's discography.

"Always Be My Babies" - Fan Gift For Mariah's
Babies Shower
Fans all over the world are welcome to participate in an exciting fan initiative. As you all know, Mariah and Nick are expecting twins - a boy and a girl!

To participate, please write a short letter (no more than 2-3 paragraphs) addressed to the twins! Please note that the letters should not be addressed to Mariah herself. We want this book to be unlike any other, one that the babies will be able to read one day, to be able to learn about their mother from the lambs' point of view, and what she means to her fans. E-mail us your letter at TeamMariah@mariahcarey.com, along with your name, country and any pictures you may wish to include (such as an album cover or an event you may refer to in your letter.) Deadline for submissions is February 28, 2011 at 5:00pm EST. Source: MariahCarey.com

| Riddle....
Now that Mariah and Nick are close to get their babies a lot of fans are trying for the fun to guess the names of the twins. We had a topic going on a while ago on our forum and most of us think Roy (Mariah's dad name) could be a middle name for the boy. Then, Nick said it would be unique names and we kept guessing. ForTheRecord on our forum has a very good memory and remembered Nick said during the B. Scott interview that the name of the kids would be a "M" and a "N" moment. So, my fellow Kinou came up with "Marick" and "Nickiah", that's indeed unique! By the way, in that same interview Mariah said
she would like to have twins and her wish became reality Posted on February 15 |
| The-Dream wants to work with everyone but
doesn't quote Mariah for his new album
After he called it quit several times and after shutting down his Twitter account due to critics of Ciara fans and people who insulted him for cheating on his wife, Terius (The-Dream) plans a new album and says to MTV: "This album is gonna have more features, which is unique for me, 'cause I usually don't carry a lot of features," he told MTV News. "I'm calling it out now. I'm cashing in my chips. I'm gonna try to get everybody, Wayne, Kanye, Jay, Drake, Mary, anybody that I've worked with or loaned a hand to, I'm trying to get on my album." Notice how he didn't quote Mariah, maybe he's

| "Save the Day"
Before everyone get excited about the possible collabs for that song written by Mariah and JD, we need to keep in mind the names of the artists quoted by JD are probably the ones he would eventually like to have on it., except for Mariah, JD and Anthony Hamilton no other artist is confirmed at the moment. The production was gonna take place in several studios in LA this weekend, so we have no idea yet who was there and who not. For exemple, Taylor Swift is in Asia since Feb. 5 and is still there, unless she recorded her part before leaving....which is normally impossible as Mariah and JD worked on the song last week. So, the best is to wait and see! Posted on February 14 |

Collaboration to Celebrate the Power of People to Make Change in the World
Jermaine Dupri announced today that he and Mariah Carey will lead an effort to produce a musical collaboration encouraging people to step forward and commit to action to strengthen and improve our nation and the world. The inspiration for the song comes from Points of Light Institute, the largest enabler of voluntary action in the nation, an organization that inspires, equips and mobilizes people to take action that changes the world. According to Dupri, music is a powerful vehicle to bring about togetherness and understanding, with an ability to reach people in ways that words alone cannot. "There's a lot happening in the world right now. We hope to create something special with other great musicians that moves people and can make them understand they CAN do something positive to make their lives and the world better." Who: Jermaine Dupri and Mariah Carey will
co-write the song, performing it along with a host of other artists.

It seems they are now also against people who eat meat (that will be more difficult to reach) and it seems they are also against non-Americans. Nah, I'm kidding, I asked them since a week what was the deal about the Mariah, Pink, Gaga campaign being postponed or cancelled and they were mute. Today they gave an answer to MariahDailyJournal: "No, it is not going up at that location [Los Angeles] or anywhere else." (Michelle Cho from Peta that I contacted too, when I told you they were against non-Americans )

| next design project. “It’s making me really
want a maternity line,”
Mariah Carey's Good Taste
After debuting a footwear collection with HSN in November, the songstress is gearing up to return to the cable spotlight on Feb. 11 to showcase her spring line. The new collection features six styles, including an ankle-wrap platform sandal, a T-strap pump and other warm-weather offerings. And similar to the first line, the spring shoes are adorned with rhinestones, jewels and butterflies, all part of Carey’s signature look. Finding inspiration for the shoes came easily, Carey told Footwear News. “My life exists in public and in shoes,” she said. “I’ll build my outfit around the footwear.” And now, as her footwear selection has started to favor flats over stilettos by necessity, the mother-to-be said the shift could spark her next design project. “It’s making me really want a maternity line,” she said. First concert: Michael Jackson. “I was addicted to listening to the radio, and Michael was always on. He had an amazing voice.” Best vacation spot: Capri, Italy. “I go shopping a lot. There are really nice stores and gorgeous blue water.” Funniest “Saturday Night Live” skit: “They did this skit about divas, and it was pretty funny. One of the girls played me, and there were impersonations of Celine Dion and Shania Twain.” Go-to fashion accessories: “My wedding ring and a butterfly ring.” Favorite duet partners: “I’ve made records with just about everybody. I just did a duet on my Christmas album with my mother, and a memorable event was working with Luciano Pavarotti. And for fun, I loved ‘Fantasy’ with Ol’ Dirty Bastard.” Most enjoyable venue: “Performing at Madison Square Garden. I love New York. It’s my hometown.” How I relax: “I love swimming, I love the beach and I love the water. I have to put on so much sunblock.” Movie I can watch over and over: “For a while it was ‘Mean Girls.’ I would quote it. Lately I watch ‘Bruno.’ It’s hilarious.” Red carpet footwear picks: “Manolo Blahnik always does a fabulous red-carpet shoe, and I love YSL.” Source: WWD

A boy and a girl for Mariah and Nick! 
As expected by most of the fans and regular people, Mariah and Nick are expecting a boy and a girl. Normally, I wouldn't post what comes from a magazine, but as Mariah's official site posted it..... L&S Confirms: Mariah and Nick are having
a boy and a girl!
And Mariah couldn't be happier. "Even before we announced it was twins, I was trying to keep everything genderneutral because I didn't want to impose an identity on them too soon," Mariah tells Life & Style with a laugh. "There were fan contests on Twitter about what gender they are and rumors about them being two boys or two girls -- but nobody guessed this!" Nick first revealed in December that the couple were having twins. "In order for my wife and I to have our life, we need to be up front and I need to be able to share things with you and be real," he said on his radio show. "I didn't even tell my wife I was gonna do this. I'm probably gonna get yelled at for not getting permission. We're having twins!" They're set to welcome their bundles of joy in April. "It's been a long journey--but a happy one," says mom-to-be Mariah. For more on Nick and Mariah, plus all the latest on celebrity moms-to-be, pick up the new issue of Life & Style, on newsstands tomorrow. Source: Mariah's
