About Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter:

Biggest concern (77,027) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter So my biggest concern from the latest photos is, what is up with Mariah's mic? Why is she using a basic person generic black mic? Where the hell is the gold mic? When was the last time Mariah used a mic that wasn't either gold or sparkly? She's going broke, they can't afford a gold mic, I cannot deal. Haha I'm kidding. Not a fan of the stage ensembles. But I'm trying to keep quiet about it because next thing I know she'll start wearing them out to dinner and grocery shopping again and I'm just thankful that she's limiting it to the stage. However I do agree that the whole "oh her voice will get better as the shows go on", that's no excuse because the people attending on the first night are paying the same amount of money to buy the tickets.

Re: All The Hits / Bill from UK (77,017) (77,020) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Wishy Washy back at it again. (Monday 10 July 2017; 16:21)

Same post (77,011) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ok so this is maybe the fourth time I'm saying this but Mariah needs to cover MJ's "Speechless". The song is perfect and suits Mariah's style. I would love to hear her take on it. Other alternative as usual would be "You're are not alone" and "Butterflies". I think I vaguely remember Mariah once talking about liking "Butterflies" (the song haha, we all know for a fact that she loves the insect). But please Mariah, cover "Speechless". That song needs some recognition. It is so beautiful yet so simple, the lyrics are amazing, it's haunting yet soothing at the same time. (Monday 10 July 2017; 02:54)

Re: Wrapping up Vegas / Anthony for manager (76,972) (76,978) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I think JD and Randy left instead of them being fired. I mean they stepped down from their roles and were not fired. Stella is still around because she would never willingly step down. Anthony should never have been fired. He should have been kept as her creative director for her live shows. He kept things real and didn't mind showing his annoyance when Mariah wouldn't cooperate. Anthony was the only professional one too, look at what a great job he did with Beyonce's performance right after he left Mariah's team. This will be Mariah's first Vegas leg without Anthony. Wonder what changes they made. (Sunday 9 July 2017; 01:05)

Re: The Emancipation of Mimi / photoshoot / LA Reid (76,970) (76,977) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter TEOM cover was so legendary, I'm glad LA pushed her in that direction if it was his idea. The cover just exuded confidence and sex appeal. Perfect cover for an album that went on to become iconic. I remember Mariah talking about how she almost changed the cover because people were saying that she looks like Beyonce on the cover and so Mariah wanted to change it (not because she doesn't like Beyonce) because she didn't want people to think that she was ripping off someone's style but then she decided to keep it. I'm glad she did because I love that cover and the platinum edition one. (Sunday 9 July 2017; 01:00)

Re: Wrapping up Vegas (76,968) (76,971) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I was always team JD though. At most I said that hiring JD was a bad idea because Mariah would not listen to JD as a manager. I've been dragged for being team JD even before (especially during the time when Mariah wasn't hanging out with him and also after he did the interview where he said some stuff that pissed fans off) so ya I am not changing stories here, and I will certainly never be team Stella.

Re: Wrapping up Vegas (76,966) (76,967) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter While it's true that MIAM era was a mess but it's absolutely true that JD is a million times better as a manager than Stella. It's not hidden anymore that Mariah was going through personal problems which may have kept JD from really doing much with the era and use his full potential. At the very least JD is from the industry and has connections within the industry, something Stella clearly doesn't. Also JD had the decency to step down from his managerial role when he figured it wouldn't work, something Stella would never do. Two and a half years in and I am still baffled as to how Mariah even thought this was a good idea to take on Stella and the clan especially since Stella has messed up a lot.

Re: New music (76,948) (76,953) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Did she really record it? Any sources? I hope it's an upbeat one. (Friday 7 July 2017; 18:06)

Re: On a positive note (76,943) (76,945) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The makeup less photo of her got me shook. She was giving me 2003 and 2010 Mariah vibes. Mariah's skin is flawless. (Friday 7 July 2017; 13:38)

Re: Wrapping up Vegas (76,941) (76,942) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I am hoping that they actually will and that they couldn't release one yet because it's probably in the contract that she can release it after her shows are over. I would love to watch the show and behind the scenes preparations. (Friday 7 July 2017; 11:38)

Re: Mathew "the truth of this rumor" (76,934) (76,938) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ya no one is buying that story, but the whole "Mariah is sitting on a bottomless jar of money" is a stretch. Don't forget Michael Jackson went broke even after owning his own catalogue and the Beatles. Johnny Depp is in a financial crisis and there are countless other celebs like that. I don't think Mariah is broke but she certainly isn't financially invincible otherwise she wouldn't be picking up these random advertisements of dating apps and dog walking services among other things.

Petty post (76,937) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter This is just me being messy and petty but Stella posted like 6 photos (out of which a few are re-cropped versions of the same photo) and captioned each of them with some "empower your bull crap" mess, like girl, you are all basically standing in the lobby of a hotel, the pictures are all from the same series with the same exact pose, we get it, you are empowering everyone, quit making it sound like you have achieved something huge (apart from scamming Mariah). (Friday 7 July 2017; 01:02)

Re: Chriatnas [sic] in Vegas? (76,925) (76,926) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Haha, Bill needs to be banned like Edward from USA. You all play too much. (Thursday 6 July 2017; 20:24)

Re: Chriatnas [sic] in Vegas? (76,923) (76,924) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I too remember hearing about it and was not pleased. Christmas in Vegas just doesn't sound good, I mean NY was perfect for it. I wonder what made her change it. (Thursday 6 July 2017; 19:31)

Wild Thoughts (76,910) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The song is gaining on Billboard, went from #4 to #3 this week. I hope "Despacito" and "I'm the one" keeps blocking the first 2 spots until WT drops. I'm not going to be able to take another Rihanna #1 while Mariah's career is down in shambles. No hate to Rihanna though but a girl can only handle so much at once. (Wednesday 5 July 2017; 21:17)

Article: Mariah Carey is in The House after all, sort of (76,907) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Gosh I'm so over this, girl bye, this is last week's news. (Wednesday 5 July 2017; 19:12)

Re: 4th of July (76,892) (76,904) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Y'all need to stop making me feel like a flop lamb haha. (Wednesday 5 July 2017; 18:03)

Re: For the first time in a while (76,902) (76,903) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter No those are sharks, Stella is a leech. Haha. (Wednesday 5 July 2017; 18:02)

Re: 4th of July (76,883) (76,885) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I also used to always skip over FOJ, I never really got into it. I'll probably go and listen to it again to see if I feel differently about it now, but yes "Butterfly" is perfection, the only 2 songs I skip on it are FOJ and TBO. But I wouldn't change anything about that album. It's a master piece. (Tuesday 4 July 2017; 21:06)

Re: Article: Mariah Carey credit card not declined while shopping (76,879) (76,884) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Haha especially when Mariah quite recently splurged 34K to buy "hoochie mama" Stella a big LV trunk. Anyone with half a brain would know that no reputable brand would go out and say "oh yes, Miss Carey, her card was declined", because not everyone has a big mouth like Stella cutting off ties with people. I really hope the whole "Mariah was mad at her assistant part" was true though, she needs to be seriously medicated or under voodoo control to not notice what has happened to her image since this clan came on board. Stella being in a different place than Mariah for once in the past 2 years seems like a celebratory moment, since that never happens but it probably won't last long. (Tuesday 4 July 2017; 21:04)

Re: Mariah (76,869) (76,875) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Stella is now it seems using Mariah's private jet for her own vacations. At first I thought she is using it because Mariah is with her but turns out Mariah is in the Bahamas with Bryan and the kids while Stella took the jet to Hawaii. This woman is going to milk every last penny she can get off Mariah's brand and then leave. Mariah needs to wake up while she has time to save her own career. Stella has made enough stupid mistakes for Mariah to realize that. (Tuesday 4 July 2017; 07:00)

Re: DJ Khaled (76,852) (76,857) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mariah actually said they didn't record anything together which I found was odd since they clearly seemed to be working on something but oh well. (Monday 3 July 2017; 16:12)

DJ Khaled (76,842) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mariah has been doing so many side projects that are leading to nothing (latest I heard is that the Barcelona photo shoot was for some luxury apartment or whatever), it's confusing. Anyways about Khaled, I wonder why, after hanging out with him so many times both in the studio and outside, did she not end up on his album. It seems like every song released from that album is going to the top 5. With Rihanna's one debuting at #4 and Justin's at #1. She should have gotten a track on it. She even seemed to have recorded. Lord knows why she doesn't grab good opportunities and instead I wasting her time on messy projects. I hope there is deluxe version or something where she'll get a track but by then the interest would be gone. (Monday 3 July 2017; 01:52)

Re: Jazz album (76,834) (76,839) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter No shade to Jazz artists, and I think Mariah's voice would go nicely with some sultry jazz-y song, but I'm not here for a full jazz album. I do not mind a jazz song in an album along with other genres but I agree, a full jazz album should not be her next move. (Monday 3 July 2017; 01:04)

Celine (76,824) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Celine is going through her "Butterfly" era here. Hats off to her for pulling this off though. She has reinvented herself. (Sunday 2 July 2017; 13:10)
