About Lee from USA: I love mimi

Thanks, Bill (45,121) by Lee from USA I was making the point if other artists are doing worse than Mimi was, we can't be losing our minds about a damn photo. I just stated the obvious, and if you are going to get mad at me for doing so, then you all should get mad at the Reelz Channel for putting their business out there. Lately, she has been talking about her kids and she put the album together. Every time she is in a magazine, they list her accolades. In other news, did Nick actually said that stuff or did the media made it up like they did with the MJ fiasco. (Thursday 26 June 2014; 21:56)

Another thing (45,108) by Lee from USA How could Wendell Williams complain about how our girl dresses but spent thousands of dollars trying to look like her? (Thursday 26 June 2014; 0:47)

Image (45,106) by Lee from USA Jaker, according to you she should break up with Nick and ship the kids to her mother's. When I read people bitch about her image, I start to think about the artists that have done worse than our girl and still are defended. Mimi never was accused of child molestation, smoked crack, abused or chased off any of her spouses or boyfriends, or made a sex book. No federal investigations at Camp Mariah had been launched, and yet she is being bashed about a single cover. (Wednesday 25 June 2014; 19:02)

Ok (44,986) by Lee from USA But why is everyone caring about the single cover? As long as the music is critically acclaimed, it shouldn't matter too much. Ain't she promoting it like she was supposed to for the last 2-3 weeks that her CD's been out? And what's the point of being relatable to everybody? We can't just go up to our favorite celebs and go drinking and dancing with them. I have seen artists hold grudges all of the time, and it doesn't mean they are not likeable. Elvis hated the Beatles, but it didn't make him less liked. If Mimi was holding a grudge, then Nick should have been cursed out for having her on his radio show. She didn't give a shit then, and probably don't give one now. (Saturday 21 June 2014; 22:02)

Uh (44,964) by Lee from USA There's no proof that Mimi said anything bad about J.Lo in the first place. The comment about J.Lo was from an unconfirmed source in People magazine. Why would Mimi reconcile with someone who she hasn't wronged in the first place? Didn't she went to one of her parties, or vice versa? Besides, isn't she promoting her album like you all been screaming at her to do? (Saturday 21 June 2014; 15:20)

Billboard (44,729) by Lee from USA My problem with the Billboard article is that it reeks of a double standard when Mimi puts out an album that sells less than 1 million copies. This is purely bullsh.t given that Billboard just called an artist an "icon" despite her selling less than Britney Spears. The album sells less than expected and it's code red. And yet, no one writes any articles or says anything when artists like J.Lo put out four flop albums in a row. Where are these guys when Shakira sells only 50 million albums? Bruce Springsteen only has one #1 hit to his credit, and these reporters are still kissing his butt. (Friday 13 June 2014; 23:30)

Jorge (44,533) by Lee from USA I agree with you on Medina. He is making Lopez look better than she really is. But her albums and movies still stink. Why would anyone go on Wendell Williams' show anyways? She (or he) would probably smile in her face and trash her behind her back. (Friday 6 June 2014; 15:32)

Gilbert (44,488) by Lee from USA I am with you on that. But the only problem with her not being #1 is that the haters have something to talk about. They won't try to do research on what's really going on, and instead, would tell their audience whatever they want to. (Wednesday 4 June 2014; 19:08)

Carly (44,460) by Lee from USA I know, right. I always thought RS (or BS) was on someone's payroll. TEOM got 3 stars and ended up with three Grammys and selling more than 40 million copies worldwide. All of the people that liked Mimi has left and doing bigger and better things. All the goats are stuck there and are killing the magazine with cover stories about terrorists and skanks. (Tuesday 3 June 2014; 20:28)

Changing subjects (43,812) by Lee from USA I think Mimi would be fine on her next album. But did anyone watch the Billboard Music Awards? I watched bits and pieces of it. How could an artist who struggled to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 for nearly two decades be named a Billboard Icon? (Monday 19 May 2014; 19:25)

Jaker (42,057) by Lee from USA You shouldn't be worried Katy Perry. Her career has been a poor imitation of Mimi's. She can't keep a man nor win a Grammy. This is a chick who got dumped by Russell Brand's dirty ass after a few months of marriage. And she got the nerve to hype Beyoncé, who has 1 hit song out of 17. I don't see how 4 failed singles could break her career whereas other old-school artists have not had a hit single in over a decade and still be called legends. (Wednesday 12 March 2014; 14:23)

R&R Hall of Fame (41,956) by Lee from USA In order to be inducted, it has to be 25 years since her first single. And then, it has to be a lot of politics involved. But she should be in there due to her stats being better than over 90% of the acts inducted. (Monday 3 March 2014; 17:15)

I personally have no problem with Angola (40,267) by Lee from USA Walmart underpays its employees yet no one is screaming at Katy Perry and Kevin Hart. The Rat Pack took money from the Mafia. But people are crying about her taking money from a bank. Really? (Friday 20 December 2013; 5:13)

My two cents (40,223) by Lee from USA I don't see the logic on losing faith in Mimi. She did put out a top-20 hit which went platinum with shoddy promotion. As far as Beyoncé releasing all of these videos, we shouldn't sweat it. It seems like desperation and frustration to me. It makes no sense to throw shade at an industry that pretty much threw her a parade every time she stepped on the scene. I expect Mimi to say something like that, not "queen" Bey. Adele blew her out the water two years ago despite her not being a size two or being heavily promoted. Columbia saw that Adele outsold Lady Gaga and Beyoncé with little promotion. So it may make them rethink about who should be their golden girl, and the queen don't want that. (Saturday 14 December 2013; 17:00)

Star magazine (40,009) by Lee from USA What can we do about this magazine? They have tried to break them up since 2008. (Wednesday 27 November 2013; 1:24)

I disagree (39,834) by Lee from USA If her popularity is waning, why is her Twitter followers steadily rising from 12-13 million to 14 million? If Nick is being thrown under the bus, then why is he still with her and singing her praises? It is funny that Mimi could be labeled as "nut-job", yet she could hold down a husband. I am tired of the whole image debate. Mimi was having fun at Fallon's show and people are complaining. She has never smoked crack, slept with her dancers or employees, made porn, nor had she been investigated for child abuse or molestation. (Friday 15 November 2013; 20:12)

George (39,635) by Lee from USA If you think she is the best, then why are you complaining about her music and image? It makes no sense to say that she can't hit #1 yet she is the best. Personally, I don't see a problem with her image when other artists ,who are older (and younger) than she is, have done worse than she had conceived of doing. It is funny how nobody squawked too much about Lady Gaga performing nude in some gay club, but people complained about Mimi showing cleavage on Twitter. It seems that some of the British would endorse Gaga and Madonna's raunchy antics on stage, but they would be the first ones to tell Mimi to cover up. (Friday 1 November 2013; 20:44)

Do you believe that Young Jeezy crap? (39,498) by Lee from USA Does she have the time to cheat with the kids, new album, etc? I swear they make up things to drag her name through the mud. But then again, J Lo is pretty much done with her man anyways, so the bloggers don't want to see Mimi happy if their darling isn't. Hell, the last time we saw her with Jeezy was months ago. Nick was not jealous when he responded to it, he probably laughed it off. (Thursday 17 October 2013; 16:08)

I'm tired (39,213) by Lee from USA This whining about what Mimi's haters think about her is getting old, guys. Everybody knows that there's a vendetta against Mimi among industry people. Mariah gets criticized for shit that Kanye and Lady Gaga would have been celebrated. Are people that desperate to bash Mimi that they are invoking Celine Dion? If Mimi took note from Celine, then she would be as irrelevant as Celine is now. I like the fact that Mimi is challenging these kids instead of running to Vegas in order to be an overpaid lounge singer. (Thursday 5 September 2013; 15:40)

I swear (38,567) by Lee from USA We as fans need to calm down. If the woman could put out a great song at 43, then I am not giving up on her. Edward, there's a reason why Barbra Streisand sounds great. [...] If Babs was so great, why did she struggle for years to get hit songs? (Thursday 4 July 2013; 19:04)

I wouldn't worry, Jimbo (38,285) by Lee from USA She is not the person that would creep around. If it was J Lo or Madge, then I would agree with you. Besides, Nick goes to all of these clubs which are full of half naked chicks while Mimi is home taking care of the kids. How come there are no pictures of that? The paps are less willing to follow Nick around than they are when it comes to Mimi. By the way, I don't care about the album's name, only the music. And another thing, how come Rolling Stone has not said anything about #Beautiful yet? Usually, they are the ones talking the most crap about anything Mimi puts out. (Tuesday 18 June 2013; 16:10)

Well (37,939) by Lee from USA I am sure Aretha lipped a few times in her day, so nobody's perfect. Madonna and Whitney have ripped off their fans at one point or another, yet nobody is crying about it a week later.This is what I'm talking about. Mimi is the most scrutinized artist in the business. If Radar Online struggled to find proof of it and there is proof on YouTube of the opposite, then we should let it go and keep supporting her. By the way, Mimi is far from embarrassing herself via a taped performance gone awry. If bad press has not destroyed her by now, it is not going to now. (Monday 20 May 2013; 5:59)

You are all right but (37,929) by Lee from USA Another thing irks me about this fiasco. Why is Mimi is getting grief due to appearing to not give J-Lo a standing ovation? These people should know that it is J-Lo, not Aretha or Patti LaBelle. I will never understand the hero-worship that J-Lo has gotten over the years despite underwhelming music and crappy movies. Yet if Mimi puts out a bad song or bad movie, she is exiled from showbiz. (Sunday 19 May 2013; 0:33)

I am not worried (37,898) by Lee from USA She is going to shut these haters and fair-weather fans up on GMA next Friday. People complained about her performance on the BET awards, but it didn't stop TEOM from going 6x platinum. So, why are people crying about a medley of her hits? Hello, you can't sing a duet by yourself. You all can't expect our girl to sing 4 or 5 songs in 4 or 5 minutes. She doesn't have to prove anything to us. The woman just put out a top 40 hit at the age 43 without much promotion. (Friday 17 May 2013; 19:31)

Well (37,871) by Lee from USA According to Mediabase, the spins are going up by 1000 per days on the other non-Clear Channel stations. The Examiner is nothing but some haters. In regards to her being sexy, the reason that she is worth $500 million is that she combines sex appeal and talent. Nine of the top ten richest women in entertainment are sexy as hell. She did not make the rules, so she should not be punished for following them. (Thursday 16 May 2013; 0:45)
