after thought indeedy

Why did she get it so late?

**Milano** · Sun October 11, 2020, 07:20

I don't think she has sent the book to Ariana, she doesn't know her, as in literally they have not even met correct me if I'm wrong)

And to all those saying they can't have a song together - not all songs and/or performances are competitions!! Gaga had a song with her recently, no issues there..

Maybe it is part of their plan to send another batch of books to celebs to keep the momentum going in soc med.

Lol she did send the book to Ariana who literally posted a story about it.

On second thought it does look doctored...

Just halfway through the book.
Stumbled on a quote Mariah says Marilyn allegedly once said (They go to bed with Marilyn Monroe and wake up with Norma Jeane) but, actually, it was Rita Hayworth who said it back in the late 40s: They go to bed with "Gilda" and they wake up with me.

I'm an Old Hollywood movie buff, read plenty of books on Marilyn and Rita (she's my fave actress ever.)

Anyways, I'm hooked!

Did a quick Google... looks like Marilyn did infact say it too - lots of references to it on the internet

I did too, plus the books I got on her.
I didn't recall that specific quote. Always associated it with Rita. But they had pretty similar dysfunctional relationships too due to their status and typecast.

I love the book. I'm on page 137. I can only do like 40 pages a day because I want to spread it out like a tv series. Yesterday, I was looking at the pictures at the beginning of part II... and I loved them so much. I was mesmerized and really soaked them in for like half an hour.

I particularly loved the picture of her with Shawn and Michael - her nephews. I always wonder what Alison's children are doing, but we only really know of Shawn (who is in her entourage every now and then), but what is up with Michael? In an earlier section of the book, she references him very briefly saying... something like: He's still making her laugh or something in that vein.

I don't think Mariah ever met the other 2 kids of Alison. I'm just glad she's still in contact with Shawn and Michael. I always wonder if she's still in contact with her cousins. I sometimes forget that Mariah has a family beyond her mother and 2 siblings because she hardly ever mentions them. I hope she is on good terms with all of them. The part of her aunts trying to comb her hair... was hilarious (but also tragic - I feel her pain).

The scene of her cousins saying that Mariah belongs to them... when other kids said she is too white... was heartbreaking.

Now when i think of mariah putting on a “diva dahhling” act on stage or in interviews, i think she’s really mocking (maybe subconsciously) Pat. And I wonder how much money she’s given to Pat all these years?

Shawn shared a pic of her sister few weeks ago and she was holding a gift from MC for her as a kid... and these kids went to Shawn wedding.. so....

Mike seems to be private. He is a father now - he took the baby a couple years back to Mariah’s Beacon show.

She has met Carmela and Dominic at least once in Aspen about 15-16 years ago, but I am not sure if she’s interacted with them beyond that.

I’m still curious as to what family Shawn had from that side of the family at his wedding other than Mariah. I’m sure Alison wasn’t there, but I wonder about his siblings and Pat.

Someday, Prisoner and HWGAA : The 10/10 Upbeat Trinity of the Debut album. All three were worthy of #1 status.

Did I miss the reveal?
Was it just the “Chick” writing on one of the pages?

It was the "Chick" writing on the wall which refered to the Chick album she did.

**RayRay** · Sun October 11, 2020, 18:53

WOW!!!!!!!!!

So many songs of The Rarities charting on the UKMIX charts!

Can you hear me ? has grown on me so much.

The vulnerability in her voice coupled with the power is so alluring.

It wouldn't let me download it. IT must have been coded in a way so it was impossible to download. I download loads of stuff from youtube but literally nothing worked on that upload. She had a good programmer !!

**RayRay** · Sun October 11, 2020, 19:44

Couldn't put the book down.

I did - had to try a lot of different websites but finally found one that could download it. Haven't watched it though ... haven't even listened to all the songs on The Rarities or read the book or Audible...too busy listening to HWGAA, One Night, Cool On You, Mesmerized and Loverboy on endless repeat!

**dancamz** · Sun October 11, 2020, 21:07

If anyone ever finds a Blu-ray rip of tokyo dome id appreciate a little link in the dms

**skylynx** · Sun October 11, 2020, 21:26

Jennifer Hudson - has the Aretha biopic RESPECT coming in January
Ariana Grande - has a potential new album releasing soon. There's bound to be a single at least this year

Perhaps this is more than just Mariah wanting them on, it could be a AppleTV or Production company push to cross-promote.
