Mariah Carey reveals her thoughts on “new divas”.

“I don’t really follow every new act — they come out constantly. There are so many, it’s often hard to keep track, and sometimes they’re here today and gone tomorrow…”

  • MCneelified06

    I know you’re no lamb, but you should post one of her performances from Christmas in Washington — she was amazing.

  • gymjunki3

    Hahaha! Another classic subtle jab! This is almost as good as her “I wish her well & will keep her in my prayers”- MC to Xtina

    Somewhere in the world Leona Lewis is reading this with tears streaming down her face.

  • Lilyharingey5

    She’s just such a bitch, such a vile woman. Would it kill her to have some respect and say something nice. She’s had the most staff out of all celebrities, I know 3 people who have walked out on her.

  • gymjunki3

    Speaking of Leona, has anyone seen her video sitting on the couch singing MC’s ‘All I want for Christmas’ and her rendition of O holy Night! Lord she is desperate to be her!

  • gymjunki3

    She’s only telling it how it is!

  • Peter P

    HAHAHAHAHAH typical mariah class-bitchy comment! love it.

  • Peter P

    on jennifer lopez: ‘i dont know her’ LOLOLOL

  • SerferTJ

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

    The beauty of this statement is that it’s so ambiguous that you can twist it yourself and aim the shade at any artist of your choosing!!!!!!!!

    I’mma pretend she shot that torpedo-of-shade at Katy Perry. tehehehe :)

  • mimifan

    *DEAD*

  • AnkkA

    to be honest, there haven’t really been any real divas for quite a while…. so I don’t know who she is talking about!
    she should be worried about the fact that MCIIU is not even going to go Gold!

  • AnkkA

    @Lilyharingey5 LOL !!
    there are many new talented girls out today (they have yet to become true divas) so, she could have said something nice about someone.
    I guess the only music she listens to is her own!
    You know she knows all her Nr.1 songs by heart! she’s her own biggest fan!

  • AnkkA

    the full quote:
    “Who do you admire out of the new breed of divas?
    I don’t really follow every new act — they come out constantly. There are so many, it’s often hard to keep track, and sometimes they’re here today and gone tomorrow. I admire my friends, like Beyonce and Nicki Minaj — people who seem destined to be doing this for a living with longevity.”
    Micky Ninaj? she clearly has bad taste in music…

  • Kyndra

    Oh Leona, don’t worry, it’ll all get better in time.

  • Alex K

    Oh, who the fuck else could it be aimed at!

  • the kiddz

    Funny how you didn’t post her entire quote

  • Blasian

    Who do you admire out of the new breed of divas?
    I don’t really follow every new act — they come out constantly. There are so many, it’s often hard to keep track, and sometimes they’re here today and gone tomorrow. I admire my friends, like BEYONCE and Nicki Minaj — people who seem destined to be doing this for a living with longevity.

    HAHA!

  • Johnta

    I knew she would say Bey, but no mention of Christina, leona, and alicia.

  • Luel14

    Ha, you failed to mention she said Bey. Stay press. I’m just no going to even think she said Nicki Minaj name.

  • solpower

    Some of yall sound mad. lol
    lmao @ that gif.
    I love the queen’s subtle jabs. lol

  • vee

    why did this guy not post the whole thing mariah said it was BEYONCE and NICKI MINAJ

  • DannyLeGuen

    Yeah, this is a typical jab from the Prophet. No mention of the fact that her album is faring very well in USA and worldwide and no posts about her powerhouse vocal performances on the ABC Special and in Washington. She has shown this week that there is still no female vocalist that comes close.

    Instead this is fast becoming some sort of Korean Pop blog.

  • meli

    I love her. She throws shade in the most amazing way. People could learn a thing or two from her.

  • LeShae17

    That’s a hell of an eclipse scar on girl’s head. O_o

  • http://www.theprophetblog.net The Prophet

    Because I don’t care about some Christmas album.

    You don’t see me posting every bloody performance Jessica Simpson has done for her christmas album.

    I haven’t posted anybody elses Xmas performances either. It’s not just Mariah.

    And how was this shade? I was showing how she snatches the wigs off these younger flop chicks.

  • blink_blind

    Reminds me of my favorite Chris Rock quote, “You know how it is in music: fickle. Here today, gone today.”

  • Pez

    O proph, why not finish that lovely quote?
    ” I admire my friends, like Beyonce and Nicki Minaj — people who seem destined to be doing this for a living with longevity.”

    nicki be here to stay y’all… And beyonce as well apparently.

  • Diego110592

    Is the moving picture an episode of “Desperate Housewive”?

  • Hbf82

    @ Diego
    It’s from Melrose Place. But Marcia Cross is amazing as a legendary Bree Van de Kamp also. Love her.

  • Flopiah Carey

    Queen of Flops! She can’t even sell half of what Susan Boyle and Jackie Evancho sold!

    Send this flop pig to the garbage bin!

  • Jess

    Mimi <3 She speaks the truth. And I love how he left out the part about her praising Bey <3<3<3

    Mariah and Beyonce duet pleaseeeeee!
