[Music Video] Mariah Carey – Triumphant

The non-charting “Triumphlop (Forget ‘Er)” may be the worst single of Mariah Carey‘s career, but that doesn’t mean that it can’t get a nice music video.

Clad in various revealing gold-colored hooker ensembles that are probably part of her next HSN collection, Mariah plays a sexy ring girl in the boxing-themed visual. Hottie Meek Mill is the star boxer, and Rick Ross fills the role of the blingy Don King character.

Miss Mariah’s on fire, and I have to take my hat off to director Nick Cannon and the small army of editors who managed to make her look this buff and skinny. If this whole thing was just a cute little feature Mariah did for some new Meek Mill single, it’d be a stone groove smash.

In other news, have y’all heard the tea? TMZ have reported that Mariah hung up on Idol producers when they told her that they’re considering Nicki Minaj for American Idol (yes lambs, I am well and truly aware that the pair have worked together once before). Her spokesperson denied it, but something in the milk definitely ain’t clean. Regardless, Mariah has been campaigning on Twitter to get rocker (and close friend) Lenny Kravitz on the panel, tweeting Idol and retweeting fans who think it’s a good idea.

Girl.

These Idol bosses couldn’t have possibly fathomed the amount of diva drama they were gonna get by hiring Mariah. Expect this to be just the beginning of what is bound to be a string of outrageous rumors and moments.

    Wouldn’t it be better if Mariah and a Nicki look-alike were the ones fighting in the ring? I’d be totally for that even with this lackluster song!

    Love the video and the concept. Mariah never looked better. Honey Gold is her color. Video starts at 3:00, tho. Those boxing moments and killer looks at the very end are HOT TAMALE.

    The song sucks as hell, but the video looks cool and mostly because Mariah looks like a total babe, and I think the drama with Nicki is becuase even she know that she as an AI judge is a mess up, lame and stupid move from the producers of the show, in the other hand Lenny sounds awesome as a judge, I can see Diddy (he have been rumored), Lenny and Mariah as the new judges of AI pretty well it’s all there pop/R&B, hip hop and rock if is not Lenny, Adam can too or some other rocker like Bon Jovi or Slash since both have been on the show as mentors, and if is not Diddy maybe Timbaland or JD Dupri or or some hip hop producer with personality, but sadly people seens to like the idea of Nicki as judge with sucks

    Why does Mariah always have the same image? Can’t she re-invent herself anymore? For the last three albums its all just; blonde hair, glitter, glamour dress and sometimes bikini.

    It would be great to see her with a new concept for once. That’s probably why sales for her previous album wasn’t as great as E=MC2

    she’s in her 40′s I dont think she needs to prove anything to anyone anymore. She has been the #1 best selling artist since the 90′s so i think she just needs to produce some music for her fans.

    who need changes is Beyonce.
