Magazines Galore!!!
 Mariah is in a bunch of tabloids/magazines this week and here goes...
First off, you can check out Mariah in the May 8th issue of the Star tabloid. She is on page 13 and it is a full page picture of her in her red dress. You can check out the scan/article in Gallery 53.

Next, Mariah is in the May 8th issue of the Globe tabloid on page 8. It is the same exact picture as the Star but in this pic, it shows Luis and Mariah, instead of just Mariah. I didn't bother scanning it since it's the same but I did type out the article:

Diamond Doubles:
Mariah's man buys her Julia's $1.5 million Oscar bauble!
Julia Roberts got to wear one of the world's most expensive bracelets at the Academy Awards but Mariah Carey gets to keep the diamong dazzler forever-thanks to her mega-rich singer boyfriend, Luis Miguel.

Mariah's hunky Latin lover surprised the songbird with the $1.5 million sparkler while cruising aboard his luxury yacht off Spain. It's the same bracelet exclusive jeweler Van Cleef & Arpels loaned to Julia in March. Luis, 31, bought it to celebrate Mariah's new $100 million-plus record deal.

"When it comes to gifts for Mariah, Luis doesn't hold back," says a source close to Carey, also 31. "But the bracelet really took her breath away."

Next, Mariah is in the May 8th issue of National Enquirer on page 47. You can check out the scan in Gallery 53. Basically it is just Mariah in the red dress and the title says, Glitter Rocks.

There is 6 pictures of Mariah in the May 1st issue of Mira tabloid. There is a pic of MC and Luis on the cover and also, inside there is 4 pics of Mariah and Luis and then on page 44, is a pic we have seen of MC before in the olive outfit and it's takes up the full page!! I didn't bother scanning the pics because we have all seen them before!

Next, check out Mariah and Luis on page 20 of the May 14th issue of US Weekly! Once again, it's a picture we have all seen before of them on the yacht and here is what it says...

Hot Couple: Mariah in Love
Mariah Carey recently took a break from recording the soundtrack to her upcoming film, All That Glitters, in southern Spain to spend a dew days vacationing nearby with her boyfriend, singer Luis Miguel. Perhaps in honor of the movie's title, Miguel reportedly bought Carey the same Van Cleef & Arpels diamond bracelet that was loaned to Julia Roberts for this year's Academy Awards.
Finally, Mariah's Lamby (aka Danielle) sent me a scan from the June 2001 VIBE magazine and you can check it out in Gallery 53. I don't really know much about the pic but it's a brand new picture of Mariah with Patti Labelle and a gal named Denise! Mariah is wearing a black tube top and black shirt! I will try and get a bigger scan for you later but I bet the picture is pretty small in the magazine.

Mari Sends More Pics
 Mari sent me two new pictures of Mariah that she took in Spain of Mariah walking through the crowd!! You can check them out in I Met Mariah.

News From Virgin Brazil
 The first single from the new Mariah´s album will be "Glitter" and will hit the radios on June 8th. Mariah will release her album on August 20th and will be on the big screen too. In her first role as actress on the movie "All That Glitters" which will be released in USA on August 31st and in Brazil on November 16th.

That above information was taken from the Virgin Brazil website, Fabio tells me. It says the album will hit stores on August 20th, which is a Monday?? Maybe they meant August 21st. Also, most of us thought the first single would be LoverBoy but now, maybe it is Glitter? Who knows! Whatcha going to do?? All we can do is keep guessing until Mariah herself lets us know.

Mariah Carey in a magic moment
 In a interview to the program Venteneando, the singer Mariah Carey didn't want to say whenever she's going to marry Luis Miguel but she said: -We're very happy together.  i'm having a wonderful moment in my life. The couple was photographed in Poto Banus, in Marbella, Spain where they had tons of paparazzis around.  At the same day at night they went out for dinner.  Mariah carey arrived in the restaurant without a bracelet and after the dinner she had a diamond bracelet, present from her boyfriend (US$1,420 million).

Mariah Gets Sued
 Seth Swirsky and Warryn  Campbell v. Mariah Carey,  James Harris III, Terry Lewis, Flyte Tyme  Productions, ATV Songs, Rye Songs, Columbia Records, Sony Music  Entertainment.

Filed: September 15, 2000. U.S. District Court Central District, Los Angeles, California
The Case: Popstar diva Mariah Carey has been  accused of ripping off a few things in her lifetime:  First, it was Whitney Houston;  more recently, it has been most of her clothes.

But two songwriters claim Carey  is guilty of another blatant rip-off:  stealing a song they wrote for  the R&B group Xscape. Now, they're  suing her for copyright infringement.

Seth Swirsky and Warryn Campbell claim in a federal lawsuit that the  tune "Thank God I Found You,"  from Carey's 1999 multiplatinum  album, Rainbow, sounds eerily  like a song they wrote in 1997 called  "One of Those Love Songs," which they sold to SoSo Def  Recordings. The tune later  appeared on Xscape's 1998 album,  Traces of My Lipstick. While Carey's lyrics are different from "One of Those Love Songs," the  tracks' low,  manufactured pop beats have  their similarities. But for Swirsky (whose  songwriting credits include Taylor Dayne's "Tell It to My Heart" and "Prove Your Love") and Campbell (who has written songs for  Dru Hill and Shanice), the  similarities are too close--not only with the  tracks  themselves, but with the people  who  produced them. Among the coincidences:  Jermaine Dupri served as a producer for both albums (which were both  released by Columbia), and both  songs were mastered by Bob  Ludwig at ateway Mastering. While  Carey's song lists Terry Lewis,  James Harris III and Carey as the songwriters, Campbell and  Swirsky say the song was plagiarized.

"I'm a fan of Mariah Carey;  this is nothing personal against her,"  Swirsky says. "But I really do believe there's accountability, and it's  very clear what happened here.  I've never sued anybody before.

Swirsky and Campbell's suit  charges Carey, Lewis and Harris with  copyright infringement, false  designation of origin, unfair competition and "reverse passing off." The suit seeks unspecified damages,  including profits from the hit song. Neither Columbia Records nor  Carey's camp are commenting on the  lawsuit.
Status: Pending.

Mariah fights violence with MTV Europe
 Here is what Anne told me:
Hi Regina, I heard Mariah was part of the MTV action, you know, MTV Europe goes black for like 4 or 6 hours on May 4th to protest against meaningless viololence. I'm sorry I don't know for sure that's the right term for it, but it has to do with the Colombine thing, which happens all over the world, big or small, it happens everywhere and it has to stop. It makes no sense, it has to stop.

  So, I just saw (& recorded) Mariah speaking out against it and these were her words (it was recorded at El Cortijo, she has the pink top & bikini on, behind her is that window, you know the setting!):

  You look at yourself in a different way and I look at the world in a different way and I just wish that, especially in terms of racially motivated things, I just wish that people could come together and look beyond that , you know and uhm, hopefully one day we will...

  May 4th MTV Europe (or just Holland, I don't know) will go black for several hours but they will also let artists speak about it and give their opinions, so Mariah will come along too I guess.

Mariah to 'Wise' up
 LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Mira Sorvino, Mariah Carey and Melora Walters are in negotiations to star in the dramatic indie feature "Wise Girls" for director David Anspaugh. The project, budgeted at about $10 million, is slated to start shooting in mid-May in Halifax.

Magazine News
 You can check out Mariah in the May 1st issue of Globe Tabloid!! There is 4 pictures of her and Luis on the yacht in Spain and none of the pictures are new, so I didn't even bother scanning them. I did type out the article below though:

Mariah's Love Boat
It's all hands on each other as dishy diva Careys on with Latin stud.
From the look of these steamy photos shot in Marbella Spain, there's lots of smooth sailing ahead for Mariah Carey and her hunky beau Luis Miguel. The handsome Spanish crooner gifted Mariah with a $1 million speedboat as an engagement present last fall. And the coosome twosome recently rocked the love boat when bikini-clad Mariah hopped on 30 year old Miguel's lap sizzling smooches and hugs.
Well the new magazines hits shelves today, so make sure you go and get the Globe tabloid before it gets taken off the shelves. I used to check the tabloids every weekend and report them but lately, I have gotten somewhat lazy and depended on others to tell me when she was in one. However, I am going to start checking them out every weekend again, so you guys have a little more time to check out Mariah in the magazines.

You can also check out Mariah in the April 26th issue of Break Out magazine. Mark was REALLY nice and sent me the scan, which you can check out in Gallery 53. The article talks about Mariahs requests for her dressing room, her band and her backup singers dressing rooms!! He sent me a huge scan, so I resized it and noticed that you can't read the list very well, so I typed the whole thing out below. All I have to say is that Mariah has one too many requests and I thought it was really funny with the one that says, "Two hot air humidifiers" because that item doesn't even exist! It should be "Two Vaporizers" because Vaporizers blow hot air and Humidifiers blow cool air (I work in a Pharmacy department, can you tell?) Anyhow here is the list:

Artist Dressing Room

Two bottles of Camus white whine
Three six packs of diet coke
Three six packs of caffeine free coke

Prinie told me that there is a picture of MC from the 1997 VMA's in the April 30 issue of TvYNovelas Magazine. Kristen sent me a scan from the April 2001 issue of Latina magazine, and I added that scan to Gallery 53 also. Finally, check out Mariah in TM: Teen Movies.

Trio of 'Girls' in business on Anspaugh indie
 LOS ANGELES (The Hollywood Reporter) --- Mira Sorvino, Mariah Carey and Melora Walters ("Magnolia") are in negotiations to topline the dramatic indie feature "Wise Girls" for director David Anspaugh. Lions Gate is finalizing a deal to distribute the project domestically, with Intermedia on board to handle international distribution. The project, budgeted at about $10 million, is slated to start shooting in mid-May in Halifax.

Written by John Meadows, "Girls" is about three waitresses (Sorvino, Carey and Walters) who work at a mob-owned restaurant and end up getting involved in the business.

Leading Pictures' Anthony Esposito and R.G.H. Lions Share's Billy Blake are producing with Jack Soyka and Bill Blum.

"Girls" marks the first collaboration between the 3-year-old Leading Pictures and foreign sales agency R.G.H. Lion's Share. The companies have partnered in the newly formed Leading Lion Entertainment, for which "Girls" will be the inaugural feature.

Anspaugh, repped by CAA, directed "Moonlight and Valentino," "Rudy" and "Hoosiers." The film was packaged by WMA Independents' Rena Ronson, who put the financing together and brought Lions Gate and Intermedia together.

Sorvino and Carey are repped by WMA, Sorvino additionally by manager Gene Fox and Carey additionally by Talent Entertainment Group's Suzan Bymel. Carey stars in Columbia Pictures' upcoming "All That Glitters." Sorvino, who most recently starred in the A&E telefilm "The Great Gatsby," took home a supporting actress Oscar in 1996 for "Mighty Aphrodite."

Walters, repped by Writers and Artists Agency, next stars in John McNaughton's "Speaking of Sex" and the indie feature "Rain."

Mermaid Mariah
 For class, we had to create a person in a costume represents any number between 1-10! So I did a mermaid representing the #5 and it came out pretty nice. I finished early, so I started to sketch and created Mariah as a mermaid and her tail making the letter "m" and her holding onto the "c!" It was suppose to be the logo for the top of this site but I didn't like it that much and I tried to color it but it didn't look any better, ha ha! So I added it to the cartoon section, and if you want to check it out bigger then below, check out the Cartoon section of Mariah Daily.

Mariah gave Luis love...
 Anna told me that according to Gordo Y Flaca, Luis was asked what present Mariah gave him for his birthday and he said, "Amor, Much Amor." Translated it means, "Love, a lot of Love."

Lover Boy like Heartbreaker Remix
 As I reported earlier in the week, my friend Mari met Mariah in Spain and Mariah played her new song Lover Boy for Mari. Mari is Spanish, so she typed out her entire story about Mariah and my other spanish friend, Minerva, is translating Mari's story into English so we can all read it on the site here. Minerva said she is hoping to have it done Friday, so we will see.

However, Mari told me that Lover Boy sounds sort of like the Heartbreaker Remix but with even more rhythm and beats. She also said that Mariah does a lot of high notes in it!! So this is really starting to get exciting and I just had to throw in this little tidbit!

Mariah Carey and Luis Miguel at Luis' birthday.
The Mexican Magazine Tv y Novelas published exclusive pictures from the 31st birthday of the pop Mexican singer Luis Miguel with his girlfriend Mariah Carey, in Marbella, Spain. The couple had dinner in a expensive restaurant and Luis Miguel had a cake and serenade. No one knows what the singer gave to her boyfriend but days before he gave her a diamond bracelet estimated in US$1,420 millions and she was using that at the dinner. The bracelet was the same used by Julia Roberts at the Oscar ceremony and was designed by Van Cleeff and Arpel.

Many thanks to Mariah Library for this translation.

Summer Releases Look Hot This Year

LOS ANGELES (AP) - It's same-old, same-old time in Hollywood. Predictably, summer blockbuster season is bursting with sequels, remakes, the odd adaptation of a video game and the latest Julia Roberts romantic comedy.

Yet somehow, the same-old, same-old has a fresher feel this year, offering a solid mix of the tried-and-true and some interesting newcomers.

Unlike last summer, which began with a bang but took a box-office dive come August, likely hits appear to be spread throughout the season right to Labor Day.

``There's big films straight through,'' said Bruce Snyder, head of distribution for 20th Century Fox, whose summer lineup includes ``Planet of the Apes.'' ``Trying to find a place to put a movie is impossible. This summer is loaded.''

And though studios may have long-term trouble with potential dual strikes by writers and actors unions, the industry's short-term health looks great.

``This will be the biggest summer in history, no doubt,'' said Joe Roth, former Disney studio chief who recently formed Revolution Studios and is directing Roberts' romance ``America's Sweethearts.'' ``I can identify at least 10 movies off the top of my head that will gross over $100 million.''

Among those, ``Pearl Harbor,'' which blows into theaters over Memorial Day weekend. Directed by Michael Bay and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer - whose explosive collaborations include ``Armageddon'' and ``The Rock'' - ``Pearl Harbor'' could well be the war spectacle to end all war spectacles.

``It's an enormously exciting drama,'' Bruckheimer said. ``I think it captures the chaos, the pathos, the heroism experienced by the men and women who lived through it.''

The movie traces the romance and friendship involving two pilots (Ben Affleck and Josh Hartnett) and a Navy nurse (Kate Beckinsale). After fighting with an American squadron in the Battle of Britain, Affleck's character arrives in Honolulu the day before the attack on Pearl Harbor, where Hartnett and Beckinsale's characters are stationed.

Other big films include ``A.I. Artificial Intelligence,'' Steven Spielberg's return to science fiction; the World War II romance ``Captain Corelli's Mandolin,'' with Nicolas Cage; Disney's animated saga ``Atlantis: The Lost Empire,'' featuring the voice of Michael J. Fox; Mariah Carey's lead-actress debut in ``All That Glitters''; a new version of ``Rollerball''; the computer-animated fable ``Shrek,'' with the voices of Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz and Eddie Murphy; John Singleton's inner-city drama ``Baby Boy''; the video-game adaptations ``Tomb Raider,'' with Angelina Jolie, and ``Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within,'' the first full-length film using semi-realistic human characters created by computer; and Ivan (``Ghostbusters'') Reitman's ``Evolution,'' a space-invaders comedy starring David Duchovny and Julianne Moore.

To check out the rest of this very long article, check out this link! Only AOL users can check out the longer article, but it doesn't mention Mariah anymore!!

New Mariah Message...
 Mariah has left a new message on her Official Website and this time, we get a little message from Luis!! In the message, she talks about her experience with Mari, the girl who Mariah pulled up on the boat to meet Luis!! Check out the transcript below, courtesy of Shayne from Mariah Buzz. If you would like to use this transcript on your site though, please credit Mariah Buzz and NOT Mariah Daily and make sure you ask their permisson first!

Mariah: "Hi! Yeah, I do believe that this is my second night in my first apartment. Can you believe this is my first apartment that I ever owned in my life? Yeah, quite like it. Pretty stellar. And I just wanted to say thank you for making it possible and, umm, I'm here lying in the nice bed and things of that sort. Getting ready to put out the nice single pretty soon. I'm almost ready to do that. All the reports on the internet though, are fake about, like, the times and the titles of the songs. Well don't believe that hype or the nonsense. So, anyway, I just wanted to say that when I was in Spain, there was some really, really nice fans who waited outside, sleeping in the cold and you guys, you really, really upset me with that because I get nervous for you and I didn't even know you were there and the fanbooks and the letters were great, so thank you for that. And, umm, anyway, thank you for everything else. And, umm, almost ready to put out the nice single and shoot the video so, umm, I guess I will holla back at some point. Somebody wants to say a very quick hello. Hold on..

Luis Miguel (Mariah's boyfriend): Hello! Holla!
Mariah: *Laughs* A random Spanish man somehow crept into the room. Both laugh...
Mariah: I don't know who it is! And neither do you! But, you might! OK, say bye.
Luis: Bye. Adios.
Mariah: Oh! You can say more than that in Spanish! *whispers* Say nice things like, "I'm having a nice night."
Luis: *laughs* OK. Have a nice night...
Mariah: NO! In Spanish!
Luis: ..and. Why?
Mariah: Because you speak, I wanna hear you say Spanish. It's sexy. Both laugh...
Luis: OK. Tengan una bonita noche todos un beso cariñoso, cuidense. Bye! (Have a nice night, a lovely kiss. Take care. Bye!)
Mariah: *laughs* Bye! Yeah that was cute. I like when he speaks Spanish. *laughs*

Mariah Daily Picture Gallery Up and Running
 After over a week, Mariah Daily's Picture Gallery is up and running again! It took me 1 hour to move all the pictures to the gallery and to add a whole heck of a lot of BRAND NEW pictures. Gallery 50 was completed with the first pictures of Mariah and Luis and then I also filled up new brand new galleries, Gallery 51 and Gallery 52.

Eva sent me scans of Hola and two different issues of TvYNovelas. You can check out the TvyNovelas pictures in the April 17th and April 24th issues. On the right, you can see a picture of Mariah and Luis at the table and Luis blowing out his candles. It's a cool picture, so make sure you check it out in Gallery 52!

Plus, Mini sent me some nice scans that are older but not in the picture galleries and you can check out those pics in Gallery 52. Ibraheem sent me the scan from this weeks PEOPLE magazine (April 30th), which features a nice picture of Mariah from the All That Glitters set, which you can check out in All That Glitters #2 I do believe all these pictures should keep you busy for a while, hee hee!

Craving with Mariah
 Here is what Adam told me:
Hey Regina, over my Spring Break, I got this book called, "Billboard Number One Hits" from 1997. It obviously has Mariah in it, twelve times in fact, up to Honey, and under Always Be My Baby, it has some information that I didn't know; I'm not sure if you know this. It says that the source of Crave's name is from an unreleased Mariah song, and, as she says, "It's a secret. One day I'll talk about it."

Mariah on Extra
 Mariah was on Extra Monday night and basically it was everything we already knew! They showed various shots of Mariah and Luis in Spain, which you can check out caps below that my friend Alex (sandranews.com) made exclusively for Mariah Daily, and talked about how Mariah is now making more than Janet at Virgin. They also mentioned how Mariah went into the yacht and came out with the 1 million dollar braclet. There was an interview with Mariah but not a new one. Thanks again to Alex for the help on the caps!

(Pictures were moved...check out Gallery 52)


Mariah Daily Picture Gallery STILL down
 I still can't add any new pics to Mariah Daily Picture Gallery! It seems that Xoom is working on the problem though because it is starting to work a little better then before. Sorry for the lack o' updates on the picture gallery but as soon as Xoom comes back up, all the pictures will be removed from the NEWS section and added to the picture gallery! Thanks!


Magazine News...
 Javi told me you can check out Mariah in Hola, Diez Minuto and Que Me Dices. In Que Me Dices, there is a little soap opera featuring Mariah and Luis & Mini found out where you can check it out on the net. Go to www.qmd.navegalia.com/qmd and click on the picture of Mariah and Luis that says, "El culebrón de la semana presenta a:Luis Miguel y Mariah Carey en." It has a bunch of edited pics of the two, check it out, it's funny!

My buddy Mark was really kind and scanned all the pictures from Diez Minuto and Semana!! Check out the scans below:

Emotions gets sampled
 Here is what Eric told me:
I'm not sure if you already know this or not, but there is a DJ named Sami Dee who sampled Emotions for a record called "Fly'in High."  It's not a remix of Emotions, just a sample of the song.  The particular part sampled is "I feel good, I feel nice, I've never felt so satisfied.  I'm in love, I'm a live, intoxicated, flying high."  It's actually quite good.


Mariah gets $317,567.55 per minute
 Mariah Carey's new deal with Virgin Records will net the singer $117 million for five albums, or $23.5 million per disc. Assuming each CD is 74 minutes long, that means she'll be earning $317,567.55 per minute, or $5,292.79 a second. Minimum wage in the United States, meanwhile, is holding steady at $5.15 an hour. All That Glitters, indeed.

Thanks to Butterfly Web for this information.


Info for Oz...
 Here is what Shayne from Mariah Buzz told me:
Well I called Columbia Pictures this morning and of the two people I spoke to, they told me the only info they had about ATg was that it's still in production and to probably expect it sometime next year...they sounded totally clueless. But I was speaking to the label manager of Virgin Records Oz this morning aswell and she told me that Virgin Oz will be releasing the album in August (27th would be a good guess) to coincide with the movie which I assume will be released here the first week Of September...7th to take an exact guess. I'd say the manager of Virgin would know best.

    EXCLUSIVE...One Lucky Lamb...
     Mari met Mariah a couple times before and Mariah knows Mari has a butterfly tattoo on her back!! When Mariah saw Mari in the crowd in Spain, she brought Mari on the boat because she wanted to show Luis the tattoo! Mari will send me a very descriptive story about everything that happened, but right now she is so tired. She met Mariah again, right before she left to come back home to New York City yesterday! Mari sent me some scans of some of the pics she took and plus, once you read this little story, you will understand how HUGE of a heart Mariah has!! I think I just gained even more respect for her, if that is even possible!! So enjoy...

    Hi Reg!
    I have come back today from Marbella. This morning Mariah travelled to NY! This morning Mariah let me hear again her new single LoverBoy. She told me: "You are the first who listen to my new single" She was sooo cute and sweet! I´ll tell you all the story, but now I need a rest! I´ll send to Minerva the story and she will translate it in english. Mariah was so sweet again with me! Mariah saw me and she took me into the ship with her and Luismi. Then she gave me a big, sweet and long hug. I was crying and she told me near my ear (so sweetly): I love you, a beautiful girl".We were just 2 fans this time, sleeping all nights in the street and at 7am the bodyguard sent us breakfast (from Mariah), autographs, and a cute toy and a draw for me! she´s sooooo nice!!!! I´ll send you pix soon!

    EXCLUSIVE...Mariah in NYC
     Eva just told me that Mariah and Luis left yesterday for London and at this moment are on their way to NYC. They will probably be back home either tonight or early tomorrow morning!! This news came from Luis Miguel's press conference in Spain, where Gemma Asensi (sister to Luis's manager) reported this information right before the press conference ended.

    This is the first time that Mariah will be in NYC since the whole birthday package was sent to her. SO, let's hope she gets it now!!!


    Mariah Interview from MTV Europe
     Reporter: "Regular viewers of the show will remember that Mariah Carey has left Columbia, label that lunched her career and is incidentally also the home of her ex-husband, for a new contract with Virgin and not content to merely skin the surface of investigative journalism, MTV interviewed Mariah to find out exactly what it was about the record breaking multi million dollar deal that attracted her attention"

    MARIAH: "I know a lot of artists signed on the label and they're very happy and umm I just feel like it's a great place to start, and the other thing is, my accountant's name is Rod Nash, which rhymes with cash, *laugh* and mine is flying out the window, *laugh* so what he needs to do now is put a pad lock on it before I wind up on my own behind ......"

    Many thanks to my buddy Liron for this information!!!!

    Glitter hits theaters November 9th in Britain...
     Hamza sent me the following article taken from Popcorn and the very last line, it says that Glitter will hit screens on November 9th in Britain!:

    It may seem a long way off yet, but Spidey fans might want to pay attention to this next piece of news. The live-action version of the popular 'Spider-Man' cartoon will be released in the UK on May 10 2002. See, we told you it was a long way off.

    The project is currently filming under Sam Raimi's watchful eye, with Tobey Maguire playing the webbed-one. The normally blonde Kirsten Dunst has turned redhead in order to play Peter Parker/Spider-Man's love interest Mary-Jane Watson.

    Filming has been taking place for over a month now, and plenty of leaks have already sprung up on the Internet revealing pictures of Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin outfit, along with Maguire's figure-hugging spider suit.

    The film has also been plagued with mishaps including the theft of several costumes. Columbia Pictures is so desperate to get the costumes back that it has been offering a $25,000 reward for their safe return.

    In other release news, Columbia has plumped for March 8, 2002 to release its thriller 'The Panic Room'. Jodie Foster has been working on the David Fincher-directed movie; Nicole Kidman had originally been set to star, but pulled out in January because of a recurring knee injury.

    And for all you Mariah Carey fans out there - go on, admit it, you love her - her movie debut 'All That Glitters' will be hitting British shores on November 9 this year. Ooh we just can't wait.


    New Picture...
     Well, I still can't add any pictures to the picture galleries, so I am adding the scans of Breakout below. Ruud sent me the scans of the new Breakout issue (April 19th) and as you can see, there is a new picture released! Yippppeeee! Click on them for the larger scans!

    411 on Luis's Birthday
     Here is what Anna told me:
    Reports and pictures of Luis's  birthday celebration in Marbella are coming in steadily. What we know so far is that there were lots of friends and fans in the disco, and as a courtesy to Mariah, the owner of the restaurant asked the patrons not to smoke. Mariah sang a birthday song to Luis, accompanied by Mariachis (Mexican musicians), and the guests sang the "chorus"; Mariah and Luis were dressed very nicely - Luis in a grey suit, Mariah in a short black dress - and that famous bracelet. They ate a nice, relaxed dinner, and then they brought out a huge chocolate birthday cake with candles (at which point Mariah sang).They partied and danced, and then at 3:00 a.m. they went back to their yacht.


    Mariah on Rock N Roll Jeopardy
     Here is what Jason told me:
    I am watching ROCK N ROLL JEOPARDY and the category was NEW YORKERS. I assumed Mariah would be an answers, and she was the $200 answer (in the first round). It said "This diva was born on Long Island on March 27, 1970." The contestants were celebrities and Meredith Brooks rang in and made a big deal how she was just making a guess...she guessed Mariah and was right, of course. The audience clapped.


    Radio Show
     Here is what Chipmunk26746@cs.com told me:
    hi i just wanted to tell you that on april 22nd there will be an online radio show for luis miguel's birthday. we are hoping that maybe mariah heard about it and maybe show might call and say something. you can go to www.idolo.com to hear it


    April 20, 2001...Update #3

    (Pictures were moved...check out Gallery 51)


    April 20, 2001...Update #2
    Glitter gets PG-13...most likely
     Ashley informed me that Mariah is in the Summer Preview section of Entertainment Weekly (April 27th). She sent me the scan of the article and I typed it out so you can also check it out below! Click the scan below for a larger version of the picture/article!

    All That Glitters
    Starring: Mariah Carey, Max Beesley, Ann Madnuson, Eric Benet, Shawtae Harrie (aka DaBrat)
    Written By: Kate Lanier
    Directed By: Vondie Curtis Hall

    What's The Big Deal? Could it fo for Carey what The Rose did for Better Midler?
    When Hall (Gridlock'd) got the call asking if he wanted to direct pop star Mairah Carye in her first starring role, his response was immediate and heartfelt: No. "Being an actor, I had this initial sort of prejudice about people are not [actors]," says the filmmaker. "I knew Mariah was a great singer, but I didn't know if she could ask." After viewing a screen test Carey had done, he changed his mind. The resulting film follows a Funny Girl/A Star Is Born template, the twist being that this time her heroine is a musically gifted New York homegirl.

    Beesley, who plays Carey's love interest, says he was "pleasantly surprised" at how natural an acress she was, "She just blew everything out the window with a very emotional performance." So, okay, she can ask as well as sing. And you may have noticed she's a looker, too. Which leads us to an unavoidable question: Does she do a nude scene? "No," laughs Hall, who aimed for a PG raiting. "But she does expose her bare midriff a lot." That's our gal! (August 31st)


    More New Pics of MC and Luis?
     Anna, Luis Correspondent of Mariah Daily, informed me that Mariah and Luis celebrated his birthday at a famous club in Marbella spain and that the place was full of t.v. people and other cameras. So we will probably be seeing some more new pictures of them shortly covering this.


    Mariah in Magazines
     Mark informed me that you can check out Mariah in the following 3 magazines:
    - Break Out (NL), The April 19th Issue.
    - De Telegraaf (NL), The April 19th Issue. (sold worldwide)
    - Veronica (NL), The April 21st Issue.

    Also, he said that there is 2 pages of Mariah in the Break Out issue above. He said he is going to send me scans tomorrow because Mariah looks incredible in the pictures!! So hopefully, if I keep bugging him, he will send them to me, so I can get them up on Mariah Daily, ha ha!


    News from Anna
     Here is what Anna told me:
    Well, all of the Luis Miguel fans worldwide have been celebrating his birthday since yesterday, because even though it's listed as "4-19-70" on his records, in actuality, he was born at 11:30 p.m.  the night before. His father put the wrong date, since it was so close to midnight.  No problem - he (and we) just celebrate both days! But the 19th is the "official date."

    Even though it's HIS birthday, a lot of  the news has been focused on that splendid gift he gave Mariah to celebrate her new contract.  A Mexican paper (La Reforma) has quoted the British press in saying that the bracelet Luis gave Mariah (the Van Cleef and Arpel one that Julia Roberts borrowed for the Oscars) is valued at $1.42 million dollars.

    This link to the Reforma article talks about the fabulous "millionaire" gift:
    http://reforma.com/espectaculos/articulo/088279/

    Now Mariah- what do you give the guy who has everything (including "you") and who gives out presents like THAT? :D

      The following article ( link below)  asks Luis's fans to help Mariah find the perfect gift for Luis, who has his own jet, his own yacht, and who has few needs beyond lots of suntan lotion! :)
    http://www.rinconlatino.com/content/es007215BC.html#loc1

    This link talks about Luis's birthday, his success as a recording artist,  and the plans for a private celebration with Mariah in Paris:

    Glitter Gets Revamped...
     I am working on the Glitter page now and hopefully, by the end of the day, it will fit the new design of Mariah Daily pretty much! Plus I am finally going to update this section with all the latest information we have on it!!


    April 20, 2001...Update #1
    Janet send MC flowers and says Welcome to the Family...
     Check out what Shannon told me:
    I was watching Muchmusic's Live @ Much w/ Janet Jackson and the interviewer, Master T, happened to mention the rumor swirling around Mariah and Janet.  He basically said there's been rumours flying around about Janet having animosity toward Mariah for breaking her record (of highest paid contract in history) and asked her to comment on it.  Janet replied that it wasn't true (of course!) and that she wouldn't be mad abut something like that because it's only reasonable to think that someone would come along and break your record.  She also said that she in fact sent Mariah flowers and a note that said "Welcome to the family."  I thought that was very sweet and cool of Janet to do :) 


    Gente Scans
     I sadly can still not add new pictures to the Mariah Daily Picture Galleries because my xoom account seems to still be down! So, I am forced once again, to add them here. As soon as my account comes back up though, I will be deleting these pictures from my main account and moving all the pics to the Picture Galleries.

    Nacho was VERY kind and sent me all the scans from Gente magazine. It seems they are not on the cover, as I reported yesterday, but there are some nice pics inside!
    (Pictures were moved...check out Gallery 51)


    El Gordo Y La Flaca
     Yesterday Art told me that Mariah and Luis would be featured on today's show El Gordo Y La Flaca. Shortly before the show aired, I figured out what channel and what time it would air. Basically, there was a 6 minute interview about everything that happened. They showed MC and Luis together on the yacht kissing and chilling and then they showed them before Luis's birthday celebration! However, they showed two other clips where they showed MC later at night getting off the yacht wearing a black jumpsuit that had "M" in red on the pants and top and also, they showed Luis and MC at a restaurant eating.


    Hola!
     Andrés sent me the scan of Hola Magazine and also, translated the article for us, which I thought was VERY nice! Check it all out below:

    Mariah Carey and Luis Miguel, two lovers in Marbella
    The Mexican singer visited her girlfriend, who is presently recording the soundtrack for her upcoming movie "All that Glitters" in Ronda.

    Breaking down all those rumours talking about a possible distancing, Mariah Carey and her boyfriend, Luis Miguel, appeared in this romantic attitude on board of a yacht that waited for them at Puerto Banús, to take them to Sotogrande. The singer had arrived before to Costa del Sol, where, namely in Ronda, she had been recording songs for the soundtrack of her upcoming movie All that Glitters for 10 days. This film will be Mariah's debut in the world of cinema. Luis Miguel travelled to Ronda last weekend to be beside her. These images are the best evidence of the fact that their love is unstoppable. Mariah and Luis Miguel had dinner at Puerto Banús, after a tiring day, during which the enjoy the sun and the calm of the sea on board of a yacht.

    The best ballad-singer, who was married to Tomy Mottola, chief executive of Sony Records (he has recently married another singer, Thalia), has signed a fabulous contract with the record company Virgin, who has paid her 6,000 million pesetas (the best paid singer at present) (approx. 40 million dollars). So she has not only divorced her husband, from a sentimental point of view, but also from a professional one.


    Mariah's Gift
     This next article was sent to me by John It's an article from The Sun in Ireland. Basically it says that Luis bought Mariah the same exact bracelet that Julia Roberts wore at the Oscars this year. The bracelet is said to cost 1 million dollars.

    The paper also says... "Mega-rich Spanish singer Luis Miguel amazed Mariah with gift aboard his luxury yacht in Puerto Banus in southern Spain...where Mariah is using her time in Spain to record the soundtrack album to the appropriately named 'All That Glitters', the movie she is starring in as a young singer desperate for fame."


    April 19, 2001...
    Mariah on People.com and on cover of Gente
     Anna, one of Mariah Daily's Luis Correspondents, told me that you can check out two new pictures of Mariah on People.com's website. I added them below for you all to check out. Just click on them to view larger!

    Nacho told me that Mariah appears on the cover of Gente magazine and he should be sending me the scans tomorrow afternoon. I'll have them up for Friday's update!


    Mariah on cover of ETC!
     Abd Jalil sent me a magazine called ETC from Malaysia that features Mariah on the cover. It is the March 1-15 issue and inside there is a 7 page article about MC, which includes a new Glitter picture from the set (check out larger version on your right). I will be adding all the scans to Gallery 51 but sadly XOOM, the host of Mariah Daily's picture gallery, is still down and I can not load the pictures to the server. So I am forced to add them below, which I bet a lot of you don't mind that! I tried to keep them large enough, so you can check out the article.

    Two of the pics were edited too, including the two images taken from the Heartbreaker Single. They took off "Heartbreaker" off of MC's shirt and on the image from the back cover of heartbreaker, they added a tube top onto Mariah, which was funny! Check them out.

    (Pictures were moved...check out Gallery 51)


    Mariah Official Site Updated
     Check out MariahCarey.com for new screensavers from Mariah. They are basically just images from the Photo Galleries and I only downloaded the last one, which features 3 pictures of Mariah that change every couple o' seconds. I was told that more images will be added for Window Users and it says on the site that soon MAC screen savers will be added.

    It can easily be told that Mariah's team are working hard on the website for us and I think they are doing a wonderful job on her site! So for anyone who is complaining about anything on the website, be greatful for everything they are doing for us!!


    Mariah and Julia...
     Honey and Kate made a cute little image showing the fact that Julia and MC are wearing the same bracelet. The only difference is that Julia borrowed this very expensive diamond bracelet for the Oscars and Mariah was given it from Luis, her "honey," as reported in yesterday's article!


    Mariah on Leute Heute
     Honey and Kate also translated an interview Mariah did recently on a German TV show called "Leute Heute." Check it out below:

    when they asked her if the story for "glitter" was autobiographical, she said the following:
    "No, the story doesn't have to do anything with my life. If it would be my life story, you'd have to shoot like a mini series, we'd probably need 3 different parts. Oh, and also we wouldn't be able to show it on TV, becoz some people would have big problems with it." (laughs)
    Mariah also talked about her career and she seemed very happy:
    "Right now it's not about what I regret, or negative things which I feel for some people, or whatever happened in my past. It's all about moving forward. I'm very grateful for what I have."
    And when they asked if there'd be any time left for her private life, our Queen Chop just said:
    (laughs) "Of course I still have time for my private life. Right now I'm pretty busy but of course I take care of me."


    You Want Mariah? You Talk To Tommy!
     Shontee sent me the story from Talk Magazine. I took it directly from her NEWS page, so make sure you check that out!! I was really shocked when I read this article but the only thing that bothers me is how could A.J. Benza remember everything said from 1997 unless he recorded when he talked to her in the club and when he talked to her on the phone? Anyhow check it out below!

    Talk Magazine Article of May 2001
    A.J. Benza

    I had heard Tommy Mottola and Mariah Carey were having difficulties and that the songbird was looking to fly the coop.  And, in fact, there at the nightclub was Mariah huddled with New York shortstop Derek Jeter on what turned out to be the first night the future lovers ever hun out. But I didn't let it interfere with my mission. I was friends with Mottola ten and had told him I'd help his wife out. I threw back my fifth gin and tonic and headed over to the velvet couch where Carey, Jeter, and a bunch of her friends were sitting. "Okay," I said, "I got direct orders from your husband to talk to you. You okay with that?"

    "Oh greatanother one who takes orders from my husband," Mariah shot back. "Listen, I'm my own man," I said. " I just want to talk to you a little bit and clear up some of the bad press you get". "And how do I know you're not ging to give me more bad press?" "Because I already arranged it with your husband what we're going to talk about and all,"I said,"It's gonna be fine." "So, let me get this straight: You and him decided what you and I are going to talk about" Jesus, this one was a tough nut to crack. But suddenly I was falling for her and I didn't give a damn who her husband was. Or that the Yankees' star was sweating her as I leaned over him to get some quotes. It wouldn't have been the first time I fell for a woman in a nightclub. "I have to ask you bout your marriage,"I said. "We on the record or off?" "we're off, Way off" "We're fine," Mariah said, "People want to spread rumors and cause trouble. But we're fine" I knew she was lying like a rug, but I was giong to write that her marriage was fine just so I could placate my new friend Motola. With the weight my column carried around that time, I considered it a tremendous servie to the little big guy. Maybe it was the gin talking, but I looked at Mariah Carey the-and I just dove right in. "Listen," I said "I want to call you sometime,but I don't wand to have to go through the Pentagon to do it. You ever come down from that ivory tower? You're 26,for God's sake" She laughed, but it was a good laugh, and I walked out of the place with Mariah Carey's phone number in my back pocket. I jumped into my Benz,put the top down,and listened to Sly Stone sing "M" Lady" Who was cooler than me? A week or two later I decided to give Mariah a call, but when I dialed the number she'd scribbled on the napkin the answering machine came on with a routine from the Jerky Boys CD. I dialed again and got the sme thing. Stupidly, I called Mottola then,to find out what was what. "Tommy, I'm trying to get a hold of Mariah to ask her a question about an item I'm writting and the number I'm dialing-" Mottola cut me off real fast. "what's the number she gave you?" I read it to him "Listen to Me,"he said "That ain't the number. Throw it out. If you wand to get to Mariah, you call me and I'll get her for you. Understand? "sure," I said. "No problem." At that moment it dawned on me Mariah Carey had given me a number, a private number, that her husband wasn't hip to. A few minutes later she called me herself. "You told Tommy I gave you that number?" "Yeah, what did I know? I just thought it was a service or something,and then I heard that Jerky Boys stuff and I didn't know what was going on" "Listen," Mariah said. "That is my numbe. He just hates when I get calls that he doesn't clear first" Jesus Christ, I thought to myself. Bad marriage or not, I was being half a scumbag with another guy's wife. I was happier than hell it was a sexy international pop star.

    DUELING DIVAS VIE FOR VIRGIN TERRITORY
    April 18, 2001 -- Curvy crooner Janet Jackson is reportedly furious at Virgin Records for signing rival sexy songbird Mariah Carey for a record $23.5 million per album - while she pulls in a comparatively paltry $10 million. The division between the dueling divas also is fueled by Jackson's fears that the mega-company's whopping generosity to Carey suggests Jackson's new album will take a back seat to Carey's next work when it comes to promoting them. "Janet considered herself the reigning diva at Virgin before they signed Mariah, and now she's worried that the label will spend more time and effort promoting Mariah's albums than hers - she has been kicking up a big fuss," an industry insider told The Post. Jackson's new album, "All For You," is due out Tuesday. Jackson - known for her demanding ways - wants the release of Carey's upcoming album, "All That Glitters," pushed back by several months, the source said. Carey's album has been slated for release in late July or early August. "An album's life is usually three to four months," the insider said. "Janet wants to make sure that the album is not shunted in any way." Jackson's rep, Paul Freundlich, scoffed at the reported rivalry and insiders' claims that his client was miffed at Virgin's multimillion-dollar deal with Carey. "This is absolutely the silliest thing I have ever heard," Freundlich said. "Janet has the No. 1 single and is poised for one of the biggest albums of the year. She certainly has no animosity." But sources insist that the diva is annoyed. "Mariah is No. 1 at Virgin now," the industry insider said. A Virgin spokesman denied that any animosity exists between the songbirds. "People have been asking Janet about this, but she doesn't have a problem at all," he said. Jackson's "All for You" - with a No. 1 single already on the charts - is the hotly anticipated follow-up to her wildly successful album "The Velvet Rope" in 1997. The new album - dedicated to rapper Sean "Puff Daddy" Combs - could be her raunchiest yet. In "Love Scene (Ooh Baby)," for example, the singer reportedly uses the F-word and fantasizes about a lover playing with her body, while she moans seductively at the end of "Would You Mind." But if it came down to an album popularity showdown with the red-hot Carey, the competition would be plenty stiff, since anything Carey releases is a sure-fire hit. Jackson also could have a personal reason to be jealous of Carey as well. Jackson's estranged hubby, Rene Elizondo Jr., has sued her for more than $10 million since their split, while Carey is in the midst of a hot-and-heavy love affair with Latin heartthrob singer Luis Miguel.

    Mariah in Rolling Stone
     Check out Mariah in the new issue of Rolling Stone magazine with Tommy and Pam on the cover. MC is on page 28 and I am told it is a very nice picture of Mariah and it talks about how she signed with Virgin Records. Many thanks to Dan for this information.


    MARIAH: bejeweled
     The love affair between Mariah Carey and Latin heartthrob Luis Miguel is going strong. Miguel joined Carey last weekend in Spain, where she's recording the soundtrack to "All That Glitters" for Virgin records. During a celebration over her new mega-recording contract, Miguel presented her with a gorgeous Van Cleef & Arpel diamond bracelet. "It is the same bracelet Julia Roberts borrowed for the Oscars," said a source. A rep for Carey declined comment on the extravagant gift but said, "They are very happy together."

    Mariah and Luis...
     Well, I have a bunch of pictures of Mariah and Luis from this weekend in Spain and I tried to upload them to the picture gallery but it is temporaily down. SO, I am adding them below, but I will be removing tomorrow most likely and adding them back to Xoom! All the pictures are pretty much courtesy of Eva and Anna, who spent a lot of time searching. Some of them are exclusive to this site too!

    (Pictures were moved...check out Gallery 50)

    If you want to check out a cool interview with Mariah plus footage of Mariah and Luis running around, check out the realvideo below. Many thanks to Antonio and Eva for giving me permission to use this on Mariah Daily. Click Here for Video

    Plus, Javier told me that many people believe that these are shots for Mariah's new video "Loverboy!" Nini said that Ocurrio Asi reported that Mariah is 7 weeks pregnant. One of the reasons why she might be shooting the video so early is because soon she will start to be showing. However, this is all rumors and nothing has been confirmed!


    Mariah Care-free
     Vicki was VERY nice and sent me scans from yesterdays "The Sun" (April 16th). The two pictures are below and here is the article:

    SONGBIRD FROLICS WITH HER LATIN LOVER
    SEXY Mariah Carey enjoys a sizzling kiss - and shows she hasn't a care in the world. The songbird, 30, radiated happiness as she canoodled with Latin lover Luis Miguel, 31, on a boat. Mariah looked sensational in a skimpy white bikini as she perched on Mexican singer Luis's lap at the Spanish resort of Marbella. The busty beauty was taking her first break for months after working flat out to record a new album.

    Translation
     Maria did a translation of yesterdays article! Here it is:
    Mariah Carey and Luis Miguel, together in Marbella (Spain).
    Last Friday night Port Banus had more stars than usual. The northamerican singer Mariah Carey and the idol of Latin ballads, Luis Miguel, one of the most popular couples of the moment, explored and had dinner in this coastal area, taking advantage of the filming of Carey's new video. After the strenous filming (in which dozens of papparazzi and reporters participated), yesterday was a day of relaxation. Carey, who took a dip in the Marbellan waters at noon, and the Mexican star traveled to Sotogrande, where, during their dinner, Luis gave Mariah a present. The video filmed in Port Banus is for Mariah's next single from her next album. The new CD will come out under Virgin, after she left CBS Records (her ex-husband's label, who is now married to Thalia, the famous Mexican singer).

    EXCLUSIVE...Mariah and Luis on the Yacht
     Here are two lovely pictures of Mariah and Luis on the yacht in Spain!! Mariah's Official Spanish club sent them to me, which I really appreciate!!

    Here is the Spanish article that goes with the pictures:

    Mariah Carey y Luis Miguel, juntos en Marbella La noche del pasado viernes contó con más estrellas de las habituales en Puerto Banús. La cantante norteamericana Mariah Carey y el ídolo de la balada latina Luis Miguel, una de las parejas sentimentales más populares del momento, pasearon y cenaron en esta zona costera, aprovechando el rodaje de un videoclip de Carey. Después de la ardua filmación (en la que participaron como extras los numerosos periodistas y reporteros gráficos concentrados ante la visita de los dos cantantes), ayer fue un día de relax. Carey, que se dio un baño en las playas malagueñas al mediodía, y el astro mexicano se desplazaron hasta Sotogrande donde, en el transcurso de una cena, Luis Miguel le dio a su novia un obsequio. El videoclip rodado en Puerto Banús corresponde al próximo sencillo del nuevo álbum de Mariah Carey, el nuevo en la compañía Virgin, después de romper con CBS (la discográfica de su ex marido, Tony Mottola, ahora casado con la también cantante Thalía).


    Mariah is a WINNER
     Molly sent me a scan of the April 16th issue of TIME Magazine. Inside, it says that Mariah is a Winner for her deal with Virgin. Sneak peak is to your right of what the picture looks like and check out the full scan in Gallery 50! Thanks Molly!

    Winner: Mariah Carey
    Diva inks industry-high $80 mil. deal with Virgin. Spares her the need to hawk anyone's cola.


    Mariah on PINK site?
     If you check out Pink's Official Site in the LINKS section, there is a Mariah Carey link to a fan page that isn't updated anymore! It's somewhat odd though that a Mariah site would be featured on Pink's site??? Thanks to KrzyMcKid17 for this information.


    A Lesson With "Hero"
     Steph found a lesson plan for kids that uses the song Hero. You can check it out by clicking here and I also pasted everything below! It's kind of neat that teachers use this song as a study topic.

    Lesson 15
    And Then a Hero Comes Along:
    Building Critical Thinking Skills

    Rationale:
    Popular music can serve as a valuable vehicle for stimulating creative thinking. It can help to reinforce basic concepts while providing entertainment for students and teachers. The use of listening skills and higher-order thinking skills can assist students in the development of critical and evaluative learning techniques. By utilizing the theory of multiple intelligences and the seven intelligences, proposed by Howard Gardner in his book Frames of Mind, students can increase their ability to problem solve.

    Objectives: The student will be able to:
    locate descriptive passages in the lyrics of the song "Hero" by Mariah Carey;
    list characteristics of real heroes;
    compare and contrast current heroes with heroes of the past;
    recognize heroes or significant contributors to history;
    utilize an expository prompt to write a paper.

    Materials:
    CD/tape player; music and lyrics for "Hero;" writing prompt, grading rubic.

    Time Frame: 2-3 class periods.

    Audience:
    Suggested for middle school students.

    Procedures:
    Play the song "Hero" and permit time for students to listen and reflect on the lyrics.
    Allow students time to write answers to the following questions individually:
    Is "Hero" a good title for this song?
    What do you think the artist meant when she sang the lyrics, "There's a hero if you look inside your heart."
    What descriptive words or phrases in the song make you think of a hero?
    Form groups and have students brainstorm their ideas together.
    Have each group write the list of descriptors on the board and review them orally as a class. Possible descriptors include:
    has heart survives faces the world alone casts fear aside strength to carry on holds on believes in tomorrow melts sorrow reaches out love has soul truth dreams searches has hope
    Pose this problem to the class to solve; "Who are the real heroes/heroines today? Why do you think these people are heroes?" Have groups create a chart with three columns. Column one should have the name of current heroes, column two should be titled characteristics that make them a hero and the third column should name a hero from the past who compares to this current hero.

    Evaluation:
    Evaluation can be completed by teacher observation of student interaction and completed projects. Expository writing sample could be evaluated through the use of a standard four point writing rubic for holistic scoring.

    Selected Recording:
    "Hero" (Columbia 53205)
    Mariah Carey (1993)

    Suggested Background Reading:
    Gardner, Howard (1993). Multiple Intelligences: The Theory and Practice. New York, New York: Basic Books.


    Mariah Mentioned on Grand Tour
     My very good friend and one of Mariah Daily's Luis Correspondents, Anna, just got back from from a very nice vacation. One of her spots that she checked out was Italy and here is some cool information she shared with me that you all might enjoy:

    Italy was fantastic - loved it!  There were so many beautiful places we visited, the people were very friendly, and the weather was perfect  - a little cool, but sunny.  Of course, one of the highlights was Capri, where I spent my birthday!  It was extra exciting to be in the city where Luis and Mariah have enjoyed some wonderful vacations. in fact, the hotel where our group stayed was just around the corner from one of the hotels where they've stayed; I heard Mariah's name mentioned by some people in an exclusive men's clothing store, and the tour director told us the news about Mariah's record breaking contract signing while we were on the tour bus.   That led to a discussion of Mariah's visits to Capri, and he (the tour director) said "she recorded her last album, Rainbow, here, and she and her boyfriend, the very famous Latin singer Luis Miguel, have vacationed here several times. They have stayed in the most luxurious hotels on the island, as well as on their yacht.  When they (Luis and Mariah) were here in May of last year, they had a dinner party where the food was prepared by Mariah's favorite chef, Franco.  I don't know how much the dinner cost, but Mariah tipped them between $2-3,000 dollars, so you can imagine that is was an expensive dinner party! Also, Luis Miguel arranged for a band of musicians and singers to greet Mariah when she arrived, and then had a huge fireworks display set off for her.... it was quite spectacular!"


    Bits O' Info...
     Here is two information tidbits I received on Miss Mariah...

    April 15, 2001...Happy Easter
    Two lovers in Marbella
     Eva translated the following article for us. You can check out the Spanish version of this article by clicking here.

    After they signed autographes and revealed that she feels happy, Mariah Carey, reunited in the Port of Marbella with Luis Miguel

Far from fleeing from her admirers, Carey let myself accompany by the multitude, with which walk the passage of about 200 meters between the harbor enclosure and the boat, from which out interprets Mexican to receive it, informed the average premises. The famous singer signed autographes and said she felt happy for being in Spain.

Hopefully soon, we will get a bigger scan. Thanks to Eva for this information and if you can read Spanish, check out the article below:

    ¡Qué pareja 'mar bella'!
    Luis Miguel y Mariah Carey pasan Semana Santa en el Mediterráneo
    Por Gabriel Garza/Reforma
    Para disfrutar los días de Semana Santa, Luis Miguel y Mariah Carey visitaron Marbella, España, donde pasearon por Puerto Banús, al igual que cientos de turistas, incluso posaron para las fotos y hasta firmaron autógrafos. Para sorpresa de los transeúntes que disfrutaban de la noche, de un automóvil sedán Mercedes conducido por dos fornidos hombres se bajaron los intérpretes con la intención de pasear en el paradisiaco lugar del Mediterráneo como cualquier pareja de enamorados.

    Carey lució radiante, ataviada con un vestido rojo, unas sandalias negras y un llamativo brazalete en la muñeca izquierda, ¿sería acaso aquella joya de 15 mil dólares que le obsequió el cantante en noviembre pasado después de una discusión?

    Por su parte, el intérprete mexicano dejó ver un elegante traje oscuro con una camisa azul sin corbata. A pesar de que en un principio no tuvieron inconveniente en saludar a la gente de su alrededor y dejarse fotografiar, quizás no calcularon la cantidad de fanáticos que los reconocerían; por lo mismo, el paseo comenzó a convertirse en una situación incómoda y, hasta cierto punto, riesgosa.

    Para evitar el acoso de los seguidores que rodeaban a la pareja, dos hombres de color, guardaespaldas de la estadounidense, intervinieron llevándose a la intérprete de "Hero", mientras otro elemento de seguridad escoltó a Luis Miguel para conducirlo a otro sitio con su amada.

    El intérprete de "O Tú o Ninguna" aprovechó su estancia en España para vacacionar, ya que días atrás tenía programado escuchar en Madrid un lista de 18 temas escritos por el productor Juan Carlos Calderón para su próximo álbum.

    Mariah in Mira
     April and Prinie told me that you can check out Mariah in the latest issue of Mira Magazine. There is a decent size pictures of Mariah sitting on Luis's lap. I believe it is the picture taken at the party after the World Music Awards in 2000! The title of the pic asks whether they are going to be parents or not!


    Mariah on T.V. in Israel
     Ayala told me that on VH1 Europe, they will be playing 10 of the best of Mariah Carey on Tuesday (Israel time=8pm) and on Wednesday there is going to be another show on MC at 12:30 am and a rerun on 12:30 pm! If you are in the area, check it out!


    Damage
     Damage might be a big noise on the R&B scene but their singer Jade Jones has perfected the art of keeping quiet about his three-year relationship with one of the world's biggest pop stars.

    Despite his group needing all the publicity they can get, Jade has always been reluctant to talk about his pairing with Baby Spice Emma Bunton - in fact, the two are almost exact opposites of the Posh And Becks media roadshow. "I firmly believe that romance is a private thing," states the slim vocalist, who is the youngest of 11 children. "People like Geri Halliwell and Chris Evans use those type of relationships to advance themselves, but it's not my way. I'd rather keep my relationship as private as possible."

    Yet things are becoming more public as Baby, 25, appears on Damage's new album Since You've Been Gone, performing an intimate duet with her man."Yeah, but she's there as an artist in her own right, not as my girlfriend," retorts the 22-year-old. "For me, Emma can sing better than most of the other Spice Girls. When I heard Holler, I thought she rocked it with her ad libs and things." The couple were introduced by Mel B when the Spice Girls were performing in Manchester. The lyric of their duet, I Don't Know, gives a greater insight into the pair's involvement with each other.

    "When I see a girl like you I just gotta take control," sings Jade while the rest of the band harmonise. "Someone for what I want, I guess I'm being bold." Emma, who'd previously dated England footballer Rio Ferdinand, croons back, "I think that you and me have a certain chemistry, that's one thing I must say. And I'd like to know you better, starting from today."

    Hip New York DJ Stretch Armstrong has provided a mix for the release and US R&B star Joe Thomas Jnr wrote the first hit single, Ghetto Romance, from the album. The group met Joe after Damage singer Rahsaan Bromfield formed a friendship with Mariah Carey while they were both on Ian Wright's TV show. The multi-million-selling singer invited him and his girlfriend to her millennium party in Acapulco and then later asked Damage to join her European tour. "When I brought the news about Mariah to the group they were like, 'Yeah, right'," says Rahsaan, 24. "Then a week later we got a call saying to get ourselves to Madrid to join the tour." On Since You've Been Gone, the fivesome have come out with a plethora of new haircuts, fancy clothes and a slick image courtesy of the big bucks of their new record company EMI. It's been three years since the release of their debut album Forever, recorded when Jade was himself a mere babe. They first hit the chart in October 1996 with Love II Love which reached No 12. They then managed the dizzy heights of a No 3 hit with a cover of Eric Clapton's Wonderful Tonight. However, their future looked bleak when their record company (ironically entitled Big Life) went bust, despite the group having those Top Ten hits in 1996 and 1997. The fivesome - the other three are Noel Simpson, 25, Coree Richards, 23, and Andrez Harriett, 22 - have been together ten years and were friends before becoming colleagues, the reason they believe they haven't broken up like so many other all male groups.

    "They get treated like royalty and then they're gone," says Rahsaan. "That's what sets up apart. We'll never split up."

    Can the same be said of Baby and Jade? Unsurprisingly, Jade has his answer at the ready. "No comment".

    Since You've Been Gone is available on Cooltempo records.

    Mariah's Movie: Labor Day Release Beckons
     Mariah Carey reports on her Web site that she's in Spain recording still more songs for her upcoming 20th Century Fox/Columbia Pictures movie, All That Glitters. Carey also reports that the film, aka Glitter, will have a Labor Day release. It's not exactly a make-or-break weekend in Hollywood terms, but a good chance for Carey to market herself on venues like MTV. After all, Jerry's Kids will be her only competition.

    Last week, when she signed her deal with Virgin Records and ended her association with Sony Music, she sang an eight-second message into the same answering machine. It went like this: "I'm freeeeeeee. ."

    As you know, Carey was allowed to take the soundtrack of Glitter with her from Sony to Virgin even though she still owed an album to Sony. Wonder why? I did. A source told me: "The movie is very biographical. You're going to see a lot of references to Mariah's marriage to Tommy Mottola. It's better that he doesn't have to deal with it."

    Carey's video for the song "Honey" caused a lot of talk when it was released - it featured Carey escaping from a man who looked like Mottola into the arms of a male model. Presumably, Sony's big cheese was not pleased. I don't blame him.

    Mariah in Philadelphia Inquirer
     You can check out a picture of Mariah from All That Glitters a little article about it, which I typed out below. The picture is the one we have all seen a thousand times, where the glitter is falling down around Mariah and she is wearing a see through blanket or something! It's the April 15th magazine, which you can get in Saturday's newspaper!

    Q: Will Mariah Carey ever make a movie? -A. Hernandez Arlington, Texas
    A: She already has. The 31-year-old pop queen produced and stars in All that Glitters, a Cinderella story inspired by elements of her own life. The film went into production last July and is due out late this summer. It's about a poor but ambitious girl who attracts the interest of a DJ in the New York club scene in the early 80's. He guides her to stardom-not unlike Carey's ex-husband, Sony music honcho Tommy Mottola, 52. With a sountrack of original songs, many by the singer herself, All That Glitters could strike gold and enable Carey to equal Jennifer Lopez's recent feat of being No. 1 at the box office and on the album charts in the same week.


    Thanks...
     Thanks to Asma for the new side bar. I think she did a really good job on it and I appreciate her making it for this site! Make sure you check out her lovely site dedicated to Miss Mariah Carey!


    Mariah in Entertainment Weekly
     Gabe and TspoonofMariah told me you can check out Mariah in the Apirl 20th Entertainment Weekly. She is mentioned on page 20 under Scout and there is a little picture of her from Diva's Live 2000, in the butterfly top. It talks about her nail polish and Deborah Lippman.

    Also, she is mentioned on page 70 in Hear & Now. There is a cartoon of Mariah holding a mic and a contract with a $ sign. TspoonofMariah was VERY kind and typed it out for us:

    CAREY OUT
    No one expected Mariah Carey to stay at Columbia once her contract expired, given her breakup with Sony Music honcho Tommy Mottola and her public griping about the label. But why did Columbia let the singer, who announced she'd signed with Virgin on April 2, walk away with one album still remaining on her contract and the '80's themed soundtrack for her upcoming movie All That Glitters nearly complete?

    Well, they may not have. The Glitters disc will come out on the Virgin imprint (Carey reportedly paid $7 million to $10 million to buy back rights to the album). However Sony - which declined to comment, citing a policy against disscusing artists' contracts-will apparently share the wealth. "Sony drove a very hard bargain with her terms of her early exit" says a source familiar with the conditions for Carey's release. "If All That Glitters does well, even though the soundtrack will be on her new label there are considerable moneys in royalties to be pain to Sony." It's a win-win situation: Columbia looks good by allowing Carey to go gracefully and avoids shelling out big bucks for promotion and distribution. And Mariah is sure to enjoy aggressive support from Virgin, which is reportedly coughing up as much as $20 million per album, one of the richest record deals ever. With those kinds of stakes, All That Glitters had better be gold.


    New Pictures...
     Earlier in the week, I reported you can check out a picture of Mariah from Diva's Live 2001 and All That Glitters set in the April 17th issue of National Enquirer. I added the scans to Gallery 50! However, she is actually featured in this tabloid, 2 more times on page 44! Once again, I added the scans to Gallery 50 Here is what the little article says...

    Inflation:
    Pop princess Mariah Carey taked the plunge! Her bosom swelled from modest proportions in 1991 (above) to more mountainous dimensions several years later.


    Rap-Up Pushed Back
     Devin from Rap-Up magazine contacted me and let me know that the magazine will not be hitting stores on May 22nd, but on July 3rd. Rap-Up will feature new information about Glitter and also will feature an article about this website. The reason the release date got pushed back was so that the art department could produce better pictures for the magazine.


    Mariah's Wedding Date?
     Nini told me that Cotorreando is reporting that Luis and Mariah will get married at Luis's house in Acapulco on April 19th, Luis's birthday! IT's going to be a small wedding with only about 50 guests. Luis apparently proposed to Mariah on Valentine's Day and after their wedding, they'll head to New York to live in Mariah's recently bought apartment. They also said that MC is pregnant and that this information came from a very close friend from Luis. They even went on to say what food was going to be served at the reception

    Once again, this is the 3rd time it has been reported that Luis and Mariah would be married. This is a rumor still though because nothing has been confirmed! Remember that please!


    Mariah on TRL on Thursday
     Here is what Jeanette told me: (thanks to Gabby for letting me know about this too)
    I just watched TRL today, I'm sure somebody has e-mailed you this already, but just thought I'd let ya know that MC was mentioned on the TRL trivia question. Here's what they asked: w/ch artist's video was retired that features Jay-Z? a TRL audience answered it right, and of course, the answer was Mariah's Heartbreaker video.  They also, mention that on the remix Snoop Dogg was featured. Then, the audience who got the right answer got a Snoop Dogg prize(don't remember what it is).

    New Voice Message...
     Check out Mariah's Official Website for a new voice message from her. Thanks to Tomas, Becky, Jason and Art for telling me this and below you can check out the transcript Art made:

    Hi (very high note).  Hello.  I just finished singing for the night and I am about to continue writing the nice song and at that point, I will try and go to sleep and get up and do it again.  So I'm almost done.  Still in Spain and pretty soon I'm going to be doing the video and I don't know exactly what I'm doing for the video yet because we have to incorporate the movie and stuff like that.  So Yeah, If you have any nice ideas, let me know.  As soon as I'm done I'm going to be able to get back into the creative mode of working on the site and stuff and just hoping that as many people as possible are going to be able to enjoy it.  Hopefully I'll be able to do some things that are not standard, that are exciting, whatever, not the average nonsense.  But right now, I've been so busy writing and recording that I've haven't had time to fully focus on it.  Don't think that I'm not thinking about you because I appreciate you, I love you, and I enjoy you.  So, talk to you soon and I can't wait for you to hear the album and see the movie.  Bye bye.  Thank You much!

    Mariah's $117 Million Deal
     Mariah Carey's blockbuster recording deal with Virgin Records is worth an all-time high of $23.5 million per album, for a total of five albums, according to the New York Daily News. The deal, which begins with this summer's soundtrack to All That Glitters, is the largest ever per album fee in the industry. Both R.E.M. and Janet Jackson take in a reported $20 million per album. Carey recently left Columbia Records, where she began her career, after divorcing label boss Tommy Mottola in 1998.
