Carey And Michael To Duet
Pop superstars Mariah Carey and George Michael are in talks to record a duet together.
The singers met backstage at the London Live 8 gig in July and Carey was delighted when Michael asked her to collaborate with him.
A music industry source says, "This is a very big deal. George doesn't do many duets, they're usually with big legends like (sir) Elton John and Aretha Franklin, but he loves Mariah's work."
Michael's last high-profile duet, As, with Mary J Blige was a huge hit in 1999.

Mariah and Jack on the cover of K9 Magazine 

Pop superstar Mariah Carey has revealed her beloved dog Jack, is a real water baby and loves nothing more than trying to share a bath or shower with the hit making songstress.
In a WORLD EXCLUSIVE K9 Magazine interview, the world's top selling female artist of all time reveals how her adored Jack Russell has an obsession with water.
The singer, who's string of hits have made her one of the world's most successful artists ever, tells K9 Magazine how Jack - or Jackson P Muttley, to give him his full title - is always ready and willing to join Mariah at bath or shower time:
"Jack is a swimmer so he gets obsessed with anything to do with water even if I’m taking a shower he’ll try to knock on the door and come and stand in the shower. 
If I’m running a bath all of a sudden I’ll hear a splash and Jack will have jumped into the tub! It’s something that’s been happening for years and it’s like “Jack’s in the tub again!” and there he is swimming around in the tub".
Mariah goes onto explain how Jack's enthusiasm for h20 also extends to water jets:
"His favourite toy is the jet inside the pool – like the jets you find in pools and hot tubs. 
He treats that as his toy and continuously dives under the water and tries to bite the water coming out of the jet."
Mariah's exclusive interview appears in the Winter edition of K9 Magazine (issue no 14) on sale from October 10th

Mariah's UK single release next week
Simon let me know the following:
"Mariah releases her single in the UK on Monday, many fans will probably buy both copies of the cd singles that are out. What people don't know though is that if you buy both cd singles at the same time it only gets logged as one purchase and vote in the U.K charts. So, if we'd like Mariah to do well with this single, please buy your two copies of the single seperately - buy one when you first get into town, and the other on your way home perhaps?! Mariah missed out on the number one spot in July by 400 sales - let's not let this happen again!"

London's Fashion week parties
There was a feverish tinge to the social activities that swirled around London's spring shows, with so many parties, after-parties, and after-after-parties that the collections themselves felt like a sideshow. A ruthless edit of highlights is a practical necessity.
Donatella Versace fêted the reopening of her Sloane Street store with the kind of incongruous celebrity bunfight in which she specializes. Brittany Murphy and Joan Collins? Sheryl Crow and Vivienne Westwood? But of course! Donatella's old pals Elizabeth Hurley and Rupert Everett made it to both the party and the dinner afterward at Locanda Locatelli, where Mariah Carey, a more recent bosom buddy, sang her hostess' praises.

"Get Your Number" in Belgium
- The song will debut on radio next week in the Dutch speaking part of Belgium and the week after in the French speaking part, this is due to the very good airplay "We Belong Together" still has in the French speaking part.
- The video will start on Belgian TV channels in about 10 days.
- "Get Your Number" will be commercially released by the end of October and only as a cardboard sleeve single, stores here in Belgium don't want maxi-singles anymore, or at least the less possible.
- The song is highly expected by the Belgian radios and it seems they are impatient to play the song, some radios even started to play the song now.
The Heroes of Mariah promo page will be up very soon. You know some Belgian radios revamped their programs and if you can help with links to radios, e-mails and phone numbers where you can request in Belgium, drop me an e-mail, it would be highly appreciated .
- Belgium will probably have the re-release of "The Emancipation of Mimi", but nothing is confirmed, it will depend of how much other European countries will have the re-release.

Mariah Carey's doggy bath
Mariah Carey has revealed her dog shares her bath. The sexy singer says her pampered pooch, Jack, always jumps in when she's running a bath.
She admitted: "If I'm running a bath all of a sudden I'll hear a splash and Jack will have jumped into the tub.
It's something that has been happening for ages - it's like, 'It's like Jack is in the tub again, swimming around.
'" Mariah claims the Jack Russell also loves jumping into her hot tub.
She is quoted by Scotland's Daily Record newspaper as saying: "His favourite toy is a jet - like the ones you find in pools and hot-tubs.
He continually dives under the water and tries to bite the water coming out of the jets.
" Earlier this year, Mariah revealed she logs on to her pet's website every day Jack has become so famous in his own right the diva's Japanese fans have built a site dedicated solely to him Mariah is so fascinated with the website she regularly checks in to the news pages, entitled The Emancipation of Jack, after her chart-topping album, 'The Emancipation of Mimi', and the doggy-obsessed message board.   The beautiful star said: "I laughed out loud for 10 minutes when I found out about Jack's website.   He really is a very cool dog.  Some of his Japanese fans built it for him, it talks all about him - even his swimming antics"

Mariah to model for Donatella Versace in Monaco
She's topped the charts, but now singer Mariah Carey wants to be No 1 when it comes to modelling, too.

What once "Glittered" is now gold
By Rose Afriyie
The Emancipation of Mimi - Mariah Carey- Island Records 
4 1/2 out of 5
In the age of American Idol and daily debut albums, it seems that we are constantly searching for the next best thing in music. We search for a sound like no other, a voice that defies the laws of gravity, a persona that precedes the artist and a soul that radiates through every word, pitch, beat and tone. 
The Emancipation of Mimi, Mariah Carey’s quasi self-titled album, leaves no doubt that the star we’ve all been looking for has been in front of us all along. Before this album came out in April, critics speculated about what was to come from the best-selling female artist of all time. 
They called it “the return of the voice.” And we can’t even call her return a comeback because she’s been here for years. And the truth is, even with all the sparkling talent emerging every day, no one poses a threat to come anywhere close to the glass-shattering soprano we now know as Mimi. 
There are certain things that make R&B albums hits. Among the many things included in the equation for success is the standout track that demonstrates the artist’s vocal capabilities. Next, an artist must synergistically maintain both the rhythm and blues aspects of her album. 
Additionally, upbeat tracks on the album have the potential to make audiences break a sweat on the dance floor, and must be delivered convincingly. More emotive songs should bring people close to tears with that same intensity. Finally, if an artist has the backing of industry greats, their contributions must complement the project while still allowing for the artist to maintain her identity. 
Keeping all of this in mind, Mariah’s vocals on Emancipation of Mimi stand out on each love ballad, hip-hop adaptation — and even on her gospel song. Her album takes listeners through an elegant evening, an electric club, long nights remembering a lost lover and a full circle of emotions, as she masterfully incorporates each sub-genre of hip-hop and R&B. Guest appearances by half-man-half-amazing Kanye West, the beat master Pharell, chart-topper Nelly and other phenomenal names puts this project is in a league of its own. 
No fillers are to be heard on this album: It’s a bona fide play-through from beginning to end. With brutally honest lyrics written by Mariah, “Shake it Off” will have you ready to break up with a no-good boyfriend, and “Circles” will have you replaying your current situation in your head until it makes sense. “Fly Like A Bird” will take your soul and your entire being to the next level. This album evokes something so strong and indescribable, it’s something you have to hear for yourself to believe it’s true. 
Praise for Mimi. As much as she needed to emerge from the darkness with this masterpiece, we needed to hear it. Bigger and brighter than ever is Mariah Carey on an album that gives us full view of her showing all struggling vocalists how to recover from career setbacks. 
In the words of Beyonce Knowles, “All I can say is yes!” because Mariah Carey’s Emancipation of Mimi will have anyone with the slightest palpitation in his chest feeling emotions.

Sweet Success
Don't call it a comeback. "I've never gone away," says Mariah Carey about the success of her smash-hit double-platinum album The Emancipation of Mimi. And the singer credits her tough times (like her 2001 breakdown) with helping her to get back to the top of the charts. "You have to be put through the wringer in order to be able to succeed sometimes. You have to go through something in order to get back in touch with your creative roots as a songwriter, as an artist, in every way." 
And what about reports that the songstress and Eddie Murphy became an item at the MTV Video Music Awards in August? "We were hanging out. I'm a huge Eddie Murphy fan," she told us at the re-launch party for the Versace store on London's Sloane Street, where she was in true diva form in a slinky white dress by the designer with gold straps and diamanté-festooned stilettos. "Maybe they could just tell that, and that's why they made a big drama. But there is nothing going on. That's the last time I saw him."

Mariah Drops New Single
Mariah Carey and producer Jermaine Dupri are at it again. Island Records will be dropping a new Mariah single, "Don't Forget About Us," to Pop radio on Wednesday (9/28). The single is not (as yet) available on her current album The Emancipation Of Mimi. Island executives characterize the single as a cross between "We Belong Together" and "Shake It Off," two huge number one singles, and lyrically comparable to the compelling "We Belong Together." "Don't Forget About Us" is available to listen to all day today via AOL First Listen.
Carey also recently released a remix of "Shake It Off," featuring Jay-Z and Young Jeezy, which is available exclusively at the iTunes Music Store.

Jasmine's juice
By Jasmine Dotiwala
My farrago of a life is a little more settled this week! Finally I returned from yet another trip to Los Scandalous where I finished Mariah’s making of the video show for her new double A-side single Shake it off / Get your number – you’ve gotta watch your MTV schedules for it. It's hot tamale! Oh yeah!!!! On the last day my diva observations took on a whole new dimension as I witnessed MC's pooch, Jack, getting a massage from MC's private masseuse..... ahhh the life of a star doggie! 
While I was in the studio with MC I saw Hovi Baby (or president Shawn Carter, as he likes to be known now) get on the Shake it off remix with Young Jeezy – who was getting enough afflatus from his mentor Jigga. It’s stone “hood-osity” !!!!!!!!!!!!! Caliente! It was so exciting watching them all lay vocals down. Wow. That’s all I can say. 
Another wow moment was when Jacko called MC to ask her to join him on his Hurricane Katrina single. Listening to the ‘oh so casual’ convo between superstars is Heat magazine in motion! 
Speaking of which, the hip-hop community has really stepped up to the plate with all the big names – including Mariah – donating a lot of big cheques to help (MC didn't want me to mention that bit but I feel strongly that you should know that the stars do a lot of charity stuff).

Parents name their little stars after big ones
Drop into any preschool in a few years and you're likely to see a lot of backpacks marked with names like Paris and Mariah. But don't expect to find any mini-Madonnas or Clays; some famous names just don't fit with the times.
The link between career success and name popularity also is strong with such names as Mariah (Carey), Shania (Twain) and Norah (Jones). Same with Denzel (Washington), Keanu (Reeves) and Kobe (Bryant).
Experts say parents don't necessarily name their babies after a celebrity; they might not even like the celebrity, but they like the name. And when the celebrity is everywhere in the media, more people are exposed to the name.

Mariah calls in in favor of Jack
For the second year in a row, controversy reigns at the Relly Awards, as Regis Philbin again is shut out in the "Best Regis" category -- again at the hands of a "Saturday Night Live" veteran.  This year, comedian and actor Jimmy Fallon took home the prestigious "Best Regis" Golden Stool.
Philbin accepted the award on behalf of the absent Fallon, but shocked the Relly audience by reading a purported letter from Fallon, essentially passing the award to Philbin.  The document later was revealed to be a fraud.  After the broadcast, Philbin asserted that "Next year will be the year that REGIS is 'Best Regis'!"
In another shocking twist, porcine princess Miss Piggy eked out a win in the "Best Non-Human Guest" category, triumphing over such competition as Mariah Carey's dog Jack, "Star Wars" superstar Chewbacca and Barney the Purple Dinosaur.  Singing superstar Carey attempted to call in during the Relly taping to express her disappointment over Jack being passed over in favor of the popular pig.

"Mariah never ceases to amaze me with her talent & unbelievable ability. She definitely outdid herself on "Don't Forget About Us". It's a killer love song, one that I might compare to a cross between "We Belong Together" and "Breakdown". It's another Jermaine Dupri produced mega-smash...everyone will LOVE it! I believe it'll be on the radio sometime early next week! 
Thanks go to YOU and all of her loyal fans for all that YOU guys do for her. Ya'll are a huge reason that she is back on top of the world, for always standing by her and supporting everything she does. Keep it up. She's a dear friend and one of the most incredible people I know (not to mention, the hardest working & most talented artist I've ever seen in my career.) I too will be down for her forever!
If ya have any other questions don't hesitate to let me know! ALSO, be sure to tell EVERYONE to download the "Shake It Off" remix on I-Tunes. We need this #1 to happen next week...and by downloading the single, it can happen if everyone does it...it's gonna be REAL close between MC & Kanye again, so we all need to do our part to take it over the top!
All the best,
--Erik Bradley

Tour news
We don't know yet the countries where Mariah will tour, but we already know where she will not tour.
I was in touch with the Belgian promoter since a while and unfortunately, he told me today he will not make Mariah come for a concert in our country .
We will help Belgian fans as much as we can to make plans to go to the upcoming concerts (as soon they will be announced), like: traveling together, sharing a car, sharing an hotel room, etc... it will be in our forum.

"The Emancipation of Mimi" in Belgium goes up and down like a yoyo.  This week it gains 10 spots up to #29 in the official sales chart (French speaking part of Belgium) 
"We Belong Together" in the Belgian charts 
Official sales chart:
Ultratop 50 Singles Vlaanderen: #12 (last week #13)
Ultratop 40 Singles Wallonie: #33 (last week #25)
The song is now since 13 weeks in the sales, airplay, downloads charts in Belgium, this is kinda the Belgian Billboard.
This week the track jumps 2 spots to #5.
Heroes note: I know our charts are strange, our little country has 3 charts, one for the Dutch speaking part of Belgium, one for the French speaking part of Belgium and one who combines the sales, airplay and download this is how messed up we are!

Mariah gave us 15 years, give her 15 minutes each day 
As "We Belong Together" is still doing great in Belgium, give it a last jump before "Get Your Number" hits the radios, so, please request and vote on all radio stations and TV Channels.
For Belgian fans, the most important links are posted in the "We Belong Together" promo page.

B96 on Mariah
What artist has had a bigger 2005 than Mariah Carey? Her cd "The Emancipation Of Mimi" has been in the top 5 since its April release and now is certified quadruple platinum & still going strong! "We Belong Together" was #1 on The B-96 Eddie & Jobo Top 20 Countdown for 14 consecutive weeks and became the 16th number one single of her career (trailing only Elvis & The Beatles). "Shake It Off" has been sitting at #1 on Eddie & Jobo's countdown for the last 3 weeks. MC has recently been on Oprah, Ellen, Letterman, Jay Leno, Good Morning America and on covers of numerous magazines. Now, get ready for the re-release of "The Emancipation Of Mimi" featuring remixes and a couple of brand new songs never heard before! Mariah will be performing at the Thanksgiving Day NFL game in Detroit (vs. Atlanta) as well as on the American Music Awards and Billboard Music Awards later this year.

Forget Rita.  Folks better start battening down the hatches for Hurricane Mariah
The songstress, who dominated the summer with her No. 1 single “We Belong Together,” was nominated for a leading four American Music Awards, including favorite female artist in both the pop/rock and soul/rhythm & blues categories.
“The difference between the Grammys and the American Music Awards is that for the Grammys, you’re voted in by your peers,” Face told us following the nomination announcements. “The AMAs is clearly from the fans, so it’s a whole different meaning. It’s a really special thing to be nominated and even more special if you win.”

Anyway, I believe it's coming out today for downloading and all that kind of stuff, things of that nature. Anyway, people are distracting me. Are we ready to get on the plane? That's what we're doing. You're just interrupting our message leaving. Bye! This is what happens. Anyway, we just wanted to call and send love. I'm here with Ray-ch-a-a-l. It's been nice on this European trip, you know, seeing lots of wonderful fans in Paris and London. I'm coming home soon. I've got some surprises in store for you.

Anyway, I can't wait for you guys to hear that record but until then hopefully you like the nice remix which is coming out today and I'm real excited because Jay is one of my favorite rappers and it was real nice to have Young Jeezy there as well.

Mariah Carey eyes up east end
Mariah Carey has decided to leave the United States of America to don a pearly queen outfit and chat like a cockney. 
The Daily Mirror reports that the diva's latest whim is all things London, as she steps up her search for a house in England's capital. 
"I love EastEnders and I've asked a friend to record some episodes for me," enthused the multi-million-dollared, multi-octaved singer. 
"I love they way they speak – the cockney accent, so I'm gonna learn it." 
Indeed, if she does move to the east end, she might want to get the lingo on pat so she can ensure she has all her favourite things: scented Harry Randalls (scented candles); and lots of pretty Postman Pats (pretty cats). 
Carey is reportedly looking at pads in Old Street, and also quite likes the Marylebone and Kensington areas, although they are a little far from the sounds of the Bow Bells. 
She is also looking for a country mansion to inspire her as she writes material for her next album, which might cost her a lot of bread and honey (money). 
Mariah performed at Asda's Tickled Pink charity event on Sunday, which was held at the Royal Albert Hall, along with Westlife and the Sugababes.

Artists Yet To Commit On Michael Jackson's Charity Single!
Although Michael Jackson stated that he was moving full speed ahead with the single to aid victims of the August 29 Disaster in a brief interview with The Associated Press! There is a glitch! 
In 1984 when Michael Jackson co-wrote – Charity Single “We Are The World” Many Super-Stars like Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Stevie Wonder, Tina Turner, Billy Joel, Paul Simon, Cyndi Lauper, Ray Charles and many more participated without any hesitation! 
However, no artists have confirmed that they would participate with Michael Jackson’s New Single! Though Jackson states that he is constantly working on the single, which he had announced on September 6th and wants to contact artistes within days and record it in two weeks.
The Spokespersons for R. Kelly, Jay-z, Wyclef Jean, Mariah Carey and Lauryn Hill state that none of them have been contacted and have not yet agreed to participate!
Missy Elliott’s Representative said that though Jackson and Elliott have held discussions regarding the single, they have not yet reached any concrete agreement! 
Other spokespersons of various artistes could not be contacted! 
Jackson’s Spokesperson Raymone Bain – who confirmed participation of these artistes, also was not available for comments! 
When Jackson announced plans for a benefit song for the victims of the 9/11 terror attacks four years back. The single, “What More Can I Give” which featured Rocky Martin, Mariah Carey, Gloria Estefan, Reba McEntire and many more – never saw the light of the day as it was shelved! 
After his trial Jackson left US with his children and has taken up residence in the Middle Eastern Country of Bahrain, where he is still resting and recovering from the turmoil. Jackson is staying in Bahrain as a guest of Prince Abdulla, the son of the ruling king.
“From the Bottom Of My Heart”, the charity single would be released on Abdulla 2 Seas Records, it just remains to be seen, when that might happen!

Mariah Squarey
Diva's in search of the EastEnd life
LOVE a duck! Looks as if Mariah Carey is about to go a step further than Madonna in her determination to become a true Brit.
She wants an accent just like the ones in EastEnders...
Madge and husband Guy Ritchie are familiar faces down at their country local - but might Mariah turn up at the Queen Vic?
We revealed last week how the 35-year-old diva is moving here from the US and has hired three top estate agencies to find her a country bolthole to write material for a new album.
Now we hear the chart-topper, whose singles We Belong Together and Shake It Off took the top spots in the Billboard charts last week, has extended her search for a pad to London.
Speaking to 3am ahead of her breathtaking performance at Asda's Tickled Pink benefit on Sunday night, she said: "I love EastEnders and I've asked a friend of mine to record some episodes for me. I love the way they speak - the cockney accent, so I'm gonna learn it."
A source close to the singer reveals: "She has instructed her people to look for places in Ladbroke Grove and around Old Street. She loves the warehouses as they remind her of the lofts in New York. She also likes Kensington and Marylebone, too."
Well, that's not quite Albert Square, darlin'...
Mariah wasted no time putting her English accent into practice when she greeted the audience on stage before her set at the Royal Albert Hall in London. And she was reunited backstage with Irish chums Westlife, three years on from their No 1 hit Against All Odds.
Our source adds: "Mariah can already do a posh English accent quite well, and she used one in her video for Heartbreaker. She's watched some of the episodes of EastEnders here and she watches the ones in the US too, but they are out of date."
Mariah's hoping that quarantine laws won't force her to leave behind her beloved Jack Russell, Jack.
But if he has to stay in the States perhaps she could find an English bloke to spend the cold, lonely nights with. Well, it worked for Madonna.
Mariah wasn't short of offers during her short stay this week. She was inundated with flowers and gifts sent to her hotel by a mystery suitor.
That's a bit too classy for EastEnders - so if you expect to see her washing undies at Pauline's launderette or getting stuck in on karaoke night dahn the Vic, you're havin' a bubble mate...

Mariah pups up in the UK

The nation's scented candle suppliers had better stock up - Mariah Carey is planning to move to Blighty.
Word reaches us that the fragrant songstress is so keen to settle here she's already instructed three top estate agents to find the perfect country pad for her - and her beloved Jack Russell - by next year.
A close friend of the star tells us: "Mariah's always been fond of the UK, but since her career's taken off again she's had the chance to visit several times in a year. And each time she's got back to the US, she's been sad.
"Mariah loves Britain's history and culture and finds everyone so polite. And she thinks the English countryside is stunning - particularly around Oxfordshire. That's where she's asked the estate agents to concentrate their search."
Stunning Mariah's performing at a Tickled Pink breast cancer benefit at London's Royal Albert Hall on Sunday and is currently at number one and two in the US charts.
She's hoping to spend several months in her country bolthole writing material for her next album - accompanied by her pooch, Jack.
The friend continues: "Mariah loves that Jack Russell so much, it's untrue.
"He goes absolutely everywhere with her - even her yacht in Capri. And as she's coming over for a long period next year she'll be able to get Jack a pet passport." But even Location, Location, Location's Phil and Kirsty would be hard pushed to find Mariah's ideal home - despite an enormous budget of up to £8,000 a week.
As well as a pool for her daily water aerobics sessions, Mariah - whose new single Get Your Number/ Shake It Off is out on September 26 - needs at least eight bedrooms to accommodate the children her charitable foundation takes care of.
She hopes to fly them over for a holiday.
The source adds: "Obviously Mariah wants comfort, but the main thing she's after is peace.
"Angelina Jolie and Madonna both lead relatively normal lives over here and that's what she wants. But she'll be heading to London for some nights out, too."
And if she's in need of a babysitter for Jack, we're happy to oblige..

Heroes comment: mmyeah, makes sense, except maybe for the "And each time she's got back to the US, she's been sad."

Slated for release later this year, look for VX9800 to be in the hands of all the who’s who of the hip-hop industry.  Along with Jermaine, Mariah and Nelly, Miami Heat basketball sensation Shaquille O'Niel will be among the first ten celebs to get the phone before it hits the shelves.

Jackson: Mariah Carey to perform on Katrina song 
Michael Jackson has recruited pop superstar Mariah Carey, rappers Snoop Dogg and Jay Z, "Godfather of Soul" James Brown and other top artists to perform on a charity single for the victims of Hurricane Katrina, his spokeswoman said on Monday. 
Also joining Jackson will be retro-rocker Lenny Kravitz; rappers Wyclef Jean, Lauryn Hill and Missy Elliott; R&B crooners Ciara, Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, Yolanda Adams, R. Kelly and Mary J. Blige; and 1970s soul icons the O'Jays, spokeswoman Raymone Bain said.
"Mr. Jackson is continuing to reach out to artists who would like to work with him on this project, which he humbly hopes will make a tremendous difference to all individuals who have been affected by this tragedy, Bain said.
Jackson, who raised more than $60 million for African famine relief in the mid-1980s with a campaign built around his anthem "We Are the World," announced last week that he had been moved by images of Katrina's devastation to write a song for the hurricane's victims.
Bain has said that the 47-year-old singer, who left his Neverland Valley Ranch in California for Bahrain after his June acquittal on sex abuse charges, will return to the United States to record the song, tentatively titled "From the Bottom of My Heart."
All proceeds will be donated to hurricane victims, she said.

The video shoot was postponed, Mariah had a food poisoning , poor sweetheart .
Jasmine's juice
By Jasmine Dotiwala
So this past four weeks I’ve been ping-ponging between continents; from Italy, to New York to LA (twice). I’ve clocked up the air-miles and the saggy, wrinkly, no-sleep skin and worked my butt off (which isn’t a good thing as I’ve not enuff butt to spare!) 
This week saw me at Mariah’s Making Of The Video shoot for her 3rd international single, which is a double A-side: Get Your Number / Shake It Off.
So I land at LAX airport, MC’s driver picks me up and informs me I have an hour to get ready to accompany her to the World Music Awards! Whoa! See, this is why my suitcase is always overloaded with extra garms, for impromptu occasions such as this. I pulled out one of my classy frocks and slipped into it on the car ride back to MC’s Bel Air mansion where we jumped into her car and sped off to the infamous Kodak Theatre and her backstage dressing room, where we spent the next... wait for it... 7 hours! 
As the World Music Awards are not live they take an age to record, so MC’s dressing room luckily was the ONLY place to be. After the first knock on the door, security inform us that L.A Reid and Jay-Z ‘President’s Reid and Carter’ were at the door waiting to say hi to Mariah. Both looking dapper in slick button down shirts and blazers, Jay looking particularly slimline (Beyoncé must have him on a new healthy life-regime), they congratulated her on her current reign at the top of the charts and hung out with us till there’s another knock on the door... it’s Snoop Dogg with his huge team of 9-year-old soccer players (cute!) who also came to “pay homage to his sister”. Then there’s a third knock, by now I’m excited as 50 in a candy store… who could be next? It’s Stevie Wonder’s team come to request Mariah come and say hi to Stevie who’s in next doors dressing room. STEVIE WONDER! 
I think I might faint as I take in all the legends surrounding me as MC introduces me as her “surrogate sister!” 
It was all I could do not to beg for a group photo, but the memory will live with me till I’m 100 years old! Oh yeah! I’m gonna live till then! Then it was time to work as MC stepped out to perform her current hits in a show-stopping shorts-and-headband number which saw Beyoncé who was in the front row of the audience (with her boo Jay) be the first to stand and give her a standing ovation, leading the rest of the arena to stand and applaud rapturously too. Then MC went on to win four World Music Awards – one was handed to her by her mate Snoop – and each accompanied by a standing ovation. We then watched as Usher, Amerie and Patti Labelle performed a tribute to honor Destiny’s Child before riding home at 3am. 
We were up early next morning for MC’s video shoot where Hackney-born British director Jake Nava had her performing. 
We finished filming at 3am, then had a late dinner delivered by Mr Chow’s before finally getting to bed at 5am. An hour later, from my room on the other side of MC’s Bel Air home where I was tucked up in bed, I heard moaning coming from MC’s room. I found my girl doubled up in pain so severe I was horrified! 
A doctor confirmed it was food poisoning and MC was forced to stay in bed, postponing the video shoot. The next day we nursed MC back to health and I was really relieved. Good news is that I’ll have to be back in L.A next week. Bummer! NOT!

Mariah featured on upcoming benefit album
Russell Simmons is working with his Hip-Hop Summit Action Network to put together an entire album — The Hip-Hop Summit Action Network Presents: Forces of Nature — to benefit the survivors of Hurricane Katrina. Simmons said the idea came to him two days ago but that already the number of songs pledged is "mind-boggling."
"The outpouring of heart from the community is unprecedented," he said. "I'm getting a record from Mariah Carey. Puffy has said he's working on one, I hope I get that. He's has a gospel record I'm trying to get him to give me. ... Snoop. Kanye West. I got a Reverend Run record that will knock your brain out. ... Most of the songs are about healing. Everybody has been supportive. No one has turned us down. It's a wonderful feeling to see this kind of outpouring."
Simmons said a major ensemble has recorded a track as well. "One record I got, Denise Rich made and Sharon Stone is paying for the video," he elaborated. "It's got like 20 artists on there already. Everybody from Celine Dion to Game."

Mariah gives out her number
Mariah Carey has admitted that she gives out her phone number too easily, but says she would never ask for a guy’s number. 
The singer was talking to MTV News on the set of her new video, Get Your Number, which she wrote with Jermaine Dupri. She said: "He really wanted it to be coming from the girl, like `can I get your number’ to the guy. But in all honesty that would never be me!"
She went on to add: "I give my number out to too many people. That’s why I have to keep changing it. I’m due for a change of number soon!" Bad news if you’ve been texting Mariah.

Warning: This comes from "soulman" who writes in SOHH's blog and not from the SOHH team, so.......
Mariah Carey Makin' It Happen
Mariah Carey- the girl who supposedly had the comeback of all comebacks with The Emancipation of Mimi is really doing the damn thing. Yea, yea we all know 150 million albums and singles sold world wide blah blah blah, a full album of number ones, records broken and created since her days as the first lady of SONY but it is something to be said when your album has spent 21 weeks on the Billboard charts and has yet to dip lower that the #5 position.
To date, Carey has moved 3,189,635 units of Mimi according to SoundScan. Her new single "Shake It Off" seems to be replacing the long standing # 1 hit "We Belong Together" as the single of choice on MTV, VH1, Billboard Hot 100 Airplay etc.
With the first three releases being mega hits off the cd, the only person who would be more excited than Carey herself would be the worlds most under rated producer JERMAINE DUPRI! Dupri produced the first three hits. However there is still more noise to be made as the peeps over at Island Def Jam prepare to release the Kanye produced "Stay The Night".

Jasmine's juice
By Jasmine Dotiwala
So I began the week still in the City of Angels, Los Scandalous, or judging by my credit card bill, Los Scamdalous. $200 for a T Shirt? Apparently Ed Hardy’s caps and t-shirts are the biggest thing out there. When I went into the store with Mariah, The Game was in there too buying up the whole store by the looks of things. The caps come personalised with diamonte studs and your nick-name engraved into the denim...
Staying in Mariah’s house in Bel Air (I've always wanted to say that - shallow? Yes I know), was mind-blowing. I've been lucky enough to experience some stunning moments in my life but her LA crib was ridiculous! Set high in the hills with panoramic views of the whole city, the humongous house is surrounded by palm trees and tranquillity for her all-night recording sessions in the in-house studio. Huge black sliding back doors lead to a landscaped garden and hot tub with pool, and it’s here that I did yoga in the sunshine daily and took MC’s dog Jack for “walkies” (or “splashies” if he takes over!) One of MC’s neighbour’s Eddie Murphy was kind enough to offer to show us around the “neighbourhood” too, so I’m like a jibbering groupie – I used to love Coming to America! I don't think he appreciated me yelling: ‘It’s the Prince of Zamunda’ at him all the time tho! Hee hee!

Live 8 DVDs: Where Will the Money Go?
By Roger Friedman
Sir Bob Geldof is announcing today that the "Live 8" DVDs will come out on Nov. 8. The four-disc set includes all of the big performances from London, Philadelphia and Edinburgh. Separate discs from the Paris, Berlin, Rome and Toronto shows will also be available.
That means the DVDs feature Sting, U2, Paul McCartney, REM, Madonna, Mariah Carey, Stevie Wonder, The Who and the entire set of five Pink Floyd performances.
Live 8 was a huge achievement. But since it was not a charity fundraiser, where will the proceeds from these sales go?
According to a press release, "EMI and the Live 8 organisation have agreed that a generous royalty from sales of the Live 8 DVD will go to the Band Aid Trust for the relief of hunger and poverty in Africa."
"A generous royalty"? Not "all royalties"? That should be interesting. I'd like to be in the accounting office at EMI and at Buzzacott, Band Aid's chartered accountant, when they figure that out. The goal of Band Aid is listed with British Charitable Trusts as "to relieve hunger and poverty in Ethiopia and the surrounding area." Will the money go there?
According to a BBC report last December, when the DVDs for the original Live Aid concert were issued, Band Aid Trust has disbursed $144 million since 1985 to famine relief projects across Africa.
The projects are chosen by the trustees, who include Geldof, Midge Ure (his partner and leader of the great group Ultravox) and producer Harvey Goldsmith.
And the rest of it? At the London show, it was generally thought that Bill Gates had donated much of the money to make the show happen. There were also corporate sponsors involved.
And where will the royalties from the songs themselves go? This would be separate from royalties from discs sold. Will the writers of the performed songs donate the publishing royalties to charity, and if so, which one?
Look for a bit of a mess here as a lot of questions are asked and few are answered.

Heroes comment: Exactly Roger, I already brought the question up for the Live 8 book too.

50 Cent looking for a date with Mariah Carey?
50 Cent was left furious after Eminem promised to set him up with Mariah Carey after he had "finished" with her - but never got round to it.
The 'In Da Club' rapper was hoping to date the sexy singer - who denies she romanced Eminem - after his best pal said he would act as matchmaker. But 50, who has previously been out with 'Kill Bill' actress Vivica Fox, when Eminem went back on his word.
He revealed to Britain's Loaded magazine: "Eminem said that he was finished with Mariah and that I could, you know. I thought I was gonna hit that, and then he didn't hook me up, so I ain't really happy with him right now."
He said: "If I see her in the street, I'll try."
Mariah recently branded Eminem a liar after he claimed to have had an affair with her.

It's a Wonder the show got taped at all 
The World Music Awards didn't exactly go off without a hitch last week in Los Angeles.
Usher, Mariah Carey, Destiny's Child, Bon Jovi and Alanis Morissette were among those who performed at the taped ceremony, which will air Sept. 13 on ABC.
"It was a disaster," says a snitch. "It was supposed to start at 8 p.m., but it started at 9. And it got later and later because they kept stopping filming. People [in the audience] started leaving around 11:30, but poor Stevie Wonder had to stay because he was closing the show. He didn't get on until after midnight, and filming wrapped around 1:30."
The source added: "It's a good thing Stevie couldn't see that half the audience wasn't there."
The WMAs were held annually in Monaco until last year, when the event went to Las Vegas. Organizer Melissa Corken denied the reason it moved was her boozy after-dinner speech in 2003 in which she called Prince Albert - who was there - "a lesbian."
A rep for the WMAs did not respond to a request for comment.

Heroes comment: Please, bring the WMAs back in Europe where it started!!!! And Mrs Corken, if that's the reason the Award show has been moved, no wonder you didn't reply to my e-mail and my phone call last year.

The World Music Awards show on BBC 2
Awesome, Mariah was so beautiful and all, it was a BBC edition, 1 hour lang, the guy from the BBC was in LA.   A few artists and Awards and then.... Snoop arrived on stage whit his little football team (so cute), so coach Snoop called Mariah on stage, she was so... she thanked God, Mark, Benni and she thanked the fans, she never forget us, she thanked the fans for the support which never stops.
She sang "Shake It Off" verrrrrrry good, in my opinion. 
Later they showed her arriving for another Award during that part they played "It's Like That" while she was walking to the stage, at end of the show, the BBC guy interviewed Mariah backstage.

The sexy singer walked away with a trio of gongs, including Best Female Artist, Best R&B Artist and Female Entertainer of the Year, before sending pulses racing by wearing a tiny pair of hotpants during a blistering live performance.

A friend of the singer said: "Mariah was thrilled because a year ago she was being written off and people were saying her career was heading for the dumper.

Eddie Murphy in the "Get Your Number" video?????
No Carey on with Eddie
Singer Mariah Carey has poured cold water on the rumours she and funnyman Eddie Murphy are dating.
Eddie, who recently split from his wife, has been repeatedly photographed looking intimate with the diva, even holding hands with her at the MTV Video Music Awards in Miami. But while the world presumed love was in the air, it seemed the pair were simply talking business.
Eddie is expected to appear in Mariah's next music video while she is to feature in one of his films.
An insider said: "She has been quite bothered by the rumours because there is nothing going on. "They are just good friends and it is actually a working relationship."

DHT Hits the Top In Radio Airplay
The Belgian dance music collective DHT have finally ended Mariah Carey's grip on the top of the pop radio airplay chart. "Listen To Your Heart" takes over the top slot while "We Belong Together" slips quietly to #2. However, Mariah Carey is not planning to be away from the upper reaches of the airplay chart long. Her followup single "Shake It Off" climbs a strong 5 notches to #8 this week.
Elsewhere on the Billboard charts this week Mariah Carey reached a new milestone. As her single "We Belong Together" clawed its way to an incredible 14th week at #1, her new single "Shake It Off" made its way up to #2. This makes Mariah Carey only the 5th performer to hold down the #1 and #2 spots on the Hot 100 in the same week. She joins the Beatles, Bee Gees, Nelly, and Outkast in accomplishing this feat.

Mariah, First Female Lead Artist To Occupy Top 2 Slots on Billboard 100
SENSE OF BELONGING: For only the fifth time in the history of The Billboard Hot 100, the top two positions are held by the same lead artist. It is the first time that the lead artist is a woman, as Mariah Carey remains No. 1 for the 14th week with "We Belong Together" (Island) and rises 4-2 with the follow-up, "Shake It Off." 
Carey is the first lead artist to occupy the top two slots since the first quarter of 2004, when OutKast held the top two spots with "Hey Ya!" and "The Way You Move." Prior to OutKast, Nelly was in first place with "Hot in Herre" and was also the runner-up with "Dilemma," which featured Kelly Rowland, in August 2002. 
The only other lead artists to be No. 1 and No. 2 at the same time were the Beatles in 1964 and the Bee Gees in 1978. The Beatles held the top two positions for 10 consecutive weeks, starting the week of Feb. 22, 1964, when "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and "She Loves You" were the top two songs in the nation. The week of April 4, 1964, they occupied the top five spots.
Carey's top-two feat is just part of her chart story this week. "We Belong Together" is on top for the 14th frame, putting it into a five-way tie for the second-longest running No. 1 of the rock era. The all-time champ is another Carey single, "One Sweet Day," recorded with Boyz II Men. That superstar collaboration was No. 1 for 16 weeks in 1995-96. 
"We Belong Together" joins "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston, "I'll Make Love to You" by Boyz II Men, "Macarena" (Bayside Boys Mix) by Los Del Rio and "Candle in the Wind 1997" / "Something About the Way You Look Tonight" by Elton John in second place. "We Belong Together" is the first song to remain No. 1 for 14 weeks since Elton's memorial single for Princess Diana in 1997-98. 
The 4-2 move of "Shake It Off" makes Carey a likely candidate to replace herself at No. 1. That would give Carey her 17th No. 1, and tie her with Elvis Presley for second place on the list of artists with the most chart-toppers in the rock era. It would also make "Shake It Off" the song most likely to give Carey more total weeks at No. 1 than Presley, and thus the most weeks at No. 1 of any artist in the rock era. The current standing: Presley 79, Carey 75.
WOMEN HAVE THE POWER: The lengthy visit of Mariah Carey's "We Belong Together" to the pole position on The Billboard Hot 100, added to the reigns of Gwen Stefani's "Hollaback Girl" and Carrie Underwood's "Inside Your Heaven," has resulted in the longest shut-out of men from the No. 1 position in the rock era. 
It's been 20 weeks since a male artist has been No. 1. The 19-week streak by Stefani, Carey and Underwood beats the 16-week run of distaff No. 1s in 1999 that began with Brandy's "Have You Ever?" (two weeks) and continued with Britney Spears' "...Baby One More Time" (two weeks), Monica's "Angel of Mine" (four weeks), Cher's "Believe" (four weeks) and TLC's "No Scrubs" (four weeks).

Not Mariah related, but I think it's important, here's what I received from o-minus:
Report: Hurricane Katrina
Ok. This is how it is.. i just left the red cross center here in town... looking at all of the victims. what you see on tv is nothing. whole familes have died from hurricane katrina and millions of people have no homes to go back to. they are stuck from home with minimum supplies. im sure most of you havent spent much time thinking about this disaster.. but i want you to right now. i want you to imagine sitting on your roof.. or trapped in a room in your house.. for days. no food, no water, no air conditioner! you could hang right? you could deal with the hunger.. with the dead bodies floating by you. but what about when your lil brother/ sister/ child starts to cry from hunger pains. that complete feeling of helplessness sets in. knowing theres nothing you can do but sit there and watch them suffer. today i met a guy that wished he would have stayed on the first floor of him home.. and drowned instead of watching the pain his family went through. anyways... im sure youve all seen the damage done. but know.. they arent showing the worse parts.. they are mainly showing the big towns. yea thats what it did to nice homes.. now imagine those small communities with trailor houses.. low income families. if you fly over parts of la.. all you see are red x's on homes... thats the homes with dead people trapped inside. if you read all of that im happy. make me happier tho... go to the red cross site and donate some money... these people need basic supplies. its not money to rebuild thier homes... its money for them to eat.. drink.. sleep for the next 4-6 weeks and some longer until they can return home. i bet your first reaction is.. i dont have any money i want to give up. okay.. you can mail in a donation of a dollar. im sure most of you have more then that sitting on your desk in change. if you donate online with a debit/credit card.. its a minimum of 5.00. thats one of your meals at mcdonalds.. and we all know we can afford to skip one meal.. when some people havent been able to eat since saturday. heres how you do it... for an online donation of 5.00 or more

World Music Awards highlights
Kelly and her friends attended the WMAs and share her moments. 
"Before the show we saw Mariah come sit in the audience with Mark and Benny Medina on both sides of her and we yelled "HIIIIIIIIIII MARIAAAAH!" and she turned around and saw us and gave us a nice wave!! So then we saw Snoop Dogg come down the isle with his football team and he presented the Female R&B award and so we all knew it was Mariah and started yelling MARIAH!!!   And of course she won and she got up and got the award and we are yelling and she thanks everyone on IDJ even Mark.
Later, Mariah gets presented with the pop artist and Best selling single for WBT awards and she thanks everyone again that she thanked before and said it was late and she went backstage. Then Stevie performed, and then Usher got entertainer of the year male, and Mariah got entertainer of the year female. And she thanked everyone, but this time her friends Trey, Mary Ann, Rachel, Sadie, etc... and then she said that it was dedicated to the fans cuz we are so the bomb ya know "
Thanks to Kelly for sharing

Jasmine, you crack me up girl!
The funny thing is that here in LA, hip-hop heads are all laughing at Eminem ‘cos he just won’t let go of his obsession with Mariah Carey. I’m sure you’ve heard by now that he’s playing a voicemail message she supposedly left on his phone years ago to his concert goers. What a dumbass! Since she’s right at the top again – where she belongs – he’s tryin’ to stay associated with her. Men out here are going: “Wow, Slim musta caught feelings for Mariah hard to have him not able to let go of her.” What’s even funnier is MC’s been showing us the constant pages that he bombarded her with and all I can say is he was caught up something stoopid! Only thing is, MC is way too classy a lady to air her bizness in public. However you know what they say... ‘what goes around, comes around’, who knows when you may see some ”Eminem text messages” in someone else’s tour, hint hint! Slim Shady — you’re gonna be sicker “than a set of twin babies”!!!

Mariah Carey caught up in mystery fire 
Mariah Carey almost never made it to the MTV Video Music Awards in Miami, Florida, on Sunday night (28 August 05) after she was caught up in a fire emergency in her Hollywood home just days before.
Firemen reportedly had to wake the sleeping Carey and alert her to the seriousness of the situation after neighbours called to report a small blaze at the pop star's Bel Air home on 24 August (05).
Fortunately for her, the fire was quickly extinguished and damage was minimal.
A spokesman for the singer confirms, "There was a small fire... in the Los Angeles home that Mariah Carey is currently renting. Mariah was never in harm's way... No one was hurt."
