      The most overrated singer on planet earth. She's so old now that she screeches and doesn't sound a fraction as good as she was a long time ago. Even along time ago she wasn't that great.

      MARIAH CAREY
      “Touch My Body”
      (Island/IDJMG)

      How does an artist follow-up one of their biggest selling albums that included two number one singles when most had written the artist off as a causality of being relevant or not? If you’re Mariah Carey, you keep it simple, and that’s one thing MC has done with her debut single from her forthcoming album, E=MC². “Touch My Body” (co-written and produced with Tricky Stewart and The-Dream) is the perfect lead track to re-ignite her most passionate fan base, who've kept her relevant through good times and bad… times are pretty good for Mariah nowadays! This mid-tempo track is pure fun, sounding at times reminiscent of another Carey gem, “Always Be My Baby,” but yet different enough to sound like something totally fresh and new. Mariah’s vocal range is also kept in check and fits the song to perfection. The hypnotic “Touch My Body…My Body” hook is sure to stick after one-listen. While the thought of Mariah Carey exceeding expectations remains a question, simply because the bar she’s set is so high, matching them is a good way to start. This “body” of work sounds like a hit! BET ON IT!

      Mariah haters are so fucking retarded. It always has to be some dumbass Madonna fan at the most. You know they're threatened when they constantly have to bring Madge's name up.

      Go Mariah!

      Ugh! Another album with the same rehashed material? She releases the same thing over and over and over and over again.
      At least before she could sing. Her voice sucks now, so there's nothing to her "music" at all.
      Whatever

      Who goes shopping dressed like a hooker? I don't expect her to wear a Old Navy sweatshirt but seriously? She's too old to wear a skirt that short. Someone should tell her honestly that she looks like a Tart.

      She looks great, better than ninety percent of the women. Including the young girls.

      E=MC2 sounds pretty cool id say, better than "that chick" as it was rumoured to be.

      TOUCH MY BODY FUCKIN ROCKS!!!

      126

      Mariah doesn't look so bad because she had over $150,000 of "work" done!!! I hope she looks somewhat decent after all that surgery…
      Anyway, don't forget to watch Celine's new CBS special this Friday FEB. 15. She duets with Will.i.am on one of her new songs - Eyes on Me - from her Taking Chances album!! It's amazing!! And she will also sing with Josh Groban. Check it out!

      Re: Matt – What are you talking about? Madonna's sales of her last album outpaced Mariah Scary. Sure, in the US, Mariah had a comback hit with Mimoo, but are you only considering the US? Outside the US's sad state of music, Madonna outpaces her, and can actually fill a stadium for a tour. Think global!

      Also, MC could be Madonna Ciccone…

      Guess it makes me a huge nerd to think that she's not worthy of naming her album after that profound formula…I can guarantee she doesn't even know what the hell E=MC^2 means.

      I feel so sorry for her! She tries too hard to be young & sexy & her time is gone! When women her age try to dress young they just look pathetic & desperate!!! Look at her legs! She really should be wearing cute pants, some cute pants with a cute belt would look cute with that shirt & she wouldn't look so desperate! I think the girl has a trauma cause she used to be chubby when she was younger, so just because she lost weight she thinks she looks good, and I hate to break it to her…but she doesn't. She's living proof that money doesn't buy you class!!!

      Oh THANK GOD ITS NOT CALLED "THAT CHICK" I ALMOST GAVE UP ON HER WHEN I HEARD THAT, E=MC2 is quite a cool album name, one of her best, witty and clever but simple and not pretentious at the same time.
      Ive heard the song "touch my body" and realised the only people who dont like it are those taking it too seriously, shes just being playful and sexy in a subtle way. She shows her diversity with "touch my body" too because its laid back. Not dissimilar to shake it off.
      I dont understand why Mariah Carey is always so contraversial? Its always got to be love or hate. Why cant it be love her, like her, or not too fussed.
      I dont think she dresses like a whore, she has an incredible body for her age, look at her skin! Its more glowing than the sun itself.
      Sure she dresses up for award shows and things in short dresses but so does everybody else. Out and about shes always snapped in tasteful simple outfits which cover alot more skin. Not like victoria beckham who does the school run in a minidress!

      Im excited for the album, and hope the single goes to number 1. I personally believe its not quite good enough for number 1 simply because its too simple. But because people are STILL attacking her i hope it goes to the top of the charts out of spite!

      Where do people get the idea that Mariah is a super bitch slut? Shes NEVER EVER papped with guys or in sleazy clubs. She always has underwear one. Have you seen an interview with her? Shes sickly innocent and sweet! HECK i would probably like her more if she was actually bitchy and had an attitude it wud be more fun!
