Quote of the Day

Filed under: Baby Blabber > Anglophilia > Quote of the Day > Mariah Carey

"It's hard to have kids in this world. I don't think I could properly educate a child right now. Maybe in the future, but I actually haven't thought about it. For now, I enjoy my dog Jack's company.If I were to have a child, I would want to be married with a stable family environment. Not to say that's how everyone has to do it but it's the way I want to do things. My parents divorced when I was young and I'm not saying it was unstable but it's not ideal either."

- Mariah Carey tells Britain's OK! magazine

    I totally get what she's saying and it's probably one of the smarted things I've heard come out of her mouth…
    But the bit about "maybe in the future" - she's already 38. She's really only got about 5 years to make her mind up… Viable eggs are running out Mariah!

    I pledge the allegiance
    to the East
    to the Middle East of Islam
    and to the sucicide bomber
    that gives its life
    one muslum world
    under allah
    with 69 virgins
    with communism
    and our way or the highway

    whoops, I think I gave the wrong pledge
    no worries, I don't really know or say the other one anyway.

    Good for her…much better than some stupid 16 year old high school dropout getting knocked up and saying "I'm keeping it, I don't need no man to take care of my baby". Then being a lousy mother and raising a neglected child. At least Mariah is smart enough to know that she isn't ready for a child at this time. too bad more people aren't smart and self aware enough to think like that.

  37. Marianne Chitter Chatter says – reply to this
    37

    People who know me know that I would rather cut off my left hand than say something bad about Moo-riah, but given what a terrible time she has keeping her weight under control, I think she should not have kids. Once you have children, weight loss becomes twice as hard…and Moo-riah is barely holding on my her fake Lee Press-On nails.

    At least she is honest. I would hate to see her have a child just to have one and then pawn them off on a nanny, too many selfish bitches do that already :)

    Re: Katie – That's exactly what I was thinking. MC is too caught up in herself to want to have children. Having kids takes A LOT of self sacrifice, and she wouldn't be able to do it. The kid would more than likely be with a nanny 24/7 while mommy is out doing her own thing. She's not going to come right out and say, "I'm too selfish to fuck up my body and take care of some screaming kid". She said this the politically correct way.

    Finally! Someone in Hollywood who doesn't think having a kid out of wedlock is a fantastic idea. Go Mariah! Way to set an example.

    Ohhhh how cute… NOT!… She's just saying that because she didn't have Luis Miguel's (her ex) baby or have a stable family like he has now with Aracely Arambula (she's reaaaally pretty google her and you'll see I'm right)… Sheee is soo not over that… not even with that year on rehab! HA!

    IN THE FUTURE? LIKE WHEN SHE IS 50

    WHORE
    TOO NARCISSISTIC AND SELF ABSORBED TO CARE FOR A CHILD ANYWAYS

    A lot of women who don't want kids say it's because "I wouldn't give a child enough attention" when the truth is … they wouldn't want them if circumstances were perfect either! They don't want to offend anyone or appear cold. It's certainly okay not to want kids!

  51. mari-atari says – reply to this
    51

    she's too self-absorbed to have a kid anyway. I used to idolize this woman since the start of her career. She used to seem so approachable and down-to-earth. Wanting kids (or not) aside…in the last several years she's completely developed this narcissistic "I'm a diiivaa" persona that has gotten old real quick. It's not believable and it's not funny… seriously, girlfriend - get over yourself. You're almost 40. Start acting like it. I know you love to say you're "eternally 12" but you're really not and you end up looking like a damn fool. That's the good thing about her Tommy Mottola days - he kept her attitude (and wardrobe) IN CHECK. She used to be a class act.

    Re: mari-atari

    true…If she had a child she would be a terrible mother…another "Mommy Dearest" movie in the making :)
    She is too vain to give birth to a child of her own, that would require gaining weight and stretch marks..her airbrush/photoshop guy would have to work overtime. Sure she could adopt, but being a parent requires you think of someone other than yourself…doesn't seem like her

  54. Elite Retard says – reply to this

    I'm glad she don't want kids. She can hardly take care of herself. I think she needs her parents back.

    She's not getting any younger by the way–but its never too late, in case she would change her mind she could have In Vitro Fertilization at her 40's and have twins..

    She needs someone to actually have sex with her first. We don't need another insane person to raise a child.

    I think this should be a new trend.
    I think it's great 4 a celebrity to think of a childs needs before their own selfishness.
    Mimi should be applauded.
    This posting I should note is coming from an out of wedlock child.

    Mariah has the right view of the family arrangment and I applaude her for sticking to her values in a world where many people just do things the way they want. she has actually thought about the idea of children and has made sure she doesn't have any until the situation is right for her. Congrats Mariah

    "Mariah's an inspiration, the true definition of a star," said Antonio 'L.A.' Reid, Chairman, Island Def Jam Music Group. "She continues to amaze us with every incredible new album she creates. Now Mariah has added another plateau of success to what has become her virtually unapproachable track record on charts around the world. She proves beyond a doubt that with talent, ambition, and sheer force of will, all things are possible

    68

    Isn't she damn near 40?! If she DOES plan on having a child and a husband, she better get started on toning down the "MIMI ME ME" thing she has going on, and grow up. She could of course, adopt, when her eggs get too old, but somehow, I just don't see MIMI wanting anyone else to get more attention than her…

    Mariah gives a ton of money to children's charities and all people can say is she's too selfish to have a child? WTF! It's her choice to be childfree - what is this the stone age? Are women simply viewed as walking wombs? Come on people, it's the 21st century! She's donated her time and money to charities all over and breeder brains have the audacity to call her 'vain and selfish'? Head meets desk!!!! Good for you, Mariah….you've used your brain a lot more logically than most. Unfortunately most will worship Britney Spears just because she's performed the most basic biological function and shat out a couple of kids.

    Mariah once again illustrates for us WHY she is such a GENIUS!
    So many people bring children in this world for WRONG reasons. She is smart enough to know that bringing a child into her chaotic busy life would not be the best thing for the child. GO MIMI! Other celebs need to take note……that is why we have so many celeb child fuck ups! Can you imagine how blessed the world would be if people brought children into this world only when they were fully ready? Love U Mariah!

    To all you haters, you should be smart enough to recognize that MC is at least smart enough to recognize the importance of bringing a child into this world. I would be scared to see one of you procreate with such closed minded comments.

    Mariah should not be bashed for her honest feeling on children. Raising children is not for everyone and thank God she has the sense to realize it before and not after having one. I do not have children by choice and I have been called everything from a freak to selfish, I personally think it would have been way more selfish of me to have a child that I dont want just to make people around me happy. I love children I just dont want to raise them. I dont put anybody down for the decision to have children I have nothing but the highest respect for all you Mommies out there, its a tough job and hats off to you all!!

  83. BlahBlah says – reply to this
    83

    Her honesty? Ha that's funny. Mariah probably doesn't have kids because she's a selfish diva. She barely cares about her fans. She needs to show more love for her fans and start showing up on time to her appearances and meet and greets. If she had a child she knows she would have to spend money on it and take care of it (or hire a nanny) Mimi just isn't mom material and I predict she'll never be a mother.

    talk about a way photoshopped picture! that bitch aint that skinny!!! anyways this skank would never have a child I can guarantee that! she is way to vain for all that. you can just tell she way to conceited and she aint even pretty. how sad. plus she said she would want to be married before she had kids, thats another joke! umm I think you have to be seen with men first. I cant remember the last time she had a boyfriend or even seen with men for that matter. bet shes an undercover carpet muncher. Probably with her "best Friend" da brat or whatever her name is, kinda like Queen Latifah is!!!haaa!!!!!
