I know people like her nowadays. I don't think it's related to the time period, I think it's related to how hard she had it growing up, not just issues in her family , but also moving ALONE as a teenager to NYC and having to start up this career and struggle to survive, have enough to eat and a place to stay. My brother dealt with a similar situation (without the success) and he's only 21. He's been on his own since he was 16. It's the circumstances that she strived in, not the time period she grew up in.
I'm so fascinating by Early vintage Mariah, she was so mature, and classy. Plus her voice at that time was gold. And the interview was great, the questions were good and not stupid.
Always a beautiful mixed race woman...as opposed to just being a beautiful woman. What an idiot. Too bad you aren't nearly as well studied and polite as Simpson.
I don't know what everyone is so upset about? Donnie asked her himself! and she answered! "Irish Mother, Father Is Venezuelan & Black" So IRISH/VENEZUELAN/BLACK = Mixed Race... Hell I'm Puertorican/Irish & Italian And sometimes people Ask & Wonder What I'am? so why get offended or start some weird debate about it.
@Luke Mason you do realize OTHER people said that and yet you only directed your comment towards me... I know it's not a race! it's an ethnicitiy! anyway... 👍✌️
wow this is what i want to see in an interview: questions about the process of making the music etc this guy is asking the real questions not some BS "who are you dating now blah blah" shit i see nowadays
@@chriscoyne9717 yeah! music back then was so much better, with AMAZIN artists such as Milli Vanilli, Vanilla ice, and the even more amazing kid rock!!
hei hei do you know for a fact they lied to the media? Alison yes for she has an addiction and drug addicts do lie. As for Morgan he told the truth on Mariah’s drinking and diagnosis of bi polarity. He advocated for Alison for help with medical expenses. He stated he was doing what he can to help Alison. This stems from a home invasion where she nearly died and racked up medical expenses. Everyone slams Alison. Yes, she has made horrible life choices. But, what got her on that path comes from her childhood of abuse. The parents are not to be commended for. They are not innocent. Their mother did not raised Alison and she was not there for her like she was there for Mariah. A child needs their mother. Alison did not have one. Their mother brushed her aside while giving all support to Mariah. Mariah should not be place on a pedestal. She comes off rude to people. She used to be nice and respectful. Not anymore. Alison has had a lot worse than Mariah. No one was there for her in her younger days. It’s odd one is dirt poor no support from family and the other one filthy rich got support initially from her brother and mother. People speak on her substance abuse and Mariah does the same. The only difference is one with heroin and alcohol. The other is alcohol and misuse of prescription pills. Yes Mariah has helped her by giving her money. Bad mistake as Morgan has stated you never give an addict money. During that time a payee or a conservative should of handled the money to ensure that the money does not get blown away. The family dynamics were broken down with this family a long time ago.
She's so lucky Brenda K Star was rooting for her! Alot of solo artists don't help their backup vocalists out of fear of them becoming bigger than them.
Can we acknowledge that her debut album was an R&B classic and she was only 19??? What 19 year now makes that type of album? Mariah is a legend from the start 👸🏾💯👑.
She's a virtuoso, there's no other word for it. Incredible vocalist and an amazing songwriter from a very young age. She carries herself with such sophistication, poise, and speaks with the softness of a literal angel. You'd be hard-pressed to find a twenty year old celebrity nowadays who behaves this way.
I remember that my friends and I ditched school to watch this interview. Vision of Love captured my heart and I haven’t looked back. Still love me some Mariah 🥰
I love how during her debut era everybody was just astonished by her vocal abilities and in awe of this new talent that was catapulted to the top over night
Mariah was like this, so humble and so mature until 1997/1998, up until her mental breakdown, and the total personality update came with the Emancipation of Mimi, where all the diva personality was created basically by Andre Leon Telly, who dressed her and gave her pointers on how to act like a 'star'. If you run into Mariah on the street or see her after a show, you'll see she's a total sweetheart and so insanely down to earth. Good for her for keeping her legendary status ❤️
@@dreamluvr1600 Mariah's publicist Marvet Britto introduced her to Andre because Mariah needed a makeover/transformation for her new album/era. They met and they clicked. He was one of the first people that actually told Mariah to OWN being a diva, because in the early 2000s the term was portrayed negatively. Britto asked Andre to "fix her broken relationship with fashion houses because no brand wanted to lend Mariah clothes" and he did! I don't remember hearing much about the brands Mariah wore before meeting Andre. That's probably why she shot Say Something at the LV store in Paris, because it was supposed to be the first single. He was tremendously influential when it came to Mariah's visual makeover and current style.
Personally, I love the sound on Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel and Emancipation of Mimi. If her next album is something like those, I will be happy. She's not going to be making music like the 90s era again. We need to be realistic. I'm sad for her that she has natural issues with her voice. I know what it's like to not be able to sing how I used to.
No God Bless BLACK with that.. she identifies herself as a BLACK woman and her BLACK roots have always been evident in her singing and music. why? Because BLACK is beautiful
@@tonnymitch4016 No, God bless EVERYONE of her roots, because without them, we wouldn't have Mariah Carey today. Every race is beautiful, not just one or a few.
Chris Carey exactly then they should’ve included black instead of just the other races so like I SAID BLACK is beautiful and it’s what she identifies as more than all the other races that she’s mixed with
her natural hair is not curly!! look at her childhood picture! n look at people in 80's hair!! Almost of them has a curly hair n same style! even Nicole kidman and Celine dion has a curly hair in 80's!
@@Ais-eb9bk How is Mariah full of herself? And the reason she acts and dresses different is because for like 6 years in her career she was never allowed to dress, act, and do the things she wanted to do because her husband Tommy Matola was terrible.
First single ever for a new female artist and she was already topping the charts. Man I would've loved to be there and witness her career from the very beginning.
no one would be able to sing butterfly or we belong together or shake it off or any of her singles.... she has a unique tone.... please dont judge her for doing what she loves
This is the Tommy Matolla version of Mariah. When she left him and he could no longer control her, that's when she changed into the the Mariah we see today.
+Sleazy Ryder oh please, Tommy abused Mariah. Ok, I prefer her in the way she was before 1997, but c'mon, thank Lord she left him. She didn't do this before cause she was afraid of having her career ended. After 4 successful studio albums, she didn't have to stand abuse anymore. He was an evil man. Michael Jackson said he was devilish. However, Mariah was waaay better this time, in my humble opinion. When her shows were simple and focused in her extraordinary voice and in her passionate smiles. But people change, that's sad. But i think all this abuse changed her, that's why she wrote that song called Side Effects. Maybe these side effects made her turn into the shady person that she seems to be when you see her arguing with Nicki Minaj. She seemed thirsty in this season of American idol. But I do love Mariah. She's a living legend. Some people are just broken and we gotta pray for them.
No, she SHOULD and thankfully she did. What'd the point of having a lot of people love you if you're not happy with yourself, your life and the man you live with, who was abusing her verbally and controlled EVERY aspect of her life? She was a prisoner in her own house. Fuck that. I'd take freedom, any day.. Her being to be herself. And trust me, back then, a lot of artists couldn't be their selves.. and still today, a lot of them are fake as fuck.. All for success. Gotta keep those fans and record sales lol
Dziękuję za ten wywiad. Mariah pomimo młodego wieku , mówi tutaj bardzo dojrzałe.Pytania , które zadaje pan są bardzo fajne.Kocham lata 90'. Kiedy słucham Mariah 1990-1994 to wiem,że to najlepszy głos w historii muzyki. Pozdrawiam z Polski.
I KNOW!! I'm glad someone else noticed that! I always thought that was hysterical! I think honestly part of it may have just been that she was nervous, and just nodding a lot in general. But considering how she is these days, it's just SOOO fitting!
People always talk about how Mariah is such a diva and has changed so much. Well watching this interview I'm surprised how much she has NOT changed. Can't believe she is just 20 here. So mature and slightly arrogant. A cute face for sure but the attitude is the same. Love her so much!
*cntd* you'll even see her personality shine through her music a little more. :) That's one of the reasons I love her so much besides the fact that she is so dedicated to her "extended family" aka us Lambs or her "Lambily" and she continues to inspire me day after day through all the things she does
this is very true, she always said she was multiracial, but Tommy Mottola, Brenda K. Starr and lot of other Latins got mad at her because she chose to go the black R&B route(being that she is part black), I guess they wanted her to become a Latin pop star or something I don't know LOL, but she was like bitches I'm a Butterfly and I'm gonna spread my wings and prepare to fly, she took off and landed straight on top of the charts. and this is why Tommy Motolla, Brenda k Starr, J-lo and a lot of Latins turned their backs on her and tried to sabotage her career, you're right JohnJohn it didn't work JaJaJa.
You're welcome! I didn't recall seeing it on here before, so I figured it's long overdue;-) Glad you enjoyed it! I was 12 at the time of this interview. Good memories. Donnie always worked well as an interviewer because he made the interviews more of a conversation than a q&a!
IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY WE ROCK WITH MARIAH TIL THIS DAY, then watch earlier interviews. This love and support isn't overnight. It brewed! I'll forever love you, #CousinMariah 💜. 11.22.2019
This is awesome footage!! amazing!! good old 90s!! that man sort of looks high!! lol.. she looks gorgeous - more of a natural look.. love her curly hair!! this is a great interview!! wow, 1990!! i feel old!! those were the days..
Mariah may be one of the very few celebrities who were not changed by fame and fortune. i look at old interviews all the time, and it's so refreshing to see that she hasn't changed... much.
her diva attitude has always been there . it's just way more pronounced now. but hey, she worked very hard to be who she is. she deserves to have her way.
SHINBAXTER honey, i said she hasn't changed... *much*. LOL no one remains exactly the same, but when i see Mariah then, and compare her to Mariah today, there isn't much of a contrast. you know?
I love this! The interview is very professional.. Donnie Simpson has always been a great interviewer. Mariah is so young yet very well spoken and mature for 20 years old. She seems a bit nervous or more reserved than the other early interviews I've seen of her.. but if this was truly her first interview than that's understandable. Just WOW.. look at debutRiah ❤❤
This is the Mariah i miss and loved. Sweet, down to earth, humble. The Mariah of today is not the shadow from the Mariah 20 years ago. I gues success changes people. sigh I still love her music and will continue to support her but this is the Mariah I fell in love with 20 years ago.
"She change" no she's not She was young and just start! now she become a strong woman(and free)..she is still nice and sweet just with more Confidence... I met her you'll can see my videos with her! she is very nice.. and you can see some of the video that i made "Mariah Carey good woman" and you will see how nice and good she is.. you people love to judge womens by their look and the image!
the way she talked at that age was so mature...
And her lips
I talked the same way; idk what wrong with the world that this isn’t standard
Media trained❤
She was a waitress !? Imagine Mariah Carey serving you food 30 years ago
I'd come to that eatery three times a week! . . . with tips!
Karen smith I'd be like, "Can you at least sign my orders, just in case you become famous?"
She said in multiple interviews she was a terrible waitress.😂😂😂
Oh my God, Karen.
You can’t just ask people why they’re White!
You gotta start somewhere
She has always given Brenda K Starr credit for discovering, mentoring her and helping her get a deal.
I feel like Mariah has always been really good about giving credit to mentors, other songrwriters, producers, artists etc in the industry.
Brenda k star has a different feeling
@@THISIZME3 She's just a hater. Mariah was simply more talented and therefore more successful in the industry and Brenda was resentful of that fact.
I miss her curly hair :-(
I miss her singing so well like she did in the 90's,..and before she started looking so slutty.
Autumn Mouzon Who cares what she's "looking" like?? She's an amazing artist, her looks are just a bonus.
fool4singing Sexsit!
Autumn Mouzon 1000% AGREE
@Lily Lily and her dad is black my love 😘
She was so mature for 20, i think the 20 year olds nowadays are childlike.
yeah true but if you look into her biography more she went thru a lot as a child and grew up struggling where nowadays a lot of things come to us easy
I know people like her nowadays.

It's the circumstances that she strived in, not the time period she grew up in.
She really matured backwards.
v_espertine Yes, she's eternally 12 now, but she was 35 here. haha
Thiago Cecatti Braga I think everybody back then in their 20s was very mature. I miss the 90s man!!

He was a good interviewer. She looked comfortable and happy.
Sam T. Yes
I was about to say the same thing. Very respectful and asking about her art and inspiration.
Talking to Donny Simpson, his charisma and coolness just oozes.
Donnie Simpson so professional, well-studied and polite. Ah the '90s. Mariah looks stunning here. Was always a beautiful mixed race woman.
why do you have to mention race
Drawing attention to something pretty pointless...
Always a beautiful mixed race woman...as opposed to just being a beautiful woman. What an idiot. Too bad you aren't nearly as well studied and polite as Simpson.

Her voice
Can we acknowledge that her debut album was an R&B classic and she was only 19??? What 19 year now makes that type of album? Mariah is a legend from the start 👸🏾💯👑.
So did Mica Paris, debut album 'So Good', aged 19. Both Legends 🙂
She's really articulate and well spoken.
I should hope so, she is a musician
I really find her really attractive at her younger years, absolutely stunning
Interviews were so much more genuine back in the day. We need to get back to this.
She's a virtuoso, there's no other word for it. Incredible vocalist and an amazing songwriter from a very young age. She carries herself with such sophistication, poise, and speaks with the softness of a literal angel. You'd be hard-pressed to find a twenty year old celebrity nowadays who behaves this way.
"and you are that, you are beautiful"

😆
I like Mariah but I found that part really cringeworthy and arrogant
@@sr2592 For her or the interviewer?
@@sr2592 in what kind of way did she look arrogant? She didn't say or do anything. She just nodded her head and smiled.

Cute innocent Mariah interview.
I’m two years older than Mariah. 😵
Too bad. You missed out on the greats.
Good grief 😬😫🙄. Feeling old now cause I graduated 26 years ago

she's so sweet and innocent here 😍 since then she was already being addressed as a singer songwriter 👏
She was stunning this interview
Mariah is so gorgeous. Look at those legs. She is incredible.I love her so much. I grew up listening to her songs.
Mariah is a true New Yorker. I love that she embraced being biracial, and wanted people to know that she's human like we all are
"It makes me human". Beat mariah quote
My Goodness! She's so young! She doesnt even realize how succesful she's going to be.
God knew
She was and is still beautiful. Proud to be a lamb!

honey, i said she hasn't changed... *much*. LOL no one remains exactly the same, but when i see Mariah then, and compare her to Mariah today, there isn't much of a contrast. you know?
she is one of my favorite singer.
Grew up with Mariah's compact discs playing in the background. She looks gorgeous here, her best look!
Mariah Carey was and still is so beautiful.
She is SO beautiful!
Striking
GUYS, LOOK. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE THE OLD MARIAH CAREY SO VERY MUCH, BUT NOW SHE'S THE BEST SUPER TALENTED WOMAN OF THE YEAR.
What an amazing human so gracious and humble... I LOVE HER SO MUCH!! 💘💘💘
As noted in my description, it's Donnie Simpson!
the best is yet to come and she came!
4:30 the cutest laugh ever 😩🥺
The Glitter movie is a true story 😍
She's so humble
This women here changed the game for the next 30 years and she still looks as young as 1990
sexiest voice for a female, amazing tone and range!!
jesus i was hooked the moment i heard her voice and purchased every cd this lady ever put out , amazing voice ,& talent
I love this! The interview is very professional.. Donnie Simpson has always been a great interviewer. Mariah is so young yet very well spoken and mature for 20 years old. She seems a bit nervous or more reserved than the other early interviews I've seen of her.. but if this was truly her first interview than that's understandable. Just WOW.. look at debutRiah ❤❤
she was beautiful in this interview
This is authentic Mariah!
What a handsome host🥰
Donnie come back and bring video soul wit you - I miss this groove
I can't believe she is 20 years older than me, but today she only looks 5 years older than she did in 1989.
Are you blind
This is the Mariah i miss and loved. Sweet, down to earth, humble. The Mariah of today is not the shadow from the Mariah 20 years ago. I gues success changes people. sigh
I still love her music and will continue to support her but this is the Mariah I fell in love with 20 years ago.
"She change" no she's not She was young and just start! now she become a strong woman(and free)..she is still nice and sweet just with more Confidence...
I met her you'll can see my videos with her! she is very nice.. and you can see some of the video that i made "Mariah Carey good woman" and you will see how nice and good she is.. you people love to judge womens by their look and the image!
Her answers are spot on!
Angelic voice and looks, I had a big crush in the 90s 😍
People don’t often realize Mariah is a great song writer.
She was an angel
still is
Good interview.
she was sooooo innocent in debut era.
Was or seemed?
