    you can tell how different she acts when she's actually being interviewed about music and not about the celebrity.

      I agree, when talking about music she speaks and acts different. Interviewers loose a chance to break down the "genius" when they focus on stupid overdone questions, but this interviewer did quite the opposite. The result was interesting and refreshing, he did amazing :)

      Unlike many other pop acts, she is an actual musician and songwriter so she knows she contributes a lot to her work which grants her no problem with crediting those who are part of the process.

      @no name a majority of education is done by art, people listen to music in the times where theyre most connected to themselves. Those moments where ones full attention is given to a song, imagination, the most important feature that every human posseses is sparked. Yes, it can be done with books also but music is quicker.. All that to say, when people use music and not just let it play, alot is learned. So beware of what you listen to, you might shift your whole life perspective. Lyrics are basically like someone reading to you, which we all grew up with.

I think it's highly known and agreed upon that her voice is THE BEST and unmatched. And her song writing is absolutely phenomenal. So many songs have changed my life and I hold so dear to me. If anyone EVER tries to sleep on Mariah Carey, GO LISTEN TO THE CATALOG. I'll never believe you've listened to and read the lyrics if you ever dispute that she's the best singer/songwriter. She can do it all. Love you, Mariah!!!

    Hands down MC's best interview so far, IMO. I love how she has most people fooled into thinking she's this "Diva" just for a laugh at the people who will believe all that BS 😂. She's far more intelligent than she's given credit for, and it's seen here in this interview. Met her once in London (2009), and she's a beauty inside out and very genuinely kind.
    Also, the host/interviewer is a true talent at his art. Some of the best questions I've heard put to MC to date!
