The Voice Recap: Welcome, Mariah Carey!
Mariah Carey may have built up a reputation as a diva throughout her years in the spotlight, but she’s decided to change this up by appearing on The Voice as an adviser.
If first impressions are everything, then she made a good impression on the artists she worked with. She wanted to push them to their limit while nurturing the talent.
Monday’s episode also served as the first episode of the Knockout rounds, pitting some of the best singers of the season against each other.
But how did it all pan out?
Team Adam: Tyke James singing “Ring of Fire” vs. Keith Paluso singing “You Are the Best Thing”
Mariah worried that Keith was being too heavy with his vocals and thought it would be great if he slowed down to give viewers a chance to take in his unique voice.
Meanwhile, Tyke was rushing through his rehearsal, and Mariah wanted him to douse it with some heart. That’s not a big thing to ask.
Keith’s performance fell very flat, and it was almost like he didn’t take any of the feedback on board which was rather problematic.
Tyke’s performance starred slow but gradually got better. He did take the feedback to heart, and that’s likely why he won the Knockout.
But Kelly wanted to give Keith another shot, so she stole him.
Team Kelly: Kymberli Joye singing “The Middle” vs. Zaxai singing “Cruisin’” vs. Natasia GreyCloud singing “Tennessee Whiskey”
This was an odd choice. There were three people competing in this heat, and it was because Cody Ray Raymond departed the contest.
The positive here was that two of the three would be advancing to the Top 24. Mariah had little to say to the three performers, presumably because they were solid.
There wasn’t a negative thing to say about either of the performances. The trio killed it, and Kelly saved Kymberli and Zaxai, while Blake stepped in to save Natasia.
Team Jennifer: MaKenzie Thomas singing “How Deep Is Your Love” vs. Mike Parker singing “Breakeven”
Makenzie has one of the best voices this season, but her Knockout performance was not all that. Mariah was taken aback in rehearsals and even shed a tear. We didn’t know that was possible, but stranger things have happened.
Similarly, Mike’s voice was all over the place when it came to the actual performance, but Makenzie secured a narrow victory, while Mike was sent home.
Team Blake: Funsho singing “Earned It” vs. Katrina Cain singing “Don’t Let Me Down”
Mariah gave some solid advice to Funsho: pull back and relax. That was enough for him to tower above Katrina Cain, who languished with her performance.
Blake saved Funsho, but nobody saved Katrina.
Team Jennifer: Patrique Fortson singing “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing” vs. SandyRedd singing “Dangerous Woman”
Patrique’s pacing was the issue for Mariah, and she helped him work on it, with some of her signature wit thrown in.
SandyRedd was given a similar set of commands, and both performances were solid if a little unspectacular.
Jennifer saved Patrique and SandyRedd, so that’s a plus!

Mariah Carey Accused by Ex-Manager of Nudity and Sex Acts
Mariah Carey has faced a number of challenges and setbacks during her life and career. This, however, could cost Mariah her reputation.
Her former manager is gearing up to sue her.
Mariah is accused of sexual harassment … and of just generally being naked all of the time.
This isn’t the first time that Mariah Carey has been accused of inappropriate behavior and inappropriate workplace nudity.
This time, however, it isn’t by a security guard — it’s by her former manager, Stella Stolper.
TMZ reports that she is suing Mariah Carey and accusing the singer of sexual harassment.
The accusations go beyond inappropriate nudity.
Mariah allegedly did “sexual things” while naked and in the presence of her management. That is, folks, not appropriate behavior in the vast majority of professional environments.
Stella’s team has filed documents alerting Mariah’s people that a lawsuit is in the works.
There is more, beyond the “I love being naked around people whose jobs require them to be near me” issue, which in and of itself matches up with previous accusations levied against her.
Stella will reportedly accuse Mariah of having a substance abuse problem.
One of her issues is allegedly that she doesn’t take her meds for her bipolar disorder.
When you have bipolar disorder, randomly not taking your meds can be dangerous and can lead to disastrous losses of impulse control.
Stella apparently plans to levy more accusations against Mariah that will make these accusations pale in comparison.
Stella’s papers say that Mariah fired her while she was in the middle of a three-year contract.
She says that Mariah still owes her a major payday for that.
It seems like, if Mariah just pays her what she says that she owes her, this lawsuit might never happen.
But it doesn’t sound like Mariah is interested in handling this quietly.
Her rep tells TMZ:
“If this frivolous and baseless claim is filed, we will defend against it vigorously and successfully.”
Previous accusations against Mariah, made by a man who had worked security for her, are hauntingly similar.
He, also, accused her of deliberately exposing herself to him and even instructing him to enter rooms where she was already posed and naked.
Mariah would also allegedly say hateful things to the men employed to protect her.
For example, she would refer to white men on her security team as members of the KKK, or would simply announce that she did not want white people around her but would prefer to be surrounded by black men.
People deserve a basic level of respect, and it doesn’t sound like Mariah was giving that to her security team.
We should mention that these are far from the wildest accusations leveled against Mariah Carey.
Her own (estranged) sister has claimed that Mariah grew up in a Satanic sex cult. She described alleged childhood memories of animal sacrifices and chanting and other visuals from a bad 1980s horror movie.
It is always important to consider which accusations sound credible and which accusations sound like a desperate cry for help by someone who is clearly troubled.
It’s worth noting that everyone accusing Mariah of nudity and sexual misconduct has something to gain — a financial payout that they say that they are contractually owed.
That said, just because someone has something to gain doesn’t mean that they aren’t owed anything.
Is this just another lawsuit … or is this a brand new #MeToo story, being leveled at Mariah Carey?

Mariah Carey Opens Up About Bipolar Disorder
Over the years, Mariah Carey has been the source of many rumors, related both to her personality and her lifestyle in general.
Did you hear, for example, that she may have been involved in a Satanic sex cult as a child?
In the latest issue of People Magazine, however, the legendary artist separates at least one fact from whatever fiction may or may not be out there about her.
Carey admits that she has been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder.
This illness can mean many things to the individual who is afflicted with it, but it is most generally associated with episodes of mood swings, ranging from depressive lows to manic highs.
Carey tells People Editor-in-Chief Jess Cagle that she was actually diagnosed way back in 2001 – when she was hospitalized for a physical and mental breakdown – but “didn’t want to believe it” at the time.
Mariah then expounded:
“Until recently I lived in denial and isolation and in constant fear someone would expose me.
“It was too heavy a burden to carry and I simply couldn’t do that anymore.
“I sought and received treatment, I put positive people around me and I got back to doing what I love: writing songs and making music.”
Carey, of course, has always been known for having an eccentric personality.
She’s been considered high-maintenance and very demanding.
The word diva has often been thrown around across the Internet.
It’s also worth noting that Carey is one successful solo artist of all time.
She has a whopping 18 number-one hits to her name and more than 200 million records sold.
And yet she has been suffering from this disorder for nearly two decades, in relative silence, at least when it comes to public perception.
The singer says she’s currently in therapy and taking medication for bipolar II disorder, which involves periods of depression as well as hypomania.
People writes that this is “less severe than the mania associated with bipolar I disorder, but can still cause irritability, sleeplessness and hyperactivity.”
Mariah is also in the studio these days, working on an album that she hopes to release toward the end of 2018.
“For a long time I thought I had a severe sleep disorder,” she explains.
“But it wasn’t normal insomnia and I wasn’t lying awake counting sheep.
“I was working and working and working … I was irritable and in constant fear of letting people down.
“It turns out that I was experiencing a form of mania. Eventually I would just hit a wall. I guess my depressive episodes were characterized by having very low energy.
“I would feel so lonely and sad – even guilty that I wasn’t doing what I needed to be doing for my career.”
Why has she come forward now, after all this time?
“I’m just in a really good place right now, where I’m comfortable discussing my struggles with bipolar II disorder. I’m hopeful we can get to a place where the stigma is lifted from people going through anything alone. It can be incredibly isolating.
“It does not have to define you and I refuse to allow it to define me or control me.”
For more on Mariah Carey and her battle with bipolar disorder, dealing with fame and raising twins, pick up the latest issue of People.
It goes on sale Friday, April 13.

Audrey Kriss: Get to Know Mariah Brown"s Girlfriend
On a very recent episode of Sister Wives, the family met Mariah’s girlfriend. Meeting the family can be a big deal, but that’s even more the case when the family is comprised of polygamous reality stars.
Despite Mariah’s very complicated family, things actually went really well.
But the episode left viewers wanting to know more about Audrey Kriss.
As most viewers still remember, Mariah’s coming out wasn’t initially as well-received as one might hope.
Obviously, it went way better than it does for those LGBT kids who face violence or get disowned. But her mother, Meri, spent more time grieving her dreams of her daughter marrying a man and the son-in-law she always imagined she would gain than she did celebrating her daughter.
(Of course, not all straight daughters get married, so Meri had made a lot of assumptions)
But, as you know if you watch Sister Wives online, things are so much better now. And fans and viewers have now gotten to see Mariah introduce her girlfriend to her family.
And, though Mariah was clearly tense and ready for things to go horribly wrong at any moment, things went amazingly well.
Admittedly, Kody Brown did put his foot in his mouth — no real shocker there — by being dismissive of some of the women in his life going to a march.
Because he thinks that everyone’s focus should be on legalizing polygamy, since he seems to believe that the push for LGBT rights is over.
He seems to be forgetting, of course, that plenty of states still allow businesses to fire employees for being gay, not to mention the many restrictions faced by the transgender community. Plus the prejudice and violence that too many LGBT Americans face every single day.
However, he does have a point — many suggest the next political push in terms of marriage should be to legalize polyamory. Really, the only complicated part of that is taxes and inheritance.
But thankfully, the part of the episode where Audrey met Mariah’s family went off without much of a hitch.
And the episode came just in time for Mariah and Audrey’s one-year anniversary, which was Monday night.
Audrey celebrated with a sweet anniversary post to Instagram, writing:
“One year. What can I say that would do this past year justice? Who the heck knows but I’ll give it a try.”
A lot of people worry that they can’t adequately express their emotions through words. Fortunately, love has many languages.
“This year has been one of the single greatest years of my life. I’m the luckiest girl in the world to have you by my side.”
That is so heartwarming.
“You stick with me through thick and thin, even though I tickle you to the point you get mad at me.”
Believe it or not, some people like being tickled. Mariah is clearly not one of them.
“I love you more and more every single day. Cheers to this past year and many many more to come!”
For her part, Mariah wrote on Instagram:
“Thank you for being the love of my life, for going on adventures with me even when you are sleepy, & loving me even when I’m being a brat.”
That sounds so cute. A little self denigrating. But mostly just super cute.
“You make my life incredible.”
But that post came a little before their Februarty 19th anniversary date. Well, that’s the anniversary of when they went Facebook-official.
(As we said, Meri has really come around … even though she’s still not in a great place, marriage-wise)
Audrey Kriss is an artist, and of course a fellow Westminster College student. She’s from Littleton, Colorado, but she lives in Salt Lake City where she works as a golf instructor.
Both Mariah and Audrey are dedicated feminists, attending women’s marches (though Mariah couldn’t make it this year) and striving to make the world a better and more equal place.
We have to say that it’s a really good sign that their relationship is so secure that Audrey isn’t weirded out by Mariah’s family life. And to be clear, we don’t mean the polygamy aspect so much as the reality star thing.
In fact, Audrey’s publicly listed interests include Taylor Swift, Harry Potter, Apples to Apples, and Sister Wives.
That’s one supportive girlfriend.

Mariah Carey Grew Up Amid Animal Sacrifices, Satanic Sex Rituals: Report
Mariah Carey has been at the center of some interesting rumors over the years.
There was a lawsuit that alleged she only likes black guys, for example.
And there’s been constant chatter over diva-like behavior that centers on some outlandish demands while the singer is on tour.
But the following report is a new one.
And a rather unusual one, we might say.
Anyone might say, really.
According to Radar Online, Mariah was raised by a mother who was deeply involved in some kind of dark cult.
It allegedly featured the sacrificing of animals in front of a young Carey, along with some bizarre sexual activity.
“At a very young age, both Mariah and her sister, Alison, were involved in the ceremonies and participated in them,” a family source tells Radar.
The artist grew up in Long Island and Alison herself spoke to the aforementioned website, saying she has memories of being taken by her parent to some kind of giant “castle.”
Explains the superstar’s sibling:
“It was there that the satanic rituals, led by my mother, took place. I remember people wearing hooded cloaks, standing in a circle and chanting.”
Ummm… yikes?
And may we also add: WTH?!?
“There was also sexual activity and [animal] sacrifices, which the participants believed would please the deity they were there to worship,” Alison continues.
It may be worth pointing out here that Alison is HIV-positive, broke and living in a halfway house in upstate New York.
Does this mean she’s lying? No.
Does it mean she may not be the most reliable source? Yes.
Mariah has made references in the past to her uncomfortable upbringing, however.
She has mentioned in long-ago interviews that she was “embarrassed” by her mom’s behavior at times.
The singer never got into specific likes Alison does here, though.
“I was trained to run ‘The Group!’” she told Radar, expounding in disturbing detail:
“At first, as a small child, I would not understand what was happening – being forced to watch as a struggling animal was violently killed in front of me.
“But as I grew older, I began to comprehend the horror of it, and that it was something most children were not exposed to.”
Alison claims local police remained quiet and didn’t interfere because some cops were “a part” of the cult.
Mariah’s sister is a mother of four who has worked as a prostitute and was once a heroin addict.
She was hospitalized in 2015 for major brain trauma after some kind of serious attack.
She has reached out to Carey over the years for financial assistance, but has been rebuked every time.
So, again, this doesn’t automatically mean Alison is lying. But let’s take her claims with a grain of salt the size of Carey’s ego.
“Mariah, I love you, and I desperately need your help! Please don’t abandon me like this!” she concludes in her Radar interview.

Mariah Carey on New Year"s Eve: Did She Redeem Herself?
We really should have known, people.
We should have known a year ago at this time that 2017 would be a debacle, considering the way it kicked off:
With a Mariah Carey performance from Times Square that was, to put it simply and bluntly, the worst thing we had ever seen or heard.
We"re very sorry to remind you of what transpired, but refresh your memory of the debacle below:
The sound was off. Mariah clearly didn"t know the words. It was a mess.
Carey proceeded to blame anyone but herself for what happened, but after seemingly hiding from her transgression and not taking responsibility for her total failure… the legendary singer went out and faced the music last night.
Literally.
She took to the Times Square stage once again on Dick Clark"s New Year"s Rockin" Eve.
This time around, Twitter did not react with laughter and vitriol.
The artist performed two songs and remembered the lyrics to both.
The iconic diva wowed with an impressive medley of "Vision of Love" and "Hero" and even made a quip at her own expense, telling the audience that the night was a "disaster" because she didn"t have her hot tea.
"I"m just going to take a sip of tea, if they"ll let me," Carey said, turning away from the crowd and adding:
"They told me there would be tea. Oh, it"s a disaster. OK, well, we"ll just have to rough it. I"m going to be just like everybody else.
"There"ll be no hot tea."
Indeed, it was FREEZING in New York City.
Was Mariah"s performance red hot?
Not really. She definitely lost a bit from her prime.
But the bar was set so low to conclude 2016 that as long as Carey didn"t trip 12 times on stage, she was likely to clear it.
When the cameras stopped, sources tell Billboard that Carey was all smiles and gushed “I love you” back to her adoring fans.
Check out the quasi triumphant return below:
