  • Alison Carey: Brother Disgusted Mariah Carey Won’t Help Dying Sister

    Alison Carey is dying. Her brother Morgan is beyond disgusted that their sister, multi-millionaire Mariah Carey, won’t help her get the medical care she so desperately needs.

    Morgan Carey spoke out against Mariah Carey in a recent interview with The Sun.

    “She probably spends more on dog food than it would cost to make sure her sister gets properly cared for,” he said.

    “Your sister is dying and she is struggling and where are you?” Mariah Carey’s brother demanded via the media. “You think you are so fabulous, but you are a witch.”

    Alison Carey, 54, is a mom of four. She needs brain and spinal surgery.

    “Mariah needs to step up. I flew in from Hawaii last year when Alison was taken off a ventilator, believing she was going to die,” Morgan said. “My sister didn’t even show up at the hospital.”

    “Thankfully Alison had a miraculous recovery but now she needs brain and spinal surgery and will be going into hospital any day,” he added.

    Mariah allegedly doesn’t answer any of Morgan or Alison Carey’s phone calls.

    “Alison has desperately reached out to Mariah over and over again. We never hear back,” Morgan said.

    Morgan claims Mariah Carey never replied when told his wife had a miscarriage either.

    “I told Mariah my wife had miscarried and she never even responded to that email either,” he said. “But that’s typical, because the world has to revolve around Mariah and there is no room in the world apart from her.”

    “It is so tragic that while she is out flashing her big diamond ring to anyone who will pay attention, she can’t lift a finger to help her dying sister,” Morgan added.

    Despite Mariah Carey’s many downfalls where her family is concerned, Morgan Carey doesn’t hate her.

    “When I think of Mariah, in spite of all her shortcomings and her betrayals of me, I think of her with pity and compassion, because I know how she had to grow up,” he said.

    Alison Carey struggled with a heroin addiction in her past, and at one time was allegedly a prostitute.

    Despite the family’s past, they’re still siblings. It’s sad when one–like Mariah Carey–has so much, while others–like Alison Carey–are so desperately in need of more.

    How long do you suppose Mariah, Morgan, and Alison Carey have lived this estranged lifestyle?

  • Mariah Carey Lands Yet Another Outrageously Rich Man

    Mariah Carey may have her another rich man. The Sydney Morning Herald reports that Carey is jet-setting with Australian billionaire and entertainment mogul James Packer.

    Carey and Packer were spotted hand-in-hand on the streets of Capri, in the south of Italy on Friday.

    While most recent media attention for Mariah Carey has been regarding her split from Nick Cannon, the America’s Got Talent host was not her first husband. That honor went to former Sony head honcho Tommy Mottola. It was Mottola who guided Mariah Carey’s career to the top of the charts.

    Motolla and Carey met when she was 19 and working as a backup singer. They married when Mariah was 23. For her walk down the aisle with Mittola, Carey wore a $250,000 Vera Wang gown with a 25-foot-long train.

    After their divorce, Mottola said his relationship with Carey had been “absolutely wrong and inappropriate,” a phrase many men have used to describe a past relationship at one point or another.

    Now Carey, who no doubt has plenty of money herself, may well be back in ten-figure income territory with James Packer. According to reports, Carey and Packer have been friends for years, and were introduced through his business partner, filmmaker Brett Ratner. Packer and Ratner own RatPac Entertainment together, and Ratner is behind Mariah Carey’s latest video for her song “Infinity.”

    Packer has been married twice before, most recently divorcing his second wife Erica Packer in 2013. The couple had three children together. Sources say that Packer and his ex had an amicable parting, as did Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon. He was rumored to have had flings with a few supermodels, but is said to have “aggressively pursued” Mariah Carey.

  • Lady Gaga Takes A Selfie With Pop Superstar

    Lady Gaga has amassed quite a fan following, but she may have doubled it over the weekend when she posted a selfie on Instagram with pop superstar Mariah Carey.

    The duo were backstage at Carey’s show at the Beacon Theater in New York and snapped a couple of pics, with Gaga calling Carey “legendary”.

    “Hey ladies, Merry F-cking Christmas, Love, Mariah and Gaga. This lady is so kind, such a star, and sounding legendary tonight at Beacon Theatre,” she wrote.

    Carey also shared a photo of the duo from a different angle, wishing her followers a merry Christmas.

    Carey has been in the headlines lately with husband Nick Cannon, as the couple are reportedly headed for divorce. Cannon has also been fending off rumors that he was involved in model Amber Rose’s recent split from rapper Wiz Khalifa.

    “Nick’s not a part of Amber’s relationship with Wiz. He’s got respect for both Amber and Wiz and was shocked when he himself heard the news they were breaking up just like everybody else,” a source told HollywoodLife.com.

  • Mariah Carey, Nick Cannon Officially Separated

    Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have been dodging rumors for several months now that they’re separated, but Cannon confirmed it today during an appearance on Good Morning America.

    Cannon says that the couple’s main focus is on their two children, especially now that the holidays are coming up.

    “Always focus on family. We’ll forever be family. At the same time, we’re there for our children, making them the No. 1 priority and understanding they’re loved and can have an amazing holiday,” Cannon said.

    Carey was in headlines recently when she showed up late to her performance at Rockefeller Center last week and then seemed to be having voice difficulties. According to a source at People Magazine, the star was late because she was meeting with divorce attorneys.

    Cannon was on the talk show this week to promote his new book, Roc And Roe’s 12 Days Of Christmas, which is based on his children with Carey.

    “They’re full of so much personality I was inspired to write this book. Each and every day with them is crazy,” he said.

  • LeAnn Rimes Bashed For ‘Too Sexy’ Performance at Family-Friendly Tree-Lighting Ceremony At Rockefeller Center

    LeAnn Rimes is being bashed for her “too sexy” performance at the tree-lighting ceremony at Rockefeller Center Wednesday night.

    Rimes sang I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas wearing a leather corset, leaving many infuriated that she would dress so inappropriately for the family-friendly event.

    E! News remarked that both LeAnn Rimes and Mariah Carey took Christmas cheer a bit too far.

    “LeAnn Rimes and Mariah Carey were among the stars who hit the stage for the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting event in New York City on Wednesday night, and they were not shy about flaunting their curves in front of the thousands who gathered for the ceremony.

    “LeAnn took the stage wearing a black bustier and form-fitting skirt with a high slit that revealed her black thigh-high stockings and an oversized coat that was falling off of her shoulders during the high-energy performance.”

    Many viewers watching the ceremony later took to Twitter to vent their distaste at Rimes‘ choice of attire.

    Wednesday’s wardrobe choice was quite a departure from the elegant dress she sported for Tuesday’s appearance on the Today Show.

    The 32-year-old singer released the first of three holiday-themed EPs, One Christmas: Chapter 1. The album features traditional songs like Silent Night Holy Night and Blue Christmas, as well as I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas.

  • Nick Cannon To Host “Lifestyles Of The Rich And Famous” Reboot

    “Champagne wishes and caviar dreams” indeed. NBC will be reviving the classic TV show Lifestyles of The Rich and Famous and they have tapped none other than Nick Cannon to host the program. Lifestyles of The Rich and Famous was a popular show back in the 80s and 90s. The TV series was hosted by Robin Leach and showed the lavish lifestyles of some of the richest people in the world.

    A year ago, the Style network was tasked to revive the show with Cannon also hosting. However, the plan fell through after the network was rebranded as the Esquire Network. In an interview with E! News back when Style network’s plans to revive the show surfaced, Nick Cannon expressed his excitement at the gig. “Robin Leach passed the torch to me, now I’m producing and hosting the new Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous,” Cannon told reporters. “You know what? I think rich and famous people take themselves too seriously. I’m gonna be just like I am on this show [America’s Got Talent]. I’ll be like what the hell? Gold toilet seats?! Let’s pop bottles.”

    According to reports, NBC’s take on the show is different from Style’s original plan. The new series will focus on Cannon’s point of view and will feature a more fun take on the profiles of the individuals that they will feature. Aside from the profiles of these individuals and their extravagant lifestyle, the show will also shine the light on their philanthropic efforts.

    Instead of the old tycoons that were featured prominently in the old version of the series, this new take will feature new tech billionaires who have pretty much replaced the old guard when it comes to the nation’s richest people.

    The project will continue Cannon’s partnership with NBC, where he also hosts the hit TV show America’s Got Talent.

  • Nick Cannon Reveals ‘Harshest’ Part Of Mariah Carey Split

    Nick Cannon has been making headlines ever since he and his estranged wife, Mariah Carey, separated.

    Of course, Nick has been accused of cheating on the Elusive Chanteuse singer, which led to all of the separation and divorce rumors.

    However, he quickly refuted the claims. But, other than denying the rumors about his alleged affairs, he hasn’t revealed any details about the problems in his marriage. Now, he’s speaking out.

    On Wednesday, Oct. 8, the America’s Got Talent host chatted with HuffPost Live where he shared some interesting details about their highly-publicized split.

    He also revealed the “harshest” challenge he’s faced with the disheartening situation.

    “Public opinion is the harshest thing about it,” Nick revealed. The 34-year-old actor comedienne expressed his disdain for the public’s need to dissect his every move in regards to such a private matter.

    “Every family, every relationship, all these people go through things and they deal with it the way that they choose to deal with it. But to have someone judging the way you’re dealing with your personal life is always like, ‘Hey, that’s a little harsh.’ But I also know what I signed up for,” he said.

    Although he doesn’t prefer the media’s scrutiny, he revealed he knows exactly how to deal with it.

    “If someone asks me a question, I know how to answer it. If I have to say, ‘At this time I’d rather not say that,’ or misdirect, it is what it is,” Cannon said. “But it’s truly, at the end of the day, it’s all about why these people feel or why the public feels like they need information and you have to tell them.”

    Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey publicly announced their split in August of 2014. They tied the knot on April 30, 2008. Three years later on their wedding anniversary, she gave birth to their two children – fraternal twins, Monroe and Moroccan.

  • Nick Cannon Says He Didn’t Cause Amber Rose’s Divorce From Wiz Khalifa

    In the wake of reports last week that Amber Rose and rapper Wiz Khalifa are getting divorced, TV host Nick Cannon has been fending off rumors that he is to blame for the couple’s marriage troubles. However, TMZ reported that a source close to Cannon insists that he and his new client have kept their relationship strictly professional. Cannon denies he helped Rose cheat on Khalifa, who has also accused his wife of cheating on him, claims TMZ.

    Cannon recently became Rose’s manager and claims that he only found out about her divorce through her lawyers last week when he signed her as a client. It was only then that they reportedly shared break-up stories, since Cannon is also currently going through a divorce with singer Mariah Carey.

    “Nick’s not a part of Amber’s relationship with Wiz. He’s got respect for both Amber and Wiz and was shocked when he himself heard the news they were breaking up just like everybody else,” revealed a source to HollywoodLife.com. The source added that their relationship was strictly friendship and business, but “more business than anything.” The source also said that Cannon was not giving his client relationship advice and that their conversations were mostly about making money and finding more work for Rose. “Nick’s not a counselor and has his own marital problems that he’s dealing with. Amber is cool, he think she’s a good girl but he’s not trying to put himself in the middle of a breaking marriage like everyone is making it out to be,” said the source.

    DailyMail reported that Rose filed for divorce from Khalifa the day after she caught him with another woman at 2 AM. Rose had apparently arrived unannounced at the house Khalifa had moved into after the breakdown of their marriage. According to TMZ, Khalifa had made it clear to Rose that the marriage was over two weeks before the incident and insisted that he wasn’t cheating on her at the time.

  • Amber Rose’s Career Gets A Boost With Help From Nick Cannon

    Amber Rose garnered fame soon after dating rapper Kanye West. Her career is about to get a boost with a new development. The 30-year-old has just signed up to be managed by Nick Cannon, and according to TMZ, he’s already gotten her a television series and a book deal.

    A representative has confirmed that Rose is now teaming up with Cannon, saying, “Amber Rose is indeed a client under Nick’s NCredible Entertainment Management Team.” This partnership is a continuation of previous work Rose had done with Cannon. She previously starred in the film School Dance, which he directed, and appeared on the season finale of the show he hosts on MTV2, Wild ‘N Out.

    According to TMZ, the television series that Rose has signed up to do is a fashion show that’s about female empowerment. Meanwhile, the book deal for Rose is reportedly pushing through, although the site couldn’t confirm what it would be about.

    Rose was formerly a stripper before she became famous for dating West. She was also once signed to Ford Models and released a single in 2012 in the hopes of becoming a recording artist.

    Page Six reported that Rose flew to New York on Thursday to meet with Cannon. Their relationship is reportedly purely professional as Rose is married to rapper Wiz Khalifa and they have a son together.

    Cannon himself is married to singer Mariah Carey, but the couple has reportedly separated, with Cannon currently living at a downtown Manhattan hotel. However, he and Carey have apparently remained cordial with one another as they co-parent their children, Monroe and Moroccan Scott. The Wild N’ Out host has been rumored to be seeing other women. A source told Page Six, “He’s not trying to hide — he’s moving on and he’s going after women.”

  • Mariah Carey Adds Australia to Her Chanteuse Tour

    Pop star Mariah Carey this week announced that her The Elusive Chanteuse Show tour will be stopping in Australia and New Zealand. The singer will arrive in Australia in early November, playing dates in Perth, Adelaide, and Melbourne before moving on to Yarra Valley, Sydney, Auckland, and Brisbane.

    The Elusive Chanteuse Show was announced last month. The tour is being organized in support of Carey’s latest album, Me. I Am Mariah… The Elusive Chanteuse.

    The tour is set to begin in early October with dates in Tokyo and Yokohama, Japan. Carey will continue to play in cities throughout Asia during October including Seoul, Shanghai, Taipei, and Bangkok. Her stops in China will be the first time the singer has ever performed on the Chinese mainland.

    The Elusive Chanteuse Show was originally set to begin one year ago, but was postponed when Carey’s album was delayed. The singer’s shoulder injury in July 2013 also contributed to the tour’s delay. Her latest album was finally released back in May, paving the way for this year’s tour.

    Carey is currently rehearsing for the Chanteuse tour. In addition to songs from her new album, the singer stated last month that the tour’s set list will include her big hits, fan-favorites from past albums, and even some surprises. She also recently shared some behind-the-scenes pics of the rehearsals via her Instagram account:

    As Carey has been focusing on the new tour, the entertainment media has been focusing on the singer’s strained relationship with husband Nick Cannon. The celebrity couple have been married for over six years but are now separated. They have two children together.

    The couple’s relationship difficulties started surfacing in early summer with rumors of impending divorce. Though Cannon dismissed the rumors at the time, he confirmed the couple’s separation last month.

  • Mariah Carey, Nick Cannon: Are They Over Each Other?

    Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are reportedly headed straight for divorce.

    But, now that the two have officially separated, the aftermath is reportedly worse than ever.

    According to Hollywood Life, the Elusive Chanteuse singer isn’t handling their split very well. An insider close to the 45-year-old singer shared a few details about her emotional state as a result of their marital problems.

    For those who missed it, Nick allegedly cheated on his wife several times. Needless to say, she’s reportedly humiliated about her husband’s alleged infidelity.

    “Family and close friends are worried about her,” a source revealed. “She’s a loose cannon and feels humiliated. She’s too caught up with what others think of her. And she does have a past of self-destructive behavior. She needs professional help and tons of support right now.”

    Another insider spoke with OK! Magazine about Mariah’s alleged crying spells. “She’s falling apart and totally on edge,” the source said. “She feels like a failure.”

    However, her alleged depression hasn’t put a hold on her career. Regardless of her emotional state, she’s still pressing forward with her upcoming Elusive Chanteuse world tour.

    Nick, however, is reportedly a different story. On Sunday, September 7, the 33-year-old rapper-actor was actually spotted partying in New York City at the Ainsworth. An eyewitness gave a brief account of Nick’s night at the party.

    “He was partying and having a great time,” the eyewitness revealed. “He didn’t look like someone who was reeling from a break up. But he stuck with water, he turned down shots and alcohol each time it was offered to him.”

    Although he reportedly enjoyed the night in NYC, another source also spoke with OK! Magazine about his sentiments of the pending divorce. His partying is reportedly just a façade to mask how he really feels about their split.

    “Nick doesn’t like to talk about it,” a source told Ok!. “But it’s really affecting him. He always looks drained and tired and he’s getting thin in the face. His life is crumbling, and it’s hard to watch.”

    Only time will tell if all of the divorce rumors are true.

  • Mariah Carey Continues To Focus On Upcoming Tour

    During difficult times, some people just like to stay busy. It looks like Mariah Carey is one of those people. Even though she is in the middle of separating from Nick Cannon, her husband since 2008, the pop singer is staying the course, putting her energy into her two kids and her upcoming tour.

    Carey took to Instagram on Saturday night, posting two pictures that showed the diva in full rehearsal for her upcoming “The Elusive Chanteuse Tour.” The tour is set to begin in Tokyo, Japan on October 4. Carey will also hit several other cities in Asia. However, no additional dates have been announced just yet.

    The tour is a big one for the super star, who has been busy raising her three-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan Scott. Carey has not had a major world tour since 2006’s “The Adventures of Mimi.”

    “I want to experience the spontaneity and emotion that I put into this album on stage with my fans,” Carey said in a statement. “I can’t stop writing songs so don’t be surprised if you hear a brand new song that I just wrote the night before the show in your city!”

    The tour will most likely feature several cuts from Carey’s latest release, Me. I Am Mariah … The Elusive Chanteuse. The album dropped on May 23. It debuted at No. 3 with 58,000 units sold. It was Carey’s fourteenth studio album.

    Meanwhile, Cannon is staying busy as well. The America’s Got Talent host was in Toronto last weekend hosting a Pepsi Pop Up concert. Cannon took to Twitter last week in defense of his estranged wife and to lash out on the media.

    Sources that are close with the couple revealed that Cannon and Carey have been living separately since June. There are also rumors that the singer has begun the divorce process.

  • Mariah Carey Dives Into Work To Dodge Divorce Rumors

    Two photos posted on Instagram by singing sensation Mariah Carey are showing that the diva is getting back to work to avoid the recent storm of rumors surrounding her marriage. The photos Carey posted show her rehearsing for her upcoming tour The Elusive Chanteuse Show, which kicks off on October 4 in Tokyo, Japan.

    Carey posted the photos on Saturday, on her Instagram account, which has 1.83 million followers. The first photo was captioned, “Last night’s rehearsal for #TheElusiveChanteuseShow,” and showed her standing by a grand piano in a black sleeveless mini-dress.

    In the second photo, she was joined by one of her five Jack Russell terriers, Jill E. Beans, who looked as if she was barking along with the music. Mariah hid her eyes with sunglasses but was smiling in the photo.

    “I want to experience the spontaneity and emotion that I put into this album on stage with my fans. I can’t stop writing songs so don’t be surprised if you hear a brand new song that I just wrote the night before the show in your city!” Carey said in a statement about the tour. The Elusive Chanteuse Show is staged to support Carey’s latest album, Me. I Am Mariah … The Elusive Chanteuse. The album debuted at No. 3 with 58,000 units sold after it was released on May 27 of this year.

    The Elusive Chanteuse Show will see Carey touring all throughout Asia in October, which will keep her busy as rumors about her divorce with America’s Got Talent host Nick Cannon are reaching their peak. E! recently reported that “Mariah has started the divorce process.” Cannon, however, is reportedly denying on Twitter that he ever hinted that the marriage was troubled before.

    Claims that he said there was “trouble in paradise” when asked about the marriage last month were untrue, he said. “’Trouble in Paradise’ is the dumbest phrase I’ve ever heard! I would never say that s***,” he recently tweeted.

  • Mariah Carey And Nick Cannon: Are The Rumors True?

    Rumor has it that Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are considering a divorce. Sources close to the couple have claimed that Mariah and Nick are not living together and have been separated since June. It is also rumored that Mariah has already started the divorce process.

    Neither Nick nor Mariah has said much about their relationship to the media nor have they confirmed or denied the divorce rumors. Nick has been a little more willing to discuss their split than Mariah and has allegedly told several sources that he does not live with his wife any longer.

    Mariah likes her privacy and seems to prefer keeping her personal life a secret. A source close to the couple claims that she has even banned Nick from talking about the split.

    “Nick and Mariah have the paperwork in place for the break up. Both will not have to give away their fortunes, and will split very easily in legal terms,” mirror.co.uk quoted a source as saying.

    “The one clause that is a problem is that he must not speak about Mariah or kiss and tell. If he does, Mariah can come after him legally. Mariah has always been controlled about her personal life. Nick is a much more open book and could face troubles if he lets slip,” the source added.

    Nick recently responded to the rumors on his Twitter account and seemed to suggest that he and Mariah are definitely dealing with some issues, although he did not say what those issues were.

    He also seemed angry about the rumors and claimed that the sources who are spreading them are not being truthful.

    Mariah on the other hand, has chosen to ignore the rumors and is focused on her career and tour.

  • Mariah Carey: Nick Cannon Has Something To (NOT) Say

    For a man with nothing to say, America’s Got Talent host Nick Cannon has said an AWFUL lot recently.

    One would think his elusive chanteuse and soon to be ex-wife Mariah Carey hadn’t slapped a big fat gag order across his mouth.

    Nick Cannon took to Twitter on Wednesday and hashed out his feelings in an epic Twitter rant.

    All with the intended purpose of demonstrating his ability to shut up about shutting up.

    Probably not the best way to go about it, Mr. Cannon.

    Nor it is a convincing action to take as the gag order came about after statements attributed to Cannon made their way to the public.

    Yahoo’s The Insider claimed they landed an “exclusive” regarding their marriage crisis back in August.

    A man named Chris Spencer appeared on the program as a “source” and said that he was aware of exclusive details about the situation. Spencer claimed that the 33-year-old television personality informed him that he and the 44-year-old Carey were experiencing a “rough patch”. Cannon also allegedly told Spencer that the two were “living separately”.

    While the source denied that infidelity was the cause, many in the media continue to float cheating rumors.

    The report on The Insider report and gossip articles are no doubt what drove him to have a meltdown on Twitter.

    However if people are struggling to believe Cannon, it’s likely because he has a lengthy history of over-sharing about private matters.

    Cannon’s alleged statements to members of the press has, according to E! only served to royally piss-off Carey.

    Some claim that Cannon’s talkativeness is one of the major reasons why Carey chose to leave him. The revelation back in March that he had slept with Kim Kardashian and other starlets was said to be the final straw.

    If there are any positives to take away from the situation, it’s that both he and Carey seem to be united in wanting the best for their two young children.

    It is nice that Cannon continues to sing the praises of the mother of his children to the press, but one can’t help but wonder if the glowing praise is all wanting to get back with Carey.

    There could also be the fear of God put into the man by Carey’s legal team. Just a thought.

    Anyway, here is the full rant courtesy of Cannon. Enjoy!

  • Mariah Carey: Nick Cannon Reportedly Not Ready To Call It Quits?

    Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are headed for divorce. It’s no secret.

    However, are they both in agreement with going their separate ways? According to E! News, the answer is no! An insider close to the couple shared some details about their opposing perspectives.

    While Mariah is ready to throw in the towel, Nick reportedly wants another chance. “Mariah has started the divorce process. She’s getting all her ducks in a row,” the source revealed.

    “Nick recently asked if she wanted to bring in a marriage counselor” to work through their marital problems. However, the Grammy Award-winning singer isn’t having it. “She won’t be caught off-guard again,” the source said.

    “She was devastated when he spoke out about their issues. She’s started the proceedings to make sure the ball is in her court from now on.” The source went on to discuss Mariah’s current plans.

    The Elusive Chanteuse singer is making plans to purchase a new home. She has reportedly been spending lots of time in Atlanta looking at homes in the Buckhead area.

    However, real estate isn’t her only reason for traveling down south. The “Art of Letting Go” singer has also been making career moves, meeting with producers and songwriters so she can begin working on her next project.

    Although the mother of two was reportedly devastated about her husband’s alleged affairs, the source revealed she’s holding up much better than most would expect.

    “Mariah’s been looking at houses. She may want to spend time in Atlanta after the tour. She’s not too sure about anything right now, but she has been seeing houses,” the source revealed. “She’s good though. She’s doing better than people think.”

    So, what does Nick think about Mariah’s rumored plans? According to the insider, he’s not ready to let it all go. Nick’s been talking about giving things another try. He wants another chance.”

    Will Mariah Carey give Nick Cannon another chance? Only time will tell.

  • Mariah Carey: No. 1 On Time’s Ultimate Pop Stardom List

    Singing legend Mariah Carey may be having a tough year in her personal life, but her pop star status in 2014 is cemented and secure. Time has given the multi-awarded singer the top spot on “The Ultimate Ranking of Pop Stardom,” which they compiled by examining the top 10 hits on the Billboard charts from 1960 to the present. For each week that a song was on the charts, points were assigned to the artists.

    Carey landed No. 1 on Time’s list because of the longevity of her career and for having major years of success. Over 19 years, Carey scored several top 10 records, and had two years when she scored more than 300 points: in 1995 and 2005. Only 19 times in Time’s analysis did artists score over 300 points in one year, and the fact that Carey’s years were a decade apart speaks volumes about her ability to connect with new generations of music fans.

    The artist in second place on the list was Rihanna, who also bagged two years with over 300 points, in 2008 and 2010. She is followed by Usher, The Beatles and Madonna in third, fourth and fifth places, respectively.

    Usher was found to have had the best performing year in 2004 with the songs “Burn,” “Confessions Part II,” “My Boo” and “Yeah!” spending a total of 26 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard charts. Musical supergroup The Beatles came in second for the year 1964, when they had 11 top 10 singles and six songs at the No. 1 spot.

    Other musical legends that made it to the list of top 50 pop stars include Michael Jackson (No. 8), Elton John (No. 11), Whitney Houston (No. 7) and Stevie Wonder (No. 12). However, many relatively new artists also made the list, such as Katy Perry (No. 9), Beyonce (No. 15) and Bruno Mars (No. 17). Ingénue Miley Cyrus impressively landed on the list with a relatively young career at No. 50.

  • Mariah Carey Is Reportedly Finalizing Her Split With Nick Cannon

    The marriage of singer Mariah Carey, 45, and TV host Nick Cannon, 33, may be coming to an end. The two have reportedly met over details of the divorce. The couple reportedly held a meeting on Tuesday at Carey’s New York City apartment to talk about their divorce agreement.

    According to a source that spoke to E! News, one of the stipulations that the couple discussed was that only one announcement for the divorce would be made, and it would be made by Carey’s team. “Nick said he was fine with this. He knows he really upset her by speaking out of turn last week and has apologized for it,” the source said.

    Cannon told The Insider on August 21 that he and Carey had not been sleeping in the same house in recent months. “There is trouble in paradise,” he said.

    A source told HollywoodLife.com that the marriage had suffered because of the increasing number of fights between Carey and her husband. “They both didn’t want to live under the same roof if they’d be fighting. They didn’t want the staff to know and of course they kept that away from the kids,” said the source.

    However, it is clear that the couple is putting aside their differences in order to give top priority to their children, three-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe. E! News’s source said, “She told him she needed to get out of town and she was taking the kids with her. Nick was fine with it.” The source went on to reveal that Cannon “thinks [Carey’s] a good mom,” and that he isn’t worried about their children’s welfare when they are with her.

    Carey was spotted on Friday with the twins, having lunch at Da Mikele in Tribeca and without her wedding ring. A witness told People that the singer and her children “seemed happy and like they were having a good time.” Meanwhile, Cannon was also seen not wearing his wedding ring while he hosted the August 26 episode of America’s Got Talent.

  • Mariah Carey Allegedly Thinks Nick Cannon Is Immature

    Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have been having some marriage problems, and there have even been rumors that say the couple is considering a divorce.

    While neither Nick nor Mariah has said much about their relationship, a source close to Mariah recently told Closer magazine, that Mariah thinks Nick is immature and even referred to him as a “man child.”

    “Mariah has told friends she’s bored with Nick and that they had been drifting apart for well over a year before he moved out in May. His friends are saying he’s been living in a hotel because the rows between them had become so bad,” the source said.

    “She’s described Nick as a ‘man-child’ and says she can’t deal with his immaturity – she feels they don’t have anything in common anymore and that he still wants to lead the life of a carefree bachelor, while she prefers nights in with the kids.”

    Nick has hinted that the couple’s split was his decision and doesn’t seem too upset with the way the relationship is failing. The source said that Nick felt controlled by Mariah and decided to move out because he was tired of her bossiness and the constant arguing.

    “Nick doesn’t want to live under Mariah’s terms anymore and he’s fed up with all the bickering,” the source added.

    Mariah hasn’t said anything about her relationship with Nick, but one of her reps did release a statement about the situation saying,

    “I am not commenting on Mariah’s personal life, but Mariah is focusing on her children and her upcoming tour.”

    Although Mariah might think it wise to concentrate on her career instead of her failing marriage, her decision to ignore problems may be one of the reasons the relationship is not working out.

  • Mariah Carey, Nick Cannon Have Been Living Apart

    Mariah Carey and husband Nick Cannon have been very public about sharing their love for one another since they married in 2008, renewing their vows every year and posting photos on social media sites of themselves with their two children. But this year, the photo posts were few and far between, there was no vow renewal, and Cannon confirmed on Thursday that the couple have been living separately for several weeks.

    “We have been living in separate houses for a few months. (Right now) my main focus is my kids,” Cannon said.

    Carey hasn’t commented publicly on the split, but according to various gossip sites, a divorce is just around the corner and the couple have already gotten lawyers involved to begin the process of dividing assets and figuring out a custody arrangement for the children.

    Rumor has it that the trouble began when Cannon did an interview in which he discussed losing his virginity and hooking up with Kim Kardashian. (NSFW)

    According to sources, the split is not a sudden thing.

    “They have been living apart for a while. This is not all of a sudden. There have been issues between them for a while. They are not getting along. She wants to end it and it has been in the works for months, which is why her house in the Bahamas and the house in Bel Air are on the market,” a source told E! News.

  • Mariah Carey: Marriage To Nick Cannon Seems Doomed

    Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are on “trial separation” and are possibly on their way to a final split according to reports. Sources claim that the pop diva has been in serious closed-door discussions with her divorce lawyers. Cannon, on the other hand, is not actively seeking counsel.

    “But Nick’s being more passive. He’s less inclined to pull the trigger, perhaps because of the kids. He’ll definitely wait for Mariah to file for divorce, but he won’t go down without a fight. He wants a chunk of her $500 million fortune.”

    The source added: “Nick’s sensible and realizes that the twins would have a more stable existence if Mariah had full custody. But he wants generous visitation rights.”

    The couple caused a stir when they married in 2008 after a two-month whirlwind courtship. She was then 39 and he was 27. Carey gave birth to their children, fraternal twins Monroe and Moroccan Scott, in 2011.

    They used to be very public about their affections for each other, with Cannon posting numerous over-the-top tweets of endearment. Their followers, however, have noticed they have gone cold on social media in the past months.

    Reports of jealousy and suspicion further confirm that the couple are heading separate ways. Carey was apparently so suspect of Cannon’s nightclub hosting gigs that she hired a security guard “…to keep him away from the girls”

    Insiders claim it won’t be long before they officially announce their break up. “When they spend time together these days, it’s just bickering. Mariah seemed to give up on the marriage earlier this year. And now he’s checked out too.”

    The couple had been living apart for most of this year, using home improvements as their cover. They are renovating their $10 million loft in Tribeca and have put their Bel Air mansion up for sale.

    The America’s Got Talent host is apparently staying at his grandparents’ house in the meantime.

    He was spotted Monday night at Tao Downtown and was seemingly all smiles despite the rumors. He was there to celebrate a birthday party for Sujit Kundu, the founder of DJ management firm SKAM artist.
