| 8/31 New US Album Release Date Release Date : November 15 Title : TBA I looked at the order catalog of Universal Music Japan today. US Album will be release on November 15. This catalog had taken up the news of the new album of Mariah first by top news in spite of the October issue. 日本のユニバーサルによると、アメリカでのニューアルバム発売日は11月15日だそうです☆ (source:Universal Music Japan, Love Love Jack) Belgian Release Date for M's New Album Universal Belgium just told Heroes of Mariah the official Belgian release date for Mariah's upcoming album: November the 30th. ベルギーのユニバーサルによると、マライアのベルギーでのアルバム発売日は11月30日だそうです☆ (source:Universal Belgium, Heroes Of Mariah) more info on new album Japan edition 今日もう少しUMJから情報が入ったのでお伝えしますと、日本盤リリースの日程は今のところ何かない限り「予定」ではなくリリース日は確定しているそうです。そしてDVDなどは付かないそうです。またMisty Moonは今ちょっと微妙になってるようです。あと、US盤は11月15日発売で今回はそんなにたいした先行発売ではなさそうです。あと、姫様のプロモ来日が確定したとのことです。まだ先ですので日程は正確に決まってないようですが...。今日の収穫はこんなものです。 (source:Universal Music Japan, Love Love Jack) According to Universal Music Japan, the release date for the Japan edition of the new album (November 10th) is a definite date unless there is something big. There will not be a DVD with the album (in Japan, many artists adds a DVD to their album/single). "Misty Moon" was considered as a bonus track but things are getting subtle. Also, it has been decided that Mariah will come to Japan for promotion! But the dates haven't been decided yet.

(source:UK Flava) ..his(Jadakiss) next release is set to see him in much more commercial territory. The insanely catchy U Make Me Wanna, sees Jadakiss swapping tender rhymes with another honey-voiced vocalist, Mariah Carey, over an ear-catching Eastern influenced beat. The pair first worked together seven years ago on the popular urban remix of Carey’s mega-hit Honey, with Jadakiss putting in an appearance as one half of the Lox. For the past 5 years this busy man has combined roles in both that group and the Ruff Riders while embarking on an intermittent solo career which began with 2001’s Kiss Tha Game Goodbye. Conceding that the video for the Carey duet will be his most ‘sexy’ to date, in a direct appeal to a wider female audience, Mr Raspy clearly expects the slow jam to be his biggest mainstream success to date. Given the across the board appeal of last year’s Carey/Busta Rhymes smoocher I Know What You Want, Jadakiss, whose album also sees him collaborating with the likes of Nate Dogg and Eminem, may well not be far wrong.

From there, Combs plans to crisscross the nation delivering his message. ''We are still making plans, but we plan to be all over Florida,'' he says. (source:Miami Herald) |

| 8/28 Simmons Cancels Anti-Republican Protest 
Hip-hop mogul RUSSELL SIMMONS has cancelled his anti-US President GEORGE W BUSH protest in New York next week (30AUG04) after the costs of the march spiraled out of control.The DEF JAM RECORDS founder, who has been encouraging the youth vote at his HIP-HOP SUMMITS across America, was planning to march down Manhattan's Eighth Avenue on the opening day of the REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION (RNC) on Monday (30AUG04). Simmons is against the President's stance on a host of issues, including immigration and welfare reform, and is so incensed by Bush's policies, he's promised to pay $100,000 (GBP55,500) of his HIP-HOP SUMMIT ACTION NETWORK and STILL WE RISE group expenses. He has also enlisted celebrity pals SEAN 'P DIDDY' COMBS, JAY-Z, the BEASTIE BOYS and MARIAH CAREY to join the protest. Sources claim Simmons decided to cancel the protest after his wife KIMORA LEE SIMMONS was arrested for marijuana possession and driving charges last month (JUL04). 8月30日にNYで、Russell Simmonsがひきいるジョージ・ブッシュ反対のデモにマライアは参加する予定だったが、どうやらこのデモは費用があまりにもかかるということで、中止になったみたいです。また他には、Russell Simmonsの奥さんが逮捕されてからRussellはデモを中止にすることを決めたとも言われてます。 (source:Contact Music) tidbit Rubloff Jet Express, which before the Ryan deal owned nine aircraft -- mostly corporate jets -- and leased two 757s, offered charter service to customers ranging from the Department of Defense to singers Mariah Carey and Janet Jackson and then-presidential candidates Wesley Clark and John Edwards.

(source:Amazon Japan) Stunning in Capri    She was once a troubled pop diva, but now Mariah looks like she hasn't a carey in the world. The busty 34 year old songbird is the picture of health as she takes a rare day off from recording her new album. Bikini-clad Mariah was causing a splash on the beautiful island of Capri off Italy after overcoming her well-publicized personal and professional troubles. Curvy Carey who has sold more than 150 million records, also made waves with a local count. When the rich Italian discovered the singer was in town, he had 100 pink and red roses delivered to her luxury villa everyday. Hidden inside one bunch of flowers, Mariah discovered a small box containing a 50,000 pound diamond bracelet. It was specially chosen by the besotted aristo to tie in with her last album called CharmBracelet. But despite the lavish gift, Mariah is going to have to tell him he's out for the count. She is said to be dating Mark Suddack, one of her management team who has been on tour with her. While the romance blossoms, Mariah hopes the new album will be out early next year and promises something special for fans. As if the view on capri wasn't special enough. マライアは今ニューアルバムのレコーディングのためにカプリ島にいるが、そのことを聞きつけたある金持ちのイタリア人の男性は100本のピンクと赤色のバラをマライアの別荘に毎日送ったそうです！その100本のバラの中からマライアは、5万ポンドもするダイヤモンドのブレスレットが入っている小さい箱を見つけたみたい☆その金持ちの男性は、マライアの前回のアルバム“チャームブレスレット”にちなんでそのブレスレットをあげたらしい。でもマライアは今マークと付き合っていると言われているので、きっとその金持ちの男性はふられるだろう、と書いてあります＾＾； マライアはニューアルバムは来年の始まりに出る予定で、ファンのために何かスペシャルなことをすると約束したらしい☆ (source:The Daily Star, Mariah Daily) Mariah is such yacht stuff

| 8/23 Mariah’s Caprician fashion lesson  American singer Mariah Carey’s seclusion on Mount Tuoro continues at Capri Digital Studios, the Queen of R&B/Pop’s favorite recording studio, and the same one in which she is currently recording her new album. Despite her planetary reputation, the capricious star has received a style lesson from designer Stefano Gabbana in D&G arts. The famous fashionisto, who is also in Capri with his partner Domenico Dolce, had invited Mariah to supper, which she accepted with delight. The meeting was scheduled for 9pm, but it wasn’t until 11pm that Mariah showed up. It was then that Dolce, the other half of the Italian styling team, turned off the outer lights of his yacht and raised a footbridge for the beautiful Mariah, who was escorted by her athletic bodyguards. The singer and designers remained momentarily to talk and later returned to the Piazzetta, Capri’s famous plaza, and sheltered themselves at Franco Schiano’s restaurant, where they were consoled with spaghetti that was flavored with tomatoes from Franco’s home garden. マライアのイタリアでお気に入りの場所は相変わらずマライアの大好きなレコーディングスタジオのカプリ・デジタル・スタジオがあるカプリ島☆マライアはニューアルバムのレコーディングもこのスタジオでやっているみたいです♪そんなカプリ大好きなマライアはD&Gデザイナーのステファノ・ガッバーナからスタイルレッスンを受けたそうです。パートナーのドメニコ・ドルチェと一緒にカプリにいるステファノ・ガッバーナはマライアを夕食に誘い、マライアは喜んでお誘いを受けました☆9時に会う予定だったが、マライアは遅れて11時に登場。ちょうどドルチェがヨットの外側の電気を消して船に乗るための橋を上げているときにマライアはボディーガードにエスコートされて登場した。マライアとD&Gたちは絶えず話をして、その後はカプリの有名な場所であるピアッツェッタに戻り、マライアのお気に入りレストランの“Franco Schiano’s restaurant”に入り、パスタを食べました☆ (source:Mariah Daily) Automatic Princess At Claires Janel Wrote to CLAIRES about Automatic Princess and they responded back to her email and said the following: Hello!

| 8/22 Mariah Wanted for Broadway Show The producers of "Bombay Dreams" are also hoping to line up some sort of pop star to boost sales. They made an offer to Janet Jackson, but so far she hasn't bitten. Mariah Carey is on their list, as is Brandy. Time is not on their side, however. "Bombay Dreams," a $14 million show, only did $475,000 last week, and is poised to go over the cliff in the weeks ahead. ブロードウエイの「ボンベイ・ドリームズ」のプロデューサーたちが売り上げを上げるためにスターを出演させるのを考えていて、今のところジャネット・ジャクソンにオファーしてるけど、断っているみたい。他にリストに載っているのはマライアとブランディー。 (source:New York Post) More on Camp Mariah  Kristin G, the Film Instructor at Camp Mariah, gave us some details about Mariah's visit there a couple of weeks ago, on August 3rd, 2004. Mariah arrived at the camp at approximately 7:00pm. She was accompanied by her manager Louise McNally, her beauty team, her nephew Sean and a reverend among other people who came to talk to the kids. Many press people were present at the visit and Mariah spent some time taking pictures and giving interviews. 170 kids at the camp were divided into four groups and Mariah spent time with each group. She played games with them including one on the grass after which she noticed it was very dirty. She'd commented jokingly: "I didn't know there was so much goose poop here! Gotta have my feet cleaned specially." Afterwards, Mariah, the kids and the camp's counselors all had ice cream in the dining hall. Mariah originally planned to have a big camp fire, but the idea was scraped due to "complex logistics". When talking to her fans at the camp, she mentioned that something had happened to her pink pair of "Automatic Princess" shorts and that she needed new ones. Prior to leaving, Mariah made sure to sign photographs for all those who wanted. Her visit lasted for about three hours. Kristin will try to give us more details of Mariah's visit, but for now, here is a picture of Mariah with the kids taken that day: 8月3日のマライアのCamp Mariah訪問のついて、Camp Mariahのスタッフが少し詳しく教えてくれたみたいです☆マライアはキャンプに午後7時ぐらいに着いて、マネージャーのLouise、メイク・ヘアー・スタイリスト、甥のShawn、そして子供達と話しに来た人や牧師さんも一緒に来たみたい。それからこのマライアのキャンプ訪問を聞きつけたマスコミもたくさん集まり、マライアは写真撮影やインタビューする時間もとってくれたみたい☆ キャンプにいる170人の子供達は4つのグループに分けられ、マライアはそれぞれのグループとゲームをしたりして時間を過ごしました。中には芝生の上で遊ぶゲームがあって、遊んだあとに芝生がすごい汚れていることに気づいたマライアは冗談で“ここにはこんなにガチョウのフンがあったなんて知らなかったわ！足を特別にキレイにしてもらわなきゃ”って言ったみたい☆その後、マライア、子供達、キャンプのカウンセラーたちみんなでアイスクリームを大食堂で食べました。マライアはもともと大きなキャンプファイアーをする予定だったが、できなくなっちゃったみたい。 キャンプでマライアがファンの子たちと話しているとき、自分のピンクのAutomatic Princessのショーツに何かあったらしく、新しいのが必要だわ、って言っていたらしい。マライアが帰る前、サインを欲しがっている人全員にサインすると言い、3時間以上の訪問となった☆ (source:Mariah Daily, Tara Engberg) |

| 8/20 Want To Accessorize With Claire's?  You might remember "Automatic Princess", Mariah's own fashion and accesoiries line. There have been different AP tid bits in the last months and one of them was a rumor saying the US store "claire's" wants to sell parts of the AP collection in their stores starting March 2004. March came and went without finding a trace of AP in different claire's stores.And so it was even more surprising when yesterday a fan reported he saw AP necklaces and bracelets in the claire's store around the corner. Confusion. Then there was a short enlightening moment today, when Mariah's official site did a news update containing names of different malls from different US states. Happiness, confusion and excitement for the fans - are those the places where you can find AP stuff in claire's stores? But just a short time later the news update was gone again. ↓と同じAutomatic Princessについてなんだけど、数日前あるファンがClaire's（クレアーズ）でAutomatic Princessのネックレスとブレスレットを見たと言っていたみたいです！このAutomatic Princessは以前Claire'sで春ごろに発売することになっていたが、なぜかいきなり中止になってしまったのです。だからClaire'sで売っていてもおかしくないんだよね・・。日本にもたくさんClaire'sがあるから、みなさんもどんどん探してみてください☆ (source:Butterflies Are Free) MARIAH´S CLOTHING LINE NOW AVAILABLE Automatic Princess, Mariah's clothing line is now available to buy in select outlets throughout the USA.

| 8/16 Mariah in Capri for Summer Holiday In July and August, the Bay of Naples and the little island of Capri become the forestage of a huge superyachts show. Recently, Regina d'Italia, a yacht measuring "only" 30 metres long, stopped for a few days at the Mergellina piers and waited for August 13 when Dolce & Gabbana, the trendiest fashion stylists couple, set out for Capri. On the contrary, Mariah Carey, the U.S. pop queen, boarded the 46 metres charter called Istranka last Friday when she also left Naples to set out for Capri. This year for her italian summer holiday, she chose a very comfortable charter to visit all of the Bay of Naples' beauties, but she's considering coming back to Naples as soon as she can to visit the city too. マライアは先週からカプリで夏休みを楽しく過ごしているようです♪ (source:Il Mattino di Napoli,MaMi Mariah) |

| 8/14 Camp Thrills: Seeing the Stars, and Then Seeing a Star  Fresh Air Fund campers were playing a hillside game of tag when, just before sunset, a black Mercedes limousine emerged from the woods and rolled to a stop.The children froze. A car door opened. Then came a collective, ear-splitting scream: "Mah-ri-ah!" Mariah Carey, who donated $1 million to the Fresh Air Fund in 1995 and has a camp named in her honor, was walking up the grassy slope in open-toed heels, a cropped top and jean shorts with the words "Automatic Princess" across the back. "What are we playing?" Ms. Carey asked as the young residents of Camp Mariah engulfed her, fingering her long, crimped hair, reaching their arms around her bare waist and taking turns balancing her sunglasses on their noses. They stood there in the dying light, speaking in hushed tones, occasionally erupting into laughter, as if sharing secrets at a sleepover party. The octave-scaling voice that Ms. Carey shows off in songs like "Hero" and "Emotions" was husky and low as she responded to a flurry of questions about her music and her life. When their patter subsided and the game of tag resumed, Ms. Carey joined right in, slipping out of her high heels and running barefoot through the grass. She is a swift runner. As a teenager Ms. Carey sprinted toward a Grammy Award-winning future, secure, she said, in herself and her talent. But she was also running from something. "I knew I didn't want to be where I was," Ms. Carey said while taking a break from the evening's activities in the camp director's cabin. "I knew that I needed to elevate myself in terms of just living. You know what I mean? Just having the life that I wanted to live. I didn't want to open the refrigerator and not have food. I didn't want to feel like the kid with the holes in her sneakers." While shabby shoes are no longer a concern, Ms. Carey still identifies with Fresh Air Fund children because, like them, she grew up poor with big dreams. Fittingly, Camp Mariah, one of five Fresh Air Fund camps in Fishkill for children from New York City, is a career awareness camp, where the work needed to turn dreams into realities is carried out. Over the course of three years, campers from 12 to 14 explore career paths and attend classes including journalism, photography, television and video production. There are also events in New York City during the school year, including a career fair and visits to successful companies. It is the kind of camp Ms. Carey said she wished she could have attended. Instead, she went to a publicly funded camp, which she called horrible. She also attended a performing arts camp, she said, for which her family had to "scrape together" money. But Ms. Carey said she believed that hardship could be a source of motivation. "Obviously music was my love," Ms. Carey said, "But I think I worked twice as hard as a lot of people who maybe had the same dreams but they had it a little easier so they weren't as driven." For more than 125 years, the Fresh Air Fund has been providing needy city children with summer vacations at upstate camps and with host families throughout the Northeast and Canada. "People say their lives were completely changed, just by going up to a host family or to different camps," Ms. Carey said. "They say that before, they had never seen trees and grass and lakes or anything like that. Just that experience in and of itself is amazing, that you can just lie out and look at the stars." The only star the children were gazing at that night, however, was Ms. Carey. "I love her so much, it's not even funny," said Britnee Jackson, 12, of Queens. "I think she's so gorgeous. Some people you meet in person and they act conceited. She wasn't. She gave us hugs. She was very kind." Michael Mitchell, 13, of Harlem, agreed. "She's a great influence on children," he said. "She gave me a hug and said, 'Good luck in the future.' I'm going to take that and write it on my socks." It was after 9 p.m. when Britnee, Michael and other campers gave Ms. Carey the final hugs and high fives of the evening in the dining hall. Soon the campers would be lying in their beds, listening to the crickets. Ms. Carey, on the other hand, planned to unleash her own high notes during a late-night recording session in Manhattan. "Have the best summer of your lives," she said to the campers with a smile. "And lots of love to you all." Families who would like to open their homes to Fresh Air Fund children or register children for a summer vacation can call (800) 367-0003. Tax-deductible contributions to the fund can be made through its Web site, www.freshair.org. They can also be sent to the Fresh Air Fund, 633 Third Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10017. マライアが久々にCamp Mariahを訪れました☆マライアは子供達と一緒に遊んだり、話したり、とても楽しい時間を過ごしたようです＾＾子供達もすごい喜んでたみたい☆ (source:The New York Times, musiKchYld) 'Stay the Night' to be released Oct. 11? According to CoolClarity, an online music forum based in the UK, "Stay The Night" featuring Kanye West is scheduled to be released on October 11 (in the UK). However, keep in mind there has been no official confirmation as of yet. UKの音楽情報サイトのCoolClarityによると、マライアのニューアルバムからのファーストシングルと思われる“Stay The Night (feat.Kanye West)"がUKで10月11日に発売予定らしい。 (source:Cool Clarity) 'U Make Me Wanna' Video in the Works The next video we'll see in support of [Jadakiss]' Kiss of Death LP is "U Make Me Wanna," which features Mariah Carey. The video should be going into production soon, according to the Black Babe Ruth. "I'm supposed to be shooting the me-and-Mariah joint," Mr. Raspy said. "I might do [a split video] like I did for 'Knock Yourself Out' and 'We Gonna Make It.' I might do the Mariah joint and 'By Your Side' at the end, give them a verse. ['U Make Me Wanna'] is gonna be real sexy, though, a little out of my element. That's how I want all my videos from this album to be. 'Why' hit you from left field. I just want it to be one of them joints; big house, big car, one of them videos the ladies like. This is strictly for the ladies, to get me over that hump. I understand the business." Jada is currently on the road as part of the Pepsi Smash Tour with Jagged Edge and Fabolous. Jadakissのニューアルバムからの次のビデオは“U Make Me Wanna"で決まったようです☆もうすぐ撮影が始まるみたいです♪ (source:VH1) |
| 8/13 Mariah Clipping Coupons? Closes Label, Flies Cheap Hot on the heels of our report yesterday concerning Mariah Carey and plagiarism charges comes news that the singer is cutting corners. It's not like she's broke. After all, Virgin Records paid her $49 million to get out of their contract. But still, one worries when we hear that Carey was spotted flying business class to Rome recently before she connected to a commuter flight to the sparkling isle of Capri. Evidently she's doing some recording there despite assurances from manager Benny Medina only a few weeks ago that Carey was past her diva-like ways and was making her new album, like other pop stars, in Los Angeles. On top of that, it seems that Carey has shut down her much vaunted record label. She started MonarC, with a capital C, when she signed with Island/Def Jam Records two summers ago. MonarC has had a butterfly's mortality, I'm afraid, and is now a moth perhaps eating away at Mariah's wardrobe. (This would explain its scantiness.) Carey's new album, which will be released early this fall, will appear on Island/Def Jam itself under the auspices of Antonio "LA" Reid, late of Arista Records. This puts Mariah one step closer to ex-hubby Tommy Mottola, who is running Casablanca Records at Island/Def Jam. マライアは最近カプリ島に行くために一旦ローマに行ったが、そのローマに行くときにビジネスクラスを使ったというニュースです。それからもう一つ！なんとマライアのレーベル“MonarC”が閉鎖されたというニュースです！まだ何も公式に発表されてないので、この記事が嘘だと信じたいです＞＜ Belle&Nae Nae, Sadie, Treyはどうなるんだろう・・。 (source:FOX News) |

| 8/9 New Mariah Album - October 4th? According to HMV Australia, Mariah's new album is scheduled to be released on October 4th, 2004. This is the only source so far that states an accurate release date for Mariah's album and we will keep you updated as soon as there are other confirmations or denials for it. Editor's Note: We just got a word from Mariah's management that claims there is no official date set for Mariah's new album yet. なんとHMV Australiaに、マライアのニューアルバムは10月4日に発売予定と書いてあります！でもこれもどうやらただの間違えで、マライア側もニューアルバム発売予定日は決まっていないと言っています。 (source:Mariah Daily) It seems that HMV Australia, has sadly caused a false alarm. Universal Australia have confirmed that no single release date has been set and that the album is currently scheduled to hit in the later part of November 2004. どうやらHMV Australiaは間違えて10月4日と書いてしまったらしい＾＾；HMV Australiaは、まだシングルの発売日も決まっていないしアルバムの発売日は11月下旬に発売する予定、と言ったそうです。 (source:Mariah Connection Australia)  L.A Reid Appreciates Mariah's New MaterialL.A Reid recently dropped by Mariah Carey's apartment with a song from her upcoming album on the Island label and played it twice, each time rewinding to a subtle verbal twist. "Most people wouldn't have appreciated it," Carey says. 最近L.A Reidがマライアのニューアルバムに入る曲を持ってマライアのマンションを訪れ曲を2回も流して聞いて、評価とかしたそうです☆マライアは“ほとんどの人は（彼の行動を）理解してくれないだろう。”と言った。（この記事はもともともっと長く、L.A. Reidの音楽業界でのことについてです。L.A. Reidはこのマライアお宅訪問のように、普通の責任者とは違うようなことをするみたいです。例えば、Usherの大ヒットアルバム“Confession”の制作の時、L.A. ReidはUsherにアルバムが完成するまでスタジオに残ることを約束させたそうです。 (source:Newsweek) |

| 8/4 Bedingfield Snubs Jackson and Carey  British pop sensation DANIEL BEDINGFIELD has turned down the chance to work with superstars MARIAH CAREY and JANET JACKSON to concentrate on his new album. The IF YOU'RE NOT THE ONE singer, 24, has only just begun to compose again following his horrific car accident in New Zealand in January (04), which left him in a neck brace for months. A music industry source says, "Daniel's on a mission to make everyone else look dull in comparison. "When he started recording the album in Los Angeles, he specifically said he wanted beats better than JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE. He's determined to make sure the album is full of 'head-nodders' as well as housewife-winning ballads. "He's had requests from lots of big name stars to write for them, but all he's thinking about is making his own album solid. He's turned down both Janet and Mariah recently, although he may look at songwriting for them when his album's complete." According to Mariah Daily, two years ago, Daniel Bedingfield wrote on his official site that he was going to work with Mariah. When she was asked about it, she said she had no idea who he was. 今イギリスで人気がある歌手のDaniel Bedingfieldがマライアやジャネットを含めたたくさんの大物アーティストの参加オファーを断ったそうです。彼は今回はどうしても“自分”のアルバムを作りたいみたいです。 Daniel Bedingfieldは2年前自分の公式サイトに“マライアと曲を作ることになった”と書いたけど、その事について聞かれたマライアは“彼が誰だか全然知らない”と言ったそうです。 (source:Contact Music, Mariah Daily) |
