But if the chart-topping chanteuse's reps have anything to say about it, those negative images will soon be forgotten thanks to a carefully coordinated career overhaul. The transformation seems only fitting for the butterfly-loving Carey, who has re-teamed with CAA in a bid to emerge from the cocoon of so-so sales and personal problems. According to the Hollywood Reporter, the talent agency and Carey's manager, Benny Medina, are developing a "multi-pronged approach" to make over Mariah into a "multimedia star." To that end, the octave-leaping singer will not only release a new album this year, but is making like Madonna by penning ("without the help of ghostwriters," her agent is quick to add) an illustrated, semi-autobiographical children's book about a biracial orphan girl, which CAA hopes to turn into an animated series. The trade says there are also plans to have Carey parlay her song-writing skills (she's written 15 No. 1 tunes) into a separate entity that could possibly have her churning out hits for other artists or creating commercial jingles (just ... no). And what of Mariah's stalled acting career? Look for her to emote her little heart out as she treads the boards in the London stage production of "The Prince and the Showgirl" next year. Medina claims there's also talk of an Andrew Lloyd Webber Broadway production. "For everything she's done to this point -- she's been credited as being an incredible vocalist -- but everything else, from acting to songwriting, kind of gets pushed down," Rob Light, head of music at CAA, tells the Reporter. "Our goal is to just take the lid off that talent and let people know who she is." Judging by Mariah's recent outfits, that lid came off long ago.

| 6/23 CAA to get Carey back to famous high notes Rob Light, managing partner and head of music at CAA, asks the important question, "How do you take Mariah Carey, arguably the most successful female singer in history, and reinvent her for the next stage of her career while staying true to exactly who she is?" The past few years been a roller coaster ride for the songbird, who has sold more 150 million albums worldwide since her 1990 debut. In 2001-02, her film "Glitter" flopped, she had a nervous breakdown, and Virgin Records dropped her. Yet, she received critical acclaim for her role in the indie film "Wisegirls," and only six months after she left Virgin, Island Records signed her to a multialbum deal and gave Carey her own label, MonarC. While her first album under the Island deal, "Charmbracelet," wasn't the smash many hoped it would be, it did sell more than 1 million copies in the United States, and her 2003 tour in support of the record grossed $6 million-plus. Now she has re-signed with CAA for representation in all areas, and Carey's manager, Benny Medina, and Light are planning a multipronged approached to remaking her into a multimedia star. Carey is in the process of writing an illustrated children's book about a biracial orphan girl, which Light says could be turned into an animated series. "The children's (project) is a very natural step," Light says. "It's something she's worked on without the help of ghostwriters. She has a whole idea based on her biracial heritage; she thinks there is a huge audience." While Carey is best known for her seven-octave range, she also has penned 15 No. 1 singles. Light says CAA will be looking to utilize her songwriting talent to possibly write for other artists, as well as for jingles, commercials and television. Carey also is looking at theater opportunities. She is set to star in "The Prince and the Showgirl" early next year in London's West End, and Medina says Andrew Lloyd Webber's office has expressed interest in working with Carey on Broadway. Says Light: "For everything she's done to this point -- she's been credited as being an incredible vocalist -- but everything else, from acting to songwritng, kind of gets pushed down. Our goal is to just take the lid off that talent and let people know who she is." Carey's next album, her first with new Island Def Jam chief Antonio "L.A." Reid, is due out this year. Medina says the record will "hit all the marks," from her signature ballads to R&B crossover songs and high-energy dance tracks. She's been working with such A-list producers as Kanye West, Swizz Beats and R. Kelly. "She's an interesting iconic phenomenon," Light says. "Every time a record comes out, it feels as relevant today as when her first record came out. Very few artists can do that." Of course, Carey is likely to tour again after the album's release. "She really enjoyed the last touring experience," Light says. "She really felt she put on a show that was her and connected with the audience. We're looking at the big picture. I think touring will be a part of it." マライアが最近契約したタレント代理業者CAAの会長であるRob Lightさんがマライアについて話してくれました。 Rob LightとマライアのマネージャーのBenny Medinaは、マライアをたくさんの方面からアプローチするマルチメディアなスターに改造する予定だそうです。 マライアは今、バイレイシャルな女の子についての子供本を作っている最中だが、Rob Lightは、もしかしてアニメシリーズになるかもしれないと言っている。Rob Lightは、“この子供本を作るという企画はとても自然な流れでできた。これは彼女がゴーストライターの助けをかりずに一人でやったことである。彼女はバイレイシャルである自分の経験に基づいた考えがたくさんある。彼女は共感してくれる人がたくさんいると思っている。”と言っていました。 CAAはマライアの作詞の才能を活かして、もしかしてマライアは他のアーティストの曲を書いたり、テレビ番組やCMのためにも書くかもしれない。 マライアは来年の初めごろにロンドンで"The Prince and the Showgirl"の劇をやるが、有名なブロードウエイミュージカルの“キャッツ”や“ オペラ座の怪人”の作曲者であるアンドリュー・ロイド・ウェバーの事務所がブロードウエイでマライアと一緒に仕事をすることに興味を示しはじめている、とBenny Medinaが言っています。 Rob Lightは“マライアが今日までしてきたことで賞賛されるのはいつもその美しい歌声だけで、演技や作詞活動はいつも押し下げられてしまう。私達の目標は、そのたくさんの才能のふたを取り、みんなに本当のマライアを見てもらうことだ。”、といっています。 新しいアルバムでは、バラードからR&B、そしてダンスミュージックもあるそうです。そしてKanye West、Swizz Beats、R. Kelly のような有名なプロデューサーと一緒にアルバム制作してます。 Rob Lightは“マライアは興味深くてすごいアイコンだ。毎回アルバムが出るたびに、デビューアルバムが出たときと同じような気持ちになる。これができるアーティストは本当に少ない。”、と言っています。 マライアはニューアルバムが出た後、ツアーをすると思われる。“彼女は前回のCBツアーをとても楽しんだ。彼女は、自分とファンたちとの気持ちが通じ合うような公演ができたと思っている。私達は今大きな計画を立てている。その一部がツアーになると思う。”とRob Lightは言っています☆ (source:The Hollywood Reporter) |

Rather than just working with popular artists these days, West says he'll work with new artists. He believes this way people are more likely to notice his standout products. New artist Talib Kweli's semi-hit "Get by" may not have become as large as it did, had it gone to who it was originally intended - Mariah Carey. "It's better that Kweli got it," West says. "When you work with someone who's already established as a major aritst, like Mariah, it's like putting Legos together." West is currently working with Mariah on her new album, which is due out later this year. マライアのニューアルバム制作に参加しているKanye Westは、有名なアーティストとたくさん仕事しているが、新しいアーティストとも仕事しています。その一人がTalib Kweliで、一緒に制作した“Get By”はある程度ヒットした。どうやらこの“Get By”はもともとKanyeがマライアにあげるはずの曲だったらしい。でもKanyeは“この曲がKweliにわたって良かった。マライアのように一流のアーティストとなっている人は、レゴを組み立てるような感じだ。”と言っている。 "Bling" Character Inspired By Mariah? The spinmeisters at Miramax Books are busily manufacturing buzz about "Bling," the first novel by 31-year-old Erica Kennedy, for which she got a reported seven-figure advance. (Of course, she had to give Miramax the film rights.) This voyeuristic close-up of the hip-hop industry has already made it into the New York Post's Page Six gossip column—not once, but twice. Music-biz playas are supposedly scrambling to get galleys to see if they can recognize themselves in any of the characters, and Naomi Campbell is supposedly bent out of shape over the novel's portrayal of a temperamental, fading supermodel. "I sent a copy to her," Kennedy coyly told NEWSWEEK. "I hope she likes it." "Bling" centers on hip-hop mogul Lamont Jackson (Def Jam boss L. A. Reid—or not), whose motto is "If it don't make dollars, it don't make sense." In order to sell his Triple Large Entertainment label and succeed his aging mentor (Clive Davis—or not) at the major label Augusta Music, he must find a crossover artist, and he discovers Mimi Jean, a gorgeous young biracial singer (Mariah Carey—or not). And then there's that witchy supermodel Vanessa de la Cruz (well, she isn't Heidi Klum), hired to restyle Mimi into a ghetto-fabulous diva. Will Mimi sell herself out for worldly success? And will Miramax recoup its investment? We won't spoil the suspense. Kennedy, a writer for such magazines as In Style and Vibe, grew up in the New York suburbs, graduated from Sarah Lawrence and went to Oxford for a while. "I wasn't living the thug life," she says. But in high school she did meet hip-hop entrepreneur Russell Simmons and became part of his clique. She either has a good memory, good notes—or just a good imagination. Kennedy says most of the book is fiction, and while all these roman a clef rumors may help sales, she believes "the talk diminishes my skills as a fiction writer." So she doesn't want us thinking this is real inside gossip? Like her heroine, she (and Miramax) should be careful what she wishes for.

Miss Carey has also been a patron of the Center's scholarship programs. Mariah Carey Scholarships: Based on family need, these scholarships are given by the noted entertainer, Mariah Carey, a Usdan Center alumna. Granted by the Center's Tuition Aid Committee. How this relates to Mariah: "In 1980 and 1981, at the ages of ten and eleven, Mariah attended a seven week summer camp that focused on the dramatic arts and singing. Patricia Carey (her mother) saved up all year to send her to the program, but felt it was worth the money to nurture Mariah’s creative talents. In her first year at the camp, Mariah landed the role of Hodel in The Fiddler on the Roof; the next year, however, she was made an understudy". マライアは、NYにあるアメリカで最も大きな芸術のサマーキャンプのUsdanセンターの卒業生であることがわかった。マライアが10歳と11歳だった1980年と1981年に、演劇と歌うことに集中した7週間のサマーキャンプに参加していた。マライアの家庭はけっして裕福ではなかったけれど、マライアのお母さんは、マライアの創造的な才能を育成する価値はあると考え、マライアがそのキャンプに行けるように1年間お金を貯めたそうです。 マライアは1年目に“屋根の上のバイオリン弾き”（Fiddler on the Roof）の劇でホーデル（Hodel)の役をやったが、2年目には代役となってしまった。 そして現在このUsdanセンターにはマライアが後援者である奨学金があります。 (source:Usdan, Mariah Planet, Heroes of Mariah) |
| 6/12 Happy Anniversary "Mariah Carey"! 14 years ago today, Mariah's debut album was released to stores all over the world. It debuted at #80 on the Billboard Hot 200 (albums chart) and peaked at #1 where it spent 11 weeks of its total 66 weeks in the top 40, more than any other Mariah album. The album sold close to 10 million copies in the US alone, and received a 9x platinum certification on December 15th, 1999. "Mariah Carey" produced four consecutive #1 singles: "Vision of Love", "Love Takes Time", "Someday" and "I Don't Wanna Cry". 今日はマライアがデビューして14年になります！マライアおめでとう☆ (source:Mariah Daily) Mariah Reunites With Old Catalogue Universal Music Publishing Group has signed superstar artist, songwriter Mariah Carey to an exclusive, worldwide publishing deal. The deal will bring her extensive catalog of hits into UMPG including such great songs as Whenever You Call, When You Believe (The Prince of Egypt), Dream Lover, Always Be My Baby, Emotions, and Someday. Since she began her career, Mariah has become the best-selling female performer of all time, with an incredible 15 #1 singles and two Grammy Awards. Along the way she became the only artist to top the charts in each year of the 1990s, and, with “Heartbreaker,” she pushed ahead of the Beatles as the artist with the most cumulative weeks spent atop Billboard’s Hot 100 Singles chart. この記事の意味があまりよくわかんないんだけど、たぶんユニバーサルがマライアのヒット曲のいくつかをソニーから買い、それを発売するという記事だと思います。そのヒット曲のいくつかはWhenever You Call, When You Believe (The Prince of Egypt), Dream Lover, Always Be My Baby, Emotions, Somedayだそうです。 (source:Universal Music Publishing Group) Carey's kids' books Mariah Carey is planning to turn her life story into a series of children's books. The troubled diva held talks with publishers about an autobiography late last year, but is reportedly now planning to fictionalise her struggles for young readers instead. The proposed series would carry the same name as her forthcoming clothing line - Automatic Princess - and feature a mixed-race girl "navigating difficulties and misunderstandings [and] making the world a better place." Carey, who is part-African American, Venezuelan and Irish, played a similar role in the flop semi-autobiographical movie "Glitter" as aspiring singer Billie Frank. Children's books have become big business for celebrity writers - Madonna's third book, "Yakov and the Seven Thieves", will be published on June 21. Her previous efforts, "The English Roses" and "Mr. Peabody's Apples" have topped bestseller lists. The proposed Automatic Princess titles are still in the planning stages, and no books are likely to be published until 2005 at the earliest. マライアが書く子供本“Automatic Princess”の新たな情報がこの記事に載ってました。どうやら早くても2005年に発売するみたいです☆ (source:Launch) Sandra Leal Handbags Mariah Carey bought them for her friends, and now you can customize your own handbag by choosing a Swarovski Crystal design.

| 6/10 Mariah Carey Plans To Pen Series Of Children's Books Having shelved the idea of writing a memoir, Mariah Carey is pulling a Madonna and wants to do children's books instead. Carey originally planned to write a book focusing on her childhood and growing up biracial, but she took her memoir proposal off the market after discussing a deal with HarperCollins in the fall. Now she hopes to fictionalize her tale and tell it via a series of illustrated children's books, which would carry the title "Automatic Princess" — the same name she uses for her fashion and accessories line. The book series would focus on a biracial orphan girl who goes on a journey of "self-discovery, navigating difficulties and misunderstandings, making the world a better place," a source close to the singer said. There's no proposal for the children's book series in writing just yet, as the project is in the beginning stages. Carey is also focusing on finishing her next album. She's currently collaborating with Kanye West, R. Kelly, Scott Storch, Swizz Beatz and James Poyser for the LP, according to her agent at Creative Artists Agency. The project is expected to be released on her own imprint, MonarC, via Island/ Def Jam later this year. The singer is trying to schedule her next acting gig as well. She plans to join a London West End production of "The Sleeping Prince," a stage adaptation of the 1957 Marilyn Monroe film "The Prince and the Showgirl." Carey will play the part of the showgirl Mary, and might sing a song in that role. マライアが子供本を出すという記事です☆ マライアは以前自分の子供時代、そして自分がバイレイシャルな子として育ったことについての本を出す予定だったが、結局なくなってしまった。しかし今度は自分の物語を小説化し、子供本のシリーズとして売ることを希望しているようです。この本の題名は、マライアの服とアクセサリーブランド名と同じ“Automatic Princess”。本の内容は、両親がいないバイレイシャルな女の子が“自分探し、困難なことや誤解を乗り越えていく、そして世界をもっと良くする”という旅に出る話みたいです。この本の企画はまだ始まったばかりで、書く段階にはまだいません。 (source:MTV News) Your AD in this spot 
Hey - this page is looking drab - we better get some Boldface names here, pronto. LL COOL J; CEDRIC THE ENTERTAINER; ASHANTI; GRAYDON CARTER; JAY-Z; MARY J. BLIGE; STEVE BARTELS. Of course, they're rendered meaningless and, more important, tend to be off-putting graphically, unless attached to an event: the birthday party for L.A. REID, the head of Def Jam Records, which was held at Cipriani Downtown on Tuesday night. Mr. Reid's wife, ERICA REID, gave the party, dinner for 40 in a private room, where the Bellinis were flowing (at one point, Jay-Z asked the waiter to bring a pitcher to his table) and there was a large after-dinner bash upstairs, where SEAN COMBS, the Broadway actor, showed up. The Reids were looking like a light rum commercial: She was stunning in a white gown, he was dapper in white linen pants and shirt and a pale green sports jacket. But it was MARIAH CAREY, in a snug gray dress, who had the attention of the guys in the room. (DAMON DASH, get your hand off that woman's leg this instant! We all know you're the co-founder of Rocafella, but we're not sure Miss Carey is radiating delight.) Even Ms. Carey, however, could not compete with the L.A. Lakers in the N.B.A. Finals against the Detroit Pistons. Guests asked about the score all evening and at one point a group went to Jay-Z's Mercedes-Benz Maybach to watch the game. (Oops! Instant message from Earthwatch: What a revolting waste of resources! Our Reply: Not at all. That's a $357,000 vehicle. It's cost-efficient that Jay-Z spend every possible moment inside it.)この間行われたL.A. Reidの誕生日パーティーについての記事です☆もちろんマライアも出席していて、そのパーティーにいた男の人たちはマライアにメロメロだったそうです＾＾； (source:The New York Times) |

In addition to making Anthony Kiedis a white, airbrushed suit for the Red Hot Chili Peppers' summer tour, they just received a call that Courtney Love needs a dress in less then 12 hours. They started selling T-shirts at Patricia Field, and their creations flew off the rack. Since then, Gwen Stefani, Aerosmith, Mariah Carey, Britney Spears, Missy Elliot, Liza Minnelli and Lil' Kim all have become fans. Since Heatherette is not sold in stores (they plan to open a shop here next summer) and only custom-designs outfits for celebrities, we asked the boys if they could make The Post an outfit - for under $100, of course. "We're going for a cocktail look with a little Asian-fusion sensibility mixed with a little military action going on - a tougher kind of girl," says Rich.

| 6/6 Super Plans from Superstar Mariah Carey  Pop superstar Mariah Carey is all set to make 2004 her year. Mariah told Extra! about all the magic she’s planning. Carey was looking pretty in pink and radiantly rooming the red carpet when Extra!’s John Kelly caught up with the dazzling diva at the Fresh Air Fund in New York City, an organization that sends inner city kids to camp. “I thought it would be something that I could put my efforts towards, and give the kids hope by saying if I can do this – you know, succeed in what I dreamt of succeeding in – they could do the same thing.” These days, Mariah is recording a new album and an acting gig will have her in London early next year. “London, I’m totally excited about.” Yes, Mariah will be taking the stage in Great Britain, bringing the 1957 Marilyn Monroe classic, “The Prince and the Showgirl” to life. “I don’t want to jinx it. I don’t want to talk about it because I want to get everything straight and together first.”  Talk about together. Mariah recently teamed up with manager Benny Medina who says Mariah is “honing her skills in every department right now. We were up until four o’clock in the morning last night literally in a room of her house just listening to a variety of different mixes of new songs she has just written.” Medina says expect great things of her new album due out this fall, promising more Mariah hits. And for the new album, Mariah spent time on the island of Anguilla writing music that producer Randy Jackson says is pure heat. “It’s a very different record. It’s just more growth from her. There are some amazing vocals. She’s singing her face off on this record.” Look for not one, but two, new exciting new adventures from Mariah Incorporated: a clothes line and series of books. “It’s called Automatic Princess. There’s a whole concept behind it. There’s a deeper message that’s behind it, but we’ll talk about that later.” And of course we’ll be listening. 先日マライアがあのピンクのドレスで参加したチャリティーイベントで報道陣の質問に答えていくつかの情報が出てます。まず、マライアがロンドンでやる劇は来年のはじまりにやるみたいで、“とても楽しみにしてるわ”、と言っていたそうです。マネージャーのBenny Medinaによると、マライアのニューアルバムは今年の秋に発売でたくさんのヒットを出すと約束しています。ニューアルバムは今までとは全然違っていて、もっと成長した感じになっているそうです。そしてあと二つ！Automatic Princessという服のブランドと、本のシリーズもでるみたい！Automatic Princessは去年から話題になっていたけど、やっと出るみたいでよかった＾＾ (source:Extra) Automatic Princess Information  A friend of mine in New York has let me in on some information about Automatic Princess. I am told that the line of Automatic Princess things will include a children's 'Story Book', the deal is still currently being worked on from what I am told but it is to be a children's book based on a 'Biracial' girl.
Not to much of a stretch considering Mariah is biracial and never had anyone besides her siblings that were biracial, hopefully the book goes through and is a huge success. As we all know from reading and hearing the torture that Mariah and her family endured because of her parents race.上のAutomatic Princessと本のニュースと同じ感じなんだけど、この情報によるとその本はAutomatic Princessから出るらしい。本の契約とかはまだ決まっていないけど、バイレイシャル（白人や黒人などの2つの人種から成ること）の女の子についての子供向けの本になるみたい。マライア本人もバイレイシャルで、小さいときから差別的ないじめを受けたりして家族はつらい思いもしてきました。この本にはきっと深い意味がこめられて、すばらしい本になると思います☆ (source:Mariah Info) Mariah working with Mario Winans  Mario "Yellow Man" Winans of Bad Boy Entertainment announced live on BBC's Radio 1 earlier this evening that he is producing music with Mariah for her new album. He didn't elaborate with details, however. Mario has previously produced songs for Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Janet Jackson, Jennifer Lopez, 112, Brian McKnight and many others; and recently scored a solo hit himself with the single "I Don't Wanna Know". 今“I Don't Wanna Know”で話題のMario Winansがラジオで、今マライアのニューアルバムのためにマライアと一緒に曲を作っている、と言ったみたいです。Marioは他にビヨンセ、メアリー J ブライジ、ジャネット・ジャクソンなどの曲もプロデュースしています。 (source:Mariah Daily) "U Make Me Wanna" You can here a clip of "U Make Me Wanna" by Jadakiss featuring Mariah at The Mariah Network.

| 6/5 New Album Info One of MariahInfo's sources reveals to us that Mariah sampled a track from "The New Birth". The song title was revealed to us, but due to people copying Mariah we will not release the name of the track that was sampled. The track will be produced by "Mahogany" along with Mariah. "The New Birth" is a R&B group featuring Melvin and Leslie Wilson, Londee Loren, Bobby Downs, Ann Bogan, and Alan Frye. My research shows that some of their songs are dated back to 1971, and the song that Mariah and Mahogany have sampled is dated 1974 so we are in for a real treat.

Medina acknowledged that Carey's world tour lost money, but says, "We're booking some corporate dates to offset the negative balance."
