Mariah’s Hollywood Comeback March 14, 2006

Rumor has it that Mariah Carey, who had the most successful album of 2005, wants to extend her musical comeback to the big screen. I must admit, I was one of the few people who watched her first attempt to be a Hollywood star in the sugary-sweet movie, Glitter. My first reacion, upon hearing of this news, was “please tell me it ain’t so.” So, I decided to search google under the keywords: Mariah Carey, New Movie. As it turned out, the rumor is true. Mariah has been cast in an independent film entitled, Tennessee, scheduled to begin shooting this spring in New Mexico and Tennessee. She will play “a waitress who journeys with her two brothers to find their estranged father, and get him to help save their younger brother, who has leukemia.” Further digging revealed that Mariah did another movie, Wise Girls – an indie film with a girl-power attitude. Apparently, she received rave reviews for her performance as a waitress. Do you see a pattern here? Is she being typecast as a waitress?
Anyways, before her new movie hits the theaters, make sure you watch the Mischievious Boy’s interpretation of her hit single, “We Belong Together.” Click here.
emm…i also, went to watch Glitter, at the theater…alone. it’s something i find difficult to tell people as i don’t want the backlash to begin. it’s like a burden, something i carry with me everyday since the day i stepped foot in that theater and saw mariah on the big screen. hoping she could “make it through the rain” and be my “hero”. In retrospect, i guess i just need to “shake it off” and believe that it was mariah’s “vision of love” cause “love takes time” and leave it at that. “Someday”, I just gotta fight back all these “emotions” cause “I don’t wanna cry”, and just hope that mariah will “make it happen”. Perhaps it’s a “fantasy” that she’ll do well on the big screen too…one day…until then, “I’ll be there” for that “one sweet day”.
