It's not really that awkward. I'm almost positive over 90% of people (if not more) would agree that Mariah is a much better singer than JLo and Gags. Some might say they prefer JLo or Gaga's voice simply because they are fans, but deep down I'm sure they'd still know that Mariah can do all sorts of things with her voice that no one else in modern pop can do.
beyonce,  kelly clarkson, xtina(to a certain extent) and pink are decent though.

It takes two to have a feud and this clearly wasn't one. It's was all in Mariah's head and one-sided. She saw slights that wasn't there. She was paranoid about the whole situation, hiring a PI to investigate Tommy and all. If it wasn't Jennifer it would have been another female artist. Tommy saw an opportunity and cashed in on it. It was a win-win for him.

Britney Spears cannot sing and never could. I put JLo's singing ability on the same level as Taylor Swift. I think Randy is insulting Lady Gaga here.


Oh please. You're always so bitchy and quick to dismiss Mariah. Mariah wasn't just paranoid, Tommy was deliberately trying to sabotage her career. And it was obvious even before the whole song stealing drama, J.Low's whole look and sound was a copy of Mariah post-Butterfly. J.Low may not  have been aware of the song stealing, but that still makes her lame as it shows she has absolutely no involvement in her own career, she's just a puppet horny for success.

It might have seemed like a win-win for Tommy at the time, but in the long run clearly it was not. The suits over at Sony Music Japan were not happy with him for driving away their #1 best-selling artist. J.Low's biggest album didn't even sell as well as Rainbow. And a couple of years later Tommy was history.
Tommy went behind Mariah's back, hired the same hairdresser she used and specifically told him to style JLo's hair like Mariah's.  He was calling up the NY Post and planting stories (the Janet ones).  He somehow got a hold of Glitter months before it was to be released for nefarious reasons.   Mariah's long-time collaborator Cory Rooney jumped ship and produced On The 6, and said things like JLo is the best singer he's ever worked with.  That story about Barbara Walters told her.  And who knows what else.  Yes, I believe all that can make someone paranoid.  I never said she had no reason to against Tommy.  I don't see it being a negative.  It was probably a reason why she hired that PI.  He said he found proof.

Yes, I still say it was a win-win for Tommy.  He got the credit for signing Jlo, but he was already getting heat for his overspending along with Sony falling to #2 worldwide after like a decade. He got a nice severance package from Sony and then turned around and signed some multi-million $ deal with Universal.  Him and Doug Morris are best buds.  I would not be surprised to see Tommy back at Sony with him.

i don't think there is a feud currently ongoing but i do feel that there was something going on. In that notorious clip where mariah talks about beyonce and lopez there is an obvious shift in attitude. it was just a simple, 'i don't know her'. she was clearly feeling some kind of way. she almost didn't even let the man finish his question before blurting that line out lol. plus that interview with jlo on nicks show didn't really say too much. i don't think jennifer ever had a problem with mariah because i don't think mariah really did anything to her. so it isn't surprising to hear her say, 'there wasn't any beef for me'. that part is understandable. it may have been more mariah and it may not have been but for certainly a little battle was happening.

i do like jlo and steven tyler on idol. i like them both way better than ellen and kara. randy is just kind of there but tlyer and lopez really come across great from what i have been seeing.

Is it just me or the part that goes "I love you, I love you, I really really love you" reminisces of the end of "Obsessed"?
Let's not get carried away.
