Mariah Carey’s bedazzled plea to “Protect the Dolls” heads to auction for GLAAD
Mariah Carey puts her rhinestoned “Protect the Dolls” jacket on the auction block, channeling August’s Brighton Pride into a fundraising effort for GLAAD’s Transgender Media Program. The hot pink piece, first worn onstage, carries a direct nod to a phrase rooted in 1980s ballroom vernacular.
Fashion designer Conner Ives reintroduced the motto at London Fashion Week 2025. GLAAD begins bidding Dec. 8, with proceeds aimed at supporting authentic trans representation in media.
Mariah Carey’s pre-fame cassette from a holiday party lands at auction
A rare 1988 Mariah Carey demo tape surfaces from Arthur Baker’s archive, landing on the Wax Poetics auction block. Originally handed to Baker at a holiday party, the tape contains both covers and original songs recorded with Brenda K. Starr.
Baker recalls inserting the cassette and immediately likening Carey to “Madonna meets Whitney.” The release includes authentication, archival notes, and context, positioning it as a snapshot of Carey’s pre-fame genesis.
Mariah Carey Hits MusiCares Milestone at 56—Still Younger Than Sting Was
Mariah Carey will be honored as the 2026 MusiCares Person of the Year at age 56, making her the youngest recipient since Sting in 2004. The gala unfolds Jan. 30, just ahead of the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles.
Alongside five Grammys and 19 Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hits, Carey’s résumé includes founding youth programs and aiding communities post-Hurricane Katrina and during COVID-19. She recently added a VMA win for "Type Dangerous" and a Global Impact Award to her accolades.
Mariah Carey dodges Eminem drama, calls 8 Mile rejection “just a rap lyric”
Mariah Carey faces speculation around her longstanding tension with Eminem during a “Plead the Fifth” appearance with Andy Cohen. When asked if things soured after she declined to play Eminem’s mother in 8 Mile, she admits, “There is truth to that,” but swiftly sidesteps clarity, brushing it off as just “a rap lyric.”
Producer Damion Young revives rumors of a proposed casting and a brief romance, which Carey dismisses as limited interactions. In 2009, she seemingly parodies Eminem in her “Obsessed” video.
Mariah Carey trades glitter for gospel on comeback album 'Here For It All'
Mariah Carey returns after a seven-year hiatus with ‘Here For It All,’ her 16th studio album, and features collaborations including Anderson .Paak on “Play This Song” and “Type Dangerous.” Interviews with figures like Julia Michaels and Snoop Dogg punctuate reflections on her catalogue and cultural influence.
Tracks like “Nothing Is Impossible” tip into emotional terrain while “Jesus, I Do” with the Clark Sisters veers into gospel. Dramatic, self-referential, and tightly produced, the album nudges her legacy into 2025 without apology.
