Okay..So..Yeah...on the positive side, I love #Beautiful even more now than when I reviewed it, here- I see some of you canny folk clocked on to the grade change * side-eyeing Mperry93*. But the accompanying video...I'm not sure I can deal with right now. I'm tempted to rip off some of the hilarious commentary occurring on the site chatbox and spin it as my own, but instead I'll leave the video here and let you guys deal with it in whatever way you see fit in the comments.....
...Oh who am I kidding, I have to say something! Don't get me wrong, the video is beautifully (hehehehe) shot and Mariah looks gorgeous, but it all falls down when she tries to work the saucy and seductive angle (yet again).
When will someone have the guts to tell her she's not doing "sexy" right! Heck, even if they can't tell her outright, they could at least give her a few tips on how to improve! It isn't hard, just tone it down and don't over exaggerate every movement! You were already on the right track during the Butterfly era- like in the videos for The Roof and Breakdown. LESS IS MORE DARLING!
Also, while I'm on the subject, there is a time and a place for everything! Don't think I didn't notice you trying to throw some of those moves into the video for Almost Home [See: Here Here]! That was neither the time nor the place! Lord only knows what got left on the cutting room floor.
But I still love you MC! Perhaps even more so for these little idiosyncrasies. Besides, do I really want a truly sexy Mariah? I'm not sure I do. (Wow, this post is going to read like the ramblings of a madman! Not least because I've just talked myself out of my argument!)
Thoughts?
