“The people that raise us can only do what they can with the tools they have. At some point we have to decide that we’re going to finish raising ourselves.” YESSSSSS ✨
Yes. I loved that. Real talk
So good 👏🏽
and for many ppl i wish the tool they would have used is a condom lol
Very true
Period
Whenever MC interviews there's a vulnerability in her which I feel can relate to. It's no wonder she's had such a great career as a writer, artist. She's just a beautiful human ❤
@t facts loved her book
I love Mariah Carey I”m a lamb/Ram but I feel like she keeps herself in a perpetual state of depression. She’s allowed the effects of Hollywood to yt wash her and has removed all trace she’s biracial. Yt woman can get perms to obtain the curly hair look she attributes to her African American lineage. I think if she went to acting class today in 2022 she’d still be guarded. She seems so uptight and uncomfortable. This was tough to watch.
@@ethantownsend458 you’re insane
Exactly why I looked up to her at 10-11 years old her vulnerability!
@@ethantownsend458 i see your point. And i hope she does transcend those dark times in her past.
Honestly one of the best Mariah Carey interviews. She was comfortable and open, also she seemed to feel appreciated and “seen”.
Kerry you have a wonderful way about you that brings out the best of people in all of these interviews
yes, yes! havent seen MC quite this warm and open in an interview; she and Kerry seemed to really connect.
Mariah been a fan of Kerry for a while... I love when queens are friends
I totally agree. I was thinking the same thing.
I agree
Love how publicly open Mariah is since the release of her memoirs, everyone needs to read that book and learn more about her history... what an incredible woman
It's all out there so she can Freely speak, but I've been following her since the 90s and she's *_ALWAYS_* been Open. Die-hard Fans who follow her know this.
@@TheBrownIsland I feel like she was up until a certain point of her career then she became way more guarded but recently she has spoken a lot more open publicly it's like a weight has been lifted now the memoir is out
This hits so deep for me. I always felt alone growing up and Mariah Carey's music carried me through. I would literally not be here today if it wasn't for her music. I could feel that she understood how I felt. She has unknowingly saved so many lives.
Same for me, she's my lifesaver
It makes me smile to know that I'm not alone. She said music raised her and her music raised us! ❤
Same here, her music has been with me through the worst of times, she connects with all of us through music 💛
me too 🌹
I couldn’t have written it better myself.
I love that Mariah even agreed to do this show/interview!!!! Thank you for sharing.
I believe she would say yes either way cause they are Really good friends
She literally raised me through her music growing up and is like a family member in my head!! She will forever be an important part of my life! Love MC Internally!!
This was FANTASTIC! I'm a total lamb and forever a gladiator, so these worlds colliding was a total treat! Kerry is such a natural at interviewing in such an organic way that it was more like a discussion. And Mariah (of course) will FOREVER be an inspiration! ✨👌🏾
Mariah Carey is an incredible human being. Thank you, Kerry!
Mariah looks GORGEOUS 😍 So excited for this new era 🦋
The Queen said "Fans equal home" I love you even more Mariah your music has gotten me through some of the toughest times of my life!
The legend herself!! I swear she doesn’t age. So beautiful and timeless. I just saw a vid of her w her kids….I can’t believe how big they’ve gotten❤
Aging is apart of life.. Mariah is definitely aging at 53 she should accept it .. her face, body, and weigh have changed
@@imback936 If you have nothing positive to offer, offer nothing.
@@musicworldnow365 what is negative about aging? Mariah is human just like anyone else if people stoped idolizing and praising these celebrities they would see that
@@imback936 Are you that blind to the tone of your own words? Reread your comment again, and pay close attention to the end of your comment. Idol worship has nothing to do with this and it was never mentioned nor implied.
@@musicworldnow365 if you didn’t like what I commented no one forced you to reply to me… I could careless about you trying to police some else comment section.. what did I say false all of those things have changed about her she is aging like any other human
Mariah was my best friend in kindergarten at Thomas J Lehey in Huntington, NY. I have very fond memories of her and her cats 🐈 . It was such a shock when I realized who she was. I hadn’t seen her since I was 7 at her birthday party. I had moved to New York City when I was 6 and I came out especially for her party and that was the last time I saw her. I have pictures from that time somewhere.
I was living on the upper east side and going to college and there was a music store on third Avenue between 80th and 81st street and her first album was in the window. On a stand and I remember recognizing her name, because it was so unique. I was old enough that I had forgotten her last name, and it had been so long I didn’t recognize her face at all. I bought her tape and had it up at school with me, so I was already a fan. The next time I was home I was staying at my sister’s house. Love Takes Time came on VH-1 and the second I saw her face moving and her profile I realized immediately who she was, it all came together. You could have knocked me over with a feather, I was completely stunned. I had no idea she was musical or that her mother was an opera singer. I have always loved her music and still do. I miss you and love you Mariah. Such a sweet, kind friend. ❤️🦋
Cool
Beautiful memory. Hopefully you’ll reconnect someday ❤
Mariah gives the best interviews with people she knows. Hopefully she can be this comfortable with other people who interview her, but know she has her past ptsd with media.
This was a wonderful conversation… Kerry did a great job making Mariah feel comfortable this is one of her best interviews
This entire interview gave me chills. Lovely learning about Mariah. Kerry your voice is soo soothing!
Some of Mariah's best interviews are those done with people she considers her friends, like the Naomi Campbell interview. You can really tell she feels comfortable, and that they bring out the best in her! Great interview
Mariah Carey is iconic.
The general public now knows what the Lambily has know for years, that MC put all her life experiences into the music and let it fly. The “Diva” is a persona just for laughs. There will never be another, MC often imitated but never duplicated.
I love hearing that she's Irish and black because I am also. When I was growing up they didn't have mixed singers that I could look up to. I'm just glad I can relate to Mariah, I love to see this beautiful woman thrive.
Mariah is a survivor. I wish her MORE success and happiness. 💕👑
Mariah’s known to live her life in glamour and luxury but i love how she’s so comfortable on sharing her roots. This is something most A list celebrities refuse to talk about and we respect it but can we appreciate how Mariah is setting a good example and an inspiration to anyone who’s just dealing with their own struggles today? She’s a true icon.
Mariah is such a Queen. Her story is heartbreaking, but her ability to create a beautiful life in spite of it all is so inspiring. Such an icon!
I think kerry did a great job..she didnt just throw some questions but she asked them from her heart..❤❤❤
Kerry deserves her own show. This is exemplary of what a host should be like. Funny, charming, grounded, authentic, and relatable.
Everyone should read her book and even go the extra mile to listen to the audible narrated by MC herself. I read her book, and am now listening to its audiobook. What an incredible feeling!
Lambily from #Vietnammm 😄
sounds like she’s confirming that this new project is a Gospel album
Looking back think the charmbracelet era should have been a gospel album
Mariah felt at home in this interview...
Kerry is warm and open...I love love love this interview
I am pleasantly surprised. This is amazing!
Same!! I clicked so fast!
Glad you enjoyed!
I have so much love and respect for Queen Mariah. I love how open and honest she is about her life. She’s not ashamed to speak of the good, the bad or ugly. I found her music in Junior High School when I heard Someday early 90’s I think. Everyone was talking about her high notes and trying to figure out her race. I remember telling my school mates she’s going to be a SUPERSTAR, she’s the next Whitney Houston. 🦋
She's not the next anyone, she's Mariah. Whitney was great (and will always be) and Mariah is also great, this "the next someone" thing is kinda disrespectful with both of them.
@@FinhaBastos I made this reference when I was a CHILD!!!!! Not as an adult. At the time she came to the music scene, everyone compared her voice and style to Whitney Houston. Now as a 40 something woman, I’m very aware she’s her own person, with her own life, goals, etc. Again if you read the comments it clearly referenced a time period. I’m far from being disrespectful to anyone. Perhaps, the music industry at the time was disrespectful for trying to pin the two artists against each other.
Thank you Kerry, this is a true interview. You went deep but with always so much respect to the Legend herself Mariah Carey. Thank you for being so lovely and respectful. And to Mariah, we love you queen, thank you for your music, every song, every lyric, every note that have reached and touched me, Im so grateful. I love you MC!!! 🦋❤
When Mariah said, "Fans equal home to me as well.."
As a lambily, I 🥲🥰
Another best and honestly comfortable interviews of her I've seen by far. Hoping for more views count. The modern world needs to see this! Thank you Ms. Kerry Washington for doing this. Love you always, Mariah! 🦋🌻💛
Hands down one of Mariah's best interviews, she's literally the soundtrack of my life.
Same here
Love Mariah! This is amazing!!
I would love to have a friend like Mariah.Honestly she seems like a great person to have in your circle,just a fabulous person!
It is one of the best interviews Mimi has done because she was evidently so comfortable and interested. It’s gorgeous to witness Mariah looking SO GORGEOUS ❤😊 AND HAPPY!!! We love your amazing interviewing skills and incredible empathy. Please keep shining your LUMINOUS LOVELY light Ms. Washington and Ms. Carey ❤
Queens ...We Love Mariah she's the Greatest
That made me cry what she expressed in regards with the fresh air fund. It’s so important for young people to know there’s more to life than their tough environments. Also i want to thank Kerry & Mariah for being beautiful spirited representations for mixed people. As a child both of these women were women i admired because i felt they looked like me and understood the experience of a mixed person in between worlds. But they never once made it seem frightening they made me feel proud and they demonstrated so much grace and elegance in doing so thank you so much from my inner child and i
🦋 Mariah is wise. She seems so cozy and so down to earth. When she addressed family chaos, relatives and the powerlessness of childhood, it's my experience as well. I'm happy that she's found peace and is loved. Kerry is an excellent interviewer. 💖✨
YESSSS KERRY AND MARIAH HOW ARE WE TO HANDLE THIS AMOUNT OF BEAUTY AND GOD GIFTED TALENT?????!!!!!!😅❤🎉 😍💝🥰
Thank you for interviewing the Queen! And also for crediting her for her songwriting! 🦋
She is my favorite person in the world🦋
I grow up with Mariah Carey music she is truly talented singer and songwriter and icon ❤❤
Watching this from the UK on 31st December & listening to Jane Fonda talk about rowing your own boat - I can't tell you how impactful this has been. Thank you Jane & Kerry.
"Citizen of the World, dahling"...absolutely love Mariah❤...thank you, Kerry, for a wonderful interview
How can you not love MC, such a beautiful soul?
I truly understand where she is coming from I always felt alone in my skin . I am so thankful to God that through it all I am a believer 🙏🏽 and some people and my dogs gave me solice on my lonely days .
I grew up in The Bronx (Kerry) & now live on LI (Mariah) - this interview IS IT for me‼️🎉🥰
Like Kerry, my father's family is from Jamaica and in my grandmother's lineage, it traces back into Ireland as one of my distant great grandmothers was once a slave ended up marrying a white Irishman. My grandmother's complexion was the same as Mariah's. I can definitely identify with the term of Black Irish having ancestral ties. Love me some Mariah and glad to come across this interview for a deep dive into one of my earliest crushes. Her debut album was the first ever CD I bought. She's always going to be a Queen for me.
Wish I could just give her a hug 🤗 her music has comforted me for years, through the worst, ty Mariah 💛
Mariah 💕💕💕Best Singer in history! Queen of Music !
I love how you give your guests time to just talk, without interrupting them! Great talk with Mariah! 🥰
I love Mariahh!! Thank you for doing this Kerry!!and everybody read her Memoir!! Or hear it on Audible it's AMAZING to see how she has integrated her lyrics!
What a prolific songwriter!
This beautiful humans music has literally narrated my life. She is a legend! ❤
we love she love the snow we go at Rockefeller center opening every year see her beautiful time life of her song ❤❤❤Love u Maria big fans
Great interview Kerry, you’re a compassionate, articulate interviewer👏🏽 Can’t believe how poor Mariah was growing up👩🏽 She is definitely making up for it now💵…..love the Sex & the City shoutout “Citizen of the World🌎” Thanks for this👍🏽
I love what the Fresh Air fund is about✨️❤️
Mariah Carey: The woman I tried to imitate vocally all though my teenage hood. Who am I kidding? I'm way past that age and I still do it. It's in interviews like this that you get to see people for who they are moreso... human beings. Thank you Olivia... I mean... Kerry... 😁.
That hair is so gorgeous.
Thank you for bringing the QUEEN, one of the greatest songwriters and vocalists of all time.
Mariah is literally always glowing, i love it!
Favourite interview with the queen mimi love Mariah so much really appreciate this interview fantastic interview you asked Mariah all the right questions made her feel so comfortable you connected really well with her Kerry is such a great interviewer 👍 .
Love love how Mimi stays loving her pets.
Ahaha "People who I used to be related to..." 😂💀
This was truly such a beautiful interview 🥹. Kerry has such a profound way of interviewing/wording things and this felt like such a special and intimate moment. Happy Mariah shared everything she did and I got to see two of my favorite people together 😍🙌
I love her hair like this.
I'm only discovering this show/podcast now, and I appreciate the deceptively simple style. This format is such a fresh approach to talk to people, Kerry is brilliant as an interviewer.
Wasn't expecting to get teary-eyed 🥺 Great interview, your voice is so relaxing and Mariah is incredible.
Legend in the Room!!! What a Stunning Grounded soul Mariah Carey is.
It takes a lot of courage to be as vulnerable as her.
I also have the Book ❤
Help me learn more about her through the music as well I really connected and resonated with her.(Especially Her early 90s songs I’m obsessed).
I love this interview. Kerry is amazing and Mariah is very sincere and real.
Queen 👑 Mariah Carey is a genius that's written and sang all of her 19 No. 1 songs and still counting the most of any artiste that lived. She inspired a lot of singers topping the charts currently worldwide. Keep receiving your flowers while you're alive🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹....you deserve all and many more. We love and appreciate you....a great interview......more wins❤️
My Queens, Kerry and Mariah.
Chills Chills, and more Chills! I love you Mariah. ICON.
Hopefully people would see mariah as more than the diva singer the majority knows her for..people who really dive into her music and lyrics would realise that she's such a beautiful sensitive soul who really went through a lot but still managed to get to the other side.. some of her songs have litteraly saved lives: outside/close my eyes/petales/im free/through the rain/make it happen..........
I absolutely love this. Two amazing inspirational women that I look up to ❤️😍 👏🏼
So good!! It’s incredible seeing Mariah Carey be vulnerable about her journey, she gets the stuck up diva trope all the time.
She just plays with it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
and they both look STUNNING in their ensembles!!!
Mariah, your first album got me out of an abusive marriage. Actually the first 2 albums. I'll never forget where I was when I heard "Visions of Love" for the first time. I walked out with all my stuff in green Hefty Bags.... xoxoxoxoxoxoxooxxoxox Love, Sharon Mickey, Wimberley, Texas... light and love to all. Love Nag Champa
This was so enjoyable to watch. I love their friendship and the ease this had. 😍😍😍
Mariah is just a living LEGEND ! One and only ❤🎉🙏
Let’s go, what a legendary talk! Two queens just chatting it up 🍷🤩
So Gladiator here,It's Handled & That's 💯 percent Exactly,what #KerryWashington did here ... She Handled her 👏 business by doing an interview with my favorite Songtress & Songwriter,the iconic elusive Butterfly 🦋 #MariahCarey.- This interview was nice,Thankyou Mariah for agreeing to do it,I appreciate & enjoyed listening to this interview with two of my favorites,what a pleasant surprise. !!!
Two brilliant and talented women. I really enjoyed this so much. We love you, ladies!!
Awesome interview. That story about her dad giving her flowers after the play and what happened after that - made me sad/pissed but she persevered. The human condition..wow! Thank you so much for sharing.
i am mariah's fan from the philippines and working now and living here in japan.i always bring with me her cd's with me and buy something new of her album here and lately her BOOK❤️i love watching all of her interviews like this❤️ hi mimi...... love you as always❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
kerry this weekend i watched ray again and discovered what a great actress you are..
I found Kerri more inspiring. She said that line about raising yourself and I had to pause and then listen to it again and reflect. She was being nice when she said parents do the best that they can. BUT even if they sucked we have to pick up the slack as adults and finish raising ourselves. Things like proper nutrition to finding healthy relationships with other humans. That was a good line she said.
Thank you for another incredible conversation! I love and admire Mariah’s openness about her life 🦋🦋🦋 I found “We have to finish raising ourselves” such an interesting thought.
I also loved learning about the Gaelic origin of your name Kerry… “Little Dark One” 💞💞💞
