Mariah's 20+ year shade still makin' 'em act up. @HonourableVomit is right though. I mean, I like Mariah but let's be realistic, "I don't know her" has no real significant cultural impact outside of her fanbase. Feel free to answer his question without the usual codswallop (if you can). 1 1

LikeATattoo Posted January 11 Posted January 11 The idea that “I don’t know her” isn’t iconic is asinine. It’s one of the GOAT memes??? 1
LatinFreak Posted January 11 Posted January 11 The fact that a 20+ year old meme is getting more attention than Jlo's "big comeback" single, tells us all we need to know... 6

Specter Posted January 12 Posted January 12 This thread started mildly amusing – if we're being generous – but has now crossed over to "is everyone okay? Should I call a specialist?" territory really quickly 1
La Reina Posted January 13 Posted January 13 I'm all for a good read/shade/drag but the way Lambs find it funny when Mariah does it yet have a problem when other artists do it back to her is beyond hypocritical Nonetheless, this is funny

Inverted Posted January 13 Posted January 13 I love J.Lo and even I think the quote and GIF are funny. Maybe the GP isn't familiar with it, but it definitely has presence on the Internet. On 1/5/2024 at 7:00 PM, Julia Fox said: Girl not even her neighbors knew her like she obviously is always pressed when someone says they don’t know her. It doesn’t matter how “A list” she can be and all the money she has, her ego is bigger and she hates everyone that shade her. What are you talking about? That wasn't her neighbor. He's an Indo-Guyanese man (one of my in laws btw) who bought her childhood house in the Bronx that she was visiting. That clip is from her own TV show that she was a producer so clearly she wasn't pressed since she allowed the clip to be included and they got him to sign off to allow clip on TV. FYI - he does not follow American pop culture and does not know who Mariah is either. On 1/5/2024 at 7:38 PM, LikeATattoo said: It’s not one-sided. J.Lo has actually publicly shaded Mariah more than the inverse. If it were one-sided on Mariah’s end, Mariah would be justified because she was the one who was wronged lol. Having said that, I don’t even think that she cares anymore. J.Lo has never publicly said anything. Both of the reactions you referenced (liking and unliking an IG post and supposedly not allowing her manager work with Mariah) are not public. Also, the latter occurred because Benny Medina has worked for Mariah and caused drama for J.Lo in the early 00s. Having a clause in his contract is for her protection. Her long-time assistant, Geetanjali Iyer, did the opposite leaving her to work for Mariah. It's not unreasonable to want your team to be loyal. You also mentioned words during the break of a Wendy interview, but no receipts. As for Mariah being justified, how? It's not Jennifer who selected the Firecracker sample and selected Ja Rule for a duet. Also, she even accused J.Lo of stealing her look (a non-white woman highlighting her hair blond is an original look that Mariah invented?!?!) as early as 2000. See the video below where she's caught trashing J.Lo before an interview. On 1/5/2024 at 7:47 PM, LikeATattoo said: Given J.Lo’s track record, do you really believe that she was wholly unaware of what Mottola was doing? Of course. Even Cory Rooney confirmed that Jennifer barely contributed to the selection or production of the songs handed to her. In fact, she initially told him that she did not want to record some of the songs selected for her (like "Waiting for Tonight," which the original writers tried to shop to her team and she thought was cheesy). Do you really believe that J.Lo knew that Tommy went out of his way to clear a sample Mariah wanted? Do you really believe J.Lo was on those phone calls and even know that Firecracker was? On 1/5/2024 at 10:22 PM, LikeATattoo said: J.Lo fans being losers is a given, so there’s also that. How exactly? J.Lo fans aren't the ones who make threads about Mariah or discuss her constantly. In fact, I've visited Beyond Beautiful (a J.Lo fan forum) and her official base on this website and I don't see Mariah mentioned much. On the other hand, you can be guaranteed to find Mariah stans to constantly discuss J.Lo and even make threads mocking her. Just look at the users in this thread and their post history. On 1/6/2024 at 10:02 AM, LikeATattoo said: The Wendy one actually did make the rounds when it happened, that’s why it’s so shocking that I can’t find a solid receipt. Every time that I search for it, it just comes up with the televised interview and not Wendy’s later comments about what was said during the commercial break. It did happen, though. Wendy was the one who revealed it On 1/8/2024 at 11:13 AM, LikeATattoo said: Wendy is messier than a landfill, but she typically doesn’t lie so brazenly. Maybe during her radio days, but not when she had her show. Wendy is messy primarily because she puts people’s private business on front street, not because she fabricates things. What incentive would Wendy even have to lie on J.Lo like that, and why wasn’t a statement released debunking what Wendy told people if it wasn’t true? 5. That’s the kicker, though. Mariah has never “constantly” talked about J.Lo. She responds with short, curt answers when asked about the feud and that’s really as far as it goes. If you can't find a receipt, how are we supposed to believe it actually happened? I watched that interview when it aired and was on ATRL then. No one ever posted a video clip of Wendy claiming that J.Lo egged her on to bash Mariah. Also, Mariah has constantly talked about J.Lo. Here's a clip from early 2000 (long before Tommy jacked Mariah's ideas and recycled them for J.Lo in 2001) where she accuses J.Lo of stealing her look. Very delusional. J.Lo highlighted her hair as early as 1997 long before gettng a recording contract. And yes, the video is 2000 because it references the Diddy arrest and the Loreal contract, which Mariah seems to be celebrating. Very petty: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUQCpds0emQ 1

Their relationship goes back a quarter-century and the number of times that Mariah has brought Jen up of her own accord can be counted on one hand. It's proof that Mariah has participated in this behavior as early as 2000 and she started behaving this way long before Tommy even explicitly recycled her ideas for J.Lo. It's also shows her recorded on video being petty about J.Lo (celebrating Loreal wanting to fire her because Diddy got arrested and dragged her into jail with her... wtf ) while the mild examples of Jennifer's behavior is from 15+ years later is in reaction to Mariah (and her fans) still perpetuating the issue for decades. As for whether or not J.Lo knew, it's hardly far-fetched. Aside from the Cory Rooney example, even Christina Milian described her day meeting Jennifer during a recording session and, while the interaction was positive (she bought Milian coffee thinking she was an assistant), she said the song was already produced and J.Lo was clueless about who did what and where the song came from. Milian was the one who wrote the demo, Tommy and Cory liked it and asked for it to be for J.Lo's album, Milian agreed, the song was produced and Jennifer flew in on the final day to sing/talk over he verses over the song. If you're going to argue that J.Lo knew that the songs were bought and shopped from others, of course she did. Some were shopped to her face. That's how non-songwriter pop stars get songs. That ideas like the Firecracker sample and a Ja Rule back-and-forth duet were copied from Mariah? Doubt it. Finally, let's not go down that road comparing which side attacks the other more. In my experience on this website, YouTube comments, Twitter, etc., I personally do not find J.Lo fans regularly making comments about Mariah unless it's in reaction to trolling from the other side and in spite for that, but that's purely anecdotal. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt regarding the Wendy commercial break incident (although I am shocked that no one saved it and I've never seen it myself). 31 minutes ago, Touchdown said: She definitely knew because don't forget in her video where they throw the butterfly keyring into the fire, a direct shot at Mariah Nice try. J.Lo is not the CGI animator for this video and butterfly themed jewelry, jeans and tops for girls were popular back then. In fact, even Pandora even sold a very popular butterfly charm back then.

It's her video sweetie, she can approve or disapprove anything in it. She's able to take other peoples songs before they're released so I'm sure she's able to tell a director to take out the butterfly shot in her video. 3

Why would a label puppet have the authority to visit the CGI department during the post-production process and also "take other people's songs before they're released"? Yes, because J.Lo was so powerful that she had access to everyone's demos and tapped their phones to see what samples they were requesting. Embarrassing.

Just stop, you look silly. 1
