This is Me...Now flopped harder than Glitter, while the latter can get a #1 annually, so.... 

[Brooklyn Baby]

Why are partners being taken into consideration in the OP 

 

OT: One of the best vocalists and living legends of all time with a song that goes #1 every year or... Jennifer Lopez.

[Sabrina Carpenter]

[Princess Aurora]

Be more specific now please?!

Mariah's any day of the week, omfg her career is what dreams are made of 

 

the ups, the downs, the backlash, the drama, the brilliance… it all amounts to the kind of career so many musicians of so many genres yearn to have. I'm not trying to romanticize her mental health struggles, but I am trying to shine a light  on how best to rise above and reignite a career. Mariah reignited her career in a way that proves that tenacity is something to always strive to possess. and that being said, Mariah's peaks are sky high. as a singer/songwriter myself, if I could ever have one era even somewhat resembling the magic of her self-titled, Daydream, or TEoM, my life would be made. I'd die so happy lol. I know how dramatic it sounds but it's true!

Listen, we need to know who we're ******* 

 

I'm definitely not sharing a bed with Diddy, so…

[John Slayne]

JLo because she married Ben Affleck twice 

[DonnaSpring]

Jennifer Lopez, more fun with acting jobs as well as music 

[rhaenyra]

Uhmm, why is Mariah's net worth lower than J.Lo's? Does Mariah not get much royalties, especially during Christmas season? And her much more successful music career?

 

Anyway, J.Lo seems to have a much easier lifestyle and is able to sleep for a full 8 hours every night. So, I choose her 

[Mordecai]

I'd say JLo bc I lowkey want to be an actor and I do prefer her music, but I wouldn't pick the projects she does so idk

 

Mariah is one of the greats in music though and is a legend and respected in ways that JLo (sadly) isn't, plus she's immortalised with AIWFCIY so

i guess it's because actors are getting paid more, and mariah hasn't toured that much.

 

she still gets her anual BIG check so mariah ofc 

[duybeeGAshantiGA]

At first I thought I'd want to be Mariah since she is a mich bigger legend with the best voice ever with a legacy song rising to the top every year, but then I also want to be healthy and actively in the gym in mu 40s 50s 60s so idk...

[ChooseyLover]

Even JLo would pick to be Mariah I think... No shade to her but imagine having the chance to be the singer (and songwriter!!!) behind songs like Vision of Love or Emotions and choosing not to.

Mariah's net worth numbers from "online sources" haven't been updated in a long time. and previous sources had it at 500 million.

[Trent W]

Mariah by far

 

Her talent will be remembered for several generations 

[Pheromosa]

Are you kidding? JLO is constantly clowned

MARIAH ALL DAY

[Dante Silva]

Why are Gen Z propagating this false myth that J. Lo was ever viewed as a talented and gifted musician or artist when she was new? In fact, she was the original industry plant!

 

To suggest that J. Lo was ever perceived as an originator of any era in music or that she possessed the singing or writing talent of Mariah is certifiably crazy!

 

To put it into perspective, it is like saying there is a danger that Ava Max is more talented than Lady Gaga and might surpass her and be better remembered in decades to come!

[Bey_Rihstan]

Mariah
