..where he could be spending his money, instead he choses to encourage a ghetto fabulous media hoochie mama who hasnt had a hit song in quite a few years.
2. I agree with Robby. It's not fair expenditure of money.
Anyway it's his decision.
I would be frightened of any gift from any middle eastern country. Hopefully mariah will wear it for awhile, then auction it off and give the money to the victims of terrorism spawned by oil money gone awry.
5. Isn't this the same boy(early 20s) who gave Usher diamond encrusted shoes. He's trying to buy famous friends.
6. His money he can spend it how he pleases, and I got to disagree with you robby, but this guy got rich off hungry famine people therefore they are the least of his concern. I on the other hand care a bit more than him for these hungry famine people but the logic is irrational.
7. "I would be frightened of any gift from any middle eastern country." Are you stupid?
Brunei is in southeast Asia.
8. I forgot to mention that I am an AIDS-ridden homo with open pustulating sores all over my body!
9. Im have to say that I disagree, specially with Harrison. You must be missinformed, since the King has everybody in Brunei with a monthly allowance.
..They dont starve in brunei.
..Actually people are quite happy and plentyfull.
Economy is great. If you dont take my word for it, look it up ;) Its funny, reader here can be so hipocritical, You are reading LUXIST! THE BLOG of posh lifestyle and Nonsensical spending.
..so spare me about world hunger.
And finally...
Us americans are the WORST spenders in the world, not the arabs...
just sit down and think of US society and how it throws away money and gets fatter and greedy'er by the day...
and THEN reconsider thoughts about world hunger...
10. I agree with you about the sad waste of money, but Mariah Carey is rolling out the hits. I believe she was nominated for 5 Grammy awards just this year.
11. who are u to tell someone else how they should spend their money and what is wasteful spending. and how do you know if he has or hasn't given money to fight hunger.
12. I would hazzard to say that if any of us had the financial resources to spend large sums of money like these moguls spend, that we would. But of course since we don't, we stand on our virtualistic mountains and condemn those who are able to do so.
...
so human of us.
13. For the haters out there who say that Mariah is a hoochie mama and hasn't had any hits in a few years, do your research!
What about "it's like that" and "we belong together?" And what about her platinum CD Emancipation of Mimi? I agree that she has become more "revealing" and sexual but come on, she is one of the most hardest working artist that I know.
She produces, writes, and involves herself in almost everything that gets put in to her record. Unlike other artists out there nothing is just handed to her. Why do you think she had a breakdown years ago.
.. from exhaustion of overworking.
Do your research before posting lies!
14. I too agree that the money is totally wasted.
It seems acting like a whore gets you everything. No thanks. I'll keep my dignity.
I have nothing. I've been very ill, lost my job, medical coverage you name it. But I still give what I can spare no matter how small the amount.
There is a homeless man in my town who freezes in winter. I buy him hats and gloves. At least I still have a roof over my head.
You know..my glass is still half full thing.
But to see this girl who is a cheap tart who gets paid for her sucky music is very sad.And to accept these things makes her a hooker. I worked my ass off in a decent job until I couldn't do it any longer.
Where's the fairness in that? I'm a young girl. Did I mention that I think our government sucks?
15. Until one knows the truth..
one shouldn't comment about others! As for "Just Me", I hope someone gives you a job with medical coverage, because you need help..
and soon. I'm afraid your "illness" isn't as physical and it is raging hatred and jealousy. She ought to remember: It takes one to know one!
Caio.
16. Just Me Umm are you stupid you?
She excepted a gift from a guy that's trying to court her and you say shes acting like a hooker. You say your a young girl, so your telling me that you don't want a nice guy to come along one day and cherish you. You don't want him to give you nice flowers and gifts with the hopes that you except his hand in marriage?
I don't understand I thought that women wanted a good man that was going to buy them nice things and cherish them. What do you want, a guy to come through like a cave man and drag you off by your hair and make you his B*tch? Also Mariah is a very beautiful very sexy women why can't she to dress that way?
When the majority of the women you see everyday on the streets is dressing 10x times worse. Flying there fat asses around with those tops in a 5 year olds size and shorts or jeans that a toddler could fit. Fat hanging all out of the top and pouring over the way tooo little shorts or jeans.
Atleast Mariah looks GREAT! I don't want to you fat chicks trying to fly around like that too. To me that is disguesting looking with fat hanging out every which way and let loose, trashy, and whorish.
Realailty check people Mariah is non of those things. Your just haters because the women is Beautiful, filty rich and there isn't a man on earth that wouldn't sleep with her unless he's gay and I mean TOTALLY BOTTOM Gay, because I believe must TOP Gays would sleep with her too lol Mariah is on fire and your just haters period.
17.
I agree with Robert. Also, Mariah Carey is THE BEST vocalist ever..
.not one woman in music right now can hit the high notes and then go way down to the low notes like she can..
.she is comparable to Whitney Houston in a lot of peoples' eyes. And I am a young woman also, and I'm not a materialistic girl, but I wouldn't mind if a man gave me a nice gift like that to try to get my attention.
Accepting it doesn't make her a whore or a hooker. She is a very classy woman, and I think she deserves props for putting up with people like "Just me". You're looking for the wrong kind of guy if you think someone shouldn't treat you right.
Anyways, GO MARIAH DO YOUR THING GIRL!!!
18. Okay people, some of you must have very unhappy lives. So, Mariah has a prince sending her beautiful jewels, so the women is fine as those jewels that were sent to her.
Mariah got it in every way and is definitely blessed. Be happy for the woman, she could have bought them herself, but she got a prince to do it and I say, "YOU DO THE DAMN THING GIRLFRIEND, CAUSE I AIN'T MAD!!
!" I love her music, her voice, and the fact that Mariah is a hard working women who has her own.
