Mariah Carey names which ex she is ‘angry' with… and it's NOT Nick Cannon
Mariah Carey has opened up about her turbulent love life in a candid interview - and revealed which ex makes her blood boil. The music icon, 56, who shares twins with ex-husband Nick Cannon, admitted first spouse Tommy Mottola still makes her 'angry' as she reflected on their five year marriage in a chat with Harper's Bazaar UK. The couple was married from 1993 until 1998 after he discovered her in the late 1980s when he was then head of Columbia Records. Carey married Mottola, now 77, when she was just 23-years-old and he was 20 years her senior. Before their marriage she already was a rising star with the success of her debut namesake album. During their marriage, her career skyrocketed, with the success of her hit songs Hero, Fantasy, All I Want For Christmas Is You, and Always Be My Baby, among others. Carey has previously described her marriage to Mottola as a 'private hell' and claimed the music supremo was controlling - allegations Mottola has vehemently denied. She said this week: 'Sometimes I feel angry about that time, but I think I've made peace with it – in any case, I vowed I'd stop talking about it. 'Humor is my release, and people who know me know that. I'll make little jokes about what happened because otherwise I could make every day a sob story. It's a coping mechanism, but it's in my nature to laugh. She said of her desire to go against Mottola's vision of her as a mainstream pop artist: 'I wanted to do more R&B, more urban music, and any time I would bring that up, it would get shot down. It wasn't that I didn't like the music I was making – I just felt there was more inside me that I wanted to release.' Carey added she felt 'free for the first time' when she released 1997 album Butterfly. 'You might want to picture a child bride,' Carey previously said of her dynamic with Mottola in a 2019 Cosmopolitan interview. 'There was a conscious effort to keep me as this all-American, whatever that means, girl. It was very controlled. There was no freedom for me as a human being. It was almost like being a prisoner,' said Carey. She also spoke to Oprah about her short relationship with Derek Jeter, that served as 'a catalyst' for the end of her first marriage. The couple was married from 1993 until 1998 after he discovered her in the late 1980s when he was then head of Columbia Records - pictured 1997 She welcomed twins with second husband Nick Cannon - who she divorced in 2016 - pictured 2012 When she started her affair with the baseball heartthrob, the songbird was married to Mottola. From 2008 until 2016 she was married to Cannon, with whom she amicably co-parents twins Monroe and Moroccan, 14. Cannon is now a dad of 12 by six different women. After that divorce she had a failed engagement to Australian billionaire James Packer and dated former backup dancer Bryan Tanaka for seven years until 2023. In recent months she has been rumored to be dating Anderson .Paak, 39.

Who Won Netflix's Building The Band and What Was Prize Money? Season 1 Finale Crowns New Superstar Group
Netflix's new music competition series, Building The Band, crowned its first-ever winners in the Season 1 finale released on Wednesday, July 23. Girl group 3Quency, comprising Nori Moore, Wennely Quezada, and Brianna Mazzola, walked away with the title and a USD 500,000 prize. The trio impressed celebrity judges Nicole Scherzinger, Kelly Rowland, and the late Liam Payne in the finale performance with their rendition of Mariah Carey's Always Be My Baby. They beat out finalist group SZN4, the show's only mixed-gender band, which included Donzell Taggart, Aaliyah Rose, Cameron Goode, and Katie Roeder. How did 3Quency win the competition? Judge Nicole Scherzinger praised the group's growth and energy in the finale episode. 'They have proven to us that they are ready,' Scherzinger said. 'A band that has shown so much growth, the band that pulled out all the stops tonight.' 3Quency formed early in the show and remained consistent throughout the season. Their chemistry became a key strength. 'Once we locked in on three, we were still open to anything shifting it, but three just felt so good. Our chemistry felt so strong,' Brianna Mazzola told USA TODAY ahead of the finale. The judges gave the group three important tips that helped them succeed. Scherzinger advised them to maintain eye contact, Payne encouraged them to 'claim your presence on stage,' and Rowland reminded them to 'just breathe.' Nori Moore shared how the group stayed connected after filming. 'We've been in a long-distance relationship,' she said, adding that they stayed in touch through FaceTime movie nights, group trips, and daily chats. While 3Quency won, SZN4 gave a powerful performance of Rag'n'Bone Man's Human, which brought judges and host AJ McLean to tears. Kelly Rowland even predicted they would win, saying mid-episode she thought they had it in the bag. But in the end, 3Quency's consistency and chemistry gave them the edge.

Who won Netflix's 'Building The Band\
Spoiler alert: The following contains details from Episode 10 of "Building the Band." Netflix's experimental music competition show, "Building The Band," has named its first winning group. In the Episode 10 finale, which dropped Wednesday, July 23, girl group 3Quency won the celebrity judges' favor and earned the title of winners for "Building The Band" Season 1. The group, comprising Nori Royale, Wennely Quezada, and Brianna Mazzola, took home the $500,000 prize. "They have proven to us that they are ready. (They are) a band that has shown so much growth, the band that pulled out all the stops tonight," Nicole Scherzinger said. The women edged out fellow finalists SZN4 – Donzell Taggart, Aaliyah Rose, Cameron Goode, and Katie Roeder – the show's only mixed-gender group, which was a gamble in a competition that saw dozens of 20-somethings eager to form girl groups and boy bands. 3Quency's win comes after judges Scherzinger, Kelly Rowland, and the late Liam Payne voted off Iconyx (also known as Soulidified), thus advancing 3Quency and SZN4. The trio's final song was Mariah Carey's "Always Be My Baby." The win proved Rowland wrong in her prediction halfway through the episode that SZN4 would earn the title after they brought host AJ McLean and the judges to tears with their rendition of Rag'n'Bone Man's "Human." The Season 1 groups that were also formed in the sound booths but didn't make it to the finale were Midnight Til Morning, Siren Society, and Sweet Seduction. 'We're amazing dancers, obviously': Liam Payne pokes fun at One Direction on 'Building The Band' Liam Payne draws parallels between Iconyx and One Direction Payne, who came from a boy band background as one-fifth of "The X-Factor" success story One Direction, was the subject of much fangirling from the contestants. After Iconyx failed to make it to the final performance, he was eager to comfort the four-piece boy band backstage. "I'm just going to start here. One Direction came third," Payne said of the record-breaking group's fate on the U.K. music competition show. "I've been stood exactly where you guys are, and I thought it was over. I thought it was done, that was the end of One Direction," he continued. "It was not. But I believe in you guys." "Building The Band," Payne's last TV appearance, was taped in September 2024, just weeks before his death. The 31-year-old singer died Oct. 16 after falling from a third-floor balcony at a Buenos Aires hotel.

'Brace yourselves': Mariah Carey's Type Dangerous video includes 'earth shattering surprise'
Mariah Carey's Type Dangerous music video features an "earth shattering surprise". The director of the eagerly anticipated promo, Joseph Kahn, has told fans of Mimi to "cancel your booty calls Friday night" to make a date with the music video, as he teased something major is about to go down. He posted to X: "Everyone knows when they give me a deadline on a music video, I use every second to refine it til it delivers. Cancel your booty calls Friday night, you're going to busy watching Type Dangerous." Kahn added: "There will be an earth shattering surprise in the @MariahCarey Type Dangerous video. I'm not kidding. Brace yourself lol ... Unguessable, FYI. You'll just have to watch the video." Type Dangerous, released last week, marked Mariah's first solo music in six years. After teasing fans about her 16th studio album with a glamourous sports car teaser on social media, fans were given the first taste of what's to come. Type Dangerous samples legendary hip-hop duo Eric B. and Rakim's 1986 cut Eric B. Is President. In a statement, Mariah said of her return: 'I've been locked up in the studio for quite some time working my behind off on new music, and I'm thrilled for the unveiling of it to my fans, starting with Type Dangerous!' Mariah's new album will be her first since 2018's 'Caution'. The new song came after Anderson .Paak recently revealed he'd been working on new music with Mariah. The 39-year-old singer-and-producer let the news slip while appearing on social media series Track Star - where guests try to identify mystery songs - and he correctly guessed the 56-year-old star's 1996 track Always Be My Baby. Anderson - who was wearing a T-shirt with Mariah's face - said: "This would be Mariah Carey. The Mariah Carey. "I remember in like 5th grade, or something, watching the music videos and having a huge crush. We're working on some music on her new album.'
