It wasn't bad at all. It did bad cause she was in the hospital for mental problems since she's such a workaholic and so dedicated to her fans and music. She values them over her own life I think. If that had not happened or it was realized back when daydream or music box was out at the peak of her popularity (so far) then it would of opened at number one and the press would be great about it.
I also think if Crossroads opened now it wouldn't do as well due to the breakup, smoking, etc. The media builds u up and breaks u down. They are your best friend and your worst nightmare.
I am a TRUE MARIAH AND BRITNEY fan. I may not like everything they have done. But, they are human beings, make mistakes, and should not have to be perfect all the damn time. If we could only mock those media people for their lifes, they are probably so much worse and more corrupt then britney and mariah.
Glitter wasn't as great as say Spider Man, Ten Things I Hate About You, Interview with the Vampire which are some of my favorite movies. But, it was better than a lot of crap that comes out and still gets great reviews, revenues, and publicity. If you haven't seen glitter and like Mariah or just wanna see it, go for it! I don't think you'll be disapointed. The beginning and that little girl oh so cute. And the soundtrack has some of her best vocals and music ever. (Reflections is in my top list of songs ever, great lyrics, music, and vocals that will blow your mind)
I mean, I saw Blair Witch thinking it'd be great by what I heard and what the media said (so scary blah blah blah) and I thought it was worse then being tortured to a slow death (not really but just sayin).
See Glitter, you may like it. I mean, some not the best reviews and peoples opinions of Crossroads (people also dont always say movies just say they hate em and never give them a chance) didnt mean I wouldnt see it. The same goes for Glitter. |
