WHAT'S EM GOT AGAINST MARIAH?
Pictures ran this week all over the place from the new music video being shot for Mariah Carey.
Brett Ratner, director of the "Rush Hour" movies, is collaborating with Carey on the first video from her new album. The song is called "Obsessed," and it's a witty comeback to Eminem's recent rap on her on his new album.
The Mariah-Eminem saga has turned into a pretty swell feud, with both sides getting in their cracks.
But now Mark Batson, the producer who shepherds Eminem's albums to completion, tells me it's not personal at all.
"He just used her name because it rhymed," Batson told me at the BET Awards last Sunday. "It doesn't mean a thing."
In fact, says Batson, "he" – meaning Eminem – "uses most names in songs because they rhyme."
Well, it's a theory, but I'm not sure I totally believe it. "Bagpipes from Baghdad," the "song" in question on Eminem's "Relapse," doesn't use the word "Mariah" to rhyme with anything, actually. But Eminem does call Mariah the "c word" in the song, and mocks her husband and a former boyfriend.
SO, I DONT KNOW I THINK HE TOOK IT TOO FAR BUT IM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE MUSIC VIDEO ITS GOING TO BE REAL FUNNY.

NEW PRECIOUS POSTER !
NEW POSTER!
Originally titled "Push: Based on a Novel by Sapphire," Lionsgate and the filmmakers smartly changed the title when the Sci-Fi "Push" came out earlier this year. Precious is the nickname the film's title character, a wonderful debut by newcomer Gabourey Sidibe, is given to by her abusive mother, a career altering performance by Mo 'Nique. The film follows 16-year-old Precious as she tries to break the chains that relationship and create a new life for herself. It's an inspiring film with stunning turns from the leads and a fine supporting cast including Mariah Carey, Paula Patton and Lenny Kravitz
"Precious: Based on the novel Push by Sapphire" opens on Nov. 6, but will be heard loudly throughout the 2009 awards season.
Mariah isn't dissing em in the new music video !
Mariah isn't dissing em in the new music video ! "I don't know. Honestly, I don't think so," Cannon told MTV News when asked if the song is about the rapper, who seemingly took a jab at Carey in his song, "Bagpipes From Baghdad." "I don't think that she would take her time," Cannon said. "My wife doesn't beef. She's Mariah Carey. She's not beefin', she's a vegetarian." Cannon said that the song – which will be included on Carey's album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, due this fall – was more inspired by a certain Lindsay Lohan flick than by a need to retaliate against Em. "People keep saying ['Obsessed'] was directed at certain people," Cannon said. "To be completely honest, she did the record 'cause she's a huge fan of this movie 'Mean Girls,' and there's a line in the movie where one of the girls is like, 'Why are you so obsessed with me?' She says that at the beginning of the song, and that's where the concept came from. But you know, art imitates life." Cannon has his own theory about just who he'd like the song to be about, and it's not Eminem. "I always say I thought the record was about me, 'cause I'm obsessed with my wife," he said. "But if somebody's out there and you feel like you might have been obsessed, then the record's about you."

MARIAH THOUGHTS ABOUT MICHEAL JACKSON!
R.I.P Michael Jackson
I am heartbroken. My prayers go out to the Jackson family, and my heart goes out to his children. Let us remember him for his unparalleled contribution to the world of music, his generosity of spirit in his quest to heal the world, and the joy he brought to his millions of devoted fans throughout the world. I feel blessed to have performed with him several times and to call him my friend. No artist will ever take his place. His star will shine forever -- Mariah Carey
