Mariah Carey's Fans Already Have Their 'Song Of The Summer' Amid 16th Album Anticipation
Now, with Mariah Carey's 16th studio album "Here For It All" officially set to drop in September, excitement is at an all-time high.
Mariah Carey Drops Teaser For 'Sugar Sweet' In A Tantalizing Dress
The icon took to Instagram wearing a revealing pink dress as she teased her new single, "Sugar Sweet," from her upcoming album "Here For It All." In the playful clip, filmed in a kitchen, Carey is seen baking while the light-hearted track plays in the background.
The snippet includes the catchy hook, "I'mma keep it nice, I'mma keep it neat, I'mma keep it sugar, I'mma keep it sweet," and that was all fans needed to lose it in the comments.
"From only these ten seconds, I'm already positive this is my song of the summer," one declared. Another agreed, exclaiming, "Oh my God! This one's gonna break every chart this summer."
A third gushed, "OMG WE ARE SO BACK. MASTERPIECE ALREADY." Others were just as hyped, writing, "Inject it into my veins" and "We need it nowwwwww!!!!"
The Record Producer Drops Album Date In Sleek All-Black Look
After stealing the weekend spotlight in pink, Carey flipped the vibe on Monday with an all-black outfit to officially announce her long-awaited album, "Here For It All."
In a teaser clip posted to Instagram, the 56-year-old strutted in heels, rocking a fitted black tank and leggings as she flipped her hair, posed for the camera, and gave a taste of her powerful vocals from the title track. The video's caption read, "Here For It All. My new album out 9/26. Pre-order now!"
The announcement sent fans into a frenzy. "ALBUM OF THE YEAR," one person wrote, clearly convinced by just a few seconds of vocals. Another added, "Waited 7 years for this."
"The heels? Oh I'm so ready," one fan gushed, while someone else added, "Thank you for making this Monday not so bleak." One comment summed up the excitement best: "COME ONNNNN Mimi! And we the people are Here For It All!"
Inside The 'All I Want For Christmas Is You' Hitmaker's Upcoming Album
Carey is officially back with her 16th studio album, dropping September 26, and the buzz is already building. Harper's Bazaar reported that the album's lead single, "Type Dangerous," was released last month, accompanied by a high-energy music video.
Co-written and co-produced with Anderson .Paak, the track, since its release, has had several remixes featuring names like Big Sean, Busta Rhymes, DJ Snake, and Luísa Sonza.
Another surprising fact is that the album has been in development for some time. The outlet highlights that Carey first hinted at new music during a "Good Morning America" appearance in November 2023.
Then, in a May 2024 interview with Variety, she confirmed that she had been writing new material and sorting through which songs would make the cut.
How The Songwriter's New Album Stacks Up Against Her Record-Breaking Past
As the mother of two gears up to drop her 16th studio album, it is noteworthy to reflect on the music milestones that helped cement her as one of the best-selling artists of all time.
Wikipedia notes that Carey's most significant commercial success came with her 1993 album "Music Box," which sold over 28 million copies worldwide and earned Diamond certification in the U.S.
It topped charts globally and remains one of the best-selling albums in music history. The only other album to mirror that success came two years later. In 1995, "Daydream" was her second Diamond-certified project, moving 20 million copies worldwide.
Another album that achieved commercial success was "Merry Christmas," which found massive success in Asia, to the extent that Billboard named her the best-selling international artist in Japan.
She maintained the momentum with "Butterfly" (1997) and her greatest hits compilation, "#1's" (1998), both of which were certified five times platinum in the U.S. Although her seventh studio album, "Rainbow" (1999), did not top the U.S. charts, it still went triple Platinum.
Mariah Carey's Album Buzz Grows, But Legal Battle With Brother Still Looms
While Mariah's upcoming album has fans counting down the days, the actress is still facing personal drama behind the scenes.
The Blast highlighted that Mariah is dealing with a lawsuit filed by her brother, Morgan Carey, who claims he was unfairly portrayed in her 2020 memoir, "The Meaning of Mariah Carey."
However, Mariah is not backing down. In April, she stood firm on her stance that every detail in the memoir was truthful. She says her accounts were based not just on her memories, but on stories shared by their mother and others who were familiar with their upbringing.
In a sworn declaration, she described Morgan as heavily involved in Manhattan's nightlife scene and claimed he frequently carried and distributed cocaine during that time.
Between the bold look and the buzz around Mariah Carey's new track, fans are more than ready for the whole album.

CC Sabathia's car breaks down on way to Cooperstown for Baseball Hall of Fame induction
CC Sabathia's 19-year Major League ride toward baseball's Hall of Fame appears to have been a smoother one than the actual drive he made to Cooperstown for this weekend's induction. Heading to Cooperstown with his family for Sunday's festivities, Sabathia's car apparently broke down on the side of the highway, leaving the New York Yankees great and his family temporarily stranded. Sabathia posted a photo (with laughing emojis) on X, formerly Twitter, of himself, his wife Amber and their children on July 24 at 8:22 p.m. Sabathia posted the words: 'Car broke down on the way to Cooperstown. Anyone headed that way?' The road sign in the photo showed Route 17 West in upstate New York. Sabathia later posted at 11:02 p.m. that he and his family made it to Cooperstown: And on Friday, July 25 at 10:47 a.m., Sabathia posted a photo of the Cooperstown grounds where he will be speaking Sunday: This article originally appeared on CC Sabathia car breaks down on way to Cooperstown for Hall of Fame induction

Billionaire film mogul David Geffen sued by estranged husband Donovan Michaels
David Geffen is being sued by his estranged husband. The 82-year-old film producer is accused of treating Donovan Michaels, 32, like a "living social experiment" during the couple's two-year marriage in a lawsuit filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court. Michaels has accused Geffen of breach of contract and alleges that the record executive kicked him out of their New York while he attended Amazon tycoon Jeff Bezos's wedding to Lauren Sanchez in Venice last month and went back on a promise to give him lifelong financial support. The lawsuit alleges that Geffen – who has an estimated net worth of $8.8 billion – used a "toxic mix of seduction, control, promises of love and lavish displays of wealth to entrap" Michaels in a loop of "dependency, submission and humiliation". Patty Glaser, a partner at the law firm representing the film mogul, said: "There was no contract – express, written, oral or implied – that has ever existed. We will be vigorously and righteously defending against this false, pathetic lawsuit." The complaint says that Geffen met Michaels on the dating site in 2016 and paid him $10,000 for sex. The couple married in a private Beverly Hills ceremony in 2023 and the complaint claims that Geffen did not seek a prenuptial agreement. The DreamWorks co-founder filed for divorce in May, citing irreconcilable differences, and the pair had kept details of their separation private until Michaels filed his lawsuit. The dancer – whose real name is David Armstrong – described himself in the lawsuit as a vulnerable young gay black man who had been exploited by a "wealthy, powerful white gay billionaire who believed himself untouchable". Geffen is alleged to have criticised "every aspect of Michaels's appearance" and body hygiene that required him to get "painful" laser and dental treatments. Michaels claims that he was frequently subjected to "back-handed insults and put-downs" about his "past and lack of sophistication". He likened the pair's relationship to the plot of the movie Trading Places and alleges that Geffen treated him like "a living social experiment – a trophy to show off to his wealthy friends, under the guise of benevolence". The lawsuit states: "Geffen told Michaels he loved him, and the two agreed to treat each other as life partners, share all assets equally and that Geffen would support Michaels financially for life. "Michaels gave up his dreams – his modelling career, his independence – to dedicate himself fully to this promise." The suit also alleges that Geffen ordered Michaels to "immediately vacate" the couple's New York home as he partied aboard his $400 million Rising Sun superyacht in the lead-up to the Bezos wedding. It states that Michaels was left homeless as Geffen was "decadently and extravagantly partying and dancing the night away in Venice, Italy with the other 0.0001 per cent of the wealthiest people on the planet". The complaint says: "While Geffen holds himself out to the public as an extraordinarily charitable man whose foundation gives millions and millions of dollars to advocacy and support groups for the homeless and disadvantaged populations, he is simultaneously endeavouring to render Michaels impoverished and homeless."

Bride-to-Be Drops Bridesmaid from Wedding Party After She Says She Wants to Dye Her Hair Pink to Match Her Dress
"I just dropped her ... I'm glad it's a closed chapter," a Reddit user wrote after saying she'd been "considering" asking her friend to step down before the hair suggestion A bride-to-be was not impressed when one of her bridesmaids said she was going to dye her hair pink to match her dress to be "hilarious." In a recent post on Reddit's "Bridezillas" forum, a woman explained how she was considering dropping the friend in question from her wedding party after she'd said she wanted to switch up her look ahead of the bride's special day. "One of my bridesmaids (who I'm already considering asking to step down) has just told me she's temporarily dying her hair pink 'to match the dress!'" the poster initially wrote. "And I'm about to lose it." She added that her friend had "been kind of on a spiral of 'branching out,'" stating that this was "the latest new thing" she was "apparently set on." The Reddit user continued, "To be clear, she's never done an unnatural color (nothing more than blonder or brown or occasionally a red) and this is all very sudden." She insisted she wouldn't normally ask somebody to change the way they looked for her nuptials, but said that this was different. "I typically wouldn't tell someone to change their appearance for my wedding because it's so so so rude but I feel like this is a step past the norm and I'm at a loss," the poster said, adding, "I feel like this is the latest 'pick me' moment in a long string of them." She questioned whether she would be the "bridezilla" for asking her friend not to dye her hair "an unnatural color for the wedding, knowing that this is something she's never once done before?" The woman later edited the post to insist that she wasn't asking her "to change her current style," just "the grand plan she had for her wedding hair that's explicitly FOR the wedding, to be 'hilarious.'" She eventually wrote that she'd bit the bullet and dropped her friend from the wedding party, writing, "I just dropped her. She lost her s---. I'm glad it's a closed chapter." In the comments section, the post got mixed reactions. After the poster responded to one of the reactions with grabs of the text exchange, a commenter insisted, "This type of conversation is NOT for a text message. It's too late but if you do care about her, asking her out for coffee to talk through this might be a better way. It's so easy to misunderstand intent, get angry over text, and escalate. That's what happened here." Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Another person had previously suggested, "If you're considering asking her to step down just [do] it. You'll be happier. The pink hair it seems will become something else and that becomes something else and you're clearly over [it]. I don't blame you. I'd be over it [too] from the sound of it." "The key point is that she is dyeing her hair FOR the wedding (to match the dress), which gives you the opening to say 'I appreciate the thought but honestly I'd rather you don't,'" a different commenter had pointed out, while one insisted, "You did the right thing. Dyeing your hair FOR the wedding is very different from having dyed hair already." Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword
