瑪麗亞凱莉的新專輯發行錯過了葛萊美獎的報名期限，也錯過了和惠妮休斯頓正面交鋒的機會。 Mariah Carey's new album to debut too late for Grammy consideration... or battle with Whitney Houston 瑪麗亞凱莉不再需要葛萊美獎的光環。 Mariah Carey is refusing to be pushed around by the Grammys anymore. 這位歌姬曾被提名21項葛萊美獎，但歌唱生涯快二十年來，只拿過其中的五座。 The songbird, who has won a mere five awards out of 21 nominations since 1991, is officially taking herself out of the running this year. She'll release her album "Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel" on Sept. 29, missing the Grammy cutoff date by just one day. 一位音樂人說「瑪麗亞和葛萊美擦肩而過太多次了，老是用熱臉貼葛萊美的冷屁股... 她根本不需要那些獎，她的歌唱生涯已經非常成功了。」 "Mariah's been shafted so many times before that it's like a big 'Kiss my butt' to the Grammy folks," says a music industry insider. "She doesn't need the awards, because her career is already so successful." 瑪麗亞的確不需要這些獎項就能暢銷她的專輯。可知道這張新專輯已經有首讓音樂界熱烈討論的重量級單曲「Obsessed」了！ The diva definitely doesn't need trophies to sell her album: "Memoirs" has already spawned the hit single, "Obsessed" and has generated heavy industry buzz. 雖然瑪麗亞最近剛延後了幾場演出，但據知她正在努力多為新專輯增加幾首好歌，希望他們有個完美的成果。 Although the singer just rescheduled a series of promotional appearances on programs like the "Today" show and "VH1 Storytellers," the insider says Carey is just busy adding more songs to her album, wanting the end result to be perfect. In addition to her CD, the singer is drawing rave reviews for her performance as a Harlem-based social worker in the indie flick "Precious." The Lee Daniels-directed movie debuted earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival. Meanwhile, fans hoping for a Battle of the Divas will be disappointed to learn that Whitney Houston's new CD will be released nearly a month earlier than Mariah's; the icon's first album in seven years is now set to hit shelves on Sept. 1. 這段不太友善...自己看...Orz... Whit should be thankful she's avoiding a showdown with Mimi. Her album's first single, "I Look to You," received a lukewarm reception on pop radio, finally debuting on Billboard's Hot 100 last week at No. 74. Mariah, meanwhile, blasted onto that chart at No. 11 with "Obsessed." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 118.161.71.73
