What's surprising is that Ms CAREY attended (stooped to?!1) Barbra's concert like any unwashed fan (just being a jerk here). Or that she sounds so humble (I know nothing about her).

Mariah Carey calls Hillary Clinton 'President Clinton' as she poses with the politician and her husband Bill Clinton
Photo-op: 'An honor to meet President Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton!' the singer wrote alongside a blushing smiley face
'Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do for our country,' the crooner added.
Reply: By the afternoon, Hillary, 71, had replied to Carey's shout-out with the message: 'The honor is ours; its not every day you meet a queen'
The former Secretary of State finished off her note with a crown emoji.
Carey has supported Hillary for years, but in the past she's told Andy Cohen on an episode of Watch What Happens Live that she doesn't see politics in the job description as far as being an entertainer is concerned.
She says that opening up about her personal political views is 'so hard, because Im just an entertainer.'

Well, I know she was married to MOTOLA, was a notch on Luis Miguel's belt (or he on hers?!1 ) , has a fantastical voice range - so I guess I do know *something* about her. But I wouldn't be able to identify a single one of her songs!1

(43,867 posts)7. Yeah, pretty much like that.
btw, she is noted for her five-octave vocal range, melismatic singing style, and signature use of the whistle register (think Minnie Riperton)
According to Billboard magazine, she was the most successful artist of the 1990s, has spent 79 weeks at the number-one position on Billboard Hot 100, the greatest number for any artist in US chart history. On that same chart, she has accumulated 18 number-one singles, the most for any solo artist (and second after The Beatles)

Let it known that Mariah Carey isn't the only one who appreciates all that Mrs. President has done for our country.
