Will you guys PLEASE calm down. Her iTunes sales are fine. She has MINIMUM airplay on Pop. The sales will go back up in the upcoming weeks.
The video still has to make an impact and WILL. It looks like Def Jam may be doing a new edit of the video to make a stronger storyline due to fans obsessive complaints.

The thing is though, other acts can also have minimal pop airplay and they have no trouble selling consistently on iTunes when they release something.

Everyone just give up trying to convince the lambs that this is underperforming... despite the fact that all the signs are obvious and it is clearly not doing great, lambs will always find a reason why it's someone else's fault and the song is actually doing amazingly.

LOL @ the Lady Gaga fans collaborating with the Christina Aguilera fans to expose Mariah's flop. These diva wars are really back biting.

Just because this didn't hit number one, don't need to bring up other divas into this thread. And from what I have read, madgestic was actually routing for this song, or I could be wrong.

76 pop stations playing this according to allaccess........I wonder of the Dream team should be dropped from her producer list ? I think this label needs to leak another single and gage reception like Whitney is doing ....once album hits it will be hard to get another number one.....unless there is a Monster song on it...but I just wonder about Dream they really flopped with My Love and their own album.....they must work cheap?

I'm so TIRED of going through Dream's writing/production credits. He has made MONSTER HITS for many artists. Mary J "Just Fine", Jesse "Leavin", Beyonce "Single Ladies", Rihanna's "Umbrella", J.Holiday "Bed", and Mimi's biggest hit "Touch My F***ing Body!" Mariah should be HONORED to work with this hitmaker. No, Mariah's label is not going to follow Whitney's plan: Release single 3 days before the CD drops. Sorry, we want people to actually be AWARE of the release from the diva. the song is gaining nicely EVERY DAY on ALL formats. What else do you want? Coming off 3 consecutive flops is hard, but she is pulling through very nicely.

I couldn't be happier these days...I can't stop laughing over the sad news.. If you think Madonna's single coming up will fare any better, you're gonna be very disappointed. At least Mariah has Urban and Rhy. What goes around comes around.

well, her last couple singles didn't chart to well overseas either, so she's coming off underperforming singles too.

^ I usually don't like to compare the two because I like them both and they're so different and both well past their prime and lucky to have any hit at all, IMO.

www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2009/07/16/mariah-carey-finishes-off-eminem-in-new-obsessed-video/Mariah Carey Finishes Off Eminem in New “Obsessed” Video7/16/09, 8:38 am EST After leaking briefly earlier this week, Mariah Carey’s video for her Eminem-taunting single “Obsessed” officially premiered on last night’s episode of America’s Got Talent and is up today on Yahoo! and the singer’s own Website (watch it above). As Rock Daily reported when photos from the set emerged, it seems evident that Carey took her beef with the MC in front of the cameras by donning one of Slim Shady’s usual outfits (a grey hoodie). However the singer continues to deny the song is aimed at anyone in particular: “I am NOT at any point in the video playing a specific person,” she Tweeted yesterday. “I’m dressed as a ’stalker’ in 3 different ensembles.”
Carey stars both as herself and as the goateed Eminem double, who takes jobs as a chauffeur and a photo-shoot assistant to get close to the singer. On her Twitter, Carey revealed the photographer is played by Patrick Demarchelier (her hint to readers: “He is mentioned several times in one of my favorite movies The Devil Wears Prada), and that there’s another plot-driven video for “Obsessed” on the way — the second, for the Gucci Mane remix, is being edited and will be out soon, Carey writes. SNL’s Andy Samberg was rumored to have been originally cast in the Eminem role and backed out, leaving Carey to portray the guy who surrounds himself with images of Mariah — and has a close encounter with a bus — herself.
Mariah’s history with Eminem goes back to 2001, when the two reportedly dated briefly as Carey worked on Charmbracelet. In 2005, Em played a portion of alleged voicemail messages Carey left him before performing his song “Puke” at concerts, and tossed references to the star into “Superman” and “When the Music Stops” on The Eminem Show; at later shows he gave a brief tirade about the diva before the song. A year later, he went off on Mariah on his Shade45 satellite radio station. Eminem started the most recent volley between the pair when he pleaded for Carey to return to him and called out her husband Nick Cannon on Relapse’s “Bagpipes From Baghdad. Though she seemed hesitant to respond publicly in the past (her manager Benny Medina has issued statements about Em’s behavior, though), Mariah promptly fired back, with a little help from The-Dream and Tricky Stewart, with “Obsessed,” the first single of Carey’s August 25th album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel.
Though Mariah attempts to put a nail in their dispute with the quite final end of this clip, it’s doubtful Eminem will let their public disagreement drop now — Shady, we await your reply.
