When news broke in early February that Mariah Carey had booked a return ticket to Las Vegas to mount another residency, it was revealed that she would design the set list as a celebration of her 2005 blockbuster album, The Emancipation of Mimi.
It inspired the title of the exclusive run — The Celebration of Mimi — as well as the timing. Carey took the stage at Park MGM’s Dolby Live to launch the 16-date residency on April 12, 2024, exactly 19 years to the day after the album was released. It’s no surprise Carey wanted to commemorate the 14-track effort, which sold more than 10 million copies worldwide and brought the elusive chanteuse back into familiar territory at the top of the charts. The success of Emancipation of Mimi was fueled by the No. 1 smash “We Belong Together” and punctuated by singles “It’s Like That,” “Shake It Off,” “Get Your Number,” “Don’t Forget About Us,...

Earlier this year, Mariah Carey sent her creative team to search for one significant piece of tour memorabilia. It had been nearly two decades since she last saw it: the glowing “Mimi” sign that lit up the stage during her Adventures of Mimi tour in 2006. Each night, the lighting structure would descend from above the stage as Carey — shimmering in a black, menswear-inspired co-ord — launched into “Shake It Off,” one of the most successful singles from The Emancipation of Mimi, released on April 12, 2005. The sign was a reference to both...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for the January 22 episode of Jeopardy!] The Champions Wildcard competition continued on Jeopardy!, with this week aiming to figure out the five quarterfinalists who will advance to join last week’s four in the semifinals. Economics professor Ron Cheung, contract compliance analyst Daniel Moore, and English professor Holly Hassel faced off in the January 22 game, and it was their wagers in Final Jeopardy that had fans talking after — and that demonstrated how the outcome of the game can all come down to that. Daniel was leading with $4,200 after the first commercial break in the middle of the Jeopardy! round, with Holly in second with $2,600 and Ron in third with $200.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for the July 18 episode of Jeopardy!] In the July 18 edition of Jeopardy!, two-day champ and contract compliance analyst Daniel Moore had to go up against communications manager Chelsea Watt and attorney/DJ David Bederman to add to his winnings of $39,800. However, some clue selection strategies and wagers made it an extremely close game for all the contestants involved. In the first round before break, the first Daily Double was found, which David answered correctly, allowing him to double his score to $2,000. This allowed David to maintain the lead coming out of the break with $5,000 and Daniel closely behind at $4,800. Chelsea had close to half of that with $2,400. The second Daily Double was found in Double Jeopardy, and unfortunately, Chelsea was unable to answer correctly, taking her already low score of $8,600 down by $2,000. The Daily Double was located in the literature category, which the contestants all decided not to answer, despite the great chance that ...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for the July 17 episode of Jeopardy!] Everyone’s talking about Barbenheimer this week, and with the July 17 episode, Jeopardy! got in on (half) the fun. (Who knows what the rest of the week might hold? Both Barbie and Oppenheimer hit theaters on July 21.) Daniel Moore, a contract compliance analyst, returned with a one day total of $25,000, to face off against retired elementary teacher Jerry Powers and librarian Leann Craumer, and during Double Jeopardy, all three were challenged by a category about J. Robert Oppenheimer. Introducing the category (and reading the clues) were two of Oppenheimer’s stars Emily Bluntand Matt Damon (filmed before the actors strike). In fact, Jerry’s first pick for the round was in that category for $1200 and it was a Video Daily Double. He wagered $1000, and Damon read, “Oppenheimer wasn’t sure why he chose this name for a nuclear test site, but ...
