Madonna fans vs. Mariah fans is stupid

I dont get why both sets of fans have so much animosity towards each other. Personally, both are great. I prefer Madonna, but Mariah's great as well. Both have qualities that prevail one another. Madonna will never be the singer Mariah is, and Mariah will never be the entertainer and icon that Madonna is. But I cant say either one of them suck.

Why cant both fanbases just get along?

It has gotten hostile. I have to say whoever the Madonna fans are that are posting on Velvetrope (the music industry board) are off the hook. The Velvetrope hates Mariah Carey, but they've been so bombarded by Madonna fans that they've started taking up for Mariah.It just makes Madonna fans look bad.

You should check out the reviews for Madonna's new album on amazon, obviously written by Mariah's fans when you check the history and see the praise for Mariah's work. They're deliberatly writing phony reviews for Madonna's album for whatever reason.

They even made a group called Team Lamb which was intended to sabatoge Madonna's new album.

The following is a direct excerpt from Mariah's "TeamLamb" website:

Lets Help Madonna's Album Flop!!

Welcome to TeamLamb, an organized team of Mariah Carey fans. Our purpose is to keep Mariah, the biggest female musical icon of all time, on top.

Unfortunately, the no-talent slut, Madonna, is still being referred to as the "Queen of Pop," even though her most recent album, American Life, and her Reinvention Tour have really made her the "Queen of Flops." Madonna used to be successful, but that's because she slept her way to the top. Mariah, on the other hand, has sold millions of records based solely on her amazing talents and being a great role model.

Mariah has had sixteen number one singles. Her last two number one singles, "We Belong Together" and "Heartbreaker" have broken worldwide records everywhere. Mariah's most recent Charmbracelet tour was a critically acclaimed smash that played to millions all over the world. Roger Friedman, a well respected music journalist, called the concert one of the greatest he's seen in the past ten years. Mariah is, indeed, the biggest musical sensation since the Beatles.

Within the next couple months, Madonna will try to take away Mariah's crown by releasing "Confessions on a Dance Floor" along with the single, "Hung Up." There seems to be a lot of buzz , but most of it seems generated by Madonna's desperate, pathetic fans. TeamLamb will do everything we can to make this project a flop for Madonna. [...]

How can you even check to identify that the people writing the reviews are Mariah fans? Don't turn an assumption into fact. And, I was quite interested in the Team Lamb thing when I heard about it. It's funny none of the huge Mariah boards like The Palace and FOMM knew what it was until Madonna fans pointed the site out. Which makes me think the whole thing was concoted by a Madonna fan.You don't find it weird that no Team Lamb things were posted at any of the major Mariah boards?

Ummmm, you click on the name of the reviewer to see their profile and 99% of the 1 star reviews happen to have a 5 star review for Mariah's album. Which only means it's Mariah's fans. Unless you want to be dillusional and believe otherwise, but that's your choice.

Well, i never knew that Team Lamb was a Madonna fans's work but i'm not suprised. Both fanbases have their dillusional closed minded fans. But all fanbases do, MJ's, Janet's Britney's etc.

From what i gather the argument between the fanbases is sales. "Mariah sold more!" "No, Madonna sold more." yada yada.... I just tell myself, they both sold LOTS, and put a lid on it.

That's the thing I love about the Prince fanbase. We're here to celebrate his work, not his sales. I feel at home here.

no offence but that could have something to do with him not selling much, if his sales were as high as madonnas, michaels, britneys etc. i think alot more people would be talking about them
