Brenda K Starr rips Mariah Carey

Just caught some of an article where basically Brenda calls Mariah an "Ingrate", basically saying she never got anything in return for making Mariah famous. Even though in the article Brenda does admit that Mariah did send her money ($5,000) once to save her apartment, and also Benny Medina, Mariahs manager does also say Mariah has sent thousands to Brenda constantly whenever she needs it, and has given to Many charities, including founding her own charity "camp Mariah". But I think the funny thing about this whole article is that, ONE, why didnt Brenda make these statements when GLITTER was out and everyone was saying Mariah was a done deal. HMMM Brenda is making these statements while Mariah is enjoying her biggest sales worldwide EVER, her CD sales arent slowing down at all, worlwide her new cd is approaching 10 million in sales and might eclipse a 20 million in sales by the time the year is through. ALSO Brenda makes these statements THE SAME WEEK her new Salsa CD comes out which is on an Indie label, SO, theres your free promotion!

Personally I think there comes a time that U have to take Responsibilty for YOURSELF, and stop blaming others for your misfortune, even though it was BRENDA that gave Mariahs tape to Sony or told Mariah to give it to Sony I really dont think that Brenda is Responsible for Mariahs Career, All Mariah did with Brenda was sing Backup on one record, I mean SHERYL CROW sang Backup for Michael Jackson, I didnt hear her asking for a percent of the BAD record. Brenda grow up, make your own path, plus you have 2 kids, SET AN EXAMPLE, besides the one you are setting now which is.....Cash in on Your Friends and blame them for everything.
