mariah-carey-preciousAfter an terrible movie like Glitter many people felt that Mariah Carey need to stay behind the mic and off the screen. But her resilience and belief in her acting ability propelled her to doubt the haters; a self confidence which has lead to Oscar talk for her role in the movie “Precious”. Mariah is a true example of what one can do when they doubt the doubts and preserver. The entertainment industry can be very judgmental and destructive of ones self-confidence if they allow it to happen. So to all aspiring to break into the entertainment industry prepare to preserver.

Mariah Carey

The music industry – along with just about every other industry – is changing rapidly causing record execs to revamp their business models for the 21st century. Record sales aren’t what they were in the past so label heads are exploring new ways to turn a buck. Billboard did a story on Mariah Carey and how her new album might just start a new trend in the music industry. Check out what execs over at Def Jam are doing to capitalize on Mariah’s new album:

As music sales continue to drop like they’re not so hot throughout the industry, Island Def Jam Music Group is jamming on a new business model: integrating brands into artists’ CD booklets.

The first deal, created for the Mariah Carey release Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel on Sept. 15, is a 34-page co-production with Elle magazine that includes lifestyle ads from Elizabeth Arden, Angel Champagne, Carmen Steffens, Le Métier de Beauté and the Bahamas Board of Tourism. Providing the experiment goes well, the label is eyeing bigger brand deals for booklets of CDs by Rihanna, Bon Jovi, Kanye West and other artists.

The mini magazine contains Mariah-centric editorial (“VIP Access to Her Sexy Love Life,” “Amazing Closet,” “Recording Rituals”) and lifestyle advertising along with lyrics and other CD booklet elements. Elle contributed the editorial and designed the layout.

The booklets were created for the first run of U.S. CDs (1 million) and the first 500,000 overseas, said Jeff Straughn, senior VP of strategic marketing for Island Def Jam Music Group. It will also be available in a digital format for those who buy music online. A condensed version of the Mariah mag, sans the 14 pages of CD-specific material, will be inserted into 500,000 subscription copies of Elle’s October issue, which arrives mid-September.

“The idea was really simple thinking: ‘We sell millions of records, so you should advertise with us,’” said Antonio “L.A.” Reid, chairman, Island Def Jam Music Group, a unit of Universal Music Group. “My artists have substantial circulation—when you sell 2 million, 5 million, 8 million, that’s a lot of eyeballs. Most magazines aren’t as successful as those records.”

Carey was “very open” to the concept when Reid showed her a mock-up of the booklet in a magazine format that included brand imagery synonymous with her lifestyle. “I wouldn’t want to do Mariah Carey and Comet abrasive cleaner,” Reid said, laughing. “I wanted things that really reflected her taste.”

Mariah Carey has made an offer on palatial Beverly Hills property Fleur de Lys, built by Texas billionaire David Saperstein. Though the amount of Carey’s bid has not been disclosed, the asking price for the five-acre property is $125 million.

But that buys a lot of perks. If Carey—who according to reports is planning to move to the Los Angeles area with her husban Nick Cannon—buys the property, she’ll become the proud owner of a 15-bedroom, 41,000-square-foot French limestone mansion inspired by the Vaux le Vicomte palace near Paris.
