Mariah Carry













The best-selling female performer of the 1990s, Mariah Carey rose to superstardom on the strength of her stunning five-octave voice; an elastic talent who moved easily from glossy ballads to hip-hop-inspired dance-pop, she earned frequent comparison to rivals Whitney Houston and Celine Dion, but did them both one better by composing all of her own material. Born in Long Island, NY, on March 27, 1970, as the daughter of a former opera singer and vocal coach -- and named after the song "They Call the Wind Mariah" from the popular Lerner and Loewe musical Paint Your Wagon Mariah began singing at the age of four, and was writing her own songs by the time she was attending Oldfield Middle School. She moved to New York City, the day after graduating from high school. Carey moved to New York City at the age of 17 to pursue a music career; there she befriended keyboardist Ben Margulies, with whom she began writing songs. Her big break came as a backing vocalist on a studio session with dance-pop singer Brenda K. Starr, who handed Carey's demo tape to Columbia Records head Tommy Mottola at a party. According to legend, Mottola listened to the tape in his limo while driving home that same evening, and was so immediately struck by Carey's talent that he doubled back to the party to track her down.

Top 10 Bollywood Actresses

10. Sushmita Sen
The only reason the most graceful stunner in Mumbai is so far down the list is that we never really get to see enough of her. She takes the sari to new heights in Main Hoon Na, then disappears from the marquee; she twirls around as the prettiest part of Kisna, and slinks into the shadows....Even as her Zindaggi Rocks readies for release, we just need to see a lot more of her.More images after the break...

Thanks a lot for all of you my dear friends for the Prayers and Supporting words. It has been a very tragic crisis in my life though and I am slowly coming to terms.

I was just shocked and suprised to see the thousands of mails and messages and even calls that I received from you all. I have made numerous friends and well-wishers from this Technology Blog.

It's been almost a month since I have put up any posts. I will shortly start posting but before that I have a small suprise :) I am finally convinced with the new layout at the Beta Site. I will take a day or two to port the layout to this site. Once that's done - I guess there's no stopping for you to get all the Technology News, reviews and musings.

So Strap In!! as we continue the journey forward!!

Thanks,
Jason S
