Biography for Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey (born Mar. 27, 1970 (40 years ago)) is an American R&B singer, songwriter, record producer, and actress. She made her recording debut in 1990 (20 years ago) under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, and became the first recording artist to have her first five singles top the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart. Following her marriage to Mottola in 1993 (17 years ago), a series of hit records established her position as Columbia's highest-selling act. According to Billboard magazine, she was the most successful artist of the 1990 (20 years ago) in the United States.

Following her separation from Mottola in 1997 (13 years ago), Carey introduced elements of hip hop into her album work, to much initial success, but her popularity was in decline when she left Columbia in 2001 (9 years ago), and she was dropped by Virgin Records the following year after a highly publicized physical and emotional breakdown, as well as the poor reception given to Glitter, her movie and soundtrack project. In 2002 (8 years ago), Carey signed with Island Records, and after a relatively unsuccessful period, she returned to the top of music in 2005 (5 years ago).

Carey was named the best-selling female pop artist of the millennium at the 2000 (10 years ago) World Music Awards. She has the most number-one singles for a solo artist in the United States (eighteen; second artist overall behind The Beatles (31 walls)), where, according to the Recording Industry Association of America, she is one of the best-selling female artists and sixteenth overall recording artist. In addition to her commercial accomplishments, Carey has earned five Grammy Awards, and is well-known for her vocal range, power, melismatic style, and use of the whistle register. She is ranked as the best-selling female artist of the U.S. Nielsen Soundscan era (third best-selling artist overall), with sales of over 62.5 million albums in the U.S. and has sold over 200 million albums worldwide.

Life and music career

Childhood and youth
Mariah Carey was born in Huntington, Long Island, New York. She is the third and youngest child of Patricia Carey (née Hickey), a former opera singer and vocal coach of Irish descent, and Alfred Roy Carey, an aeronautical engineer of Afro-Venezuelan descent. Her paternal grandfather, Francisco Nuñez, changed his surname to Carey to better assimilate upon moving to the United States from Venezuela. Carey was named after the song "They Call the Wind Mariah". Carey's parents divorced when she was three years old. While living in Huntington, racist neighbors allegedly poisoned the family dog and set fire to her family's car. After her parents' divorce, Carey had little contact with her father, and her mother worked several jobs to support the family. Carey spent much of her time at home alone and turned to music to occupy herself. She began singing at around the age of three, when her mother began to teach her after Carey imitated her mother practicing Verdi's opera Rigoletto in Italian.

Carey graduated from Harborfields High School in Greenlawn, New York. She was frequently absent because of her work as a demo singer for local recording studios; her classmates consequently gave her the nickname "Mirage." Her work in the Long Island music scene gave her opportunities to work with musicians such as Gavin Christopher and Ben Margulies, with whom she co-wrote material for her demo tape. After moving to New York City, Carey worked part-time jobs to pay the rent, and she completed 500 hours of beauty school. Eventually, she became a backup singer for Puerto Rican freestyle singer Brenda K. Starr.

In 1988 (22 years ago), Carey met Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola at a party, where Starr gave him Carey's demo tape. Mottola played the tape when leaving the party and was impressed. He returned to find Carey, but she had left. Nevertheless, Mottola tracked her down and signed her to a recording contract. This Cinderella-like story became part of the standard publicity surrounding Carey's entrance into the industry.

Early commercial success (1989-1992)
Carey co-wrote the tracks on her 1990 (20 years ago) debut album Mariah Carey, and she has co-written most of her material since. During the recording, she expressed dissatisfaction with the contributions of producers such as Ric Wake and Rhett Lawrence, whom the executives at Columbia had enlisted to help make the album more commercially viable. Backed by a substantial promotional budget, the album reached number one on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart, where it remained for several weeks. It yielded four number-one singles and made Carey a star in the United States, but it was less successful in other countries. Critics rated the album highly, and Carey won Grammys for Best New Artist, and—for her debut single, "Vision of Love"—Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.

Carey conceived Emotions, her second album, as an homage to Motown soul music (see Motown Sound), and she worked with Walter Afanasieff and Clivillés & Cole (from the dance group C&C Music Factory) on the record. It was released soon after her debut album—in late 1991—but was neither critically nor commercially as successful; Rolling Stone described it as "more of the same, with less interesting material...pop-psych love songs played with airless, intimidating expertise." The title track "Emotions" made Carey the only recording act whose first five singles have reached number one on the U.S. Hot 100 chart, although the album's follow-up singles failed to match this feat. Carey had been lobbying to produce her own songs, and beginning with Emotions, she has co-produced most of her material. "I didn't want [Emotions] to be somebody else's vision of me," she said. "There's more of me on this album."

Although Carey performed live occasionally, stage fright prevented her from embarking on a major tour. Her first widely seen appearance was featured on the television show MTV Unplugged in 1992 (18 years ago), and she remarked that she felt her performance that night proved her vocal abilities were not, as some had previously speculated, simulated with studio equipment. Alongside acoustic versions of some of her earlier songs, Carey premiered a cover of The Jackson 5's "I'll Be There" with her back-up singer Trey Lorenz. The duet was released as a single, reached number one in the U.S., and led to a record deal for Lorenz, whose debut album Carey later co-produced. Because of high ratings for the Unplugged television special, the concert's set list was released on the EP MTV Unplugged, which Entertainment Weekly called "the strongest, most genuinely musical record she has ever made...Did this live performance help her take her first steps toward growing up?."

International success (1993-1996)
Carey and Tommy Mottola had become involved romantically during the making of her debut album, and in Jun. 1993 (17 years ago), they were married.

Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds consulted on the album Music Box, which was released later that year and became Carey's most successful worldwide. It yielded her first UK Singles Chart number-one, a cover of Badfinger's "Without You", and the U.S. number-ones "Dreamlover" and "Hero". Billboard magazine proclaimed it "heart-piercing...easily the most elemental of Carey's releases, her vocal eurythmics in natural sync with the songs", but TIME magazine lamented Carey's attempt at a mellower work, "[Music Box] seems perfunctory and almost passionless...Carey could be a pop-soul great; instead she has once again settled for Salieri-like mediocrity." In response to such comments, Carey said, "As soon as you have a big success, a lot of people don't like that. There's nothing I can do about it. All I can do is make music I believe in." Most critics slighted the opening of her subsequent U.S. Music Box Tour.

In late 1994 (16 years ago), after her duet with Luther Vandross on a cover of Lionel Richie and Diana Ross's "Endless Love" became a hit, Carey released the holiday album Merry Christmas. It contained cover material and original compositions such as "All I Want for Christmas Is You," which became Carey's biggest single in Japan and, in subsequent years, emerged as one of her most perennially popular songs on U.S. radio. Critical reception of Merry Christmas was mixed, with Allmusic calling it an "otherwise vanilla set...pretensions to high opera on 'O Holy Night' and a horrid danceclub take on 'Joy to the World'." It became one of the most successful Christmas albums of all time.

In 1995 (15 years ago), Columbia released Carey's fifth album, Daydream, which combined the pop sensibilities of Music Box with downbeat R&B and hip hop influences. A remix of "Fantasy," its first single, featured rapper Ol' Dirty Bastard. Carey said that Columbia reacted negatively to her intentions for the album: "Everybody was like 'What, are you crazy?'. They're very nervous about breaking the formula." It became her biggest-selling album in the U.S., and its singles achieved similar success—"Fantasy" became the second single to debut at number one in the U.S. and topped the Canadian Singles Chart for twelve weeks; "One Sweet Day" (a duet with Boyz II Men) spent a record-holding sixteen weeks at number one in the U.S.; and "Always Be My Baby" (co-produced by Jermaine Dupri) was the most successful record on U.S. radio in 1996 (14 years ago), according to Billboard magazine. Daydream generated career-best reviews for Carey, and publications such as The New York Times named it one of 1995's best albums; the Times wrote that its "best cuts bring pop candy-making to a new peak of textural refinement...Carey's songwriting has taken a leap forward, becoming more relaxed, sexier and less reliant on thudding clichés." The short but profitable Daydream World Tour augmented sales of the album, which received six Grammy Award nominations.

New image (wallpaper) and independence (1997-2000)
Carey and Mottola officially separated in 1997 (13 years ago). Although the public image (wallpaper) of the marriage was a happy one, she said that in reality she had felt trapped by her relationship with Mottola, whom she often described as controlling. They officially announced their separation in 1997 (13 years ago), and their divorce became final the following year. Soon after the separation, Carey hired an independent publicist and a new attorney and manager. She continued to write and produce for other artists during this period, contributing to the debut albums of Allure and 7 Mile through her short-lived imprint Crave Records.

Carey's next album, Butterfly (1997, 13 years ago), yielded the number-one single "Honey," the lyrics and music video for which presented a more overtly sexual image (wallpaper) of her than had been previously seen. She stated that Butterfly marked the point when she attained full creative control over her music. However, she added, "I don't think it's that much of a departure from what I've done in the past...It's not like I went psycho and thought I was going to be a rapper. Personally, this album is about doing whatever the hell I wanted to do." Reviews were generally positive: LAUNCHcast said Butterfly "pushes the envelope," a move its critic thought "may prove disconcerting to more conservative fans" but praised as "a welcome change." The Los Angeles Times wrote, "[Butterfly] is easily the most personal, confessional-sounding record she's ever done...Carey-bashing just might become a thing of the past." The album was a commercial success—although not to the degree of her previous three albums—and "My All" (her thirteenth Hot 100 number-one) gave her the record for the most U.S. number-ones by a female artist.

Toward the turn of the millennium, Carey was developing the movie project Glitter and wrote songs for the movies Men in Black (1997, 13 years ago) and How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000, 10 years ago). During the production of Butterfly, Carey became romantically involved with New York Yankees baseball star Derek Jeter. Their relationship ended in 1998 (12 years ago), with both parties citing media interference as the main reason for the split. The same year, Columbia released the album #1's, a collection of Carey's U.S. number-one singles alongside new material, which she said was a way of rewarding her fans. The song "When You Believe," a duet with Whitney Houston, was recorded for the soundtrack of The Prince of Egypt (1998, 12 years ago) and won an Academy Award. #1's sold above expectations, but a review in NME labeled Carey "a purveyor of saccharine bilge like 'Hero', whose message seems wholesome enough: that if you vacate your mind of all intelligent thought, flutter your eyelashes and wish hard, sweet babies and honey will follow." Also that year, she appeared on the first televised VH1 Divas benefit concert program, although her alleged prima donna behavior had already led many to consider her a diva. By the following year, she had entered a relationship with singer Luis Miguel.

Rainbow, Carey's seventh studio album, was released in 1999 (11 years ago) and comprised more R&B/hip hop–oriented songs, many of them co-created with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. "Heartbreaker" and "Thank God I Found You" (the former featuring Jay-Z, the latter featuring Joe and boy band 98 Degrees) reached number one in the U.S. and the success of the former made Carey the only act to have a number-one single in each year of the 1990 (20 years ago). A cover of Phil Collins's "Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)" went to number one in the UK after Carey re-recorded it with boy band Westlife. Media reception of Rainbow was generally enthusiastic, with the Sunday Herald saying the album "sees her impressively tottering between soul ballads and collaborations with R&B heavyweights like Snoop Doggy Dogg, Usher (4 walls)...It's a polished collection of pop-soul." VIBE magazine expressed similar sentiments, writing, "She pulls out all stops...Rainbow will garner even more adoration" but it became Carey's lowest-selling album up to that point, and there was a recurring criticism that the tracks were too alike. When the double A-side "Crybaby" (featuring Snoop Dogg (5 walls))/"Can't Take That Away (Mariah's Theme)" became her first single to peak outside the U.S. top twenty, Carey accused Sony of under promoting it: "The political situation in my professional career is not positive...I'm getting a lot of negative feedback from certain corporate people," she wrote on her official website.

Personal and professional struggles (2001-2004)
After receiving Billboard's Artist of the Decade Award and the World Music Award for Best-Selling Female Artist of the Millennium, Carey parted from Columbia and signed a contract with EMI's Virgin Records worth a reported US$80 million. She often stated that Columbia had regarded her as a commodity, with her separation from Mottola exacerbating her relations with label executives. Just a few months later, in Jul. 2001 (9 years ago), it was widely reported that Carey had suffered a physical and emotional breakdown. She had left messages on her website complaining of being overworked, and her relationship with Luis Miguel was ending. In an interview the following year, she said, "I was with people who didn't really know me, and I had no personal assistant. I'd be doing interviews all day long, getting two hours of sleep a night, if that." During an appearance on MTV's Total Request Live, Carey handed out popsicles to the audience and began what was later described as a "strip tease". By the month's end, she had checked into a hospital, and her publicist announced that Carey was taking a break from public appearances.

Critics panned Glitter, Carey's much delayed semi-autobiographical film, and it was a box office failure. The accompanying soundtrack album, Glitter, was inspired by the music of the 1980 (30 years ago) and featured collaborations with Rick James and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis; it generated Carey's worst showing on the U.S. chart. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch dismissed it as "an absolute mess that'll go down as an annoying blemish on a career that, while not always critically heralded, was at least nearly consistently successful", while Blender magazine opined, "After years of trading her signature flourishes for a radio-ready purr, Carey's left with almost no presence at all." The lead single, "Loverboy" (featuring Cameo), reached number two on the Hot 100 due to the release of the physical single, but the album's follow-up singles failed to chart; however, a live rendition/medley of the single, "Never Too Far" made its way to #81.

Later in the year, Columbia released the low-charting compilation album Greatest Hits shortly after the failure of Glitter, and in early 2002 (8 years ago), Virgin bought out Carey's contract for $28 million, creating further negative publicity. Carey later said her time at Virgin was "a complete and total stress-fest...I made a total snap decision which was based on money, and I never make decisions based on money. I learned a big lesson from that." Later that year, she signed a contract with Island Records, valued at more than $22.5 million. and launched the record label MonarC. To add further to Carey's emotional burdens, her father, with whom she had little contact since childhood, died of cancer that year.

In 2002 (8 years ago), she performed the American national anthem, in front of an audience at the Super Bowl XXXVI at the Louisiana Superdome, New Orleans, Louisiana. Following a well-received supporting role in the 2002 (8 years ago) movie WiseGirls, Carey released the album Charmbracelet, which she said marked "a new lease on life" for her. Sales of Charmbracelet were moderate, and the quality of Carey's vocals came under severe criticism. The Boston Globe declared the album "the worst of her career, revealing a voice no longer capable of either gravity-defying gymnastics or soft coos", and Rolling Stone commented, "Carey needs bold songs that help her use the power and range for which she is famous. Charmbracelet is like a stream of watercolors that bleed into a puddle of brown." The album's only charting single in America, "Through the Rain", was a failure on pop radio, which had become less open to maturing "diva" stylists such as Celine Dion, or Carey herself in favor of younger singers such as Christina Aguilera (82 walls), who had vocal styles very similar to Carey's.

"I Know What You Want", a 2003 (7 years ago) Busta Rhymes single on which Carey guest starred, fared considerably better and reached the U.S. top five; it was also included a Columbia's release of The Remixes, a compilation of Carey's best remixes and some new tracks. That year, she embarked on the Charmbracelet World Tour and was awarded the Chopard Diamond award for selling over 100 million albums worldwide. She was featured on rapper Jadakiss's 2004 (6 years ago) single "U Make Me Wanna", which reached the top ten on Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop chart.

Return to prominence (2005-present)
Carey's tenth studio album, The Emancipation of Mimi (2005, 5 years ago), contained contributions from producers such as The Neptunes, Kanye West and Carey's longtime collaborator, Jermaine Dupri. Carey said it was "very much like a party record...the process of putting on makeup and getting ready to go out...I wanted to make a record that was reflective of that."; The Emancipation of Mimi became 2005's best-selling album in the U.S., and The Guardian reviewer defined it as "cool, focused and urban [... some of] the first Mariah Carey tunes in years I wouldn't have to be paid to listen to again". The album earned Carey a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary R&B Album, and the single "We Belong Together" won Best Female R&B Vocal Performance and Best R&B Song. "We Belong Together" held the Hot 100's number-one position for fourteen weeks, her longest run at the top as a solo lead artist. Subsequently, the single "Shake It Off" reached number two for a week, making Carey the first female lead vocalist to have simultaneously held the Hot 100's top two positions (While topping the charts in 2002 (8 years ago), Ashanti was the "featured" singer on the #2 single.)

Carey began a concert tour in mid-2006, called The Adventures of Mimi Tour, which was the most successful tour of her career, although some dates had to be canceled. In separate appearances on 106 & Park and TRL Carey announced plans to go back on tour in Nov. or Dec. 2008 (2 years ago). She appeared on the cover of the Mar. 2007 (3 years ago) edition of Playboy magazine on a non-nude photo (wallpaper) session. In early 2007 (3 years ago), she was featured with Bow Wow on the Bone Thugs-n-Harmony single "Lil' L.O.V.E.". Later in the year, Carey received a "recording star" on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Carey performing on stage with her dancers in summer 2008By spring 2007 (3 years ago), she had begun working on her eleventh studio album, E=MC². Asked about the album title and its meaning, Carey said "Einstein’s theory? Physics? Me? Hello!...Of course I’m poking fun." She characterized the project as "Emancipation of Mimi to the second power", saying she was "freer on this album than" any other. Like her previous one, this album mainly concentrates on pop and R&B, but also borrows hip hop, gospel and even reggae ("Cruise Control") elements. Although E=MC² was well received by most critics, some of them criticized it for being "a clone of The Emancipation of Mimi". Bleu Magazine's critic said that the "facsimiles aren't terrible, they're just boring and forgettable at this point". Two weeks before the album's release, on Apr. 2, 2008 (2 years ago), "Touch My Body", her first single from the album, became Carey's eighteenth number-one single on the Hot 100, pushing her past Elvis Presley into second place for the most number-one singles among all artists in the rock era, according to Billboard magazine's revised methodology. Carey is now second only to The Beatles (31 walls) who have twenty number-one singles.

Carey's singles have, collectively, topped the charts for seventy-nine weeks, which places her just behind Presley, who topped the combined charts for eighty weeks. Carey has also had notable success on international charts, though not to the same degree as in the United States. Thus far, she has had two number-one singles in Britain, two in Australia, and six in Canada. Her highest-charting single in Japan peaked at number two.

On Apr. 30, 2008 (2 years ago), Carey married actor Nick Cannon, at Carey's private estate on Windermere Island in the Bahamas. Confirming rumors of the marriage, Carey stated that she felt the pair were "soulmates". Carey was inducted into the Long Island Music Hall of Fame on Oct. 30, 2008 (2 years ago) at the Garden City Hotel in Garden City, New York. Carey performed "Hero" at the Neighborhood Inaugural Ball after Barack Obama was sworn in as the first African-American president in history on Jan. 20, 2009 (last year). Carey was featured on the second single from The-Dream's sophomore album Love vs. Money called "My Love".

In early 2009 (last year), singer-songwriter The-Dream stated that he and Carey had already begun working on her next studio album:

“ I think it’s about just writing an album that includes the focus of all the hits that she’s had. She can’t take a loss; she has to do everything to the T. So it’s basically like we’re trying to make a greatest hits album without using the greatest hits. ”

On May 20, Carey announced on her Twitter page the title of her new album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel.

On Jun. 9, it was announced that the first single will be "Obsessed". The single premiered on Chicago radio station B96 on Jun. 16, 2009 (last year). The song debuted at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100. This marked Carey's fortieth entry on the Hot 100, making her just the eighth woman in the chart's history to make 40 or more appearances. It is also her highest Hot 100 debut since 1998 (12 years ago). The album will be released on Aug. 25, 2009 (last year)..

On Jul. 7th, 2009 (last year), Carey, alongside Trey Lorenz, performed at the memorial for Michael Jackson (25 walls), at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. She performed the Jackson 5 song "I'll Be There", a song which she had previously covered as a single with Lorenz in 1992 (18 years ago).

Acting career
Carey began to take professional acting lessons in 1997 (13 years ago), and in the coming year, she was auditioning for movie roles. She made her debut as an opera singer in the romantic comedy The Bachelor (1999, 11 years ago), starring Chris O'Donnell and Renée Zellweger. CNN referred derisively to her casting as a talentless diva as "letter-perfect...the "can't act" part informs Carey's entire performance".

Carey's first starring role was in Glitter (2001, 9 years ago), in which she played a struggling musician in the 1980 (30 years ago) who breaks into the music industry after meeting a disc jockey (Max Beesley). Though Roger Ebert said "[Carey]'s acting ranges from dutiful flirtatiousness to intense sincerity", most critics panned it: Halliwell's Film Guide called it a "vapid star vehicle for a pop singer with no visible acting ability", and The Village Voice observed: "When [Carey] tries for an emotion — any emotion — she looks as if she's lost her car keys." Glitter was a box office failure, and Carey earned a Razzie Award for her role. She later said that the movie "started out as a concept with substance, but it ended up being geared to 10-year-olds. It lost a lot of grit...I kind of got in over my head."

Carey, Mira Sorvino and Melora Walters co-starred as waitresses at a mobster-operated restaurant in the independent movie WiseGirls (2002, 8 years ago), which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival but went straight to cable in the U.S. Critics commended Carey for her efforts — The Hollywood Reporter predicted, "Those scathing notices for Glitter will be a forgotten memory for the singer once people warm up to Raychel", and Roger Friedman, referring to her as "a Thelma Ritter for the new millennium", said, "Her line delivery is sharp and she manages to get the right laughs". WiseGirls producer Anthony Esposito cast Carey in The Sweet Science (2006, 4 years ago), a movie about an unknown female boxer recruited by a boxing manager, but it never entered production.

Carey was one of several musicians who appeared in the independently produced Damon Dash movies Death of a Dynasty (2003, 7 years ago) and State Property 2 (2005, 5 years ago). Her television work has been limited to a Jan. 2002 (8 years ago) episode of Ally McBeal. Carey had a cameo appearance in Adam Sandler's 2008 (2 years ago) movie You Don't Mess with the Zohan, playing herself.

In 2006 (4 years ago), Carey joined the cast of the indie movie Tennessee (2008, 2 years ago), taking the role of an aspiring singer who flees her controlling husband and joins two brothers on a journey to find their long-lost father. The movie received mixed reviews, but most of them raved about Carey's performance and praised it as "understated and very effective." In 2009 (last year), she appeared as a social worker in Precious, the movie adaptation of the 1996 (14 years ago) novel Push by Sapphire. Variety described her acting as "pitch-perfect".

Lady Gaga Thanks Little Monsters For Supporting 'Telephone' MTV News - 5 days ago
Artist tweets her gratitude as popularity of her video and single soars.By Jocelyn Vena Lady Gaga in "Telephone" Photo: Interscope Lady Gaga fans have been pretty excited about her sensational "Telephone" video, which premiered last week. And after using Twitter and her Web site to tease her little monsters with photos and clues about what they could expect from the nearly 10-minute clip, Gaga went back to the Web to thank fans for their support of the single and clip. " 'Telephone' made history today, little monsters!" Gaga tweeted on Monday. "Thank you for all your support of the video, you are the future, you are the kings and queens." Though it's not clear what exactly she meant by "history," Gaga and "Telephone" collaborator Beyoncé did reach a milestone this week: The single reached #1 on the Billboard Pop Songs chart, becoming both singers' sixth #1 single — a tie with Mariah Carey's record. While on the overseas leg of her Monster Ball tour, Gaga has been tweeting about the video since last week. On Thursday, she tweeted a line from the epic video: "Once you kill a cow, you gotta make a burger." And before the video's debut, she paraphrased another line from the video's dialogue: "R they ready, Honey B?" Ever the promoter of artistic dialogue, the pop star also posted a link to a fan-created "Telephone" poster that features an illustration of Gaga in her crime-scene-tape costume sitting provocatively with Beyoncé in her blue satin military top. "I think the Pop Universe just imploded," Gaga tweeted. "Completely brilliant. Whoever made this: BRAVO." Related Videos All The Buzz On Lady Gaga And Beyonce's 'Telephone' Related Artists Lady Gaga

Oscar Red Carpet Photos - 2010 Academy Awards Pictures About.com Hollywood Movies - 13 days ago
About.com's Guide to Women's Fashion loved Maggie Gyllenhaal's print dress, Amanda Seyfried's style, and Tina Fey's glam look. And I am in no way a fashion expert and thought the stars on the red carpet looked much better overall than in previous years. No bizarre tutus or swan outfits or dresses that could have come from 'adult' clothing stores. This year was all about looking as glamorous as possible. Check out this gallery of photos from the red carpet at the 82nd Academy Awards featuring pictures of Sandra Bullock, George Clooney, Mo'Nique, Jeff Bridges, Sam Worthington, Amanda Seyfried, Ryan Reynolds, Mariah Carey, Zoe Saldana, Gerard Butler, Zac Efron, Miley Cyrus, Taylor Lautner, Kristen Stewart, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jake Gyllenhaal, Elizabeth Banks, Rachel McAdams, Robert Downey Jr, Matt Damon, Meryl Streep, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jeremy Renner, Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Carey Mulligan, Tina Fey, Steve Carell, Lenny Kravitz, Colin Firth, Keanu Reeves, Melanie Griffith, Antonio Banderas, Demi Moore, Jennifer Lopez, Faith Hill, Charlize Theron, Queen Latifah, and many more: 2010 Oscar Red Carpet Photos Also of Interest: 2010 Academy Award Winners and Nominees Spirit Awards Photo Gallery (Photo by Jason Merritt / Getty Images) Follow Hollywood Movies on TwitterOscar Red Carpet Photos - 2010 Academy Awards Pictures originally appeared on About.com Hollywood Movies on Monday, March 8th, 2010 at 17:49:20.Permalink | Comment | Email this

Precious Ladies and Lenny Lead the Way With Carey, Maggie and More at Independent Spirit Awards! PopSugar - 14 days ago
Friday marked the 25th anniversary of the Independent Spirit Awards, which they celebrated by airing it live for the first time. The precursor to today's Oscars is always a looser affair, but the red carpet had it's own impressive ensembles - vote on them with all of Fab and Bella's love it or hate it polls. Lenny Kravitz had a Hollywood up-and-comer, his daughter Zoe, on his arm to support his movie Precious. Carey Mulligan was solo, which is apparently her plan for today as well which dashes our hopes that she'd bring her cute boyfriend Shia LaBeouf. Vera Farmiga was representing the Up In The Air cast in her red dress. The winners were able to have a bit of fun both mingling with friends during the big dinner and on stage where anything goes. Mo'Nique and Gabourey Sidibe both took home statues for their work in Precious, which was the night's big winner - see the full list on Buzz. While Mo'Nique is the favorite for tonight as well, in the press room she said she isn't expecting anything. Ryan Reynolds and Maggie Gyllenhaal carried their champagne on stage, and she was also called up to join her Crazy Heart costar Jeff Bridges when he was named best actor. Colin Farrell embraced Elton John as he entered the awards right as they started. During the show, Jeremy Renner checked out the backstage gifting suites and Elle Lounge. Award season's big finale is tonight and we'll be updating live here and on PopSugar's twitter from the red carpet and press room!
