I have been a Mariah Carey fan since I was about 14 years old. Now, don’t get me wrong, I do not own any of her albums, and I don’t think I could even name any of her older songs. But I caught the video for “Touch My Body” on the weekend. Wasn’t Mariah Carey the "virgin until I am married" pop love song Diva? It’s not that I mind, but when did she turn into a "flesh for fans" pop star?
I am sure there are a lot of people out there who think the trend of the last 10 years (the physical exploitation of young girl pop stars in order to sell records) is wrong. I just think it is the free-market economy. With porn easily accessible on the internet and strip clubs on every corner, what did you expect? I don’t pay 80 bucks a month for cable to see Nell Carter in a Muumuu belting out church tunes … that’s what radio is for. So enjoy this video for what it is – auditory masturbation!
