Description

The Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller

The global icon, award-winning singer, songwriter, producer, actress, mother, daughter, sister, storyteller, and artist finally tells the unfiltered story of her life in The Meaning of Mariah Carey


It took me a lifetime to have the courage and the clarity to write my memoir. I want to tell the story of the moments - the ups and downs, the triumphs and traumas, the debacles and the dreams, that contributed to the person I am today. Though there have been countless stories about me throughout my career and very public personal life, it’s been impossible to communicate the complexities and depths of my experience in any single magazine article or a ten-minute television interview. And even then, my words were filtered through someone else’s lens, largely satisfying someone else’s assignment to define me.

This book is composed of my memories, my mishaps, my struggles, my survival and my songs. Unfiltered. I went deep into my childhood and gave the scared little girl inside of me a big voice. I let the abandoned and ambitious adolescent have her say, and the betrayed and triumphant woman I became tell her side.

Writing this memoir was incredibly hard, humbling and healing. My sincere hope is that you are moved to a new understanding, not only about me, but also about the resilience of the human spirit.

Love,
Mariah

    Perhaps this memoir in all its glory is profound and poignant. It humanizes our Mimi with the trials that make her, well incomparable. Her iconic musicality is further appreciated besides the obvious talent but because of hearing her story. It makes me falls deeply intrigued and honors Her More, and understand her songs. Her songs sings her pain & narrates her voyage. Forever lamb! I love you Mariah Carey.

    What an inspirational and phenomenal look into the life of world renowned superstar, Mariah Carey. I loved her before but I have a deep admiration and respect for her after learning of her trials and tribulations and how she overcame them through faith, love and her unending trust in God. I cried from this book, I laughed from this book but most of all- I learned from this book. God bless Mariah Carey!

    Mariah Carey is one of the rare of living legends that seem to be dying off. I’m glad she has gotten a chance to tell her story in “her words” And most importantly that she is getting her flowers while she’s still here. This is such a touching book, that make you cry, laugh, gasp, angry etc. Bravo Mariah!
