It was sponsored by Pepsi-Cola and broke box office records in 13 different countries. It was the top female concert attraction in 1987-1988 and is the biggest tour , by attendance, for a female artist ever, bringing in over 4 million people.

That's when I realised:'We've got to put 'Mary' back in, she's still rolling on the river.'" The most memorable and unusual moment for Turner was in Locarno, Switzerland. The stage for the concert had been built in the center of the town. As Turner recalls," The stage was literally in the middle of the street surrounded by apartment buildings with parents and little kids sitting on their balconies in their nightrobes." Before her concerts at Stockholm Globe Arena in Sweden, Turner got a bad sinus infection and had to cancel her concerts. The arena was soldout and when the concert promoter went on stage to tell the audience, instead of booing the 13,000 people chee... ... Read more

Excerpt: Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer and actress. She made her recording debut in 1990 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, 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 1990s in the United States. and is also considered to be one of the most influential female vocalists in contemporary music. Following her separation from Mottola in 1997, 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. She signed to Virgin Records but was dropped from the label and bought out of her contract the following year after a highly publicized physical and emotional breakdown, as well as the poor reception given to Glitter, her film and soundtrack project. In 2002, Carey signed with Island Records, and after a relatively unsuccessful period, she returned to the top of pop music in 2005. Carey has sold more than 175 million albums, singles and videos worldwide. She was named the best-selling female pop artist of the mil...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=19499 ... Read more
