MTV Cribs

does anyone watch? i love the show, but was watching mariah carey's episode and she made me sick! did anyone else see it? she kept changing clothes, she even put on lingerie then stripped out of it (covered by a towel

) and got in the bath tub! i will say that her place is nice, but she was driving me up the wall with her props! she goes into the laundry rooms and pulls her dog out of the dryer?

she's off the wall...

but, a lot of other people's homes are tight! i loved missy elliot's house. her dining room, her bedroom and her mother's room was the bomb!

Missy's house was tight... I liked how she just had a random swimming pool in the entryway.

I had never watched Cribs before but I saw it the other night with Mariah. I was couldn't BELIEVE it when she started stripping out of her lingerie under the towel

She came across kind of fake to me, but I think her place was nice. Did you see the chair in her kitchen, though? Hello.....LAZY

Me too! I especially loved her kitchen table. The one where each seat had a separate round table for their food.

Mariah's house was very nice, but the whole half hour of her changing clothes and walking aroung half nekked was a little too much for me to take. She looked absolutely ridiculous on that stairmaster with a mini dress and stillettos on. But, her bathroom was sooo nice!

Greetings Sorors,

I am an avid viewer of Cribs and I watched the one with Mariah and I can truly say that she has issues. She seemed like she was on some sedative medication because, if you noticed her tone of voice never changed. She seemed to mellow and different, (I didn't want to say WEIRD). We must give her props for even conducting that interview.

The best Cribs shows ever were Penny Hardaways house (is beyond like dat), and Jayson Williams house.

Happy Anniversary Sorors!!

That episode was the first one I saw too- I thought the wet towel in the tub was strange and the stylist putting on her shoes for her ... what a lowly job but she probably makes 100,000 for doing it!

She is honest though- how she has the mermaid room for people who aren't good enough to access her living room and upstairs (where her Marilyn piano might get broken by someone). Now everyone knows where they stand in her life-

D level- Mermaid room
C level- The penthouse bar
B level -The living room
A level - Her Master Bedroom

he he!

I have to agree with you on Penny and Jayson's houses. Jayson had so much land that it was crazy. they both really had it going on.

I think I'm just a hopeless New Englander because I found Missy Elliott's house tacky as I don't know what - it just screamed "I JUST GOT A PIECE OF MONEY YESTERDAY." Master P's was in that category too. I like Mariah's living room, but the Morrocan themed room was tacky - I also liked the "M" laid into the marble tile in Mariah's dressing room floor. She definitely seemed like she had just gotten a shot of some sort of "head medicine"

I love watching Cribs. Mariah's house was nice but she was getting on my nerves, too. It was like she was putting on some type of stripper audition or something. She just seemed so self-involved with all of the wardrobe changes. I also couldn't understand how she just couldn't even show the Marily Monroe piano on TV but she could get in the tub in front of everyone. Also, did anyone else notice how shabby her guest bedroom was? She has such a nice house and her guests have to sleep on twin beds with flowered sheets?

I think the houses that I liked the best were Missy's, Penny Hardaway's, Big Boi's (Outkast), and Destiny's Child. Those are the only one's I can think of now.

One last note.........

Have you all ever seen Redman's?

He lives in a sorry townhouse that is so junky! I couldn't believe that he was so messy. I don't care where you live or how much you have, but keep your space clean!

I agree!!! Now, some parts of her house were tight, but, I think she moved in right b4 MTV showed up. I need to see some family portraits or something. I know, she says she's never there, but can't it look a little lived-in?

I liked Babyface's house, it was very classy and very tasteful. I especially liked the double-sided tv in the master bedroom and the shower---oh my.

Mariah, Mariah, Mariah.... nothing left to say about her. But I did love her dressing room. It reminded me of a boutique.

I'm not a New Englander, but I agree with your take.

Money does not buy taste at all.

Master P may be a "bidnessman," but he has absolutely no sense of real taste or style.

i watch CRIBS a lot and hers definitely stood out. she also made ARCHITECHTURAL DIGEST b/c of her house. but, and there's always a but, the color scheme matched her skin. it's like she almost blended in. did anyone else notice that? and i was through when she had all those animals in the kitchen with her. her dog even has a space in the cabinet. since i'm not a pet-person, that just completeley grossed me out

I loved his house. Tasteful yet classy. I have "missed" Mariah's but does not sound like I am missing much. If I want a "striptease" please call Mo Chest for me.

Mariah went from "CLASSY" to AZZZZZZZY

Redman's house is a pure mess with a capital M.

I'm with you on how tasteful and classy his house is, I was really digging that double sided TV and shower, but I couldn't get with the old fashion tub. I just don't like them. But his house was definitely the bomb!!
