Mariah Carey Is a Better Singer than Madonna, Boyfriend James Packer Decrees

She’s “incredible, amazing, a genius,” he gushes

Mariah Carey and Madonna are 2 of the best-selling and highest rated female entertainers of all time, but when talking strictly of their worth as singers, Mimi’s got Queen Madge beat. At least, according to Mariah’s latest beau, billionaire James Packer, aka the richest man in Australia.

We could argue that Packer is blinded by love in his appraisal of Mariah’s singing abilities, but he is convinced that he’s the voice of reason, saying in a new interview cited by the Daily Mail:

“Mariah is just incredible, amazing she really is... She’s a genius. Who else is there? There is Barbra Streisand, Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey. Not Madonna... Those three can sing five octaves...”

This sounds like a Mariah “I don’t know her” typical moment (see the video below if you’re not familiar with one of the most famous shade-throwing instances on the Internet), so no wonder rumor has it that Mariah and Packer feel they’re such a perfect fit that they want to get married ASAP.

All jokes aside, there’s really no reason to compare Madonna and Mariah, whether to declare one better than the other, or for the sheer fun of it. They’re both big entertainers in their own right and they have distinct ways of doing that (i.e. entertaining the fans), which means they’re honing different skill sets.

As long as the fans and the critics enjoy their work and they continue to put out new material, pitting them against each other makes no sense. It’s as useful as comparing apples and oranges.
