The ongoing feud between Mariah Carey and Jennifer Lopez has once again resurfaced, prompting speculation about their rocky relationship and alleged attempts to sabotage each other’s careers.

It all began in 2000 when Mariah was asked about other female singers in the industry and notably responded that she didn’t know Jennifer Lopez. This seemingly innocuous remark sparked rumors of animosity between the two divas, earning Mariah the title of “queen of shade.”

Further fuel was added to the fire during a 2002 interview when Mariah hinted at conflicts with JLo, attributing them to her divorce from Sony Music CEO Tommy Mottola. Mariah revealed that Tommy, angered by their divorce and her departure from Sony, allegedly used his power to undermine her career. This included allegedly giving a song sample Mariah intended to use for her single “Loverboy” to JLo, resulting in a rivalry that extended to other collaborations involving artists like Ashanti.

Instances where JLo has been involved in situations where songs intended for other artists ended up in her hands only add fuel to the speculation.

Mariah, known for her sharp wit and fearless remarks, hasn’t shied away from throwing shade at JLo, suggesting that she may not sing her own songs and hinting at her alleged role in career sabotage.
