13 years ago today, Mariah's controversial soundtrack album 'Glitter' was released. Despite being panned critically, it still managed to sell over 3 Million copies around the world and score a platinum certification in the United States.

Happy birthday exaggeratedly underrated masterpiece

It was released on September 11th, 2001? Don't know why I didn't know this

Never Too Far is one of my all time fave Mimi songs

my favorite Mariah album!

Im not sure about that 3 million copies figure but yes the iconic Glitter was born. Honestly it is iconic among celebrity meltdowns. My whole family knows about the Glitter era because i reference it anytime someones acting crazy

That's when it was released?

The most iconic flop of all time and one of her best albums !

Loveroy should have been #1

Those inflated 3m sales...

yeah I just can't that this song was labeled as a flop just bcs it didn't reach #1... oh well, it's her fault she put the bar so high

So, her album is now older than she is? #eternally12

Such a dope album. I even have it on vinyl haha.

The album that caused Janet's All For You album not to live up to its potential

I think that's why it flopped.

I love this album but I hate Loverboy. I just can't get into that song.

"Loverboy" is an awful mess, but this album does actually have a couple of really great tracks on it though.

LOL @ "controversial soundtrack album".

You shall repent for that blasphemy.

I will not! It's basically a lame Rainbow reject.

Nnnnn well she did say how she was writing songs for both Glitter and Rainbow at the same time.
