Join us as we deep dive into this episode to talk about the future star Mariah May from her beginning as a content creator to being involved in one of the best stories to date. we talk about the story that's ALL ABOUT MARIAH

The storyline of "All About Mariah" closely mirrors the plot of "All About Eve," with Mariah May playing the role of the ambitious up-and-comer who gradually usurps the established star, Toni Storm, just as Eve Harrington did with Margo Channing. The parallels between the two stories highlight themes of ambition, manipulation, and the ruthless pursuit of fame.



All About Eve and All About Mariah: A Comparative Analysis

"All About Mariah" is a clear reference to "All About Eve," the classic 1950s film directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz for 20th Century Fox. In the movie, a young Eve Harrington, played by Anne Baxter, cozies up to Bette Davis' aging Margo Channing, only to shoot herself to superstardom. Harrington grows close to Channing, adopts some of her mannerisms, and becomes a fixture in her life. When Harrington achieves success, she leaves the aging Broadway star in the dust as she ascends to the award-winning spotlight.
