Mariah Carey’s Billboard Reign Ends & George Michael Tribute!

October 2nd, 2026
90's NOW

Kelly and Sharon kick off the show by recapping the MTV VMAs including the fabulous tribute to George Michael featuring artists like RAYE, sombr, Teddy Swims, MNEK and Adam Lambert. They also discuss Madonna‘s performance, her many cameos and her collaborations with Sabrina Carpenter and Charli XCX.

You’ll then get your 90’s Playlist Picks of the Week as Kelly chooses MC Hammer and Sharon picks the Smashing Pumpkins. The conversation then takes an uncomfortable turn as they discuss Roseanne Barr‘s recent rant at her former TV son Michael Fishman and the complicated situation between the two actors who spent years playing mother and son on “Roseanne”.

A major Billboard milestone follows as Ella Langley ends Mariah Carey‘s longstanding reign of “All I Want For Christmas Is You” on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Choosin’ Texas.” Kelly and Sharon share their thoughts on the incredible achievement and Kelly, a fellow Aries like Mariah, weighs in on how she thinks Mariah might be feeling about losing the record.

See how you do with Kelly’s Trivia questions and Sharon takes you back to 1998 with your 90’s Rewind. Thanks for listening to 90’s NOW!
