1. In 1997, Mariah Carey was attached to a film called All That Glitters, but she put that on hold to work on greatest-hits collection #1's, which was released in November 1998.
2. Following the release of her 1999 album, Rainbow, Mariah left Columbia Records for Virgin Records, and the new deal granted her more control over the film project. Since All That Glitter's script was set in the 1980s, she began planning a disco-influenced album to fit that vibe.
3. The title of the film, along with that of the accompanying soundtrack, was eventually shortened to Glitter.
