And now, for a look back at 2001's most inspiring movie about the struggles of fame and family. It's all about finding your inner glitter. So go on and get your glitter back, girl. Let's look at the beauty in Mariah's oeuvre.

2.When young Billie is sent away from her mom but there's this awesome kitten.
3.When Billie is a young woman and is trying to make it with her dance-pop group girlfriends, one of whom is DA BRAT. So that's rad.

14.When Dice becomes an asshole, but Billie stays humble.
15.When the scary music rival guy threatens Billie because Dice owes him money. And Billie keeps her cool.
16.When Dice turns into a sad, smoking, Yamaha-playing man without Billie. Because the glitter in him was hurt.
17.When Billie goes to Dice's house to reconcile, but he's not home, and she sees the music he's composed for her and she kisses it.
18.When Dice gets shot. This is "WTF glitter."
