THE ARTIST
Mariah Carey is an American singer-songwriter, actress and record producer. With more than 200 million albums sold, she is counted among the most successful artists in the history of pop music. However, the imprint of her talent has also influenced other musical genres such as hip hop. Carey contributed to her rise with the song Fantasy, popularising collaborations between singers and rappers, which have become increasingly common in the recording industry today. It was with Fantasy that she became the first woman to debut a single at number one in the US charts.
She was the best-selling singer of the 1990s, with 467 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 and 21 certified hits. Her studio albums from 1990 to the present have always reached the top 5 of the Billboard 200, as have her singles, all of which have entered the highest sales charts.
Her remarkable vocal range has made her one of the most talented and most admired and supported artists by the general public. This led to her being voted the most popular singer ever by TIME magazine in 2014 and the following year she was officially awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Over the course of her career, she has won 5 Grammy Awards, 18 World Music Awards and received 89 Billboard Music Awards nominations, 31 of which she won.
She is known as the Queen of Christmas for her 1994 hit All I Want for Christmas Is You, a song that regularly returns to the top of the charts every year around Christmas time. Thanks to the latter's chart-topping achievement, the artist extended her record of number one singles on the charts to 19. More than any other solo artist.
