Carey, famed for her whistle register, became a global phenomenon in 1990 with the launch of her self-titled debut album Mariah Carey, which has gone platinum and spawned four consecutive number one singles. Her early success was solidified after the release of Emotions (1991), Music Box (1993), and Merry Christmas (1994).

With over 200 million records sold worldwide, the World Music Awards honored her as the best-selling recording artist of the 1990s, not to mention that she was also hailed as the best-selling female artist of the millennium in 2000. The release of Touch My Body (2008), gave her the 18th number-one single in her career, making her the only solo artist to do so.

Carey released her new album Me. I Am Mariah...The Elusive Chanteuse May this year.
