"Vision Of Love" Make's History

Twenty years ago today, Mariah Carey wrote the first chapter in what has become one of the most exceptional Billboard chart discographies. Carey's debut single, "Vision of Love", entered the Billboard Hot 100, Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Adult Contemporary in the issue dated June 2, 1990. The song would become her first of 18 Hot 100 No. 1s, the most among solo artists in the chart's 52-year history. Among all acts, only the Beatles, with 20, have more No. 1s.
In addition to her historic No. 1 total on the Hot 100, Carey has tallied 15 toppers on Dance/Club Play Songs, 11 on Radio Songs and 10 on R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. Carey's career U.S. album sales stand at 52.6 million, according to Nielsen SoundScan, which began tracking sales data a year after her arrival. In that span, only Garth Brooks (68.4 million) and the Beatles (60.9 million) rank higher. Carey has sent six albums to the Billboard 200 summit, including her best-selling set, 1995's "Daydream" (7.6 million).
"Daydream" yielded the 16-week Hot 100 No. 1 "One Sweet Day", with Boyz II Men, marking the longest reign by any title in the chart's history. The ballad subsequently earned the honor of Billboard's top song of the '90s. Carey's 2005 14-week Hot 100 No. 1 "We Belong Together" likewise became the chart's top title of the 2000s.
Here is a look at some of Mariah Carey's most notable achievements, by the numbers, from her first 20 years of gracing Billboard surveys.

52.6 million
Carey's career U.S. album sales, since SoundScan began tracking sales in 1991, the highest sum among female artists. Celine Dion ranks second among women with sales of 51 million, followed by Shania Twain (33.9 million), Britney Spears (31.5 million) and Reba McEntire (29.3 million).

17.2 million
Carey's career U.S. physical singles sales, according to SoundScan. Her best-selling single is "One Sweet Day", with sales to date of 2,334,000.

13.8 million
Carey's career U.S. digital song sales, according to SoundScan. Her most-downloaded track is "All I Want for Christmas is You", with sales to date of 1,582,000.

136
Total No. 1s that Carey has scored on the following charts: Hot 100 (18), Dance/Club Play Songs (15), Radio Songs (11), Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles Sales, R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, Hot Singles Sales (10 each), Hot Dance Singles Sales (7), Adult Contemporary, Billboard 200, Pop Songs (6 each), Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop, R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, Hot Video Clips (5 each), R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay (4), Hot Dance Airplay, Digital Songs, Top Video Music Sales (3 each), Adult R&B (2), Adult Pop Songs, Dance/Electronic Albums, Digital Albums, Holiday Albums, Holiday Songs, Internet Albums, Top Pop Catalog (1 each).

Record total weeks that Carey has spent perched in the Hot 100's penthouse. The Beatles boast the second-most weeks on top (59), followed by Boyz II Men (50), Usher (46) and Michael Jackson (37).

42
Number of Hot 100 appearances Carey has logged, from "Vision of Love" in 1990 through "Up Out My Face," featuring Nicki Minaj, in March. Among women, Carey stands in sixth place for most chart visits, trailing Aretha Franklin (73), Dionne Warwick (56), Madonna (55), Connie Francis (53) and Brenda Lee (48). From her arrival on June 2, 1990, through the chart week of June 5, 2010, the only acts with more Hot 100 entries are Jay-Z (60), Lil Wayne (56), the "Glee" cast (53), R. Kelly (49) and Ludacris (44).

27
Carey's total Hot 100 top 10s, tied with Janet Jackson and Elton John for fifth-most all-time. Only Madonna (37), the Beatles (34), Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder (28 each) have appeared in the top tier more often. Since June 2, 1990, Carey's top 10 sum leads all acts. Janet Jackson and Madonna are second in that span with 19 top 10s each.

26
Carey's total top five Hot 100 hits; all of her top 10 tracks except for "Obsessed" (No. 7, 2009) have reached the top five, most among all artists dating to her first chart appearance. Janet Jackson is next with 16 top fives in the last 20 years.

18
The number of Hot 100 leaders Carey has earned. Since her first No. 1 in 1990, that's twice as many as the runner-up in that span, Usher. Janet Jackson has seven No. 1s in that stretch, followed by Rihanna (six) and Beyonce, Boyz II Men, Diddy, Ludacris and Madonna (five each).

16
Weeks atop the Hot 100 for Carey and Boyz II Men's 1995-96 No. 1 "One Sweet Day", most in the chart's history. Carey and Boyz II Men each also own the chart's second-longest reign, with "We Belong Together" and "I'll Make Love to You", respectively, among the six songs to lead for 14 weeks each.

Mariah's 20 Years in Music: 1991


At the top of 1991, Mariah's newfound popularity (she was a triple-platinum artist at this point) showed no signs of waning in the slightest. "Someday" went to radio and became a massive hit fast (it was actually the biggest radio hit of the four singles) pushing Mariah Carey to four-times platinum status and to #1 on the Billboard 200 (where it stayed atop the charts for 11 weeks) in the last week of February. A week later, "Someday" reached the summit on the Billboard Hot 100 and stayed for 2 consecutive weeks total.

On February 20, newcomer Mariah joined music's biggest names at the 33rd Grammy Awards at Radio City Music Hall. She left that night with two honors: Best New Artist and Best Female Pop Vocal for "Vision Of Love," which she also performed on the telecast. In a 1992 interview, Mariah had this to say about performing: "What harder audience could you possibly have? And that was like only the fifth live thing I'd ever done, or something, and it's like getting up there and being in front of those people is horrifying.

TWINS?????

Mariah Carey and her husband Nick Cannon are expecting twins, according to a U.S. tabloid report. The R&B superstar has failed to put a stop to rumours she is pregnant with her first child after she was spotted leaving a fertility clinic in Los Angeles last month (May 10).
Carey further fuelled the reports by mysteriously dropping out of Tyler Perry's upcoming movie, For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf. Her representative revealed the decision was based on medical reasons, stating, "She is not doing the movie because her doctor advised her not to. More than that I cannot comment further."
Now the National Enquirer reports the Hero hitmaker is expecting a double bundle of joy. An insider tells the publication, "Mariah is gushing that she's going to have twins. Mariah and Nick both want a big family."
And Carey has already begun to scale back her work commitments to prepare for motherhood, starting with Perry's film. The source adds, "Mariah told her handlers that she's taking an unofficial family time break, and she's keeping her work load light for the rest of the year."
The singer has been dogged by pregnancy reports ever since she wed Cannon two years ago (08) - and last year (09) the couple turned to top designer Kenneth Bordewick to help style a nursery for the new Los Angeles-area home Carey and Cannon bought

IT'S OFFICIAL: MARIAH CAREY IS PREGNANT!!

The is-she or isn't-she speculation is over. RadarOnline.com can exclusively confirm Mariah Carey is pregnant. The 40-year-old pop diva recently dropped out of her next film gig - a role in Tyler Perry's For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf - fueling rumors that she's pregnant.
Now a source close to Mariah and husband Nick Cannon tells RadarOnline.com the couple - who renewed their vows to celebrate their second anniversary in May - are expecting their first child. "They're both very excited and very happy," dished our insider.
When contacted, Mariah's longtime rep Cindi Berger gave RadarOnline.com a rather cryptic comment. "I'm not at liberty to discuss Mariah's personal life at this time," the publicist told RadarOnline.com, a statement that did not outwardly deny the pregnancy.
Said our insider: "Mariah and Nick want to keep the pregnancy quiet as long as they can." Which could explain why Mariah never got out of her Rolls Royce convertible during a road trip with Nick along the Malibu coastline on Saturday. She was hiding a baby bump.
Mariah and Nick got married in 2008, after knowing each other only six weeks, at the songstress' private island in the Bahamas. The two have been inseparable ever since, with this pregnancy now solidifying their rock solid relationship. Speculation has run rampant about the impending baby since Mariah was spotted with Nick outside an Los Angeles medical clinic in May.
Some had suggested the Hero singer had begun hormone enhancement therapy; a possible explanation for a noticeable sudden weight gain. Hormone supplements increase one's chances of pregnancy and are often linked to in-vitro-fertilization.
Mariah and Nick, who have both talked about wanting to start a family, have neither confirmed or denied the pregnancy talk. But both have hinted, previously, they could soon become parents. At the Independent Spirit Awards in March, Mariah told the crowd: "Something else very special is on the way!"
Last week, Nick joked he too had a big announcement to make. "I do want to make a big announcement right here on Daily 10," he said, "my Jack Russell terrier puppy Cha Cha is pregnant again!" However, behind the jokes, is a beautiful silver lining. Industry figures had suggested Mariah's decision to drop out of Perry's movie was a lost opportunity, given she would have worked alongside Whoopi Goldberg and Janet Jackson. Filming was set to start this month. Instead, Mariah is taking on an even greater role: motherhood!
