'''Mariah Carey''' (born March 27,1970 1969) is a singer/songwriter who debuted in 1990 and won the Grammy for Best New Artist that year. She is famous for her wide vocal range and hitting almost inhumanly-high notes in her songs. Initially, she sang ballads and was a rival for [[Whitney Houston]], but after divorcing Tommy Mottola, she began collaborating with rappers, evolving into a more R&B sound.
 
In 2000, ''Billboard'' named her the best selling solo artist of the 90's while the World Music Awards named her the best selling female artist of the millennium.
 
In 2001, she had some sort of breakdown after her movie ''Glitter'' flopped and she took her clothes off on ''TRL''. She was hospitalized for exhaustion and many thought her career to be over, but in 2005 she returned with ''The Emancipation of Mimi'' and has been on top of the charts everfor sincea good part of the 2000s.
 
Many publications proclaim her as the best selling female artist of all time, with worldwide record sales of over 200 million.
 
After feuding with [[Eminem]] over whether they were ever together or not, she settled down and got married to [[Teen Nick|Nick Cannon]]. They divorced in 2016.

* [[Animal Motif]]: She loves to incorporate butterflies in her photoshoots.

* [[Melismatic Vocals]]: Possibly the Queen of this trope who spawned [[Follow the Leader|countless imitators]]...most of them a lot less skilled. [[Paula Abdul]] even said that a surefire way of getting kicked off ''[[American Idol]]'' is to do a Mariah Carey song, since it always involves [[Hopeless Auditionees]] screeching their lungs out thinking it'll impress the judges.
* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: After her divorce.
