Columbia recording artist Mariah Carey, the biggest-selling female artist of the 1990's, is making music history again today as "Heartbreaker," the first single from her forthcoming Rainbow album, becomes her 14th #1 single on the Billboard Hot 100, a feat rivaled only by the Beatles (20) and Elvis Presley (17). With "Heartbreaker" entering the top slot of the charts, Mariah is spending her 59th week at #1, tying only the Beatles for the most weeks at #1 during the 41-year history of the Hot 100. "Heartbreaker" has also hit #1 today on the Billboard R&B chart, becoming the 6th Mariah Carey single to do so.

Mariah Carey has had more #1 singles than any female artist, surpassing both the Supremes (12) and Madonna (11), and more #1's than any active recording artist. With more than 271,000 "Heartbreaker" singles sold, Mariah has also achieved the biggest first-week sales of her career and her biggest one-week singles sales ever.

In fact, Mariah Carey is the only artist to have had a #1 single for every year of the 1990's. The last decade to have an artist hit #1 every single year was the 1920's when Paul Whiteman & his Orchestra hit the top slot each year. (By the end of the 1920's, Whiteman had become a Columbia Records artist.) With the exception of Merry Christmas (from which there was no single release) and #1's (a collection of her first 13 chart-toppers), Mariah has hit #1 with the debut single from every one of her albums.

With the exception of her cover version of the Jackson 5's "I'll Be There," Mariah has cowritten all of her #1's, including "Heartbreaker." With the exceptions of "I Don't Wanna Cry," "Someday," "Love Takes Time," and "Vision Of Love," Mariah has co-produced all of her chart-topping singles.

Mariah's phenomenal worldwide popularity has been reflected in numerous awards and honors. Mariah received 1990 Grammys for Best New Artist and Best Pop Vocal Female ("Vision of Love").The same year, Mariah picked up three Soul Train Awards: Best New Artist, Best Album (Mariah Carey) and Best Single, Female ("Vision of Love").

A perennial favorite at the American Music Awards, Mariah won Favorite Female Artist/R&B in 1992; Favorite Female Artist, Pop/Rock and Favorite Album, Adult Contemporary in 1993; Favorite Female Artist, Pop/Rock in 1995; and Favorite Female Artist, Pop/Rock and Favorite Female Artist, Soul/R&B in 1996.

Mariah picked up her first Billboard Awards in 1991 for Top Adult Contemporary Artist, Top Pop Artist, Top Album Artist, Top Pop Singles Artist, and Tap Pop Singles Artist/Female. In 1996, she won a Billboard Award for Hot 100 Singles Artist of the Year and, with Boyz II Men, a Special Hot 100 Singles Award for "One Sweet Day."

At the 1998 World Music Awards ceremony, Mariah won an award for Best Selling R&B Artist and the Legend Award for World's Best Selling Recording Artist of the 1990's. She won her first World Music Awards - World's Best Selling Pop Artist, World's Best American Recording Artist, and World's Overall Best Performing Artist - in 1995. The following year, she was presented with trophies for World's Best-Selling R&B Female Artist of the Year, World's Best-Selling Overall Recording Female Artist of the Year, World's Best-Selling Pop Artist of the Year, and World's Best-Selling American Female Artist of the Year.

Mariah was presented with the Aretha Franklin Entertainer Award and named Entertainer of the Year at the 1998 Lady Of Soul Awards.

Mariah Carey has sold more than 115 million records worldwide and earned an astounding 84 RIAA gold, platinum, and multi-platinum certifications for her singles, albums, and videos. As the best-selling female artist of the 1990's, she has provided an ongoing soundtrack to the decade and continues to give voice to the emotions of our age.
