Mariah Beats The King
Filed under: Madonna > Music Minute > Mariah Carey
You read it on PerezHilton.com first!
As we told you days ago….
Mariah Carey has broken records with her newest single, Touch My Body, which has just gone to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart.
The single marks Mooriah's 18th hit song to reach #1, surpassing Elvis Presley's previous record of 17 hits at #1. The only other performers she has left to beat out are the current record holders, The Beatles, with 20 hits at #1.
On the Billboard Hot Digital Songs chart, Touch My Body has netted a record-setting 285,000 debut, while also reaching over 115 million listeners on the Hot 100 Airplay.
Coming up for Mariah, is her new album, E=MC² which hits record stores on April 15th.
And then, like the talented Miss Dolly Parton, Mimi will be a musical mentor to the finalists on American Idol on April 16th. She will also appear on AI's second annual “IDOL Gives Back” two-hour tv special on April 9th.
Also breaking records this week is Madonna with her single 4 Minutes. Madonna has now surpassed Elvis Presley with the most Top 10s in the rock era, with 4 Minutes marking her 37th Top 10 hit.
Madonna's increase in the Hot 100 has been attributed to download sales, making her #2 on the Hot Digital Songs chart.
This is the first time since 2003, when the Nielsen SoundScan began tracking digital sales, that the two titles debut simultaneously on the Hot Digital Songs with more than 200,000 downloads each.
America still loves the divas!

if mariah beats the beatles for most #1's it will honestly be the end of all music. she's ugly, her songs are completely unorginal, and she wears the worst, sluttiest clothes i have ever seen
Ha ha!! You F*ckers can't STAND that she's #1!!! Y'all are so pissed, I know it! Even filth like Perez can't stop THE QUEEN! You guys can BITE her! Go ahead, Mimi!!!!!!!!! You can't stop Talent!
Actually…Jay-Z beat both Elvis and now Mariah (I guess)…Soooooo…Mariah…Kick roxx…
It's a great day for women! Congrats Mariah!!
how horrible that she has a possibility of beating the beatles.
and come on 18 number ones?
her songs suck!
yeah and yoou could beat him too,, if your record label buys your singles and records, its a known fact that , she has got caught doing soo
let mariah wear the crown as a diva,,,,, same also worn, for britney, christina, kelly k, riannah, mary j, elton jon,,, do you get the point???? everyone is labeled a diva is that have a record out…….. but only a few can have the crown of a legend,, and very few can wear the crown of living legend,,, like madonna
the guy on the left is checking out her boobs
REJOICE !! REJOICE!! Mariah is at #1 again..just as expected !! She is now the ONLY artist (not in a Group) to have more #1s THAN ANY OTHER ARTIST !!! and before you know it she will have 4 more #1s and beat the Beattles !! OLDONNA's fans are sooooooooooooooooo jeaolus and embarrassed..once again EGG on their face as Mariah has BEAT Madonna in terms of sales and airplay ONCE AGAIN. Want proof ?? Look at the freakin CHARTS Madge fanatics (aka LOSERs)// MC does not need to dress in a freaking Corsette or Lingerie to sell records (how pathetic and desperate for 50 something Vadgeonna to resort to this but then again this is nothing new for her)//MC has class and she could care less as far as the HATERS are concerned ~!!
Mariah is the beneficiary of her record company breaking the law by using payola. This is well known within the music industry,but not talked about. Funny how this practice cannot be traced back to Madonna,Janet,Celine or Whiteny.If an ingestagation was done,her record company would be nailed.Resulting in,fines,penalties ect…. Even though she personally was not involved, she still bennfits.18 number one singles.People should not be rewarded for laws that have been broken.
go mimi..u'r the BEST
Breaking news: Madonna is NUMBER ONE on ITUNES! mOOORIAH IS AT NUMBER 2!!!!
Its sad this bitch Mariah is suddenly more popular than Elvis and The Beatles. Pathetic. So I guess the greats now are Elvis, Mariah, and The Beatles… eh yeah!
Everyone knows that Carey's former husband (Tommy Mattola) had huge influence with pop radio stations when he was president of Sony music corporation. This resulted in payola (the practice of paying off radio stations to play artists songs) which is supposed to be illegal. Now that she is at Island Def Jam her friend L.A. Reid is doing the same thing. A couple of years ago Sony along with other record labels were caught and fined for payola. This proves that when Carey was with the label she benefited from the actions of her label. Now Island Def Jam must be investigated. The government should go after these people just like they're going after athletes for steroid use. It is cheating, plain and simple and Miss Carey should be exposed for the fraud she and her record labels are perpetrating. Back in the 1990s she was sued in court three times for plagiarism (sampling other people's music without their permission) which she settled out of court for an undisclosed sums. This also proves she is dishonest and she most likely knew about her record labels practice of paying radio stations to play her music.
Re: MEOW – say what?? loser..
MIMI's NOT DEAD..
MARIAH IS NOT THE BENEFICIARY OF PAYOLA OR ANY $0.99 CENT SINGLES SALES FROM THE 90'S..THAT IS ALL A BUNCH OF BULL CRAP INVENTED BY HATERS SUCHS AS MANDONNA'S INSECURE LOSER FANS !! IF PAYOLA WAS STILL IN PLACE HOW IS "TOUCH BY BODY" SITTING ATOP AT #1 ??! MORONS.MARIAH IS THE QUEEN AND UNDISPUTING BEST SELLING FEMALE ARTIST WORLDWIDE OF ALL TIMES. ACCEPT IT !
What's all this about payola? She was never implicated in any of that, AND if she somehow WAS involved, then chances are, so was Madonna, to continue the senseless comparison.
Such hateful comments here, about both artists. People who continue to call Mariah fat- are you nuts? I guess you are unable to come up with anything better to say. Perez, shame on you for continuing to call her Mooriah, idiotic as well as insulting. Grow up.
goo mariah i love u and ur a legend much better then thsat old baggy lady no one under the age of 18 likes maddona
ONLY GAY GUYS LIKE MADDONA MARIAH ACTUALLY HAS STRAIGHT FANS
LOVE U MARIAH U HAVE MILLIONS OF LAMBS ALL OVER THE WORLD WHO LOVE U AND UR A LEGEND OLDANNA IS SOO IOLD AND BORING AND ONLY GAY GUYS LIKE HER

Re: TrickSlut – tOp.
Re: weaver – tOp..
Thank God Madonna has Gay fans…usually gay people have money, Can afford a $350.00 concert ticket, can buy albums, expencive clothes like my $600.00 D&G glasses, are more educated and well traveled, plus we take care of our bodies and look better then most straight guys. Oh I forgot to metion we look better in drag then most ladies. Sorry for your ignorance but Mariah's camp is mostly gay but unfortunitly she has a white trash fan base who can not even afford a 100.00 ticket because they keep making kids, can't pay their bills or buy some LV luggage. If you have to look up LV I understand. You uneducated cunt.
madonna is number 1 and mariah number 2 on us itunes
Your right Gay people do have taste which is probably why they like Madonna and she is the QUEEN
Madonna=Dom Perignon…expensive, taste, better with age.
Mariah=Asti Spumante…cheap, affordable, white trash
The music industry needs to better police itself against fraud, deception and illegal practices.Make sure that when records are broken it is done fair and square.Not through someone using PAYOLA, 99cent single sales, and a record company manipulating numbers,and deceving the public about the acatual number of sales.In the olympics,if someone won a gold medal and it was found out they cheated, they would be required to give the medal back and have their numbers erased.
Dear Asshole…Please send the mill..ionare. friends a virus to his site and his/her crotch..thank you..
well..i'm GAY and i hate the Old bitch..i use to be a fan when she came with erotica, loooooooong,long time ago.. tic toc is 2 sad'\
Well that just goes to show that not all gay people have good taste.
MADONNA'S NEW SONG IS DOING GREAT NOT JUST IN THE USA, BUT WORLDWIDE SOMETHING MARIAH CAN' T SAY CAUSE SHE IS NOTHING OUTSIDE THE USA. SHE HAS NEVER BEEN A CULTURAL ICON LIKE MADONNA!
I WISH I COULD BE HOT BUT I AM FAT AND LOVE KFC TOO MUCH!!! WELL AT LEAST I WILL GET MY 18th #1! WE HAD TO SHELL OUT SOOOO MUCH CASH TO RADIO STATIONS TO PLAY MY SHIT SONG BUT IT WAS WORTH IT.

Re: MIMI IS THE BEST – you know it is one thing to Idolize Mariah but to show everyone that you are nothing but an ignorant douche bag is another thing , I rest my case Mariah might be the best but her fans are truly ghetto and very uneducated trashy people , I don't think your Idol Mariah won't even agree with you calling out someone a fag or aids infested fag , you know why ???? because I'm sure a bunch of gay guys does her hair and make up , I'm not sure about her outfits though cos usually gay guys have a better taste picking up ensembles lol anyways I just don't think Mariah is as ignorant as her fans and you just proved my point . Grow the fuck up you ignorant bitch.

Stop crying and bitching about Mariah already. let her fans enjoy and take all this success in. If you don't have something nice to say, then shut the pie whole already. No one wants to read negative crap about our IDOl. It just makes you look stupid. Let go of you stupid Ego's already! Give credit where credit is due. Go MARIAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Sergio – uh yeah YOU WISH. thats why the beatles have lived on for over 40 years. god youre an asshole
you are so lame moorio!!! get over it only you are comparing them to eachother, and i used to respect and like your site but i'm pretty close to never coming on this site again…you are so bias and incredibly childish, you can't even let mariah's triumph without bringing up your precious madge. let it go dude, and your always wrong with your timing and facts.
Re: LickMyNutz – Who cares if she's nothing elsewhere? She's living in AMERICA, singing songs in AMERICAN ENGLISH… moron!
get it right nigga….america loves MARIAH, not madonna….let europe have her!….and by the way dont u feel stupid that u have to metion madonnas top ten hits? i mean come on now….like the nelly song…….:::coughs coughs:::: "NUMBER 3 IS NOT A WINNER AND #2 NOBODY REMEMBERS!!!

HOw the fuck did this happen? What type of retatd buys her singles/ albums??! She is SO '90's- all of her songs are practically the same shit rehashed. From a technical stand point she might have a good voice but her music, fashion sense and personality suck the big fat kumera! RETIRE SKANKHO!
Go Mariah! She'll surely have over 20 #1 hits in her lifetime. She will be the one to beat
Re: beeee –
Exactly, I agree.
Good for her though.
135 - PHX says – reply to this
Re: Michael_26 – Mariah's new song is nowhere to be found in Europe. It's not on the radio, I haven't seen the clip on any of the music channels, nobody cares. Madonna on the other hand released her new single, and it went to number one in
EXCUSE ME ?
THAT'S WRONG YOU CAN HEAR ' TOUCH MY BODY ON BELGIAN ,DUTCH AND FRENCH RADIO AND PROBABLY ALSO IN OTHER COUNTRYS IN EUROPE
i NOW A ALOT OF PEOPLE HERE IN EUROPE WHO REALLY LOVE TOUCH MY BODY !!!!!
saw her in selfridge. So ugly!! 2 much make-up, tan >:P
Relax people, if Elvis had lived longer, if he married a record mogel, had questionalble talent, and dressed like a $2 hooker, he’d be Mariah. Now that’s a record no one wants. Long live the King.
i'm not denying her talent, i admire the fact that she can sing but can someone put the bitch down? gosh, all of her recent songs sound the SAME! how is that a feat? why, oh why are we falling for the same broken down record time and again?
and on the subject of her body? put some clothes on! we don't need to see her nakedness dressed in barely there outfits.
SHE IS THE BEST I HOPE SHE BEATS THE BEAT-LESS!!!
mariahdaily reported this way ahead before you… so stop the illusion.
