Carey Will Soon Tie Record for No. 1 Sngles With The Fab Four
Move over, Beatles. Mariah Carey is in the house. With her silky voice and genuis songwriting abilities, this sistah will tie the legendary British band for having the most chart-topping hits.
"Touch My Body," the hip-hop diva's newest single, on her latest album "E=MC2" will give her 18 No. 1 singles, knotting her with the group more in the headlines recently for the crazy divorce drama between Paul McCarthey and Heather Mills $48.7 million divorce settlement than incredible songs like "Let It Be" and "Yellow Submarine."
The anticipated follow-up to her last cd (which was slammin') is due to hit stores later this month.
The 37-year-old biracial songstress from Long Island is currently tied with Elvis Presley for second place for top singles.
Carey, the best-selling female singer of all time, showed off her new hit and slimmed-down body on NBC's "Saturday Night Live" this weekend, sporting stilettos and a micro-miniskirt.
In an interview with Allure magazine, Carey joked that she doesn't need steroids to stay in top shape, but she does have some tricks to keep her voice sharp. Carey said she sometimes sleeps in the steam room of her Tribeca penthouse, claiming it keeps her vocal cords lubricated.
She said she imported a personal trainer from St. Barts to help her trim off an estimated 30 pounds from her 5-foot-9 frame.
"This trainer has actually helped me reshape my arms. That's where I gained most of my weight: upper body," she said. "With this whole steroid crap, that's crazy. I'm almost on the verge where I'd be too muscular if I was going to do a thing like that."
Currently shacking up with a Jack Russell terrier named J.J., and said she's too busy to settle down with a man. (yeah right!) "I mean, I have three personal assistants just to keep up with my schedule. It's not that difficult to become exhausted."
