Just weeks after the “low-key” wedding, one still asks the question did Mariah Carey make the right choice by tying the knot with rapper/actor/producer Nick Cannon who many are now calling a “fame seeker?”
According to this week’s issue of In Touch Magazine, Carey, a multi-platinum selling artist married the MTV “Wild-n-Out” star without a pre-nuptial agreement. This after dating for just a few weeks leading many to believe that the relationship will fail sooner than later.

MANILA, Philippines—Janet Jackson, Madonna and Mariah Carey, the top female pop icons of the ’80s and ’90s, are still at it after all these years—and they’re back with new projects to reassert their supremacy on Billboard’s music charts:
This week, Elvis Presley’s durable chart records get a drubbing from Madonna and Mariah: When “4 Minutes,” Madonna’s collaboration with Justine Timberlake (culled from her 11th studio album, “Hard Candy”) landed at No. 3 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart, the Material Girl surpassed the King for the most number of top 10 hits—her 37th!
But, Carey does even better: With “Touch My Body,” the carrier track from her upcoming album, “E=MC2,” she delivers her 18th No. 1 hit—a feat that enables her to take over the No. 2 spot from Presley for the most number of No. 1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100, second only to the Beatles, who have 20.

Although she won the third season of Simon Cowell’s British TV talent competition “The X Factor,” Leona Lewis doesn’t stand out much on her debut. In fact, if you blank for a moment on who you’re listening to, it may take a minute to remember that it’s Lewis. She sounds like plenty of other latter-day R&B divas: There’s a little Mariah Carey, a bit of Christina Aguilera, maybe some Alicia Keys, even a hint of Whitney Houston.
What there’s not is a lot of originality.

Mariah Carey’s career is truly the stuff of legend. Since she began her career, Mariah has since become the best-selling female performer of all time, with an incredible 15 #1 singles and two Grammy Awards. Along the way she became the only artist to top the charts in each year of the 1990s, and, with “Heartbreaker,” she pushed ahead of the Beatles as the artist with the most cumulative weeks spent atop Billboard’s Hot 100 Singles

Mariah Carey is making yet another comeback with her latest single “Touch My Body.” It’s the first single off her new album “E=MC2,” which will be released on April 15 by Island Records.
Her music has definitely evolved over the past decade, ever since she and former Colombia Records executive Tommy Mottola-who had a lot to do with Carey’s initial rise to fame-called it quits in 1998. The two met while working on her debut album.
After her separation from Mottola, Carey began to take more creative control over her music. She also went through an image change as she tip-toed her way into hip-hop with albums like “Butterfly,” “Rainbow,” “Charmbracelet” and her most recent, “The Emancipation of Mimi.”
But where has Mariah been the last three years? Fans waited eagerly for her to come out with something fresh. Then, on Feb. 19, “Touch My Body” hit the radio.
Though her new single reaches nowhere near the magnitude of her last singles, “We Belong Together” and “Don’t Forget About Us,” “Touch My Body” is still a hit in my book. It’s a sweet and sexy mid-tempo tune with a simple, monotonous beat hidden behind melodic vocals.
Though the title of the song is a bit salacious, the music video will have you chuckling because the message is so very different from the blatant “touch my body” message.
