瑪麗亞出生于紐約州蘇福克郡亨廷頓鎮(zhèn)，其母親擁有愛爾蘭血統(tǒng)并曾為歌劇女歌手，而曾任航空工程師的父親則擁有委內(nèi)瑞拉血統(tǒng)，因此瑪麗亞偶爾被美國(guó)媒體歸類為黑人歌手?，旣悂喭ǔ１徽J(rèn)為是世界最高音歌手，現(xiàn)場(chǎng)唱emotions時(shí)，唱出了G7＃（鋼琴的最高音）。另有記錄她在一場(chǎng)頒獎(jiǎng)晚會(huì)上手打拍子唱出了六個(gè)八度的音階，是一位擅用海豚音的歌手。（其高音記錄僅次于巴西女歌手G.Brown，而后者的音樂成就顯然無(wú)法與之相提并論。）

Hello and once again we're on music map, yes, we talked about Whitney Houston yesterday, and yes, we are NOT talking about her again today... yes, yes, I know what you're saying, I heard you, the song we're listening to IS "when you believe" from the "prince of Egypt " animated movie, and yes it is song by Whitney Houston, but NO! It is also sung by Mariah Carey!! Who we ARE talking about to~day.

When Mariah's Caucasian mother and afro-Latino father got married, cross-race marriage was still a big deal in the States. Their neighbors poisoned their family dog and set fire to their family car in protest, but the family got by.

They named Mariah Carey after a song named "they call the wind Mariah". But her parents got divorced when she was four. she stated later that her childhood definitely did make a difference in the direction of her career.

Music - without you

Like a Cinderella story, it all took off form there.

Carey published her first album "Mariah Carey" in 1990. It was during that time, she got romantically involved with, the man who gave her a shot at the music industry Tommy Mottola.

They eventually got married in 1993, but Tommy Mottola became very controlling. In one interview, Mariah says Tommy wouldn't let her do anything on her own. So even though the public was under the impression that her marriage was sweet and happily ever after, they got divorced in 1997.

After the divorce, Mariah felt fully in control of her life and music, which can be heard in her 1997 album "butterfly".

Music - honey

The album was a major hit and sold over 5 million copies world wide.

This was probably the peak of Carey's career. At that time, she had sold over 175 million albums world wide, and a lot of credit has to be given to her own characteristics that she displayed within her music.

Music - hero

So there you go, Mariah Carey. It's impossible to include all her life stories here on our show, but hey, as music fans, what matters is only her music, her natural talent along with her hard work, which gave us the blinding superstar we see today.
