Mariah Carey Breaks Another Record: Falling Off The Billboard Chart Completely

We're one full week into 2020 and Mariah Carey is still on a record-setting streak. Nevertheless right now, the music icon has damaged record that's a little bit much less, well... Exhilarating. Carey is currently the initial artist in history to go from having a No. 1 song on the Billboard Hot 100 one week to falling off totally the next. Please, hold the applause.


Just last week, Carey's hit holiday song "All I Want for Christmas Is You" sat atop the chart for the third week in a row. However right now that the holiday season is over, the song is nowhere to be noticed on the newest chart, dated January 11. However don't worry, Carey's not furious about it. "Worth it," she tweeted yesterday (January 6) alongside a gif of herself shrugging. "Haaa another record!"


Sure, this wasn't exactly a record that Carey set out to break, however she does have a point. Right considering that, she never would've been able to break it at all if she hadn't made it to that No. 1 spot to start with. And even she would agree that it was a long journey to get there. The Christmas classic rose to the very top of the chart in December immediately after a 25-year-long wait. So dropping off the chart totally with a seasonal holiday song is hardly a disappointment.


It's also worth noting that Carey's damaged a few records in recent weeks, and all (including this one, honestly) prove Carey to be the music legend we all know her to be. Just last week, as an example, she became the only artist in history to have a No. 1 single across four separate decades. And back in November, she broke three records in a solitary day thanks to her holiday hit, which has been dominating radio airwaves every December for 1/4 century.


Like Carey, we're going to take this new record in stride and "shake it off." The reigning Queen of Christmas has damaged so several incredible records already, and something tells us she's nowhere near finished.
