Mariah Carey‘s reign as the Queen of the Billboard Hot 100 shows no sign of stopping.
Already shining as the solo act with the tally’s most chart-toppers (19 as of time reported), the diva has spent the last 32 years hoisting an unrivaled number of record-breaking stats into the hitlist’s history books.
This week, thanks to the perennial domination of her holiday classic ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You,’ Carey’s unwrapped yet another unprecedented accomplishment.
Details inside.
Before Monday (December 19), only 42 songs in the Hot 100’s 64-year history had enjoyed runs at its summit that lasted longer than 10 weeks. The refreshed edition of the hitlist shows ‘All I Want for Christmas’ coming in as the 43rd.
Here are the stats that powered its tenth #1 placement.
- Streams: 41.4 million U.S.-based streams
- Sales: 11,000 U.S.-based downloads
- Radio airplay: 33.1 million radio airplay audience impressions
Among all the artists who have songs that have spent 10 consecutive or non-consecutive weeks atop the chart, only three can boast having three tunes with such lengthy tenancy: Carey (‘One Sweet Day’ – 16 weeks, ‘We Belong Together’ – 14 weeks, and ‘Christmas’ – 10 weeks), Boyz II Men (‘End of the Road’ – 13 weeks, ‘I’ll Make Love to You’ – 14 weeks, ‘One Sweet Day’ -16 weeks), and Drake (‘One Dance’ – 10 weeks, ‘God’s Plan’ – 11 weeks, ‘In My Feelings’ – 10 weeks).
Also of note, topping this week’s Hot 100 comes as Mariah’s 89th print there – extending her reign as the artist with the most career weeks at #1 overall.

@Fancy yaaaaaaaaaaas you betta school that trolling ass heffa now chile! 🤣
@ idiot troll with the same I.p. responding to itself answer the question! What happened to nono? And that Ty dolla sign feature? Moomoo is passed her damn prime, no modern hits! A bunch of flop singles. Jlos an award winning musician actress model performer ect. People call on jlo for tributes to Whitney and Motown because she’s a vocalist who can perform her ass off.she isn’t sone fat saggy lip synching moo cow with a deteriorated voice that can’t dance and forced to and in one place so her dress doesn’t rip from all the fat! They’d never call on a ruined voiced cow for a tribute or to sing at the inauguration like they did jlo. Get over it you had yearrrrs to lmaoooooooo
Chile please, you’re trying to act like JLow is EGOT status lol…nope, just THOT status for now *Meryl Streep voice* lmaoooooooo 🤣 You MUST be thinking about Miss JHUD who has ALL the damn awards lol 🤳🏽💋 Miss JLow hasn’t mastered ANYTHING except being a runaway bride 🤣 👰♀️ And as for that Motown “tribute” lol…clearly, nobody else was available and Berry just wanted to see a model with a mic that night 😂 Mariah took I’ll Be There all the way to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and many consider her version a bonafide classic…please stop with the delusions about Janet’s backup dancer lmaooooooooo 👀 ☕️
Drop the T from EGOT because she’s all EGO. Starting in one Janet video and then thinking she could make it alone. Which she hasn’t as she doesn’t even sing on most of her own damn tracks.
Lmaoooo I can’t wait for everybody to laugh at this tubby cow once she f**** up the only song anyone remembers by her. lmaoooooo
JLow had her stripper pole and her mic OFF at the Super Bowl lmaooooooooo 🤣👀 She couldn’t even book the stage by herself, it had to be a 2 for $1 with Shakira lol 😂☕️ Mariah has the #1 song in the WORLD 🌍 right now, boo boo…Happy Holidays HOEE lol Christmas 🎄🎁 😂💋
The music may be old but the charts is current. Go Queen of music
And to think that with about 2-3 more Christmas’ she will rightfully so, snatch back HER record of most weeks at number one.
It should never have been taken away from her. Not by that song.
