Mariah Carey may tower in record books as one of the most successful female artists of all time, but one wouldn’t exactly know that if judging by her trophy case alone.

Beyond being overlooked by the GRAMMYs several times over the years, Carey – a staple on BET since her 1990 debut – collected her first BET Award in June 2025 in the form of the ‘Ultimate Icon’ honor.

Two months later, the Songbird Supreme flew to the top of headlines for being crowned the recipient of the next Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award at the VMAs in September.

Much to the surprise of many, however, the announcement – much like with BET before it – was accompanied with news the trophy will be the first she’s ever captured from MTV.
