Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1969 or 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, actress, and record producer. Referred to as the "Songbird Supreme" by Guinness World Records, she is noted for her five-octave vocal range, melismatic singing style, and signature use of the whistle register.
She rose to fame in 1990 after signing to Columbia Records and releasing her eponymous debut album, which topped the U.S. Billboard 200 for eleven consecutive weeks. Soon after, Carey became the only artist ever to have their first five singles reach number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart, from "Vision of Love" to "Emotions".
Oprah Winfrey is bringing back one of her viral moments. After virtually interviewing Mariah Carey for “The Oprah Conversation” ahead of the release of her memoir The Meaning Of Mariah Carey, the pair recreated the hilarious moment where Lady O attempts to sing along to one of the singer’s hits.
The original clip is from Carey’s 2005 performance of “We Belong Together” on “The Oprah Winfrey Show”. But what caused the appearance to go viral was the camera catching Winfrey not knowing the words to the iconic song.
