My hero is Mariah Carey. Mariah Carey as an multi platinum recording artist. She is the greatest female singer since the 90's. Mariah Carey was born on March 27,1970 in Long Island,New York. "The best-selling female performer of the 1990s, Mariah Carey rose to superstardom on the strength of her stunning five-octave voice; an elastic talent who moved easily from glossy ballads to hip-hop-inspired dance-pop, she earned frequent comparison to rivals Whitney Houston and Celine Dion, but did them both one better by composing all of her own material."

Mariah Carey has been in Movies such as "Glitter" and "Wise Girls" which were the best movies ever. Although people said that "Glitter" was not such a success, fans loved it even so. Mariah has made her way to the cutting edge in 2005 with her 10th debut cd "The Emancipation Of Mimi". With ground breaking songs such as "We Belong Together", "Don't Forget About Us", and the one and only "Making It Last all Night" (What It do) Featuring the hottest producer Jermaine Dupri. Mimi Is making her way to the top. And I support and love her 100%

Mariah Carey has a house in New York, where she lives with her dog Jack, but soon plans to move to London.

Mariah Carey lived in Long Island, New York, with her mother who raised her. Her mother who is Irish and a father is African American.(As Mariah would say, "rest his soul") She has a sister named Alison and a brother named Morgan.

Mariah Carey is important to me because she faced a lot of hard times growing up and not only did she learn from it, she survived it and that makes me so happy that someone that I admire and love would do that. She takes bit and pieces of herself and just puts it in a song. The song that inspires me the most is "Can't Take That Away" (Mariah's Theme). That song really showed me that if you judge people you just don't have time to love them. And Mariah sets that example for everyone that tries to bring her down. Mariah Carey is just a remarkable person and I am saying that from the bottom of my heart. She truly is.
