Correct Answer: B) Mariah Carey

🎶 Mariah Carey Becomes First Artist to Top Billboard Hot 100 in Four Different Decades

Pop icon Mariah Carey has achieved a historic milestone with her beloved holiday hit, "All I Want For Christmas Is You." The song has secured the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for the week of January 4, 2020, marking Carey's 19th chart-topping single and her first No. 1 hit of the new decade. This accomplishment makes her the only artist to have a No. 1 hit in four different decades.

The track's resurgence to No. 1 is attributed to a new music video released just before the peak of the holiday season. Originally released in 1994 as the lead single from her album "Merry Christmas," the song first reached the Billboard Hot 100's top spot in December 2019, 25 years after its debut.

Carey's achievement sets her apart from music legends such as Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, and Madonna, who have topped the Billboard Hot 100 across three decades. "All I Want For Christmas Is You" is only the second holiday song to ever reach No. 1 on the Hot 100, the first being "The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late)" in 1958.

In addition to her chart success, Carey celebrated the 25th anniversary of her holiday classic with a special tour and performances in her Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace. She is a five-time GRAMMY winner with 34 nominations, and she won the Best New Artist award at the 33rd GRAMMY Awards in 1991.
