In addition to several Grammy Awards, Mariah Carey has won numerous Billboard Music Awards and World Music Awards. In December 2019 she achieved her 19th number-one song on the Billboard singles chart in the United States, which is short of the Beatles’ record by one. Carey also appeared in such films as Glitter (2001), Precious (2009), and Lee Daniels’ The Butler (2013) and on television shows, including a stint as a judge on American Idol. She was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2022.
