Mariah Carey MCAREY033008_24.jpg We've been warning y'all for months to keep an eye on how Mariah Carey's new single "Touch My Body" performs on the charts. Well, hopefully you've been paying attention - because yesterday, Mimi made history!

With "Touch My Body"'s ascent to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 yesterday, Mariah unseated Elvis Presley to become the solo artist with the most career #1 records with 18 total chart-toppers. Unfortunately, she's still two number ones behind the all-time leaders the Beatles, but as Billboard points out, there's still a month to go before her album E=MC2 actually sees release - numbers 19 and 20 might well be on it!

And, stunningly, that wasn't even the only record Mariah broke yesterday - "Touch My Body" also set the single-week record for most digital downloads since Billboard started tracking the stat! Mimi's 286,000 stomped a mudhole into the old record, previously held by Rihanna and the 277,000 copies of "Umbrella" she moved last June.

Needless to say, we're thrilled for Mariah - the King may be dead, but the Queen's doin' just fine!
