    Mariah Carey’s ‘Honey’ single cover.

    Did you know that today (August 26th) is the 15th anniversary of Mariah Carey’s record-breaking single ‘Honey’?

    ‘Honey’ was released on August 26th 1997 as the lead single from Carey’s iconic ‘Butterfly’ album. The song debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 as the diva’s 3rd song to achieve that feat and earned her the title of being the only artist in the history of the chart to land three #1 debuts.

    Additionally, ‘Honey’ was Carey’s 12th #1 song on the Hot 100 and tied her with The Supremes as the female artists with the most chat-topping singles. Since that time, Carey has notched an additional 6 #1 songs on the Hot 100, increasing her total to 18 and ranking in 2nd place behind only The Beatles as the act with the most pole position singles.

    Watch the video for ‘Honey’ that introduced the world to the sexy image, for which Carey has become famous, below:

      Paul Hunter did a excellent job helping to showcase or unleash Mariah’s inner sex kitten lol..she did say she considered “Butterfly” a huge turning point in her life so she should recruit him to do another video this era!

      I remember this like it was yesterday!!! My 5 year old self was a Mariah stan.

    • Liberiangirl

      Oh the talented Mariah Carey, no one does it better!

    • DRB

      My favorite MC first single. Fantasy and VOL being next.

    • FAB IT

      too bad she can t do that today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! POOR MIMI

    • theman

      She can do whatever she wants to.

    • Liberiangirl

      @FAB IT, and let the ignorance begin. Mariah has inspired and will continue to inspire regardless if she loses her voice! Her legacy alone speaks for itself not the state of her current voice. I love how these people always want to come for Mariah when your fave’s Fave is Mariah!

    • Benron (King Of The Navy)

      Aww, the singles queen! Too bad she will be thrown down to princess when Rihanna snatches that crown off her scalp!

    • MC

      @Benron (King Of The Navy) Unlike Rihoeanna is actually sells records so……that logic fails. I don’t expect anything less from someone as stupid and ignorant as yourself.

      First love Mariah!! Trent so when do we get to see some anniversary’s of Whitney accomplished? As she has passed you know. Im not hating…..(so please “lambs” don’t slit my throat….. but isnt it quite peculiar that not since Columbia has Mariah debuted at #1? Odd to me.

    • latifa

      @FAB IT too bad your fave never could do it, shame

    • theman

      @Gabriel what are u talking about? The Mimi and E=M2 album both debuted at #1.

    • ….

      Rihanna fans are forever commenting on Mariah posts LMAO. Like…don’t you guys have nothing better to do? How about you spend less time worrying about Mimi & more time trying to get your fave a number one US album?

      They only try to shade Mariah cos they know she’s the most successful female solo artist of all time and that CANT-SINGANNA could NEVER!

      Why dedicate so much of your time to an artist you clearly don’t like? It’s a little sad…..

    • Gabriel

      @theman- I’m talking about the same thing as the article her singles. After Columbia she had no debut #1 singles. I remember out the gate this single was 99 cents. Rhianna to Mariah well come on now…….but I’m sad to say she will be the one to break the #1 singles record as she is counted for every song she sings the hook on that goes #1……no matter how bad it is.
