Mariah Carey celebrates having chart hits in FOUR decades with party on a private jet
MARIAH Carey has become the first artist to celebrate a number one single in four decades, thanks to her hit song All I Want For Christmas.
As Billboard's Hot 100 Chart confirmed the news Mariah celebrated the historic achievement in the only way a true diva could - by drinking champagne on a private jet with pals.
The chart firm tweeted: "@MariahCarey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” is officially No. 1 on the #Hot100 for a third week.
"As this is the first chart of the 2020s, she becomes the first artist in history to rule the chart in four separate decades: 1990s, 2000s, 2010s & 2020s."
In response, Mariah tweeted: "Yaaaaaaaaay!!! WE. DID. IT. But…. what’s a decade?"
The song was first released in 1994 and has gone on to be number one in all four decades since, however it only hit number one in the UK for the first time in 2019.
Mariah, 49, recently teased the first look at the brand new music video for her hit song - 25 years after its initial release.
The re-imagined video shows Mariah dressed in a Santa-inspired costume.
Set in a winter wonderland, Mariah is crooning in the white-fur trimmed red belted dress with dancers in matching candy cane striped dresses with silver sequin skirts behind her.
Two Santa Claus' can be seen ice skating while snowmen also dance amid the dazzling Christmas trees and a picturesque white house.

It is a similar but modernised version of the original video, which saw a then-24-year-old Mariah dressed in a padded red snowsuit as she frolicked in the snow with puppies and Father Christmas.
