It’s predicted that Mariah Carey’s new single “Touch My Body” will next week hit the #1 spot on Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.

This means that she will now have 18 number-one hits, surpassing Elvis Presley (17).

The record for the most number-one hits is held by the Beatles with 20. Mariah told Billboard.com when asked if she ever thinks about surpassing the Beatles, “I do, because people bring it up. But it’s not like I sit around thinking about that type of stuff while I’m creating something. I did write this record in terms of wanting it to be a lot of songs that could potentially be singles, because people like that.”
