Mariah Carey is celebrating her 55th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed singers of her generation.

Popular singer Mariah Carey (All I Want for Christmas Is You, Vision of Love, I'll Be There, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 55th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Carey, a cultural icon
