Mariah Carey, an American singer, songwriter, actor and producer, popularly referred to as the 'Songbird Supreme' by Guinness World Records, has won the hearts of many with her melismatic singing style, and signature use of the whistle register. Carey became the only artist ever to reportedly have her first five singles reach number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart. The Hollywood star's Twitter account was hacked on New Year's eve, and more than 50 tweets were posted from her account containing vulgarities and offense against singer-rapper Eminem.

According to reports, all offensive and vulgar tweets were erased from Carey's account as soon as the Twitter officials were made aware of the issue. The portal locked the compromised account and began investigating the situation. Some reports suggest that the hackers belonged to the group named 'The Chuckling Squad' that broke into the account of Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey as well as other celebrities and popular faces including actor Chloe Grace Moretz. Many useless tweets were posted through Mariah's hacked account on December 31, including racial tweets and sexual comments about rapper Eminem. Though the tweets were deleted by evening, some of the posts mentioned that The Chuckling Squad has broken into Twitter again.
