Carey, West, Legend top Grammy nods
Mariah Carey's comeback came full circle Thursday as she was nominated for eight Grammys, including album of the year for "The Emancipation of Mimi" and song and record of the year for her torch ballad "We Belong Together."
Carey's eight nominations tied John Legend and Kanye West.
Carey's many nominations helped put an exclamation point on her amazing year. Her career had been languishing in recent years, and some insiders doubted whether the multi-octave singer could return to her multiplatinum ways after a series of debacles, including an emotional breakdown and being bought out of her Virgin Records contract.
"The Emancipation of Mimi" proved the skeptics wrong. Not only has it sold more than 4 million copies, making it the No. 2 best-selling album of the year, but it included one of the year's most popular songs with "We Belong Together."
Mariah's Nominations Recap:
Album of the Year - The Emancipation of Mimi
Record of the Year - We Belong Together
Song of the Year - We Belong Together
Best Female Pop Vocal Performance - It's Like That
Best Female R&B Vocal Performance - We Belong Together
Best Traditional R&B Vocal Performance - Mine Again
Best R&B Song - We Belong Together
Best Contemporary R&B Album - The Emancipation of Mimi

"I felt that I was doing a record that was really unique," a beaming Carey told E! Entertainment shortly after the nominations (which she helped announce) were unveiled in New York City. "[Mimi] was an entire piece of work that really came from my heart."

In her answer to Katie Couric's "Will you be performing?" Mariah said: "I don't know, I haven't been asked yet!"
