In total, as of 2009, she has recorded eleven studio albums, and she has been at the top of the music business for almost twenty years. Her attempts into the acting business have proved to be less successful, especially her lead actress debut in the film Glitter. The film was a commercial and critical failure, and her performance received numerous awards for being amongst the worst of the year. In 2008, Carey married actor Nick Cannon on the island of Eleuthera. Cannon is 9 years her junior.
