The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) hosted its 23rd annual Rhythm & Soul Music Awards last night at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, CA. The star-studded event, which was attended by over 650 leading songwriters, recording artists and music industry notables honored the songwriters and publishers of the most performed ASCAP songs on the 2009 R&B/Hip-Hop, Rap and Gospel charts.

Top awards were handed out to:
• Songwriters of the Year (tie): Ne-Yo, C. “Tricky” Stewart and The-Dream
• Song of the Decade: “We Belong Together” written by Jermaine Dupri, Johnta Austin and Manuel Seal
• Top Rap Song: “Best I Ever Had” written by Matthew “Boi-1da” Samuels
• Top R&B/Hip-Hop Song: “Blame It” written by Christopher Henderson, Brandon “Note” Melancon, The-Dream, C. “Tricky” Stewart and Nate Walka
• Top Gospel Song: “Souled Out” written by Ernest Estee Bullock
• Publisher of the Year: EMI Music Publishing

Atlanta rapper T.I. presented the Song of the Decade Award to fellow Atlantans Johnta Austin, Jermaine Dupri and Manuel Seal for their work on Mariah Carey’s massive hit, “We Belong Together.” The song topped the Billboard charts, won two Grammy Awards for Best R&B Song and Best Female R&B Vocal Performance, and was named ASCAP Pop Song of the Year in 2006.

Here are the top 10 songs with the highest radio audiences, according to Nielsen BDS (listed by each title’s peak audience week). You correctly guessed the top song on the list:

Peak Audience, Title, Artist, Peak Date
212.1 million, “We Belong Together,” Mariah Carey, July 9, 2005
196.3 million, “Irreplaceable,” Beyonce, Jan. 20, 2007
192.5 million, “No One,” Alicia Keys, Dec. 22, 2007
189.6 million, “Let Me Love You,” Mario, Feb. 5, 2005
175.6 million, “Gold Digger,” Kanye West featuring Jamie Foxx, Oct. 22, 2005
172.8 million, “Yeah!,” Usher featuring Lil Jon & Ludacris, April 17, 2004
172.3 million, “My Boo,” Usher and Alicia Keys, Nov. 20, 2004
171.4 million, “Be Without You,” Mary J. Blige, April 1, 2006
170.2 million, “In Da Club,” 50 Cent, March 29, 2003
167.7 million, “Dilemma,” Nelly featuring Kelly Rowland, Sept. 7, 2002

It’s not a coincidence that the songs above all scored success at pop and R&B/hip-hop radio. As the two formats have traditionally enjoyed strong Arbitron ratings in large markets, tracks that cross over between them have a greater chance at registering the highest overall audience totals on the Radio Songs survey.

Here are the acts that have started with the longest streaks of Hot 100 top 10s beginning with their first chart entries:

13, Lionel Richie (1981-87)
12, George Michael (1985-90)
11, Mariah Carey (1990-94)
9, New Kids on the Block (1988-90)
7, Air Supply (1980-82)
7, Taylor Dayne (1988-90)
7, Expose (1987-90)
7, Gary Lewis and the Playboys (1965-66)
7, the Lovin’ Spoonful (1965-67)
7, Richard Marx (1987-89)
7, Monica (1995-99)
7, Ricky Nelson (1958-59)

Carey came close to logging an even lengthier top 10 streak, as, after her 12th Hot 100 charted title, “Anytime You Need a Friend,” peaked at No. 12, she rebounded with top 10s in her next six visits. In all, 17 of her first 18 and 20 of her first 22 Hot 100 entries scaled the top 10.

No artist has entered the top 10 with at least seven consecutive out-of-the-box Hot 100 charted titles since Monica in 1999.

In an era where album cuts can reach the chart due to even a week’s-worth of robust digital sales, it could be difficult for another artist to accomplish such a streak anytime soon.

The Hero singer – who is married to rapper/presenter NICK CANNON – reportedly owes just under £20,000 in unpaid bills for Dr. Cindy Bressler’s services.

The veterinarian filed a lawsuit in a New York court on Wednesday accusing the Hero hitmaker of paying just $8,200 (£5,466) of a $37,800 (£25,200) bill for providing “extraordinary services” for her dogs Cha-Cha, JJ and Dolomite in ONE month.

The filing states Cindy tended to the pets “at the special instance and request” of Mariah between October 31 and December 2 last year.

It added: “She rendered veterinary services including extraordinary services to the defendant’s canines.

“Dr. Bressler performed work, labour and services on the defendant’s canines… at the agreed price and reasonable value of $37,790.32, which sum Mariah agreed to pay.”

If Cindy’s claim is successful, Mariah will also have to pay her legal costs – making the final total sum higher.

Cindy’s attorney told gossip website TMZ the vet was in charge of feeding and grooming the pooches while Mariah was away in Los Angeles.

A spokesperson for 41-year-old Mariah said her legal team were not aware of the lawsuit.

Mariah is seemingly struggling to handle her three beloved pooches – she asked fans on Twitter earlier this week if they wanted to adopt Cha Cha’s puppies.

Launching a fragrance is easy money for celebrities with the right star power.

So it’s no surprise, following news that Mariah Carey dropped out of Tyler Perry’s For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf, that she’s looking to boost her biz with a new trio of fragrances called Lollipop Bling. (Yes, that is really the name.)

“It means she needs an infusion of cash,” says Jo Piazza, who writes the Celebenomics column for AOL’s PopEater.

“Celebrity fragrance has the highest margins of any celebrity branded consumer product and they get paid an upfront of between $2 million and $5 million. If the fragrance sells well it can bring in revenues of $100 million a year, requiring a celebrity to do very little in promotions or marketing.”

For Carey’s latest set of fragrances (she’s already got M by Mariah Carey, M by Mariah Carey Gold, Luscious Pink, and Forever), Elizabeth Arden, the company that holds Carey’s fragrance license, partnered with Bazooka Candy Brands, a division of Topps Company, Inc. which also makes Ring Pops.

“The inspiration for Lollipop Bling was Nick’s marriage proposal to me…He first surprised me with a Ring Pop,” Carey says in a release.

Mimi’s always been a kid at heart (you’ll recall her fondness for all things Hello Kitty), so it follows that she’d relish a Ring Pop proposal. But perfume that smells like candy?

“Hopefully it will be a more sophisticated interpretation of bubble gum,” says Candace Corlett, President of WSL Strategic Retail. “But I’m sure it will make people open the bottle to smell it just to see.”

Could Mimi be more biz-savvy than we give her credit for? Maybe “Lollipop Bling” is a bit of marketing genius.

“With a celebrity like Mariah Carey, a fragrance can be a winning option,” says Karen Grant, vice president and global industry analyst, The NPD Group. “Based on NPD’s Celebrity Influence study, she is ranked in the top 25 in terms of awareness among those age 13 and up, and among the top 20 that they see endorsing a fragrance.”

Elizabeth Arden is planning on marketing the scents–Honey, Mine Again and Ribbon–using gumball machine gift sets and a lollipop rollerball fragrance set starting this Fall. (The scents sans gimmicky packaging are $35 a pop (pun intended), and will be available at department stores nationwide in July 2010.)

It’s a smart move, says Grant.

“In recent years, fragrances with novelty and fun packaging like Gwen Stefani’s Harujuku Lovers have been a big hit. As celebrity fragrances also tend to appeal more to a younger consumer, the affiliation with Topps Candy could, potentially, be a way to capitalize on the trend of a fun fragrance option,” says Grant.

But if you’re not a tween, would you wear it?

Mariah Carey will be going head to head with royalty and super-rich Michael Jackson fans in a bid to land a sofa set the King of Pop commissioned for his This Is It stageshow at an auction in Las Vegas on Friday, June 25.

The pop superstar has asked interior designer to the stars Kenneth Bordewick to bid on the item at a Julien’s Auction held on the anniversary of the Thriller singer’s death.

Ironically, Bordewick also advised Jackson on the furniture for his London home – and flew to Italy to oversee the manufacture of the 22 items that craftsmen at Combustile custom made for the King of Pop.

He tells WENN, “Mariah is very interested in the sofa set, which is expected to fetch $150,000, but I think it’s more likely to go under the hammer for $1 million. It was to be used onstage for Michael’s This Is It shows – it was crafted using red-crushed velvet, 24-carat gold and Medici stones, or onyx as it’s more commonly known. It’s a monstrous piece, very Alice in Wonderland, with swags of silk on the back.”

And Bordewick reveals Carey won’t be the only high roller bidding for the furniture Jackson ordered for his Foxbury Manor mansion in England before he passed away last year – the Sultan of Brunei wants a four chair and sofa item, a replica of a parlour set once owned by Tsar Nicholas II of Russia.

The two armchairs in the set are expected to fetch $60,000 each and the sofa, which features threads of 24-cart gold, is expected to go under the hammer on Friday for up to $60,000. Both Carey and the Sultan are expected to bid for two Jackson-commissioned ottomans.

It’s not the first time the Hero singer has dug deep for an icon’s home decor – she splashed out a whopping $662,000 for Marilyn Monroe’s piano in 2004.

After purchasing the instrument at a Christie’s auction in New York, Carey said, “I could have gotten the Happy Birthday, Mr President dress or whatever, but that would have represented Marilyn Monroe’s stardom. The piano belonged to her mother and was a piece of her childhood.”
