The question is about #1 single in the world, not world chart, so, it's Ayumi Hamasaki:
These information are from 2008.
Mariah Carey Has 21 #1 Hits.
However - (corrected) Ayumi Hamasaki from Japan has 30 number 1 hit singles, and also has 40 top 10 singles. :)
I believe it's Madonna, with 13 number one hits.
Mariah Carey has the most number one Billboard hits

I think Taylor Swift. Shes gotten lots of awards, sold lots of albums, done concerts worldwide. I'd have to say Taylor. Actually Dolly Parton has had the most number one songs, having 25 No. 1. Second on the list is Reba McEntire with i believe having 24.

The Beatles had the most number ones by far with six, totalling 18 weeks at number one. There was one week during the 1960s (not sure if it was '64) when all five of the top five songs were Beatles songs.
George Strait
Taylor Swift. She is famous and is a country singer so she does.

Whitney Houston must have sung most songs. She is a Hollywood singer who has tremendous number of songs to her name. In India Kishore Kumar was the one.
