Mariah Carey, known as the Queen of Christmas, kicked off the holiday season in style by declaring “It’s time!” via Instagram on November 1. The iconic singer shared a video of herself dressed as Morticia Addams from The Addams Family for Halloween, dancing with an actor dressed as Gomez Addams. As the clock struck midnight, Carey shed her Morticia persona and revealed a vibrant red Santa outfit, exclaiming “It’s time!” as her classic festive hit played in the background.
In a recent Instagram post, Carey announced the re-release of “All I Want for Christmas Is You” to celebrate the 30th anniversary of her holiday album, Merry Christmas. Despite the early announcement, Carey teased fans with a glimpse of the album cover art for the re-release, paying homage to the original design. She also shared that the physical singles for the song are available for pre-order.
While fans eagerly await the return of “All I Want for Christmas Is You” each holiday season, Carey’s twins, Moroccan and Monroe, seem to have had their fill of the festive tune. In a humorous video shared by the singer last Christmas Eve, her kids playfully mocked the song, questioning whether they need to be present every time Carey performs it. Despite their teasing, Carey remains unbothered and continues to spread holiday cheer with her music.
Reflecting on her career and the success of her Christmas hits, Carey revealed that her children are aware of her achievements but also find it amusing to see her topping charts alongside contemporary artists. In a lighthearted moment, Carey joked that she is not a real person but rather an animated character, poking fun at her enduring popularity and timeless music.
As the holiday season approaches, Mariah Carey’s festive spirit and timeless music continue to captivate audiences worldwide. With the re-release of “All I Want for Christmas Is You” and her iconic holiday cheer, Carey’s presence is sure to make spirits bright this season.
