Mariah Carey has spoken: Christmas is here
Mariah Carey, the queen of Christmas, has announced the season's return in an Addams Family-themed video on social media.
In a video posted to Instagram and X, she starts in a Morticia Addams Halloween costume, adorned with a Kay Jewelers diamond necklace. She dances with a man dressed as Gomez Addams, and once the clock strikes midnight on Halloween night, Carey is seen with her classic Christmas fit as she sings, "It's tiiiiiiiiiiime."
Gomez turns into a snowman, and Carey's "All I Want For Christmas" begins blasting.
