Mariah Carey Proclaims the Arrival of the Christmas Season: ‘It’s Time’

Mariah Carey, famously known as the Queen of Christmas, always manages to capture the essence of the holiday season effortlessly. Displaying her promptness, she wastes no time embracing the festive spirit while ensuring her devoted fans, the Lambily, exercise patience and resist starting the holiday preparations prematurely. Her message remains consistent: “Not yet.”

Yet, the moment the clock strikes 12:01 on November 1st, Mariah wastes no time in igniting the Christmas fervor. Recently, she unveiled a video accompanied by her trademark seasonal kickoff phrase, “It’s… TIME!!!,” along with the hashtag #MariahSZN. True to her nature, Mariah concludes the spectacle by hitting one of her signature high notes, fracturing the ice alongside a vibrant exclamation of “It’s time!!!!” Joining the festivities are her 12-year-old twins, Monroe and Moroccan, who dance alongside a jubilant crowd while Carey’s iconic holiday hit, “All I Want For Christmas Is You,” triumphantly plays for the first time this season.

This 1994 hit has long been an essential part of the Christmas repertoire, reaching its pinnacle by securing the No. 1 position in 2019. Since then, it has continued to dominate the chart, solidifying its status as the most beloved holiday song of all time. Carey’s upcoming 13-date Merry Christmas One and All! tour, starting on November 15th in Highland, CA, promises to spread festive cheer across North America, culminating in a grand finale at Madison Square Garden in New York on December 17th. Mariah Carey’s impeccable timing, alongside her unwavering dedication to all things festive, undoubtedly cements her title as the Queen of Christmas.
