New Mariah message


Just about ready for the holidays season to begin!

Hi lambs, after everything I've been through this year, I doubt there's anyone more excited for the holidays to begin than I am. I usually try my hardest to wait until after Thanksgiving to celebrate the holiday season but this just made my day and I gotta share.

Today on the street, a group of fans stopped me and started singing "All I Want For Christmas Is You" at the top of their lungs. Amazing. So many people tell me: "The holiday season doesn't start for us until we hea...r All I Want For Christmas Is You by Mariah." Surreal. I humbly thank them but inside I'm jumping up and down like a second grader on a snow day because I WROTE AND PRODUCED that song on a whim!!! To hear this and to see "All I Want For Christmas Is You" at #1 on this week's Billboard's chart... I kinda still can't believe it!

I'll never forget writing the melody and lyrics in a little studio decorated for Christmas in the middle of the summer. In case you know nothing about me, when I was a little girl, Christmas and music were the happiest moments I had and I never realized that people would grow up listening to and singing along with my songs like I grew up listening to "Jingle Bells" or "Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town"

Then, when I saw "Where Are You Christmas?" by Faith Hill at #2, I almost couldn't believe it because I wrote that song with the incredible Oscar-winning genius James Horner for the movie "The Grinch" a couple of years back. It blows my mind and makes me feel like that second grader on a snow day again!!

After I hugged the group of fans goodbye, they ran down the street, waving and continuing their rendition of "All I Want For Christmas Is You", a song I wrote very tongue-in-cheek, very cookies-and-milk, purely childhood-memories-forever!

I just want to thank everyone for consistently supporting my Christmas music year after year because it is so much more than holiday music for me. It's about joy, nostalgia, and it's about never losing the spirit of Christmas in your heart. Happy (very early) holidays! --MC

Lyrics to The Art of Letting Go 

[Verse 1]
I'm making a statement of my own opinion
Just a brief little reminder to help myself remember
I now no longer live in your dominion (no, no, no, ooh)
You're just trifling, nothing more than a liability
Gotta lay all your possessions
Outside the kitchen window right now

[Chorus]
Letting go, letting go ain't easy
Oh, it's just exceedingly hurtful
'Cause somebody you used to know
It's flinging your world around
And they watch, as you're falling down, down
Falling down, baby

[Verse 2]
Evidently your words were merely lies
Reverberating in my ears
And the echo won't subside
There's deep deep loss of hope
And the anger burns in me
I hope you don't get no ideas 'bout re-uniting baby
'Cause that's the last thing I truly need
Your audacity is too much to be believed, so
Go to MiMi on your contacts, press delete

[Chorus]
Letting go ain't easy
Oh, it's just exceedingly hurtful
'Cause somebody you used to know
It's flinging your world around
And they watch, as you're falling down, down
Falling down, baby

[Bridge]
Baybe letting go, baby letting go
Ain't easy, easy
Baby letting go, baby letting go (woah)
Ain't easy, Ain't easy

[Chorus - Outro]
Baby letting go, it ain't easy
'Cause somebody you used to know
It's flinging your world around
And you know what?
They watch as you're falling, as you're falling
Down
Fall
It ain't easy baby

Mark your calendars!! Mariah on Nov. 24 episode of "American Dad"

On the Nov. 24 episode of American Dad, Mariah Carey voices a character quite unlike her glamorous self.

"Mariah was great to have in the studio," says ­executive producer Matt Weitzman. "She'd never done voiceover work before, but she was clearly so comfortable in front of the mike. She's naturally funny."

Carey lends her pipes to Laura, a Southern football fan who meets Stan at a Cowboys game and invites him to join her tailgating festivities. But it's all too good be true — Stan's ideal Thanksgiving-day game turns out to be a dream; in actuality, he is stuck at home with his in-laws. That's some tough turkey.

Inside Mariah Carey’s Sweet Mommy Date With Twins Monroe and Moroccan

Mariah Carey treated her twins, Monroe and Moroccan, to a delicious day in NYC on Monday.

An eyewitness tells Life & Style that the trio were spotted at Dylan’s Candy Bar just days before the release of the songstress’ 14th studio album, The Art of Letting Go.

“The twins snacked on treats at The Candy Café, including pizza, chicken tenders and ice cream while Mariah sipped on a couple glasses of prosecco from The Candy Bar,” the onlooker says.

Hubby and daddy Nick Cannon was not there for the occasion, but the observer notes that Mariah, Monroe and Moroccan “sat together in a cupcake booth and had a great time.”

Their adorable date comes four days after they celebrated Halloween as a family of superheroes!

Mariah and Nick, who wed in April 2008, welcomed their twins on their third wedding anniversary.

Since becoming a parent, the superstar has bonded with her little guy and gal.

“I call her Miss Monroe, and that kind of dictated her personality. She’s a total diva. She’s into jewelry. She’s fascinated by jewelry,” she told Barbara Walters earlier this year. As for Roc, “He’s my pal. He’ll just watch movies with me. We’ve watched Shrek I don’t know how many times. We watch movies all the time together, relax. He’s more chill.”

And it helps that the 2 year old's love spending time together.

“They’re best friends,” Nick recently told Life & Style about dem babies. “All they do is worry about each other, they feed each other, it’s great.”

Nick Cannon's rules for Christmas shopping for Mariah Carey

Nick Cannon faces the unenviable responsibility every holiday season of having to find a Christmas gift for the woman with everything: Mariah Carey. It’s a small price to pay for getting to call one of the music industry’s most successful and desirable women his wife, but a stressful task nonetheless. Add to that the fact that Carey is a Christmas fanatic and is often associated with the holiday thanks to her hit “All I Want for Christmas Is You”

“My wife is the empress of Christmas,” Cannon said Saturday at Macy’s on State Street, where he took part in the lighting of the department store’s Great Tree with “American Idol” alum Lauren Alaina, and promoted his tie collection. “She is Mrs. Christmas. She puts the M.C. in Merry Christmas.”

Here, Cannon breaks down the gift-buying process for the mother of his 2-year-old twins, from beginning to end:

Start early: “I try to start out as far in advance as possible, and it still ends up being last minute. Something custom-made isn’t the way it’s supposed be, and I have to send it back or the font was wrong on the engraving. I have to start thinking about it at least six months beforehand, especially because we always do this thing where we try to top each other.”

Play to win: “It’s gotten to the point where it’s just absurd. I’m running out of stuff to get her. I tried to buy a dolphin one year because we had a house in the Bahamas. Even if we had to keep it at an aquarium, how cool would that be? We just didn’t have a place to keep it, and then you have to have all these (documents) and go through a license process. I didn’t have time for all that. I can’t believe it when I think about it. It sounds ridiculous. That’s what happens when you try to top each other. ‘Bet you she would never guess I got her a dolphin. How’s she going to top that?’ ”

Do your homework: “I listen to what she says, like, ‘Oh, I’d love to have this.’ The last good gift I got her was a chandelier. As grandiose and decadent as a chandelier sounds, it was the fact she didn’t ask for it. She would say, ‘I really want a chandelier,’ and this showed I was paying attention. I also ask around and talk to a few people who know her taste, just in case I need someone to blame: ‘Well, they said you would like this.’ ”

Put thought into it: “She doesn’t need a gift from anyone. She can pretty much go buy whatever she wants. The more thoughtful it is, the better the reaction. I’ll put together a video of the year or a Christmas video and edit stuff together with music in the background. I had one of her favorite artists paint a picture of her. That type of stuff goes over pretty well.”

Avoid jewelry: “I don’t buy my wife jewelry anymore because she’s Mariah Carey, and it’s kind of like she has all the jewelry in the world. Early on, I tried. I did pretty well with the wedding ring, but other than that I stay away from it. For one, it can break your pockets. You try to spend all this money on one piece of jewelry she never wears, like, ‘Where in the world are those earrings I pretty much mortgaged (the house on)?’ ”

Hope for the best: “You want that reaction. Everybody is going to be like, ‘Wow, thanks.’ But you can always tell 15 minutes after they open it if they like it or not when your gift is buried somewhere.”
