Executive produced by the diva herself, along with Tim Case, Charleen Manca and Matthew Turke of Supply & Demand, and directed by Joseph Kahn, this year’s special follows on from 2020 feature ‘Mariah Carey’s Magical Christmas Special’.
That show saw the All I Want for Christmas hitmaker called upon by Santa to save the holidays, with a string of performances including classics like Sleigh Ride and Joy To The World, along with a new version of Oh Santa!, featuring Ariana Grande and Jennifer Hudson.
Earlier this week, Mariah officially kicked off the 2021 festivities with a special video clip featuring her destroying Halloween decorations and declaring “It’s Time”.
She also hinted at the new single; as she played with presents and threw fake snow up in the air, the camera panned to one gift that had the date “11/5″ decorated on it.
The video ended with the message: “It’s Time!!! To smash that pumpkin and treat it as pie… cause we still gotta get through Thanksgiving!!!”
