The singer Mariah Carey was personally responsible for starting the countdown to the arrival of Christmas with a superb performance in New York, on the occasion of Thanksgiving. The music diva led the large lineup of artists who took to the stage located in the heart of Manhattan, courtesy of Macy’s department store.
As expected, the star closed her musical number performing her Christmas classic ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’, a song for which, curiously, she wanted to give part of the prominence to her two children, the Moroccan and Monroe twins, fruit from her late marriage to Nick Cannon. At the end of the song, the children, who are now 11 years old, popped out of two gift boxes on the side and danced enthusiastically to the beat set by their famous mother.
Just a few minutes after her successful staging, Mariah took to her social networks to celebrate the start of the festive season in style, as well as to congratulate herself that, on this occasion, her offspring were encouraged to take on a role. so active in the celebrations. The prodigious vocalist faces this Christmas with special enthusiasm, after two very decaffeinated years due to the pandemic.
“Happy Thanksgiving! I’m so thankful and proud of my beautiful children, Roc and Roe, and thankful for my ‘lambily’ [about the very family relationship that binds him to her army of fans], and for all the moments so precious that life gives us. Now Christmas has come!” she said excitedly on her Instagram account.
Mariah Carey was not the only renowned artist to perform for such an important occasion, although she undoubtedly became the highlight of the Macy’s event. Paula Abdul, Jordin Sparks, Sean Paul, Lea Michele and the tireless Dionne Warwick also enlivened one of the most endearing and familiar days on the American calendar with their songs.
