Mariah Carey has officially started the countdown to Christmas!

Mariah Carey has officially declared “It’s Time” to kick off the holiday season with a festive, Addams Family-themed video! Just after midnight on November 1st, the “Queen of Christmas” shared her annual holiday countdown clip on Instagram, this year channeling Morticia Addams.

Dressed in a sparkling black gown, with a Kay Jewelers diamond necklace, dark makeup, and a black wig, Mariah playfully danced with a Gomez Addams-inspired character before transitioning into her iconic red holiday dress, marking the beginning of the countdown. Her record-breaking holiday anthem, “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” began playing as she sat in a sleigh surrounded by presents.

“IT’S TIME!!!! ⏱️ ,” Mariah captioned the video, adding a dash of holiday magic. In a fun twist, her male co-star transformed into a dancing snowman, and “It’s Time!” flashed above a holiday castle.

This year, Carey is celebrating 30 years of Christmas cheer since her 1994 Merry Christmas album release, and she’s even partnering with Virgin Hotels to create “All I Want for Christmas”-themed bars across the country. From countdown videos to holiday-themed projects, Mariah has firmly established her reign as the Queen of Christmas!
