Mariah Carey Expresses Gratitude As 'All I Want For Christmas' Hits 1B Spotify Streams
Mariah Carey is in a holiday mood as her 1994 holiday anthem, "All I Want For Christmas Is You," hit one billion streams on Spotify.
"Thank you @spotify, the #lambily and everyone who streams this song to add a little bit of festivity to the season! I truly appreciate each and every one of these 1 billion streams!," the "Queen of Christmas" said in an Instagram post as she posed with her commemorative plaque in a glamorous metallic puffer coat, sparkling silver and black beanie, sheer black leggings and black boots.
"All I Want For Christmas" also returned to the No. 1 spot on Billboard Hot 100 chart.
With a total of 49 weeks on the chart, the holiday track has taken the chart's summit three different times, Billboard said. This makes Carey the first artist to land the same song at No. 1 on a Billboard chart three separate times.
Carey is currently on her annual December vacation to Aspen, Colorado, with her children and her boyfriend, Bryan Tanaka.
The 52-year-old singer shared a video of her and her 10-year-old twins – Monroe and Moroccan – engaging in a special holiday tradition Tuesday.
"So we're about to do an Aspen tradition that we love to do," she said as she stepped out of a hot tub in a black wetsuit. "And the kids have grown to love it. And we're going to roll in the snow."
Carey and her twins rolled around in the snow before running back to the tub to warm up.
The "Fantasy" singer also shared a video the same day of her singing the famous tune, along with her children as their two dogs barked and howled in the background.
Fans and friends trooped to the comments section and gave their approval to the group performance.
"YOU!!! So beautiful," Kris Jenner wrote. "Love thissss Sis," actress Holly Robinson Peete said.
Carey recently teamed up with McDonald's for its Mariah Menu, which gives fans free treats when they order on the fast-food company's mobile app through Christmas Eve. Ten thousand fans received limited edition Mariah x McDonald's t-shirts earlier this week as part of the promo, Billboard said.
