Mariah Carey Declares ‘It’s Time’ for Christmas 2026 With Holiday Campaign — and Another Grunge Album Tease
The Queen of Christmas has spoken!
Mariah Carey has announced that it is now time for the Christmas season, with a new PSA video marking the occasion. This year, the artist has teamed up with a major fashion house for a festive campaign. Carey also teased the release of her long-awaited shelved grunge album, "Hermit," which was initially recorded while she worked on her 1995 album, Daydream.
In a nod to the grunge album, Carey appeared in a punk-inspired performance in a New York City dive bar during the PSA video, before transitioning to a more traditional Christmas celebration. Carey's collaboration with Gucci was also highlighted, as she made a grand entrance at a glamorous holiday party soundtracked by her iconic song, "All I Want for Christmas Is You."
