Mariah Carey Celebrates Hanukkah By Teaching Twins New Song

Author Laila Abuelhawa
November 29th, 2021 11:11 AM
Mariah Carey lights the Empire State Building in celebration of the 25th anniversary of "All I Want For Christmas Is You" at the Empire State Building on December 17, 2019 in New York City.

Mariah Carey is spreading the holiday spirit — one twin at a time.

The music superstar, 52, commemorated the first night of Hanukkah on Sunday by sharing a sweet video with 10-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe, as she attempted to teach them a new song to mark the Jewish celebration.

In the brief clip, Carey happily serenades her children, while they both look back at their mom unenthusiastically. “Happy Hanukkah!!!! Learned this one in grade school, thought I’d teach it to Roc & Roe, I don’t think they’ve got it yet.”

On December 3, Mariah has a holiday special coming out on AppleTV+, called Mariah’s Christmas: The Magic Continues. In the trailer, Carey can be seen dressed in a sparkly-gold gown as she takes the grand stage to sing “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home).” Her twins, whom she shares with ex-husband Nick Cannon, also make a quick appearance.

The special will also reveal the first and only performance of Carey’s new single “Fall in Love at Christmas,” which she sings with Khalid and Grammy-winning artist Kirk Franklin.

As we earlier reported, the Queen of Christmas was the latest musical star to team up with McDonald's for their Famous Orders campaign. Starting December 13, McDonald’s will be offering the Mariah Menu featuring Carey’s beloved items: from the classic cheeseburger and Big Mac to the soft-baked chocolate chip cookies and signature warm apple pie.

In the spirit of the holiday season, Mariah’s menu is all about giving back, with 12 days of different free goodies for customers who spend $1 or more on the McDonald’s app.

“Yes, darlings, I got my holiday wish this year: my very own menu from one of my absolute faves!” Carey said in a commercial announcing the menu. “We’ve made a list of the food both you and I love, and checked it twice, so save the date — Dec. 13 — I’ll see you at McDonald’s next month!”

GALLERY: Mariah Carey’s Best 10 Songs Ranked

  • 10. “Obsessed”

    Share

    This heavily autotuned diss track was written in response to Eminem’s claims that Carey had dated him.

  • 9. “Don’t Forget About Us”

    Share

    From her 2005 album 'The Emancipation of Mimi,' produced by Jermaine Dupri. Lyrically, the song deals with the emotions that are sometimes felt after the loss of their relationship. Carey explained that the true meaning of the song is left to be interpreted by the listener.

  • 8. “Touch My Body”

    Share

    From Carey's eleventh studio album 'E=MC2,' released in 2008. The song broke the record for the highest opening week download tallies in US chart history.

  • 7. “Get Your Number”

    Share

    Featuring Jermaine Dupri includes a pop and R&B mashup, with an '80s synth influence. The song is built around a sample of 1982's "Just An Illusion" by Imagination.

  • 6. “Always Be My Baby”

    Share

    From her 1995 album 'Daydream,' had us at "doo-doo-doo-dow." Also produced by Jermaine Dupri, the ballad's lyrics describe the sense of attachment Carey still feels towards her former lover. When asked about his experience of working with the singer, Dupri said: “She can pretty much do anything with her voice.”

  • 5. “Shake It Off”

    Share

    For the music video, Carey had to be carried around set because she couldn't walk in her ultra-high heels. Even though they were making her feet bleed, she refused the director's offer to trade them for comfortable slippers because she insisted she couldn't wear flat shoes. "My feet repel them," she laughed.

  • 4. “Hero”

    Share

    This inspirational ballad was made for the 1992 Dustin Hoffman film of the same name.

  • 3. “Emotions”

    Share

    Musically, “Emotions” borrows heavily from Seventies disco to create a winning formula that went on to win her another number one in the US. Carey's vocal range spans more than four octaves on the track, one of the highest notes produced by a human voice in the history of recorded music.

  • 2. “All I Want For Christmas”

    Share

    Christmas means hearing this song everywhere you go. The song sold more than 16 million copies worldwide.

  • 1. “We Belong Together”

    Share

    This was Carey’s big comeback track after a few years out of the spotlight. She said of recording the ballad: “I had the chills. I had a great feeling about it when we finished writing the song, and I was flying back from Atlanta at some crazy hour of the morning... But we were listening to it on the plane ride on the way home, and even from the demo version, I really felt something very special.”
