Forget Santa, because Mariah Carey is fast becoming most synonymous with mainstream Christmas.

Building on the annual revival of her classic smash ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You,’ Mimi has parlayed her affiliation with the holiday into big business.
Indeed in recent years she’s established a yearly festive concert series, released a Christmas movie, and issued a sequel to her mega-selling Xmas LP.

Now, she’s made a triumphant return to James Corden’s Carpool Karaoke for a sing-a-long like no other. All in the name of…you guess it…Christmas.
