Mariah Carey to perform ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’ before NFL’s Christmas games
Mariah Carey is set to perform ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’ to kick off the NFL’s Christmas-day games on Netflix – find out more below.
The performance was announced by Netflix, who shared a new ‘NFL Christmas Gameday’ clip, in which Mariah confirms her attendance: “This Christmas we all get our wish. The NFL is live on Netflix, and I’ll be there too.”
Per a Rolling Stone report, the performance will see Mariah Carey perform her Christmas hit ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’ prior to the start of the two games on Christmas Day.
Rolling Stone reports that Mariah Carey’s performance will be pre-recorded and will be broadcast before the 1pm ET match between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the 4:30pm ET match between the Houston Texans and Baltimore Ravens.
After the second quarter of the Houston Texans and Baltimore Ravens game, Beyoncé will hit the field for the Christmas-day Halftime Show, where Netflix has previously confirmed she will perform songs off ‘Cowboy Carter’ live for the first time. Beyoncé’s publicist has also recently shot down rumours that her performance will run for over 20 minutes.
Upon its release on October 29 1994, ‘All I Want For Christmas’ was an instant hit, landing the Number Six spot on the Billboard Hot Adult Contemporary chart in the United States and Number Two in the United Kingdom and Japan.
The track annually re-enters charts worldwide in the weeks leading up to Christmas. It has also reached Number One in over 30 countries. The single has also made history for the gap between release and reaching number one in both the United States and the United Kingdom, 25 and 26 years respectively.
‘All I Want For Christmas’ has officially been certified 16× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), claiming its status as the highest-certified single ever by a female artist.
On what the success of the holiday single and album means to her, Carey told NME in 2021: “It means that someone smarter than myself suggested I do a Christmas album as a young, young girl and I was like: ‘Hmmm – doesn’t that happen later in life?’” she said, laughing. “And then I said, ‘But you know what? I love Christmas!’.”
In other news, a judge has recently said she is inclined to dismiss a copyright lawsuit brought against Carey over ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’. Earlier this month (December 4), Carey issued a video message to her top fans via Spotify Wrapped – the clip received criticism for fans who believed her likeness was AI-generated. She responded to the comments, tweeting: “Bad lighting and a red lip have you all thinking this is AI??”.
