The Queen of Christmas got an early gift this year courtesy of Guinness World Records.
During her holiday concert in Las Vegas over the weekend, Mariah Carey was presented with a record-breaking title certificate for her Christmas classic “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” as well as a copy of the Guinness World Records 2020 edition.
The song recently broke the record for highest-charting holiday (Christmas/New Year) song on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart by a solo artist. It also earned the title for most streamed track on Spotify in 24 hours (female) and most weeks in the U.K. singles top 10 chart for a Christmas song.
This year marks the 25th anniversary of Mariah’s holiday album, Merry Christmas. Mariah’s All I Want for Christmas Is You tour finishes up its Las Vegas run on November 30 and picks up again on the East Coast December 7.
