Mariah Carey has continued to cement her status as the Queen of Christmas by starring in a sweet new campaign – and this time it’s a family affair with her twins, Monroe and Moroccan joining in the festive fun.
In a wholesome video advertising the new Holiday collection from The Children’s Place, the trio take part in classic holiday activities that are reminiscent of Mariah’s All I Want For Christmas Is You music video – which saw the star decorating a Christmas tree, playing with wrapped presents and reveling in a snowy landscape.
It marks the twins first-ever debut in a joint campaign.
The clip sees the superstar singer walking towards the camera in a custom-made red dress as her classic 1994 track starts playing in the background.

Mariah then returns to the snowy landscape as she is heard stating: ‘Make your holiday iconic. Shop matching family looks at the place to be this season, The Children’s Place. Happy holidays!’
Speaking about the campaign, Mariah said: ‘The holidays are all about family – spending time with each other and making memories that will last a lifetime.
‘Holiday traditions are big for us at the Carey house. There is nothing sweeter than baking Christmas cookies and cuddling around the fireplace and matching in The Children’s Place pajamas together!’
She continued: ‘I’ve always been a fan of The Children’s Place… they are a household name and dominate the children’s apparel space.

Since it’s release in 1994, All I Want For Christmas Is You has gone on to break chart records year after year, surging in popularity every time the Christmas season kicks off.
Back in April, Mariah was given a very early Christmas present when her hit was added to the Library of Congress’ National Recording Registry.
The beloved song was among 25 tracks added to the registry, including other hits including Madonna‘s Like a Virgin, Queen Latifah’s All Hail the Queen album and Daddy Yankee’s 2004 smash hit Gasolina.
At the time, Mariah shared the news with her millions of followers on social media, and discussed the song’s origins in a video.

‘I’m honored beyond belief! I definitely did not even imagine this would happen when writing and recording this song! Thank you so much Ms. Hayden and the @librarycongress,’ she said in her tweet.
She also included a video of her from a conference with Library of Congress Chief Communications Officer Roswell Encina.
‘Thank you so much, this is incredible. I never would have thought this was going to happen when I first wrote All I Want For Christmas Is You,’ she began.
‘Everybody always asked, “Did you know this was gonna be a thing?” and the answer is no. This is major and this is so gratifying to me as an artist, as a songwriter, of course.
‘I had no idea. I just wrote from my heart. Thank you so much for including me in this incredible company.’
