‘It’s not time,’ the now-destroyed jack-o’-lanterns said.<\/b>
\nHalloween has come and gone, which means one thing: To the chagrin of many, it is time for Christmas music to make its perhaps-premature annual return. That means we\u2019re about to start seeing a lot more of Mariah Carey, who went ahead and introduced the holiday music season with a funny video. In it, she pokes fun at just how soon Christmas music comes back every year. The video starts with Carey wielding a red-and-white-striped baseball bat as creepy music plays. She comes upon a trio of pumpkins that combine to read, \u201cIt\u2019s not time.\u201d Carey then smashes them with her bat and revels in the destroyed gourds as her timeless classic \u201cAll I Want For Christmas Is You\u201d plays. The video ends with a screen that says, \u201cIt\u2019s time!!! To smash that pumpkin and treat it as pie\u2026 cause we still gotta get through Thanksgiving!!!\u201d Ready? Let\u2019s go! ????\u27a1\ufe0f???? #MariahSZN pic.twitter.com\/cEaFrRBHwJ Mariah Carey (@MariahCarey) November 1,2021 It also appears Carey has something happening this Friday: A super-quick shot from the video features a wrapped box that says \u201c11\/5\u201d on it, suggesting that something is going down on November 5. Last year saw a commercial peak for Christmas music. One week in particular was especially packed: Carey\u2019s holiday hit was No.1 and there was only one non-Christmas song in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart.<\/p>\n
