Mariah Carey returns to Apple TV+ for new holiday special

Apple TV+ has announced that Mariah Carey is starring in a new Christmas special, which will include the "first and only" performance of her new single.

Following 2020's "Mariah Carey's Magical Christmas Special" — and its enormous success — Apple has brought the singer back for a second holiday event. "Mariah's Christmas: The Magic Continues," will debut in December on Apple TV+ worldwide.

"The holidays are officially here as Apple and Mariah Carey today announced the Queen of Christmas' return to Apple TV+ with an all-new holiday event," said Apple in an announcement, "to sprinkle more magic around the world, and set to debut globally in December."

"'Mariah's Christmas: The Magic Continues'," it continued, "will bring multi-platinum, multi-Grammy Award-winning icon Carey together with Grammy-nominated worldwide artist Khalid and Grammy winning legend Kirk Franklin for the first and only performance of their new single, 'Fall in Love at Christmas,' on Apple TV+."

Apple TV+ will also be streaming the previous "Mariah Carey's Magical Christmas Special," which, it says, "continues to bring holiday cheer around the world."

Apple has not revealed when in December the show will start streaming, but the single itself debuts on November 5. Carey's 2020's special debuted on December 4.
