Taking place between December 21 and 24, from 7pm ET (12am GMT) each night, Mariah will belt out hits old and new and wrap up the set with a special performance of ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’.

The 52-year-old music icon said in a statement: “Christmas is my absolute favourite time of the year!

She told W magazine: “Little Mariah is a mixed-race girl with no money and no one to come do her hair. She’s like Pippi Longstocking or Harriet the Spy, but she’s biracial.

“A lot of people who are my actual fans feel that they are ‘other’, whether they’re white, black, brown, whatever it is — you know, any race, creed, or colour. If you feel ‘other’, it’s just a different thing.”
