LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Mariah Carey aka "The Queen of Christmas," is all set to perform during the upcoming Billboard Music Awards on Sunday, November 19. 

The 54-year-old superstar will be singing her holiday classic 'All I Want For Christmas Is You', which has earned her over $70 million since its release in 1994, for the first time ever at an awards show, according to Billboard.



 

Debbie Allen, an iconic actress, dancer, and choreographer, will design the production of the song, and the set is supposed to be "festive Aspen-inspired and surprise-filled." 

Rather than having a TV broadcast, the 2023 Billboard Music Awards will be live-streamed on Billboard's official website starting at 8 pm ET and 5 pm PT on Sunday. The performances and awards speeches will also be shared on the organization's social media channels.
