Mariah Carey records Christmas song with mom

Mariah Carey has revealed that she is recording a Christmas song with her mother.

The Hero hitmaker is excited about teaming up with her mom who is a former opera singer.

"I'm going to record another Christmas song, with my mother. I'm going to sing in my style, and she is going to sing operatic, which is her style," the Daily Express quoted her as telling gossip columnist Liz Smith.

In 1994, Carey's single All I Want for Christmas Is You was a big hit in the festive season.
