Mariah Carey is set to make her directorial debut later this year as Hallmark Channel announces Mariah Carey's Christmas Project which is expected to premiere this December. Following Hallmark Channel's announcement, Mariah Carey quickly shared the news with her fans via her Twitter profile: "Can’t wait to share my directorial debut with my #lambs #lambily on the @hallmarkchannel! #ohsanta" Rumors of Carey preparing a Christmas-themed movie started in April, and Brett Ratner, best known for his Rush Hour movie, was rumored to be part of the project, most likely as a producer. Considering the fact that Ratner has already directed multiple Mariah Carey music videos, the rumors came as no surprise to the fans. The duo has had a fruitful and
Again, last year's Hallmark Christmas movies definitely introduced me to some incredible talent, and Mélanie St-Pierre happens to be one of those new faces (at least, new to me). I first saw her as Samantha Cross in Christmas Encore, and after requesting an interview, I discovered so much more about her and her solid body of work. Yet again, I have the honor of sharing a lovely, vibrant, gifted woman with all of my readers!
Yes, Terry Ingram was the director on that one, too. They called me up because they needed somebody to take over this role. It was one day of work, and it was fun. That's just usual when I'm working with Hallmark and

"It's funny, a friend of mine was producing it, he called me up and he said, "Lori, I need your help. I want to try to sell this into a series." There are people at Hallmark who I love, like Bill Abbott, the president. I have a fan in Bill and I'm so thankful for that. This producer knew that. He was like, "I want to put you in this show because I need a name to help me sell it into a series. If it goes into a series, you can have the option of being a part of it." I went in and I worked the show for literally one day, and then it went to series."
The title of the musical movie is no other than The Christmasaurus. Tom Fletcher is the best-selling author of this one of a kind Christmas novel and may turn it into a musical movie like no other. He said that writing a novel alone isn't enough for him to showcase his masterpiece. This is why he wanted his novel to turn into a Christmas musical movie. Not only that, he's going to be the one who writes all of the songs in this movie. This is going to be pretty fantastic for his fans out there. He wants his novel to be epic when the movie comes out.

He would make a great love interest. What do you hope is in store for your character (Andrea) in the next “Murder She Baked”
For most people, their fashion choices are solely based on the latest trends. The artists on this list aren't afraid to push the fashion envelope, and their style is representative of who they are. All of these talented artists are creative and eccentric, and it helped put them in the "fashion icons" conversation.
What is the true definition of cool? I personally feel there is no precise definition of the word “cool”. Everyone has their own distinct definition for the word. My definition of the word cool is someone who puts their own unique stamp on whatever they do. A person that loves themselves and the skin that they are in apologetically. The icon that represents my definition of cool is Robyn Fenty, better known as Rihanna.
Some artist that sung their own version to the song include The Jackson 5, Alice Cooper, Bruce Springsteen, Justin Bieber, and Laura Pausini. Justin Bieber’s version became a hit for his fanbase consisting of 5 to 15 year olds, which made the younger generation appreciate the song and solidified the popularity of the song. The most played version on the radio and the most downloaded is Bruce Springsteen’s version. The song has been mixed with other festive holiday songs, which include “Santa Claus is Coming to Town/ Jingle Bells (2014) and Frosty the Snowman/ Santa Claus is Coming to Town (2017). The song became so popular that there was an animated version on television created in 1970. Rankin Bass animated the Santa Claus’ Story based on the song “Santa Claus is Coming to Town” to expand the story of the song. It is also used by other motion pictures to increase its popularity, for example, it was in the movie Elf by New Line Cinema. In the movie the song was sung by a crowd of people in order to save Christmas by making everyone believe. This made the song “Santa Claus is Coming to Town” continue to be popular as it was used as the reason why Christmas is the way that it is. The song would be in the public domain as 80 years has passed since the song was created, however Coot’s daughter, Gloria Coots Baldwin, and his granddaughters are responsible for the decisions of the song’s use. Coots and Gillespie made a deal with a
Two music videos were commissioned for the song: the song's primary music video features grainy home-movie-style footage of Carey, her dogs and family during the holiday season, as well as Carey dressed in a Santa suit frolicking on a snowy mountainside. Carey's then-husband Tommy Mottola makes a cameo appearance as Santa Claus, bringing Carey a gift and leaving on a red sleigh. The second video was filmed in black and white format, and features Carey dressed in 1960s style in homage to The Ronettes, alongside back up singers and female dancers. Carey has performed "All I Want for Christmas Is You" in numerous live television appearances and
They’re hiring Santa to come, on a makeshift sled no less, so that Saint and Nori can have their first Christmas photos taken together. Kanye thinks dressing them in matching elf outfits would be so cute. Kim, on the other hand, would prefer them to wear regular clothing for the photos. They’ll likely do both. More importantly, they’re both elated that they will be celebrating Christmas with their two children. It’s really a dream come true for Kim and Kanye.
