Mariah Carey is saving 2020 by bringing an all-new Christmas special to Apple TV+ starting December 4. It will feature guest stars, festive moments, and musical performances. The all-star cast includes Tiffany Haddish, Billy Eichner, and Snoop Dogg. Carey's twins will also make a special appearance.

A festive special is certainly what we all need right now. There are lots of information about the upcoming special that has many fans excited. Here are the five things from the special we're most looking forward to.

5. Tiffany Haddish

One of the big names that got people excited when the special was announced was Tiffany Haddish. When the teaser dropped last weekend, Haddish's role in the special seemed to be revealed. It appears she will play the role of narrator for Carey's Christmas journey!

4. Billy Eichner

Billy Eichner is another big guest star in the special. Last year, Carey did a special Christmas segment on Eichner's show, "Billy On The Street." From the looks of the trailer, it appears Eichner will play an elf.

3. The Soundtrack

In addition to a new special with live performances, Carey is also releasing a full soundtrack. As if the lambs could be any more spoiled in 2020. Carey has released her memoir, a double CD of rarities, and her entire back catalogue on vinyl. Sure, throw in a live holiday album while we're at it!

2. New Version of "Sleigh Ride"

According to the press release announcing the special, Carey will also perform a new version of the Christmas classic, "Sleigh Ride." The catchy tune has been done a lot over the years. However, we can't wait to hear Carey's own unique spin on the song.

1. Collab With Ariana Grande and J-Hud

What is perhaps the most exciting part of the special is her collaboration with Ariana Grande and Jennifer Hudson. The three will all sing a new version of Carey's 2010 Christmas single "Oh Santa!" Buzz of a collaboration started back in October when Carey tweeted an image of three director's chairs with their initials. Now that the partnership is confirmed, fans are speculating this could give Carey her 20th number one song on the Billboard Hot 100. Now that would be the best Christmas gift ever.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
