Recent rumors surfacing in the Fortnite community have sparked excitement with the potential addition of Christmas icon Mariah Carey to the game. According to trusted leaker iFireMonkey, the singer is expected to join the Winterfest event lineup, dazzling players in her signature red velvet and white fur-trimmed bodysuit from the “All I Want For Christmas Is You” music video. In addition, it seems Snoop Dogg and Shaquille O’Neal might also be embracing the holiday spirit with their own Santa-themed skins.
Adding Mariah Carey to Fortnite seems like a timely decision, as her Christmas hit becomes nearly omnipresent each holiday season. There’s even buzz about her character making a grand entrance by emerging from an ice block on the game map, potentially nodding to a humorous clip from her YouTube channel where she’s depicted as being encased in ice until the winter season arrives.
Fans of Mariah’s spectacular vocal talents are left wondering if she’ll grace us with her iconic “it’s time” whistle note when she makes her icy debut. Here’s to hoping!
