Get ready to deck the halls, Mimi-style! Last year, Mattel debuted the official Mariah Carey Barbie doll to celebrate the Queen of Christmas this holiday season. The doll is back in stock for a limited time, Mattel announced on Friday (Oct. 25).
The Mariah Carey Barbie was first released in November 2023 and is currently available via Amazon, Walmart, Target and Mattel Shop. Capturing Carey’s “signature flair and dazzling style,” the doll wears a glittery, trumpet gown with matching red heels. The festive, red dress features ruched overlay with a dramatic slit and sparkly silvery jewelry. The doll also holds a silver microphone and wears a tiny replica of Carey’s butterfly ring.
Getting her own Barbie doll is a dream come true, Carey excitedly shared in a statement last year. “It’s a once-in-a-lifetime dream to have my own Barbie! If I could go back and tell my little girl self that one day, I would have a Barbie made in my likeness, I think she would flip out! I hope all collectors and fans everywhere enjoy the holiday season and hopefully the Mariah Barbie will be a wonderful addition to it!”
The Mariah Carey Barbie retails for $75 and on sale for up to $20 off at Walmart and Amazon while supplies last.
Carey’s Barbie release coincided with last year’s Merry Christmas One and All Tour. Next month, the “All I Want for Christmas” superstar will hit the road for the Christmas Time Tour launching Nov. 6 at the Yaamava’ Casino in Highland, Calif.
The holiday season is just gearing up and it’s been a busy time for Carey, who starred in holiday campaigns for Victoria’s Secret and The Children’s Place and released a line of holiday merchandise through her Amazon Merch Shop last year.
Carey isn’t the only music legend to get the Barbie treatment. Mattel has released Barbie dolls of several music icons including Stevie Nicks, Tina Turner and Gloria Estefan.
