The Queen of Christmas, Mariah Carey, turned 54 today. As unique as she is, the five-time Grammy Award winner doesn’t celebrate her birthday as a day she grows older, but as the day she was born. Correspondingly, as Mariah Carey has done since she turned 47, she celebrated her 54th birthday as her ‘anniversary.’

With 5 Grammy Awards, 19 World Music Awards, 10 American Music Awards, and 15 Billboard Music Awards, Mariah Carey’s fanbase stretches beyond countries. Consequently, on her 54th anniversary, wishes came in from far and wide, leaving the Queen of Christmas emotional and with a heart warm.
