Mariah Carey wears Santa Claus lingerie to celebrate Christmas

Posted Nov 14 via Celebitchy Nov 14, 08

With the holidays being upon us, it's hard not to ask the obvious question: what do celebs wear for their seasonal lingerie? Well if the rest of them are anything like Mariah Carey, they shun the traditional red bra/green panties combination and head right to the most erotic of all: Santa Claus lingerie. And who could blame her - is there anyone sexier than Santa? Anything so arousing as fleece? Or the scent of half-eaten chocolate chip cookies mixed with wet reindeer hair? Obviously not. Which is why Mariah really knows how to sex up Christmas.

How does Mariah Carey plan to make the season bright for hubby of six months Nick Cannon?

'I always get Santa lingerie, even if nobody sees it,' the singer, 39, tells Redbook' for its December issue. 'But this year it will be appreciated!'

Stripping down for the holidays is apparently a Carey holiday tradition.

'[My girlfriends and I] go in the hot tub in our Christmas bikinis, then roll in the fresh snow and jump back in,' says the songbird, who usually opts for 'a red bikini with a Santa hat.'

But that doesn't mean she isn't excited about starting her own sweet traditions with Cannon.

'I'm really looking forward to being in love on Christmas,' she says. 'The holidays are always great, but being in love … is going to be the icing on the cake.'

I'm going to sound quite stupid here, but I had no idea there was such a thing as a Christmas bikini. A Christmas dress, yes. Bathing suits? No. Something tells me Mariah's Christmas bikini is just a wet version of her Santa Claus lingerie. And what's with the rolling in the snow? That's cute when a kid does it. When a grown woman - in a festive bikini, no less - does it, it's sort of... bizarre. I realize Mariah's trying to sound arousing or whatever, but it just strikes me as trying too hard. And very, very chilly.

No matter what, Nick Cannon is going to be one lucky man come Christmas Eve. Mariah will definitely put the ho in Santa's chuckle.
