Mariah Carey Hilariously Admits Gift Wrapping Is Her ‘Not-So-Superpower’ In Comical Instagram Video

Mariah Carey may rule the airwaves every December, but when it comes to wrapping presents, the Queen of Christmas is far from flawless. On December 19, 2024, the “All I Want for Christmas Is You” singer shared a hilarious Instagram video that gave fans an unexpected peek into her Christmas chaos—specifically, her struggles with gift wrapping.

Sitting comfortably in front of her grand Christmas tree, Carey, 55, tackled the task with all the enthusiasm of someone who’d rather be doing anything else. As she showed off a pair of white faux fur earmuffs with her initials embroidered on them, she quickly confessed to her audience: “This is really, really not my thing.”

And she wasn’t joking.

In her trademark humorous style, Carey made it clear that she’s more than willing to buy the perfect gifts—but don’t expect her to wrap them. “I don’t want to be the one to have to do this,” she sighed, reaching for a large red ribbon. “I’ll buy the gifts, no problem,” she added, half-laughing at her own lack of enthusiasm. “Because I’m not good at it. Not because I think I’m above gift wrapping! No, I am not above gift wrapping!” It was as if the very concept of wrapping presents was a task of mythical proportions—one only for the brave.

The comical saga continued as she fumbled with a pair of scissors. “This is my own freaking paper. Come on, you see this?” she said, her voice tinged with disbelief. “Who is doing this to me?” Carey, clearly overwhelmed by the awkwardly large scissors, struggled with cutting the wrapping paper. But her frustration was palpable—no one ever warned her that this part of the holiday cheer would be quite so, well, frustrating.

The next challenge? The tape. As she tried to seal the paper, it became tangled in her nails, leading Carey to declare that this holiday season’s wrapping project was going nowhere fast. Instead of stressing over the wrinkled paper, she shrugged and turned to her final solution: making the gift look like a giant candy. “Like the candies that people have in their houses,” she explained, clearly deciding that a quirky twist was her best bet.

But even when it came to adding the final touch, the missing bow, Mariah couldn’t catch a break. “It’s already made! See, that’s how people get away with this,” she grumbled as she looked around for the pre-tied bow. Not one to give up easily, Carey attempted to tie another bow, only to lose her patience entirely. “I lost my stamina,” she groaned, calling it quits before the video wrapped.

She captioned the post with her signature sense of humor: “Wrapping gifts is NOT as easy as it looks!! What gifts are you wrapping this year?? 🎁🎄🎁🎄” With her genuine vulnerability and infectious laughter, the video instantly went viral, earning her the title of the most relatable Christmas icon on the internet.

While Carey might not be the go-to expert on gift wrapping, there’s no doubt she’s the ultimate expert on holiday spirit. She’s recently wrapped up her Christmas Time tour, a triumphant return to the stage after battling the flu. The concert, which took place at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on December 17, 2024, featured a blend of beloved Christmas classics and her original hits, including the seasonal anthem “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” which brought the crowd to its feet.

As the holiday season continues to unfold, Mariah Carey’s hilarious gift-wrapping video reminds us all that even the Queen of Christmas is just like the rest of us—struggling with a little holiday chaos, but still managing to spread joy wherever she goes.
