American RnB singer Mariah Carey has paid a surprise house visit to two lucky admirers who happen to be the president and vice president of the United States of America.

In an Instagram post on Wednesday,  the singer mentioned that she recently stopped by the White House in Washington, D.C., to meet with President Joe Biden and his deputy, Vice President Kamala Harris. She also took along her 12-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe who also got to visit the Oval Office and speak with the nation’s leaders.

Mariah Carey posed for photographs with both Biden and Harris, as well as with her children, in front of the White House’s magnificent Christmas decorations while there.

“Last week I had the pleasure of meeting President Biden & Vice President Harris at the White House to ring in the holiday season!” the singer captioned the pictures, which the White House also shared on its official account. “While there, we got to see all the festive decor and spread some cheer! 🎄❄️☃️”, the O Holy Night posted on Instagram.

Later, Carey and the president shared a video of their first meeting, in which they each said “I’m a fan” to each other while shaking hands.

The singer is coming off the conclusion of her Merry Christmas One and All! Tour, which concluded with a spectacular performance at New York City’s Madison Square Garden. Jennifer Hudson and Ariana Grande joined Carey onstage to perform “Oh Santa!,” the trio’s first live performance of the remix since it was released in 2020.

Carey also just celebrated her 13th week at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 with her perennial holiday song “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” Earlier this week, the song achieved a record-breaking 16th week at the top of the Billboard Global 200.
