In a holiday season full of joy, laughter, and festive cheer, there’s one moment that has truly captured the spirit of Christmas — and it involves Mariah Carey, Rihanna, and a Sharpie. Yes, you read that right.
On December 17, at the final show of Mariah Carey’s Christmas Time Tour at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, fans were treated to an unexpected and hilarious moment that will go down in holiday history. As Carey performed in front of a packed crowd, Rihanna, seated in the front row with her friend Jason Lee, became the center of a viral, festive spectacle that’s still making waves on social media.
The “Signature Moment”
A video shared by Jason Lee on Instagram shows the excitement of the moment, with Rihanna and Lee eagerly watching Carey descend from the stage. The two joked about asking the pop icon for an autograph, but it wasn’t just any autograph request — Rihanna took it to the next level.
“Should I ask her to sign my shirt or my titty?” Rihanna asked, as if the answer wasn’t already clear. Lee, barely able to contain his laughter, obviously agreed that it was time to make a bold move.
And bold it was. As soon as Mariah Carey spotted Rihanna in the crowd, she walked over to the pop star and, without missing a beat, approached her for what would soon become an iconic exchange. Rihanna, with her signature humor and confidence, presented her left breast for Carey to sign. “I need a signature,” Rihanna said, prompting the request for a Sharpie.
The “Iconic” Moment
In true diva fashion, Carey didn’t hesitate. She took the Sharpie and began to sign her name on Rihanna’s boob — all while the crowd went wild. Rihanna, ever the showwoman, grabbed the microphone and immediately announced to the crowd, “Mariah Carey is signing my tit, y’all.” She even dubbed the moment “iconic,” and we couldn’t agree more.
It’s the kind of playful, spontaneous moment that only these two pop legends could pull off. While some might call it a cheeky act, it’s really just a reflection of the unapologetic, larger-than-life personalities both Mariah Carey and Rihanna have become known for. The two stars, who have often been compared due to their vocal prowess and influence in pop music, shared a moment of pure fun that’s now etched in holiday lore.
The Holiday Moment We Didn’t Know We Needed
As we all know, Mariah Carey has long been the undisputed Queen of Christmas, with her annual holiday tours and timeless classic “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” And while the world may have expected another memorable concert experience, no one could have predicted this. It’s the kind of unexpected, light-hearted moment that embodies the true spirit of the season — joy, laughter, and a touch of irreverence.
So, as we head into the final days of the year, this cheeky interaction between Mariah Carey and Rihanna will surely go down in history as one of the most iconic moments of the holiday season. Let’s just hope this new holiday tradition continues for years to come — who knows what these two will do next?
