Mariah Carey, 54, and her daughter, Monroe, 12, are spreading holiday cheer one song at a time. 

Last Friday night, Carey (aka the Queen of Christmas) was joined by her 12-year-old daughter on stage to perform a duet at one of the singer’s holiday concerts at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, California. 

In a video posted by Page Six, the mother-daughter duo sang “Jesus Born on This Day,” which is a song featured on Carey’s 1994 holiday album titled Merry Christmas. During the performance, Carey rocked a white gown covered in silver rhinestones with a sheer shawl and a gold crown. Meanwhile, Monroe donned a white ruffled dress with a tiara. 

Included in the footage is a clip of Monroe showing off her guitar skills while rocking out to the song “Christmas Wrapping” while on stage. Like mother, like daughter.

After the show, the “All I Want for Christmas Is You” singer went on Instagram and posted photos taken during the concert.

Along with snaps of the performance, she wrote in the caption, “Night 1 @hollywoodbowl - we made it snow in LA!! [snowflake emojis]. Thank you for such a special night, let’s do it again tomorrow! [Christmas-themed emojis].”

Other celebs made a special appearance at the holiday concert, including Kerry Washington, Nicole Richie, Kris Jenner and more. 

Earlier this month, Carey started her countdown to Christmas by sharing a holiday-themed video on Instagram. In the clip (posted on November 1), the “When Christmas Comes” singer is frozen in a block of ice while people dressed in scary masks are trying to free her with hairdryers. Finally, she emerges from the ice and sings, “It’s tiiiiiiime.”

It looks like Monroe is following in her mother’s footsteps.
