In a festive kickoff that has left listeners buzzing, Heart Breakfast initiated the holiday season this morning with a dazzling celebration, featuring an unforgettable surprise appearance by the legendary Mariah Carey.
The excitement unfolded when listener Rachel, a veterinary nurse hailing from Sunderland, participated in a Christmas-themed quiz on the live show. Successfully answering all five questions, she unlocked an hour filled with non-stop holiday music, prompting a flurry of confetti to cascade through the studio. Hosts Amanda Holden and Jamie Theakston couldn’t contain their enthusiasm, erupting into cheers along with a life-sized reindeer and a generous sprinkle of tinsel.
As Amanda proclaimed, “The nation is waiting for us,” the quiz commenced. Rachel showcased her holiday spirit and knowledge, breezing through the questions with confidence. The pivotal moment arrived when she perfectly answered the final question, “It’s beginning to look a lot like?” with “Christmas!” This milestone ignited jubilant screams and laughter, encapsulating the essence of festive joy.
But the day held further surprises. Just when Amanda thought the celebrations couldn’t get any better, a voice note from the “queen of Christmas,” Mariah Carey, rang out in the studio. The message, which excitedly declared, “Hey, Amanda! It’s Mariah, and it’s officially Christmas on Heart. It’s time!” set the stage for the iconic track “All I Want For Christmas Is You” to start playing, bringing the Christmas spirit to life.
