Justin Bieber kicked off the “Christmas in Rockerfeller Center” in New York City with his slow-jam “The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire)” from his album “Under The Mistletoe.” Justin’s voice sounded amazing as he rocked the stage friend and mentor, Usher, who is featured on the song.

Justin Bieber’s Christmas Secret Shopper Is His Mom

But the big Bieber event of the night was his premiere of the music video with Mariah Carey for the famous holiday song, “All I want for Christmas is You.” In the video, Mariah showed off her signature sexy dance moves in an even sexier Santa costume.  As Mariah is dancing the holidays away, Justin and some friends walk by the mysterious Santa dancer, as they push their shopping carts in a department store, where the video is filmed. Justin then stands in the middle of the store to start belting out his chorus of the song.

Meanwhile, a Santa Claus is outside of the store handing out gold envelopes to shoppers walking by. We then see them later getting brought into the store with Justin and Mariah, where Justin then begins handing each person a Christmas present.

The video ends with Justin and Mariah together in a sleigh, laughing, smiling, and being jolly. Overall, Justin and Mariah did a great job of getting us in the holiday spirit with this fun and happy video. What do you think of the video?

Ryan Seacrest has played Santa once again during today’s KIISmas Giving wish which allows ‘On Air With Ryan Seacrest‘ to donate money and gifts to families in need.

Ryan Seacrest Surprises Struggling Teacher With Mortgage Money [AUDIO]

Jessica from Whittier says that as Christmas is approaching, she is worried that her might not make be able to be with her and their three children. Her 10-year old son would love nothing more than for his Dad to be home with them for the holidays. He also dreams about having a Nintendo 3DS. Her daughter, also 10, dreams of having a good pair of shoes, such as Uggs or Toms.

Check out the letter Jessica wrote in to the ‘On Air With Ryan Seacrest’ staff:

This has been a rough year for my family. My husband is currently out of the country for immigration reasons. In order for him to be legal residencey and part of homeland security, they make him exit the US and he has to stay put until he is granted re-entry. We were told it would take 6-8 weeks, but now that Christmas is approaching, I’m starting to worry a little bit.

We have three wonderful kids. I’ve got my twins, Adrian and Arrianna, they’re 10. My other son, Aidan, is 5 months. With going back ot being a single mom on single income, and paying the bills I feel very overwhelmed. I’ve had to cut back on so many things, I just don’t know what Christmas I can provide my kids.

My sons’ dream is to have his Dad back, and also a Nintendo 3DS. My Daughter asks for simpler things like a pair of Toms and a pair of Uggs or a Hello Kitty bedspread.

If there is anything your radio station can help with would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much,

Jessica
