Thanksgiving? I don't know her.

Mariah Carey, pop legend and official authority on all things Christmas-related, announced with a video on Twitter the start of Christmas season.

As the clock on her phone strikes 12:01 a.m. on Nov. 1, Carey gets an incoming call from none other than Santa Claus himself.

"It's time," she sings in perfect vibrato before segueing into a glass-shattering cheer.

Carey's holiday album, "Merry Christmas," which came out in 1994, was a cultural phenomenon and has since dominated the Christmas landscape. Carey has fully embraced her title as Christmas queen in recent years, returning each holiday to remind us to be festive.

But while some of us are enjoying reining in the holiday season, others have been quick to shut that energy down, probably because of that other holiday that happens in November or something.

The age-old debate has been reignited: When is the right time to start celebrating Christmas? It's Mariah Carey and the Lambily (her fans) versus the Thanksgiving traditionalists. Which side of the fence do you fall on? I've chosen mine. See you on the battlefield.
