A+ VIDEO: “All We Want For Christmas Is You” Lip Sync Dance Party

Welp, it’s a holiday of some significance to some people — maybe you, maybe not you — but regardless, we think you deserve a present. Last time we made you a video, you were pretty into it, so we thought we’d do that again. Thanks for bearing with us through podcast mishaps and one of the weirdest fucking years in the history of humanity.

Sometimes this website focuses on a thing for a time and sometimes that time lasts longer than initially planned, and maybe all the holidays stuff we do can feel like that. But I don’t know, y’all, we just like the spirit of this season. It’s not a religious thing (although it certainly is for many!), it’s a “let’s have fun and give each other things and be extra nice to strangers!” time. It can be a hard time, too, but it wants to be a good time. Against all odds. And damn if we don’t all face some shitty odds sometimes.

This is just to say, really, “happy holidays.” And who better to do so than Mariah Carey, who’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” is definitely on my top five favorite songs of all time, even though it recently appeared in my second-least-favorite movie of all time, but that’s another conversation I’ve probably already had with you.

Starring: Writer (and former Fashion Editor, current med student) Lizz Rubin and her girlfriend Chrissie, Contributing Editor Kate Severance and their girlfriend Aimee, Senior Editor Yvonne Marquez and her girlfriend Gloria, Intern Nikki and her friend Alyssa, Intern Chloe and her friend Mel, Kaylah Wilson, Design Director Alex Vega and her girlfriend Mary, Geekery Editor Ali Osworth, Carmen Rios and her dog Eli, Music Editor Stef Schwartz and her menorah, Modtern Kaylah Wilson, Contributing Editor Laura Mandanas, Contributing Editor Audrey White and Intern Raquel, Contributing Editor Kaitlyn Jakola and her girlfriend Camille, Contributing Editor Hannah Hodson in her animal onesie, Editor-in-Chief Riese and her girlfriend Abby, Contributing Editor Maddie Taterka, Managing Editor Rachel Kincaid, Trans Editor Mey Rude, Editorial Assistant Chelsey and her girlfriend Erin, Podcast Editor Samara Berger, Writer Fikri Alkhatib and her girlfriend Natalie and Contributing Editor Helen McDonald.
