Mariah Carey, the self-proclaimed Queen of Christmas, brought some festive energy to the 2023 Billboard Music Awards.

While walking the red carpet at the major awards show, Carey, 54, posed for photographers while wearing a teeny white dress that was reminiscent of a figure skating ensemble. The look featured a silver bedazzled trim, as well as fuzzy cuffs along the long sleeves.

Carey paired the outfit with matching white tights and knee-high boots. She rounded out the whole outfit by wearing her hair in a fun, half-up-half-down 'do that showed off her light locks.

We can't say we're surprised by Carey's wintry ensemble, as the hitmaker attended the annual Billboard Music Awards as one of the night's big performers. In fact, heading into the evening, Carey was set to perform her iconic Christmas classic, "All I Want for Christmas Is You," at an awards show for the first time.

Additionally, Carey is currently in the midst of a holiday tour, titled Merry Christmas One and All!, where the chart-topper performs an array of festive tunes—including "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town," "Silent Night" and "Joy to the World."

It's said the Grammy winner also performs some of her fan-favorite hits, such as "Always Be My Baby," "Hero" and "It's a Wrap."

Of course, Carey wasn't the only A-lister set to perform for the Billboard Music Awards, as David Guetta and Bebe Rexha, Karol G, NewJeans, Morgan Wallen, Peso Pluma, Stray Kids and Tate McRae were all confirmed on the lineup.
