Mariah’s Christmas song surprise
MARIAH Carey has a lot to celebrate over the holidays, with her song All I Want for Christmas is You finally hitting No.1 on the US Billboard singles chart 25 years after it was originally released as an EP.
To celebrate the milestone, she has released a new music video in which she’s surrounded by dancers in a snowcovered streetscape.
The song is also proving popular on streaming services.
A PARENTING hack has gone viral. Some have called it “brilliant” while others have labelled it “scary”.
Fuki Sato, a mother from Japan, decided the best way to stop her son from crying when she wasn’t around was to create life-size cardboard cut-outs of herself and place them throughout her home.
One cut-out shows Mrs Sato standing up, while the other has her kneeling on the floor smiling.
But her unusual parenting technique has divided the internet when her husband shared a video on Twitter, revealing it calmed their oneyear-old son.
In the footage, Ms Sato puts one of the cutouts at the entrance

With her son oblivious to what’s happening behind him, Mrs Sato then sneaks out of the room and closes the door.
Her husband can be heard laughing as he films the boy’s reaction.
When the toddler turns around, appearing to be searching for his mother, he quickly carries on playing with a big grin on his face after he “sees his mother” in the room.
The video has been viewed 2.1 million times, with some viewers questioning the couple’s parenting decision.
But not everyone against the idea.
