Aspen is a celebrity hot spot this time of year. And among the stars who have flocked to the posh ski destination is Mariah Carey, who was spotted trudging through the snow in Louis Vuitton this Thursday. The 48-year-old walked hand in hand with her seven-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe as her 35-year-old beau Bryan Tanaka trailed behind.
Mariah, who shares her children with her second ex-husband Nick Cannon, had a wide smile on her face when she was glimpsed out in Aspen. Her pal Shawn McDonald revealed on Instagram that evening that the songbird, who recently did a concert tour in Europe, was "on super vocal rest" that day.
She rang in Christmas this year with both Bryan, her backup-dancer-turned-boyfriend, and Nick, whom she separated from in 2014. Other celebrities in Aspen this week include Working Girl star Melanie Griffith, heiress Paris Hilton and Real Housewife Of Beverly Hills Kyle Richards.

Mariah, who according to legend has had a concert rider stipulating she "doesn't do stairs", created a holiday classic with 1994's All I Want For Christmas Is You. The song has such enduring appeal that it achieved a record-breaking 10.8 million Spotify streams in 24 hours this Christmas Eve, the Associated Press reported.
Her latest tour, which began at a massive Norwegian ice rink and ended at Madrid's WiZink Center, is called the All I Want For Christmas Concerts on her website.
Mariah - who split from her billionaire fiancé James Packer in 2016 and according to The Blast won a multi-million-dollar settlement from him last year - is no stranger to a bit of drama when it comes to performances over the holiday season.
The night 2016 ended and 2017 began, she was lip-syncing on Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve With Ryan Seacrest, but was visibly unable to mime the words accurately - because, she claimed, her earpiece gave out.
On the same New Year's special a year later, she groused on air: "I was told there would be tea", sparking such an online sensation that she decided to spin it into a merchandising opportunity and put the sentence on T-shirts.
