I love belting out my favorite songs in the car. Good for anxiety, good for the soul! But because I live in the city and use public transportation, I am forced to remain silent. UNTIL… face masks! Now I can put on my headphones, lip sync to my heart’s content, and no one is the wiser. Literally the only positive to the pandemic. But this FedEx driver doesn’t give a shit what anybody thinks. He was filmed busting out an impressively committed lip-sync performance to Mariah Carey’s holiday classic “All I Want For Christmas Is You”. You may say it’s too early, but, for people working for FedEx, UPS, the post office, etc, the holiday season is upon them. Clicky clicky! Shoppy shoppy! The FedEx driver’s video was so popular that Mariah herself responded on social media.
Mimi tweeted:
Please note this is how all my packages must be delivered from now on

By the way, that’s not a joke. That’s a direct order from the Queen of Christmas! The video was posted by another FedEx employee (via New York Post):
“We just have a good ol time,” explained the poster, believed to be named Kayla, in the clip’s comment section. She described how she and her unnamed co-worker had lined their trucks up next to each other for lunch — as they do every day — when she spotted his festive dance routine.
I like how our anonymous hero shakes his chest at “More than you will ever know.” Another highlight is his effortlessly smooth turn and point to the camera. What I’m saying is: this guy’s got IT! And puts Mariah’s dance skills to shame! Not like it’s hard. Zombie Bernie from Weekend At Bernie’s 2 has more energy than Mariah doing choreo:
