With the holidays just over two months away, Mariah Carey has her legion of fans buzzing over a potential Christmas collaboration. 

On Friday, the five-time Grammy winner shared a photo on Instagram showing three chairs at, what appears to be, a music video set, with three different initials on each of them

The middle seat has ‘MC’ embroidered on the back, which is most likely the initials for Carey, while the other two that read ‘AG’ and ‘JH’ are more of a mystery.

So far Grande, 27, or Hudson, 39, have not shared any hints to a possible collaboration with Carey on their own social media accounts on Friday.

At this point, it’s not known whether Carey’s project is a song, music video, television special or movie.
