32 years ago, Mariah Carey released “All I Want for Christmas Is You.”
It took 25 years to hit #1 in the US and 26 in the UK (the longest gap ever), spent 22 non-consecutive weeks at #1 on the Hot 100, and remains the best-selling Christmas song in America.

In 1991, Patrick Stewart surprised Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry with a special birthday performance aboard the USS Enterprise-D. Dressed as Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Stewart sang his way through the alphabet, delivering playful lines of praise while dancing across the iconic Star Trek: The Next Generation bridge.
Originally filmed as a private tribute during the show’s fifth season, the footage wasn’t intended for public viewing. Years later, it resurfaced as a bonus feature on the Season 5 DVD, giving fans a rare look at Stewart’s playful personality and the cast’s appreciation for the man who created Star Trek.
