Mariah Carey has been getting fans in the holiday spirit with her Merry Christmas One and All! tour going on, and “All I Want for Christmas Is You” hitting No. 1 on the global charts.

Carey has been touring around the country spreading Christmas cheer with her most festive songs, but during her travels, she’s been reading Streisand’s memoir My Name Is Barbra. Her love for the legendary singer came across in an Instagram gallery she posted on Wednesday (Dec. 5), in which she described the memoir as “incredible.”

Eichner also added a sweet dedication to her in the book, writing, “For the Queen of Christmas, a story about the Queen of Hanukkah,” which can be seen in the second photo from the “Touch My Body” singer.

“🎶 Living like Babs cause it’s Evergreen 🎶 Reading the incredible memoir by @barbrastreisand on the tour bus!📕❤️ Thank you for the gift and the fabulous dedication @billyeichner 💋,” Carey captioned her Instagram post.
