By now most of us should be pretty used to Mariah Carey posting a sexy holiday photo of herself.

Because if you remember, she posted one around Christmas time, wearing only a robe and some red undies, and she was standing in front of the Christmas tree posing as a human gift for her husband Nick Cannon.

Then on Valentine’s Day she posted two more sexy photos. One was of the singer posing seductively inside a bathtub filled with balloons, and in the other she was standing up in that bathtub, only to reveal a bra that looked like it was made out of candy.

So it’s no surprise that she posted a sexy pic for St. Patrick’s Day, because by now most of her fans and her husband Nick probably expect it.

This time around the 43 year old posted a photo of herself wearing what else? A green bikini of course, and obviously it had to be extremely itty-bitty– because that’s just Carey’s style.

Fortunately for her male fans–and for some of her female fans too–Carey posted two photos. One is a collage of sorts and shows three different pictures of the singer, and in the other photo Carey is standing on a boat wearing the same tiny green bikini.

She also got a tattoo of a shamrock on her chest, but it’s not real said the singer. “Happy St. Paddy’s,” wrote the part-time actress on one of the photos. “Shamrock not permanent. Just for laughs.”

In a 2013 interview, Carey said she worked hard to get her body back after having twins, and afterwards she felt completely beautiful and like her old self again.

“I gained an enormous amount of weight,” she said. “It was a huge blessing to be able to have the babies, but I felt trapped in my body because I couldn’t move…..I’m proud of how hard I worked to get my body back…I had to do this for me.”
