It’s finally here! After a long year full of politics, activism, scandal, heartbreak, and courage, 2018 has at last arrived, and our hopes for the new year are high (particularly after that standout NYE performance from one Miss Mariah Carey)! Celebrities were right there with us last night, celebrating the close of one chapter and the beginning of another as we said goodbye to 2017 forever. Scroll through to see how your favorite stars rang in 2018.
