For many, Mariah Carey is the undisputed Queen of Christmas.
Indeed, for decades, Mimi has dominated the holiday season with her chart-topping smash ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’ and embarked on many an activation to celebrate the festive frame.
It’ll come as little surprise to most, then, that the diva has filed a trademark for the ownership rights of “Queen of Christmas.”
However, Carey is now facing opposition from the likes of Darlene Love and other singers with holiday hits.
Full story below…
While the superstar didn’t announce the filing herself, the move was revealed by Love – who sings ‘Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)‘ in a Facebook post:
“Is it true that Mariah Carey trade marked “Queen of Christmas”?What does that mean that I can’t use that title?
David Letterman officially declared me the Queen of Christmas 29 years ago, a year before she released ”All I want For Christmas Is You” and at 81 years of age I’m NOT changing anything. I’ve been in the business for 52 years, have earned it and can still hit those notes!
If Mariah has a problem call David or my lawyer!!
“
Caroler Elizabeth Chan has formally motioned to oppose Carey’s filing. Word is that Love’s remarks are actually in response to finding out Chan was moving to block Mimi’s ownership attempt.
Speaking to Variety, Chan said:
“Christmas has come way before any of us on earth, and hopefully will be around way after any of us on earth.
And I feel very strongly that no one person should hold onto anything around Christmas or monopolize it in the way that Mariah seeks to in perpetuity. That’s just not the right thing to do. Christmas is for everyone. It’s meant to be shared; it’s not meant to be owned.
And it’s not just about the music business. She’s trying to trademark this in every imaginable way — clothing, liquor products, masks, dog collars — it’s all over the map. If you knit a ‘queen of Christmas’ sweater, you should be able to sell it on Etsy to somebody else so they can buy it for their grandma. It’s crazy — it would have that breadth of registration.”
Which side are you on?!
Queen Mariah! Yaaaaaaaaaaas! 💯
Celine is the real queen and she can still sing today b****
And she’s an ugly old horse-looking h** witch with a saggy neck, b****!
Billboard 200: #3(-2) @Beyonce, RENAISSANCE 89,000 (421,000 units since release). *peak: #1*
89,000 😂😂😂😂😂😂 falling off already
Still neatly Gold in two weeks! YOU LOSE! lmaoooooooooo! 🤣 Get back to me when H******** B can drop even a SECOND album. Let alone SEVEN back-to-back #1 studio albums. You KEEP TRYING IT! And failing 💋
*nearly GOLD
LOL not even 250K pure sales yet. I’d say she fell off lol 🤣
She fell off Adele did gold in 4 days she such a queen couldn’t hold onto number 1 more then a week Bad Bunny came out months ago and still number 1 Beyoncé who 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
Let me i or when Beyoncé can get 4 diamond singles 👋🏽
That’s a real Queen 🙌 she’s not even a soprano and look what she did with these high notes all along her career 💪🤳I have so much respect for her
I’m talking about MC of course, I don’t even know who this old jealous woman is.
MC not a soprano? She’s a light-lyric coloratura soprano.
He’s as dumb as rocks.
“I can STILL hit those notes” the shade😭😭😭😭😭
Mariah sings her under the table on her worst day, let’s not please be delusional.
Her version is even better than Darlene’s only hit, that really must suck.
The delusion. Mariah hasn’t been able to sing with that struggle voice since 1996. Darlene slays her fat alcoholic ass lmaooo. What would a Rihfatnna stan know about talent anyway!?
Exactly this 💯
She may still can hit those notes but Mariah hit them without being a soprano + she’s n°1 every christmas. That old woman is just jealous and envious 😅 it’s clearly obvious

You are the one obsessed with me, look at you hating on my comment, asking me about my sexuality when I don’t give a damn about yours 👀 talking about me on others comments almost on every page, impersonating my account, playing all these scenarios, do you dream about me?
🤡
Ma’am when your Christmas hit goes #1 after 20+ years then we can have that discussion. MC has been synonymous with Christmas over the last 20+ years.
No one thinks Christmas, and then thinks of you. Also people still sell items with those sayings. No one is worried about their Etsy store.
That’s the point dumb ass. They wouldn’t be able to sell anything with “Queen of Christmas” if it was trademarked. You are so dumb!
You’re an idiot. Independent sellers would continue to do so. That’s more for mega corporations. Like H&M, Target etc. You think MC is worried about Etsy seller?! Laughable.
Yes her team would be! It happens all the time
Dumb ass. You cannot receive money from anyones trademarked work period! Just say you’re clueless and go!
EXACTLY! It’s kind of upsetting that no one really reads the article for what it is… a trademark issue. Artists that just want to own phrases for a lifetime for the sake of just getting richer and being possessive are cruel and damage the expression of creativity to those who want to be the Queen of Christmas in their own right.
Diva is so inspired by this legendary holiday Queen💅🏾 Btw Diva swallowed like 6 loads last night… I was so drunk and I stop counting how many d I c k s were inside me🍆🍆🍆🍆
Yaaaaaaaaaaas Diva! 🤣
Drag ha Mrs Love!!
From a strictly LEGAL standpoint, Mariah simply filed for the Trademark before Darlene and Chan, which is all one has to do in order to obtain the trademark.
If Darlene and Chan are made because they feel they are the queens of Christmas, then they need to hire smarter lawyers to trademark titles for them.
Mariah and Darlene had a good relationship and have spoken highly of one another for decades, so I hope this doesn’t cause and strife between them now after all these years, when it’s CLEAR that Mariah has become the commercial Queen of Christmas, and that’s not even debatable!!!
Yup. Mariah IS, and always WILL be the Queen of Christmas. Whose Christmas song is #1 year in, year out? It’s the #1 Christmas song of ALL TIME.
Once again idiots on the blog doesn’t know anything about trademark law
Filing a trademark application doesn’t guarantee you’ll get it
If someone is already known in the marketplace as something , even without a trademark filed, it’s defensible under trademark law as a common law trademark
Good luck with that. Can’t stand MC. This is the same pyscho chick who doesn’t even have a relationship with her mother or siblings because she thinks she’s God
Because her mom is a b****, and her sister is a heroin-addicted jealous, narcissistic hooker
Sound like the apples don’t fall too far from the tree
Hater lmaoooooooooo 🤣
Never heard of this FLOP
Me neither 🤣
Wrong account? 😂
I agree that the title should not be trademarked. It can apply to whomever at any point in time based on opinion. Mariah is going too far with this and is really showing her level of self absorption in an unattractive way. Aretha was/is known as the Queen of Soul due to wide recognition and agreement but it would be ridiculous if the use of that title by someone else was grounds for a lawsuit. Mariah’s claim is really only based on the success of one song anyway. One that anyone could have easily written considering the title and theme (only wanting a person as opposed to other things for Christmas) of the song had been used by others before her. I don’t think she should be allowed to stop the other females from using the title but we’ll see. Not that she cares, but this is purely egotistical.
You are DELUDED! Anyone could have written it? Well, they didn’t, Mariah did. And it’s the #1 selling holiday of all-time and has been loved by all generations for the last 20 years. You think of Christmas and Christmas music, you think of Mariah. Don’t lie.
Well she is being sued over the use of the title of that song (All I Want For Christmas Is You) and probably trying to rush this trademark through before that case is settled. Again, in my opinion ‘Queen of … whatever’ is subjective and based on opinions. I would argue that Madonna is the Queen of Pop but some others say it’s Janet Jackson. I disagree but that’s their opinion and their entitled to their own opinion. Aretha never felt the need to trademark Queen of Soul, she allowed her track record to speak for itself. Same goes forcMichael Jackson withcKing of Pop. If Mariah was so secure in her so called title she would not need a trademark. But instead she wants to stop others from using the title to earn a living and that’s just plain ridiculous and selfish in my opinion, especially considering this is Christmas we’re talking about. Her efforts to further capitalize and legally monopolize the holiday is shameful in my opinion.
Not a huge fan of Mariah Carey’s as much as I was in the 90’s, but, thats a simple business move. If they felt some kind of way, why not just contact her people/her first instead of ranting to Variety or Facebook. If she is an ish about it, then you go hard.
Just very unprofessional by the other two ladies.
Going public with their grievance is probably also a strategic business move. They have already filed an opposition to her trademark application and are now probably thinking that garnering public support will help their cause in court, or at least it can’t hurt.
