RELATED: Mariah Carey Lost The Trademark For ‘Queen Of Christmas’ Mariah Carey attempted to trademark the Queen of Christmas title. In contrast to her claims, Carey made a move in 2021 to exclusively own the 'Queen of Christmas' title. She filed the application through her company, Lotion LLC, to use the name on a list of products that would include albums, fragrances, pet accessories, sunglasses, and other things. Youtube Video Screenshot The bid sparked controversy as two other singers known for their seasonal songs publicly objected to her claim to the name. Darlene Love disclosed that David Letterman christened her Queen of Christmas nearly three decades ago, while Elizabeth Chan claims that she is "music's only full-time Christmas singer-songwriter." The aggrieved Chan challenged the attempt by filing a motion opposing Carey's request, which led to the Trial Trademark and Appeal Board's rejection of Carey's trademark bid. Other singers expressed their satisfaction at the Patent's denial Mariah Carey's failed attempt has generated opinions from other Christmas queens. "Thank you, Lord!! Congrats to all the other Queens of Christmases around the world, living and whom have passed!" Darlene Love posted on Facebook.

However, country music legend Dolly Parton had only words of admiration for Mariah Carey “I love her," she said. "You think of Christmas, you think of Mariah. I’m happy to be second in line to her.” Mariah Carey says she adores everything about the Christmas season Carey also noted that the Christmas season is a time that she adores; this stems from the hardships she experienced in her childhood. She decided to make up for the lost time by making every season special for herself and her family. Youtube Video Screenshot “I just happen to actually really love Christmas,” she told Colbert. “Because I grew up and had kind of a tough childhood, and I always wanted Christmas to be perfect, and it never was. So then when I was able to finally provide myself and my friends and then later now my little kids who are 11 ... we have the most festive Christmas ever."
