Mariah Carey can't be the only 'Queen of Christmas' after losing trademark bid

It's official: Mariah Carey can't be the only artist to wear the "Queen of Christmas" crown.

The Trademark Trial and Appeal Board on Tuesday terminated Carey's bid to trademark the title after the musician and her company, Lotion LLC, failed to respond to fellow singer Elizabeth Chan's opposition to Carey's trademark claim.

Carey's "Queen of Christmas" trademark would have allowed her to brand a wide range of products, including fragrances, lotions, nail polish, jewelry, cups, mugs, sweatshirts, food and drink, ornaments and music, according to her application filed with the U.S Trademark Office in March 2021.
