Famous Singer Loses Bid To Trademark “Queen Of Christmas” Title
Mariah Carey is one of our most well-known female music stars; at this time of year, she stands out even more. Since its debut in 1994, her holiday single “All I Want For Christmas Is You” has become a seasonal staple. Recently, Carey attempted to use a trademark to profit even more from her association with Christmas, but her request was denied.
The singer attempted to copyright the nickname her admirers had given her over the years: “Queen of Christmas.” Her application for the terms “Christmas Princess” and “Princess Christmas,” along with several others, was turned down by the US Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. The lines were reportedly intended to be used by Carey as branding for various products, including lingerie, cosmetics, jewelry, beverages, toys, and dog clothing.
