The “All I Want for Christmas Is You” singer got a lump of coal before the holiday this year when she lost a shot at trademarking the regal moniker.
the Queen of Christmas title via her company, called Lotion LLC, to use on a line of merchandise that would include albums, fragrances, pet accessories, sunglasses and more.
But Chan filed an opposition in the case earlier this year. Other singers, such as “Christmas ” crooner Darlene Love, also objected to Carey’s move. Attorney Louis Tompros of WilmerHale, which repped Chan, said in a statement: “This was a classic case of trademark bullying. We are pleased with the victory, and delighted that we were able to help Elizabeth fight back against Carey’s overreaching trademark registrations.”
Chan told Page Six through tears after the victory in the case: “I did this to protect and save Christmas. Christmas isn’t about one single person — it’s about everybody.”She added that: “I’ve dedicated my life to this understanding of how special Christmas is. It was difficult to be the one to stand up” against Carey in the name of the holiday.
She also said in a press release: “As an independent artist and small business owner, my life’s work is to bring people together for the holiday season, which is how I came to be called the Queen of Christmas. I wear that title as a badge of honor and with full knowledge that it will be — and should be — bestowed on others in the future. My goal in taking on this fight was to stand up to trademark bullying not just to protect myself, but also to protect future Queens of Christmas.
