The All I Want For Christmas Is You singer was also denied attempts to trademark the abbreviation 'QOC' and 'Princess Christmas'.

"I feel very strongly that no one person should hold on to anything around Christmas or monopolise it in the way that Mariah seeks to in perpetuity," she told the magazine.

"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."She accused Carey of"trying to trademark this in every imaginable way" - from music to clothing to alcohol.In another twist, singer Darlene Love, known for Christmas and covers of other festive hits, said on Facebook that she had been dubbed"Queen of Christmas" before Carey had risen to prominence.

Carey's failure to get the trademark comes shortly after country singer Andy Stone dropped his copyright lawsuit against her. Stone, who performs as Vince Vance, sued the singer in June for $20m over a song he co-wrote in 1989 that's also called All I Want For Christmas Is You.
