December 1st 2024.
Mariah Carey probably doesn't want anyone specific under her Christmas tree this year, but we can all imagine who it might be. As December begins, the famous singer-songwriter, who has been in the industry for over 55 years, has come back into the spotlight. Her beloved holiday classic, "All I Want for Christmas is You," is once again topping the charts.
But the question on everyone's mind is, who would Mariah really hate to see under her tree? We took a look back at some of her past feuds and disagreements to see who might ruin her Christmas this year. From US presidents to rival vocalists, mouthy rappers to gossipy reporters, we've got quite a list. Sorry, Mariah, we hope none of them come over for dinner this year!
First up on our list is Jennifer Lopez. It's no secret that these two stars have been at odds since the late 1990s. When J-Lo signed a record deal with Mariah's ex-husband, Tommy Mottola, things went sour between the two of them. And when Mariah was asked about Jennifer in a 2008 interview, her famous response of "I don't know her" became an internet meme. In her memoir, The Meaning of Mariah, she revealed that a lot of their feud was due to Tommy's anger over their divorce and her departure from Sony.
Next, we have Eminem. The rapper claimed that him and Mariah had a relationship in the early 2000s, which she continuously denied. They even referenced their feud in their songs and diss tracks. And in 2019, when Eminem dropped an anti-Nick Cannon diss verse in a track, Nick responded with a song of his own. He later stated that if Eminem keeps talking about him, he's going to keep talking back.
Then there's Donald Trump. While Mariah hasn't been vocal about politics, she has made it clear that she supports Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. She even visited the Oval Office to show her support for the Biden-Harris campaign. So we can only imagine how she would feel if the former president and first lady showed up for Christmas dinner.
Ryan Seacrest may have had a hand in ruining Mariah's New Year's Eve performance in 2016. Technical difficulties caused her to struggle on stage, and when Ryan asked her about it 18 months later, she responded with "can we not get into past moments?" They seem to have made up since then, but we doubt he'll be on her Christmas card list this year.
Demi Lovato and Mariah seemed to get along until 2016, when Demi reportedly had some choice words about Mariah's backstage reputation. When an Instagram account referred to Ariana Grande as a "low rent version" of Mariah, Demi had something to say. And when Mariah's fans flooded her page, Demi responded with "this is why I posted what I did...the woman is mean for no reason."
And finally, we have Madonna. While they seem to be on good terms now, 30 years ago was a different story. Madonna once said she'd rather "kill herself" than be like Mariah, and Mariah responded by saying she hadn't paid attention to Madonna since she was in middle school.
And while Mariah hasn't publicly stated her dislike for the Kardashians, she has made some comments that hint at it. In 2016, she stated that some people's goal is to be famous, not to have a craft or art that they're famous for. And in 2015, she said that being famous just from being on a reality show doesn't require much, but it kind of does. Looks like the Kardashian clan won't be getting a Christmas card from Mariah this year.
