Elizabeth Chan, the Queen of Christmas, Takes on Mariah Carey and Prolific Christmas Songwriting

Elizabeth Chan, known as the Queen of Christmas, has made a name for herself by writing and performing Christmas songs. She left her executive job at Conde Nast to pursue her dream of creating a classic Christmas standard. Chan has written over a thousand Christmas songs and has charted on the Billboard adult contemporary charts. Recently, she found herself in a trademark battle with Mariah Carey, who had attempted to trademark the title "Queen of Christmas." Chan's attorneys successfully fought against Carey's application, viewing it as trademark bullying. Despite not having high streaming numbers, Chan's strategy of releasing an abundance of Christmas music has allowed her songs to be featured on platforms like Sirius XM and Pandora. She is known for her determination to protect her title and continue making Christmas music.
