Mariah Carey<\/strong> and Sabrina Carpenter<\/strong> are being mentioned in the same holiday lane this year. A new source report claims the \u201cQueen of Christmas\u201d is watching the younger pop star\u2019s seasonal momentum closely. The framing ties to new winter content and touring plans on both sides. Consequently, the competitive holiday season narrative between Carpenter and Carey now mixes chart chatter with branding stakes. Meanwhile, Carey has already rolled out \u201cAll I Want for Christmas Is You\u201d on tour stops across Asia.<\/p>\n As cited in the Star magazine<\/a> report, a source paints a competitive picture. As the insider tells Star, \u201cIt\u2019s never good to have someone more than half your age with a massive fan base trying to come after your business \u2014 and make no mistake, that is how Mariah views Christmas.\u201d The same source adds, \u201cSabrina seems to be biting at her heels.\u201d<\/p>\n Carpenter<\/a> has built a December lane with 2023\u2019s \u201cFruitcake\u201d EP and a 2024 Netflix special, \u201cA Nonsense Christmas.\u201d After the special, her holiday album reentered the Billboard 200 at No. 10 and notched the year\u2019s biggest vinyl sales week for a seasonal record. Therefore, industry watchers now read her festive rollouts as a recurring play rather than a one-off.<\/p>\n Carey\u2019s seasonal footprint remains vast, from legacy streaming spikes to branded performances. Yet, the money and mindshare around December are finite. So, the source argues, Carey<\/a> is guarding the franchise. \u201cMariah\u2019s made Christmas a cottage industry for herself,\u201d the insider says. \u201cShe rakes in so much money from it, but like most artists, she always fears someone could come along and take that from her. Plenty certainly try \u2014 they see all the money she\u2019s making and they want a piece of it!\u201d<\/p>\n Still, both stars benefit from the same calendar window. Carpenter<\/a>\u2019s youth audience drives discovery, and Carey\u2019s catalogue drives tradition. As a result, the conversation around these pop stars will likely track week-to-week December metrics and tour clips.<\/p>\n The post Mariah Carey Fears Sabrina Carpenter Will Steal Holiday Spotlight \u2014 Source<\/a> appeared first on Reality Tea<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Mariah Carey and Sabrina Carpenter are being mentioned in the same holiday lane this year.
