It's not a festive season without Mariah Carey and now the singer is involved in an ongoing bid to become the Queen of Christmas. However, the global superstar's attempt to trademark the title has sparked a legal battle and prompted criticism from other famous singers with notable Christmas songs such as Darlene Love, Brenda Lee and Elizabeth Chan. Mariah's massive hit All I Want For You Christmas is You was originally released in 1994 and has been a chart topper during the holiday season ever since.
Coldplay have paid tribute to the late pop idol star Darius Campbell Danesh following the singer's death earlier this month. The four-piece group have been performing back to back shows at Wembley this week and took a moment to recognise Darius, who Chris Martin called a 'close friend'. Darius' death was confirmed this week by his family who said in a statement that he had died after being found 'unresponsive' in his Minnesota apartment.
