Anything But Festive: Brawl Breaks Out At Mariah Carey Christmas Concert

Mariah Carey is sometimes referred to as the 'Queen of Christmas.' That is in large part due to her iconic song "All I Want For Christmas Is You." She released the song 30 years ago and it is still played on every radio station during the holidays today. However, the singer is breaking headlines for a different reason recently. During a recent Mariah Carey Christmas concert the crowd was anything but festive. Instead the crowd erupts as a brawl breaks out among fans.

Brawl Breaks Out At Mariah Carey Christmas Concert

The singer just wanted to celebrate her three decades of success and share a little Christmas spirit. But apparently, these two fans had other intentions. Let's just say these ladies are definitely on Santa's naughty list. A video circulating on social media shows a woman enjoying herself at the Mariah Carey Christmas concert. Then, the woman spins the camera so that we can see the fans directly in front of her.

There, you see a brunette woman shove a blonde woman directly in front of her. The blonde woman responds by tossing her drink into the shover's face. Next, a brawl breaks out. The women lunge at one another before their partners get involved and separate them. For a moment, it appears as if the men are going to brawl it out as well but then they think otherwise.

Fans Are Disappointed

The absolute irony of the situation is that as this brawl breaks out on the floor, Mariah Carey is giving such a joyous performance on stage. You can hear her reaching her impossible octaves as she and others in festive attire dance around the state.

There's a jolly feeling up there, a sharp juxtaposition to the tension among the fans below. The people of the internet seem baffled and annoyed at these two women's actions. American Songwriter shares some of the comments left on the X video. However my favorite has to be this one:

" I'm sorry but you have to be absolutely unhinged to fight at a Mariah Carey holiday concert. In that festive atmosphere with all that holiday joy in the air and you're throwing hands? Lock them up."

I am sure the Queen of Christmas would agree. All she wants for Christmas is some peace at her holiday concerts.
