The Queen of Christmas is waging war against anyone bringing down the holiday spirit.
On Wednesday,Mariah Carey, 52, gave a Texas bar a piece of her mind after a photo surfaced on social media of a sign posted inside — restricting Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” jingle from playing.
The signread in all caps “Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You’ will be skipped if played before Dec 1. After Dec. 1 the song is only allowed one time a night.”
Kyle Smith, the social media user who shared the photo didn’t specify which bar — only that it was found on a “Dallas jukebox.”
A few days later, another Twitter user quote-retweeted the photo and wrote “is this the war on Christmas I’ve heard about?”
Carey then jumped to action and quote-retweeted it with a photo of herself from her2015Game of Warcommercial— and fans were here for it.
Monday marked the beginning of Carey’s Christmas content when she shared a festive video on social media. In the video, the pop icon suited up in red from head to toe and captioned it, “Ready? Let’s go! 🎃➡️🎄.”
In the video, Carey stood before three jack-o'-lanterns that read “It’s not time,” and waited for the clock to strike midnight. Once it did, she took a candy cane baseball bat to the middle pumpkin — and her iconic “All I Want for Christmas Is You” jingle played in the background as she got in the Christmas spirit.

The “Fantasy” singer then shared a teaser photo on Instagram with a clapperboard labeled “More Magic: MC x K x KF” following the news. Shecaptioned the photo"The Magic Continues…@appletvplus."
The holiday special will also feature the debut performance of Carey’s newest Christmas collaboration withKhalidandKirk Franklinfor “Fall in Love at Christmas.” The single will be released this Friday.
