Mariah Carey blames ‘bad lighting’ in Spotify Christmas video claiming to be AI-generated

Mariah Carey is denying claims that her 2024 Spotify Wrapped video message to fans was AI-generated. 

Carey, dubbed the "Queen of Christmas," addressed the viral video that caused a stir among fans. 

"Bad lighting and a red lip have you all thinking this is AI??" Carey, 55, declared on X. "There’s a reason I’m not a fan of either of those things!"

"Thank you so much for listening to my music on Spotify. Your support through the year is the greatest gift I could ask for," she shared in the video.

Carey’s comments come amid a fight that broke out in the middle of one of her Christmas concerts. 

While the Grammy winner was in the middle of performing, "All I Want for Christmas is You" two men shoved each other in the audience during the heated exchange.

In the video, a woman attempted to hold one of the men back, while Carey appeared unphased during the brawl. 

The fight seemingly began after a woman sitting close to the stage shoved another woman sitting in front of her. The blonde woman who got pushed turned and threw her drink at the brunette behind her, according to video shared online. The two men presumably then got involved.

"Where's the f---ing security???" someone off-screen can be heard saying.

Meanwhile, Carey kept performing her hit Christmas song to close out the show.

Carey's Christmas hit has been a holiday staple since it was released in 1994. "All I Want for Christmas is You" topped the Billboard Hot 100 and has sold more than 10 million copies.
