Jennifer Hudson Says She’s the ‘Princess of Christmas,’ But Mariah Carey Will Always Be ‘Queen’


Jennifer Hudson, who released her holiday LP 'The Gift of Love,' declared herself 'princess of Christmas' as she honored the 'queen,' Mariah Carey.

Jennifer Hudson has a new holiday album out, and with the vocals she slayed (or should we say, sleigh ‘ed) on it, she sure deserves her title of “Princess of Christmas!” In a new People interview published Monday, the talk show host celebrated her album The Gift of Love, but rest assured that she knows Mariah Carey will always be the Christmas queen. The new comments to People came Saturday after Hudson performed with Dionne Warwick at the 2024 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Friday, and several days after she dropped The Gift of Love, filled with renditions of classic holiday songs.
