Some of Mariah Carey's fans forgot to bring the spirit of the holiday with them when they attended her concert in Baltimore on Saturday night.
As the singer, 55, attempted to spread Christmas cheer during her latest tour, a number of rowdy audience members may have landed on the naughty list for their bad behavior during her show.
The nasty brawl, uploaded on TMZ, broke out at the diva's performance at the CFG Bank Arena.
Witnesses at the scene told the outlet that the physical altercation involved four or five people and escalated quickly after a drink was thrown.
The unruly concertgoers' fight reportedly took place while the chorus was filling time until the All I Want for Christmas Is You singer returned to the stage for her final song.
Several punches were thrown and one person was said to have been put into a dangerous headlock.

Witnesses say security came to intervene and put an end to the chaos. No reason was given for what started the fight.
Security apparently decided to handle the incident on their own and police were not called.
Carey seemed unaware of the clash and finished the concert without incident.
This latest fray comes after another violent interaction at the December 1 show at the Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C.

Several other women were seen lashing out at each other in the clip shared on X/Twitter.
The Joy to the World singer didn't seem to be aware of any of the violence at that gig either.
On Sunday, the performer posted two photos of herself dressed in a red and white Santa suit getting glammed up.
'Christmastime Tour… only 5 shows left! It’s been such a joy celebrating the holidays with you all ❤️' she wrote.

The final five shows were set for Raleigh, NC, Pittsburgh, PA, Newark, NJ, Belmont Park, NY and Brooklyn, NY.
Carey has been performing some incarnation of her holiday shows since 2014, with the exception of 2020 and 2021, during the Covid-19 lockdown.
This year she is celebrating the 30 year anniversary of her beloved All I Want for Christmas is You. It went triple platinum back in 1994, and Carey has released a re-mastered version of the single and her Merry Christmas album.
'I don’t know numbers but I’m really proud to celebrate 30 years of this album. I’m so grateful to all my fans who spent many of their Christmases with these songs.' the singer and songwriter wrote on Saturday, adding, 'The album is available now with a new remastering of my 1994 concert at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine.'
