Mariah Carey performs live on stage during Brighton Pride 2025: Pride In The Park at Preston Park on August 02, 2025 in Brighton, England.

As the transgender community continues to face unprecedented attacks, pop and R&B superstar Mariah Carey is doing her part to make sure the community is being represented properly.
On Wednesday (Dec. 3), LGBTQ+ advocacy organization GLAAD announced their new partnership with Carey, who is auctioning off her rhinestoned “Protect the Dolls” jacket in support of the non-profit’s continued efforts advocating on behalf of the trans community.
Carey wore the now-iconic jacket during her Aug. 2 performance at Brighton, England’s Pride in the Park festival earlier this year. The hot pink jacket features the phrase “Protect the Dolls” emblazoned across the back — a reference to the oft-cited phrase of support for the trans community.
While the phrase’s use dates back to the ballroom scene of the 1980s, “Protect the Dolls” became more widely known in 2025 after fashion designer Conner Ives featured the slogan in large, bold letters across a white t-shirt during his London Fashion Week show as a show of solidarity and fundraising for the trans community. Since then, celebrities including Pedro Pascal, Troye Sivan, Charli xcx, Addison Rae and more have worn the slogan as a show of support for the trans community.
GLAAD’s auction for Carey’s jacket begins on Monday (Dec. 8) at 3 p.m. ET. All proceeds raised from the auction are set to benefit the organization’s Transgender Media Program, an outreach program designed to help media professionals accurately cover and tell stories about the trans community.
Carey, meanwhile, is in the midst of her annual resurgence to chart dominance — earlier this week, the Elusive Chanteuse’s perennial holiday hit “All I Want For Christmas Is You” continued its rise up the Billboard Hot 100, landing at No. 5. The 1994 holiday track has topped the Hot 100 for at least one week every year since it first reached the summit of the chart in Dec. 2019.
