To capture the essence of Tiana, Disney requires a singer with the vocal ability to perform in a style reminiscent of Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas.. Similarly, Belle’s role demands a vocalist who can sing “As Long As There’s Christmas” in alignment with the film’s score. This focus on quality performances signifies Disney’s commitment to providing high-caliber entertainment during the holiday celebration, ensuring a magical experience for attendees.
