The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce said that the 46-year-old songstress' star was vandalised on Monday night, reported E! online.
The officials confirmed that the perpetrator drew a question mark at the end of the "Always Be My Baby" singer's name with what appears to be an ink marker or pen.
This act of vandalism may be in response to Carey's wobbly performance on the New Year's eve, when the singer's musical play was hit by a technical glitch.
As of Tuesday morning, the star has been fixed. The process has cost nearly USD 1,500.
