Hollaback For The Holidays Gwen Stefani Dazzles at Rockefeller Tree Lighting With New Festive Hits
OMG you guys the holiday season has officially arrived and it is all thanks to our forever queen Gwen Stefani. New York City just got a major dose of festive glam as the iconic singer literally lit up our lives and the 91st annual Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree on December 3. And let me tell you it was everything.
The "Christmas in Rockefeller Center" special on NBC is always a must see but this year Gwen took it to a whole new level. Forget just decking the halls she completely renovated the entire holiday. She wasn't just there to flip a switch she was there to serve looks and vocals with a sleigh full of brand new holiday music.
A Winter Wonderland of New Music
While we all live for her classic holiday duets with hubby Blake Shelton this night was all about Gwen's new chapter. She took to the stage in front of the world famous Norway Spruce and gifted us with what insiders are calling her "snow globe songs". These are not your grandma's dusty old carols. Think shimmering pop anthems with a touch of nostalgic magic so enchanting you feel like you are living inside a perfect holiday movie.
One of the new tracks a sparkly upbeat bop had the entire crowd in Rockefeller Plaza dancing despite the chilly NYC air. It was a total vibe. Later she slowed it down with a heart melting ballad that felt both brand new and instantly timeless. It’s that signature Stefani magic blending her cool girl edge with genuine heart. This new music is the perfect soundtrack for wrapping presents sipping hot cocoa or driving around to see the holiday lights.
Sleighing the Festive Fashion Game
And can we talk about the OUTFIT? Because of course we have to. Gwen Stefani did not come to play she came to sleigh. She stepped out in a stunning custom ensemble that was part ice princess part rock star. We are talking sequins crystals and a silhouette that was pure festive couture. It was a look that screamed holiday cheer and high fashion all at once solidifying her status as a style icon for every season. The sparkle from her outfit was rivaled only by the thousands of lights on the giant tree behind her. Seriously iconic.
Nostalgia with a Modern Twist
What made the performance so special was how Gwen blended this fresh new energy with cozy holiday nostalgia. In between debuting her new festive hits she wove in moments that felt like a warm hug. It was a perfect mix that honored the tradition of the Rockefeller Tree Lighting while pushing the sound of Christmas music forward.
And you know we were all looking for a certain cowboy in the crowd. While Blake Shelton wasn't on stage with her this time sources say he was watching proudly giving his wife all the support. Their romance continues to be the gift that keeps on giving and her performance was filled with the kind of joy that you just know is inspired by their sweet life together.
The entire December 3 show was a star studded affair but Gwen's performance was the glittering star on top of the tree. She officially kicked off the holiday season in the most spectacular way possible. Her new snow globe inspired songs have set the tone for a festive and bright end to the year.
So get ready to update your holiday playlists because Gwen Stefani just delivered a whole new collection of Christmas classics. The Rockefeller Tree is lit the air is filled with new music and it's clear this holiday season is going to be a happy one. No doubt.
