Christina Aguilera lit up the Eiffel Tower while filming her holiday special, and now, she’s ready to light up your TV screens this Christmas.

As revealed Tuesday (Dec. 16), the vocalist will unveil Christina Aguilera: Christmas in Paris on Dec. 22 following a theatrical premiere earlier in the month, with the hour-long program premiering at 9 p.m. ET/PT on the CBS Television Network and Paramount+. It celebrates the 25th anniversary of Aguilera’s My Kind of Christmas album, which reached No. 28 on the Billboard 200 in 2000.

A description reads that the special features “magical live performances from the City of Love” — filmed with a live orchestra above the Musée du Quai Branly with Paris’ most famous tower sparkling behind the singer — as well as a “look into Aguilera’s remarkable career.” There will also be “exquisite costume changes” and cameos from special guests Sheila E. and Yseult, with Xtina set to share her “thoughts on love, motherhood, reinvention and her career’s artistry.”

The news comes just a couple of days after Christmas in Paris premiered in theaters on Dec. 14. There will also be screenings on Dec. 21, before the film arrives on CBS and Paramount+.

In addition to the special, Aguilera recently dropped a corresponding live album featuring recordings of her performances in Paris. The set includes her takes on classics such as “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” and “The Christmas Song,” as well as renditions of her own hits “Genie in a Bottle” and “Lady Marmalade.”

“It was magical to revisit songs from My Kind of Christmas, and to perform other holiday favorites live for the first time,” Aguilera wrote of the endeavor on Instagram. “I loved channeling beloved films like ‘Meet Me in St. Louis’ and ‘The Sound of Music’ against the dreamy backdrop of such a beautiful city. I can’t wait for you to see this in theaters, and to listen as you celebrate this holiday season. Let the Christmas magic begin.”

She & Him, the indie-folk duo of Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward, debuts on the Billboard Hot 100 for the first time this week, thanks to 2008 song “I Thought I Saw Your Face Today.”

Originally released on the pair’s debut album, Volume One, in March 2008, the track debuts at No. 99 on the chart (dated Dec. 20) with 5 million official U.S. streams in Dec. 5-11 — up 35% week-over-week — according to Luminate. The resurgence has been fueled by a viral TikTok trend in which users pair the wistful breakup ballad to sentimental clips from movies and TV shows, nature montages and sports highlight reels.

(Older songs showing meaningful gains can appear on the Hot 100 if in the chart’s top 50, with those without significant chart history eligible to debut at any rank, as considered individually.)

While She & Him never scored a major chart single during the duo’s late-2000s heyday, the pair became a cultural fixture thanks to its twee ballads and stripped-down covers of pop standards.

Volume One became the duo’s first chart entry when it debuted at No. 81 on the Billboard 200 in April 2008; it peaked at No. 71 the following week. The pair has since charted four additional projects: Volume Two (No. 6, 2010), A Very She & Him Christmas (No. 12, 2011), Volume Three (No. 15, 2013) and Classics (No. 41, 2014).

A Very She & Him Christmas, a collection of festive covers, has proven particularly durable, returning to Billboard’s Top Holiday Albums chart multiple times since its 2011 release.

Prior to this week, She & Him last appeared on Billboard’s charts in 2022 with Melt Away: A Tribute to Brian Wilson. The Beach Boys covers set reached No. 16 on Americana Folk/Albums and No. 21 on Top Album Sales.

Both Deschanel and M. Ward have solo chart histories outside of She & Him. Deschanel’s “Merry Christmas, Happy New Year,” with Ingrid Michaelson, reached No. 20 on Adult Contemporary in 2021, and her featured appearance on Prince’s “Fallinlove2nite” hit No. 29 on Adult R&B Airplay in 2014. The latter appeared in an episode of New Girl, starring Deschanel, while Prince appeared in a guest role on the sitcom.

M. Ward has charted four albums on the Billboard 200: Post-War (No. 146, 2006), Hold Time (No. 31, 2009), A Wasteland Companion (No. 21, 2012) and More Rain (No. 128, 2016). He earned his first solo radio hit in 2020, when “Unreal City” reached No. 35 on Adult Alternative Airplay.

M. Ward was also a member of the folk supergroup Monsters of Folk alongside My Morning Jacket’s Jim James, Bright Eyes’ Coner Oberst and Mike Mogis, and Will Johnson. The band’s only release, its self-titled set, reached No. 15 on the Billboard 200 in 2009, while single “Say Please” peaked at No. 20 on Adult Alternative Airplay.

Grupo Frontera joined Bad Bunny on Monday (Dec. 15) as a special guest at the Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City to perform the Tex-Mex cumbia “un x100to” together. The participation of the Mexican-American supergroup during the Puerto Rican superstar’s fourth show created a unique moment, blending regional Mexican music with reggaetón and Caribbean salsa for one night.

The group took to the main stage of the venue to the roar of 66,000 people, according to figures from Ocesa, who celebrated and captured the moment with their cell phones. The band, led by vocalist Adelaido “Payo” Solís III, became the second guest in Bad Bunny’s series of eight concerts in Mexico City, following Colombian artist Feid, who joined the second night of the tour on Dec. 11 from the alternate stage known as “La Casita.”

“un x100to” made its way to the Mexican leg of the Debí Tirar Más Fotos tour on the same night Bad Bunny gifted his audience with an exclusive performance of “Where She Goes.” This successful romantic cumbia marks Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio’s second collaboration with regional Mexican artists, following the 2019 remix of the corrido “Soy el Diablo,” which he recorded with corridos tumbados star Natanael Cano.

The music video for his 2023 hit “un x100to, entered YouTube’s Billion Views Club in September, marking his 17th entry overall. Meanwhile, for Grupo Frontera, “un x100to” becomes the group’s second entry in the platform’s exclusive club.

Bad Bunny will perform the fifth concert of his tour on Dec. 16 at the Estadio GNP Seguros, a venue that, according to Ocesa, will bring together more than 520,000 people across the eight shows, with the remaining ones scheduled for Dec. 19, 20 and 21 all sold out.

The boricua star ranks as the third artist with the highest number of concerts at the legendary capital city stadium, formerly known as Foro Sol, trailing only Colombian superstar Shakira, who holds the record with 12 shows, and Mexican group Grupo Firme with nine concerts already performed.

The Debí Tirar Más Fotos tour began on Nov. 21 in the Dominican Republic and also made stops in Costa Rica. In 2026, it will continue in Chile, Peru, Argentina and Brazil before moving on to Asia and Europe.

The Killers, T-Pain, Dominic Fike, Janelle Monáe and Avery Anna will take the stage at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on April 8 for the inaugural Freely Fest celebrating the power of music and the freedoms protected by the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.

The event from Freedom Forum — a nonpartisan organization dedicated to “fostering First Amendment freedoms for all — will blend performances with the artist’s personal stories about the power of free expression and on-site interactive experiences highlighting the importance of our First Amendment freedoms.

“From Freedom Forum’s perspective, any day would be a great day to celebrate the power of music, how free expression is the First Amendment in action through artists and through audiences,” Freedom Forum chair and CEO Jan Neuharth tells Billboard about the inspiration for the event. “We approach our work [by] trying to bring First Amendment rights to people in a way that makes it feel relevant to them in their daily lives. We want to educate, but we don’t want to lecture, it’s not school, it’s helping people understand these right that maybe we take for granted.”

Neuharth also notes that Nashville was chosen for the show for a number of reasons, including its status as “Music City,” as well as being a creative hub for music and the home of legendary Nashville journalist John Seigenthaler, a civil rights activist and founding editorial director of USA Today, who established the Freedom Forum’s First Amendment Center at city’s Vanderbilt University. Freedom Forum was established on July 4, 1991 by USA Today founder, and Jan Neuharth’s father, Al Neuharth, with a vision of fostering first Amendment freedoms for all Americans.

“When you listen to a song do you automatically think, ‘Oh, this is free speech and it’s protected by the First Amendment!’ Likely not as you compile your playlist,” Neuharth says, adding that the organization’s “Brought to You By the First Amendment” campaign is a reminder that what we read, sing, listen to and wear are all protected by the First Amendment.

“You’re not thinking about the First Amendment, and it’s so important that people do that and so all of our work is focused on trying to bring these freedoms to life,” she says, calling music “a universal language” that can bring people together to celebrate these freedoms that rely on all of us to stand up to protect. Freedom Forum has teamed with C3/Live Nation on the event, which Neuharth stresses is a “mission-driven” festival that at its core is all about having fun and celebrating the power of music.

In case you need a refresher, the First Amendment of the Constitution prevents Congress from making laws prohibiting the free exercise of religion, abridging the freedom of speech, the freedom of the press and the freedom to peaceably assemble, among other rights.

“The First Amendment is for everyone. The First Amendment is non-partisan, we’re non-partisan, Freely Festival is non-partisan, what we want to do is raise awareness that any artist has a right to write whatever music they want and speak in ways they want and fans have a right to listen or choose not to listen,” says Neuharth.

Tickets for the event go on sale on Thursday (Dec. 18) here.
