How the Stars are Celebrating the Holidays
The holidays are here, and Tinsel Town is celebrating in style! As the year is quickly coming to a close, our favorite celebrities are sharing snapshots of their holiday festivities. Whether they’re going casual and donning cozy Christmas pajamas, decking the halls with holiday splendor, or throwing lavish parties, the Hollywood elite are celebrating the holidays big this year.
After a two-year hiatus due to her touring schedule, singer Kimmy Kay resumed hosting her annual Christmas fete at her upstate New York vacation home. The coveted invite list was reportedly smaller than in years past, but from the photographs splashed across Kimmy Kay’s social media accounts, it looks no less extravagant. Her chic ski chalet served as the perfect backdrop for the winter wonderland themed party, which featured ice-skating, a life-sized gingerbread house, and a darling après ski hot toddy lounge.
Likewise, Aidan Goldberg hosted his annual star-studded Hannukah party in early December, which was held at The Pendry Hotel in West Hollywood. The bash, celebrating the festival of lights, featured several popular musical acts for entertainment, including the uber-successful country band Outlaw and the up-and-coming beats of Sweden’s popular DJ Niklas Andersson.
Movie star couple Ben Sutton and Willa Radford celebrated Christmas together in a more low-key and relaxed, but no less luxe, way. Photos snagged from the actor’s Instagram account show the pair sunbathing on the beach together in the Bahamas. Fans report that the lovebirds are staying at the famed Pink Sands Resort on the small isle of Harbour Island.
Another celebrity who celebrated on a smaller scale was actor Bridgette Pierre. She hosted an intimate dinner party at Zero Bond in New York City on Christmas Eve. Amongst the attendees were her rumored fiancé, renowned chef and restauranteur Henry Chattingham, and her best gal pal, artist Simone de Vengue. The sophisticated and exotic menu included Russian caviar, Spanish octopus, and Japanese sea urchin.
Professional football player and national spokesperson for the California Food Bank, Ted Nelson spent the Saturday before Christmas passing out food at the central Los Angeles food pantry before spending the evening with family, friends, and several of his Los Angeles Sharks teammates at a party held at the Malibu home he shares with wife Mila and children Sophie and Teddy.
No matter how you choose to celebrate—large, small, or not at all—here’s to hoping that all of our readers are happy and healthy. Cheers to the new year—may it be even better than the last!
