Turn up the holiday swagger with iHeartRadio Jingle Ball where a star-studded performers list includes the best of what pop culture has to offer. From BTS to Bille Eilish, from Sam Smith to Shawn Mendes, Doja Cat, The Weeknd, guest appearances of Mariah Carey, Lil Nas X, and more.

The 25th anniversary of iHeartRadio Jingle Ball promises to be the most unique gig of the holiday fest as this time, the artists will perform a never-seen-before rendition of the holiday classics along with their music. BTS will be joining the event virtually to perform a snippet of a holiday classic. Mariah Carey and Lil Nas X will also be appearing as guests to spread festive cheers.

All the performances will be recorded virtually maintaining the safety precautions of the pandemic. Before the show kicks off on December 10, 9 pm ET, various of the artists have also opened up about this strange year shared their feelings with the listeners. Dua Lipa talked about her experience of recording the holiday special virtually where the ‘New Rules’ singer said,  “I am really excited, obviously everything takes a lil bit getting used to, you know creating these virtual performances and of course, I would have loved to be there on person and as much as we are missing the kind of live element of getting in front of people and performing, having that kind of human connection but hopefully we can bring some Christmas cheers to everyone in home and I got to do something little bit different and a little bit special in terms of the rendition of the songs which I am kind of excited about. I love to play around the music and make every experience unique and different.”

Lewis Capaldi or better say Santa Capaldi appeared in Mr. Claus costume and shared, “Hello all fans, it’s Capaldi here, hope you don’t wail, it’s been a terrible year, 2020 has been the worst year for sure, and hopefully your Christmas is not as bad as the rest of the year was, and hopefully in 2021, we can all see each other and be assured together soon.. And hopefully 2021 is not as bad as 2020 was, but if it is, erm, it’s gonna happen, hope you all are staying safe and have a lovely holiday.”

Sam Smith shared in a short clip. ‘What brings me hope now is someone passing by the street and smiling, or going to the shop and even though you can’t see their face, some sort of acknowledgment of kindness from strangers. For me, this year, generally reminded me that we are all going through this together as a human race and it is a perfect time for us to acknowledge that. And to be in it together. I have support from family and friends but going out in the streets, and these random acts of kindness from strangers is, I think the most warming thing that could be happening right now.”
