Funniest Celebrity Christmas Videos We’ll Never Not Find Hilarious

Whether you’re a Christmas obsessive who’s been blasting Mariah Carey since the second you closed the door on the last of your trick-or-treaters or a more sceptical Scrooge, one thing that can’t be denied is that all of the twinkling fairy lights, colourful decorations and relentlessly-upbeat music that come with the festive season are a great antidote to the gloom and darkness that’s otherwise associated with the UK at the height of winter.

One key way of spreading festive cheer is, of course, with a big old laugh, and much like the films and songs we revisit every December, many of us will also have hilarious – and, indeed, ridiculous – seasonal videos that we like to dust off.

So, to help see in the festive season in style, we’ve rounded up some of our absolute favourites that are guaranteed to raise a smile no matter how cold the weather or grey the skies…

We’re starting with a true Christmas cracker – this moment from back in the 90s when Patti LaBelle was supposed to be performing at the lighting of the White House Christmas tree, but found herself without backing singers (or, more to the point, her much-needed cue cards)

If ever you’re tired of telling people ‘Merry Christmas’ all December long, RuPaul has a fun – and, to be honest, very odd – alternative…

…And so, for that matter, does Kat Slater

The late, great Paul O’Grady and Cilla Black’s tune-optional cover of Baby, It’s Cold Outside pretty much sums up everything we loved up about seeing them on screen together

Sticking with the ‘musical’ (and we use that term loosely) theme, this all-star performance of Do They Know It’s Christmas from a Stars In Their Eyes special back in the day just gets more and more astonishing as it goes on

Now, admittedly it’s tough to narrow down one specific funniest moment from Gavin & Stacey’s top-tier Christmas specials, but this performance from the late Margaret John is pretty much perfect

Rewatching Jade Novah’s Christmas divas parody is a festive must (her Beyoncé is particularly uncanny)

Hands up – who remembers this advert from way back in 2007, when the Spice Girls not only tried to convince us all that they shopped in Tesco, but that they all frequented the same one, at the exact same time?

This ‘lip sync’ between RuPaul and Michelle Visage is a whole lot of festive fun

But the less said about Michael Bublé’s bro-heavy rendition of Santa Baby (or should we say, Buddy) the better…

While 90s Disney kids will already know that the oft-overlooked Beauty And The Beast sequel The Enchanted Christmas is low-key nightmare fuel, this line delivery from Tim Curry as Forte is just exceptional

Saturday Night Live has gifted viewers countless hilarious festive musical numbers over the years, but special mention has to go to this extremely-relatable offering led by Emma Stone

Oh, and Kristen Wiig is, as ever, an absolute scene-stealer in this particular sketch

We’d sort of deleted this Mariah Carey Walkers advert from our memory… but watching her take the tiniest bite of a prawn cocktail crisp at the end of the clip is just amazing

Meanwhile, every single second of future Bafta winner Jane McDonald’s 1998 Christmas medley is the stuff of absolute joy

Every second of this 16-minute video of Trixie Mattel and Katya reviewing Dolly Parton’s 2020 Christmas movie is an absolute scream

And so, as JB Gill from JLS observed…

…to all, and to all a good night.
