As winter lights begin to glow across the globe, Christina Aguilera has welcomed the season in breathtaking style. On November 25, 2025, she unveiled a live rendition of “My Favorite Things,” filmed atop a Paris rooftop with the Eiffel Tower shimmering behind her like a gilded holiday crown.
A Preview of a Parisian Holiday Spectacle
This special performance offers a first glimpse into her upcoming concert film, Christina Aguilera: Christmas in Paris, arriving in theaters December 14 and 21 in more than 700 cinemas nationwide.
A Performance Wrapped in Parisian Magic
The video captures Aguilera on a winter-kissed terrace above the Musée du Quai Branly, performing for a private audience of just 250 guests. Behind her, the Eiffel Tower glows like an illuminated Christmas tree as she breathes new life into the Rodgers & Hammerstein classic.
With a full orchestra, dancers, and a festive set surrounding her, Aguilera stands radiant in an ivory satin corset-style bodysuit, red heels, and black gloves. Her vocals soar over the swirling lights, drifting snow, and Parisian skyline — turning the moment into a blend of concert spectacle and winter fairytale.
Introducing the project, Aguilera shared a heartfelt sentiment:
“When the magic of Christmas meets the magic of Paris… something truly extraordinary happens.”
A Grand Return — Marking 25 Years of Holiday Magic
This release doesn’t just open the holiday season; it commemorates the 25th anniversary of Aguilera’s beloved holiday album My Kind of Christmas.
With decades of memories behind her original Christmas classic, this new Paris-filmed project brings both nostalgia and reinvention — a reminder of Aguilera’s enduring vocal firepower. “My Favorite Things (Live from the Eiffel Tower)” sets the tone for a film that promises grandeur, intimacy, and emotional depth.
