Celebs like American Idol winner Kris Allen, The Jonas Brothers, Céline Dion, Mariah Carey’s husband Nick Cannon and others were on hand to pre-tape live performances at Disney World this week for airing on TV on Xmas night. Here are a few pics of these celebs posing for fun pics at the Magic Kingdom this week and some deets about the upcoming TV special set to air on Xmas:
‘Tis the season to be merry at Disney Parks, when the 26th annual “Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade,” featuring award-winning musical talent and iconic stars performing in this year’s television special, airs December 25 on ABC-TV. This year’s show promises to dazzle viewers with must-see performances by Celine Dion and Stevie Wonder. Pop sensations the Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato spread joy to all as enchanting sounds from world-renowned musical artist Yanni and his Yanni Voices echo through the park. “American Idol” Season 8 winner, Kris Allen, will perform and “Wizards of Waverly Place” star Selena Gomez will make a special appearance in the annual telecast. From the newest Disney Princess – Tiana – to Mickey Mouse and all his ‘toon pals,’ beloved Disney characters will embrace the holiday spirit aboard awe-inspiring floats that “deck the halls” as they glide through the Disney theme parks.

The two-hour televised special will air nationally in High-definition December 25 on ABC-TV at 10 a.m. Eastern and 9 a.m. Central, Mountain and Pacific times.
Sounds cute, right? I love me some Disney family fun so this might be worth watchin’ but I actually prefer enjoying my Disney fun in person. Nothing takes the place of the fun you can have hanging out at Disneyland in person. Even so … I prolly won’t be able to resist watching Céline Dion bust out in seizures as she belts her those holiday tunes. I guess it might be fun to watch. Will you be tuning in for this?
