Demi Lovato Is Getting A Holiday Special
Demi Lovato may have been “Cool For The Summer,” but now she is switching gears to have a Winter Wonderland with a new holiday special for Roku. The streamer has ordered A Very Demi Holiday Special, according to Deadline, which will see the singer perform classic holiday songs such as “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” and “Jingle Bell Rock.” Lovato, 31, will also perform a surprise duet as well as tracks from her latest album, HOLY FVCK, and some of her classic hits. The special will launch on December 8.

Lovato said in the press release, “The holidays are such a special time of year, and I can’t wait to put my special twist on the celebrations.” As the musician is executive producing the special with OBB Pictures, OBB CEO Michael D. Ratner also shared a statement about the streaming event. “We’ve had the honor of collaborating with Demi a number of times, and across documentaries, music videos, live performances, and podcasts, we’ve seen first-hand how uniquely multi-talented Demi is,” Ratner said.
Per Deadline, the singer-songwriter is currently collaborating with OBB Pictures on their directorial debut. Next year, she’ll release Child Star for Hulu, which we reported will be a documentary about former famous child stars’ experiences growing up in the spotlight. Child Star will explore “how children are propelled to superstardom at a young age and how their rise to fame, fortune, and power affects their futures.” Lovato said back in March, “There is no better film or topic for my directorial debut than this story, which is close to home.” She said their project sheds light on “learning to protect our boundaries and becoming active advocates of our own destinies.” The singer, who made her television debut in 2002 when she was just ten years old, starred in Barney & Friends. Six years later, she booked her breakout role on Disney’s movie Camp Rock, alongside the Jonas Brothers.
