Ooh!
Feels amazing to be here
in the beautiful city of Paris.
Doing songs
not only from my debut Christmas album,
but celebrating Christmas and this time of year
here is spectacular and so special.
And to be doing it with all of you in front of me...
Thank you so much for joining me tonight.
Such a lovely evening under the stars.
In front of the Eiffel Tower-- it's so magical.
So, yes, very, very excited to be here
and to have come full circle.
We're celebrating 25 years of my Christmas album.
As we head into my favorite time of the year
and celebrate this holiday season,
we wish-- my wish, my wish--
is that we all keep holding onto that hope
for brighter days for each other,
and for the simple power of love.
This song is called "Someday at Christmas."

[cheering]
Whoo!
So fun.
[piano plays gentle melody]
This next song is pure nostalgia for me.
Every time I hear it, I'm transported back
to those cozy, classic Christmases.
They're the best. The lights, the laughter.
Memories with family, fireplaces.
I can think of a thousand things.
Decorating the tree, going to shop for the Christmas tree.
I mean... Anyway...
Uh, that feeling when time just slows down,
just for a moment.
It's also extra special,
because, yes, we are celebrating the 25th anniversary
of my Christmas album, My Kind of Christmas,
which I did sing this song 25 years ago
as little baby Christina. [laughs]
Which brings me back to being so grateful
that 25 years later, I'm able to sing this song
in a new way, as a grown woman,
with own my daughter in the back.
[laughs] Backstage watching me.
And where I get to c... celebrate and recreate
special memories for her and my family,
as I'm sure all of you have your own traditions
and things that you love to do.
That's the magic of the holidays.
Passing it down generations.
But when I think of this song,
of course, I think of Nat King Cole.
I love the greats at Christmas. The nostalgia.
The classic, timeless, legendary voices that originated them.
Means so much to me to embody
and be inspired by. So,
tonight, let's take a trip...
...down memory lane
together under the Paris lights.
Here's "The Christmas Song."

We couldn't let the night go by
without playing tribute to one of my favorites--
the incomparable Ella Fitzgerald.
The next song is such a beautiful reminder
that the holiday season doesn't end on Christmas day.
There is something magical about the space
between Christmas and New Year's.
It's a moment to breathe,
to reflect and to look ahead.
It's about fresh starts, new energy
and remembering that it's never too late to start over.
Here is "What Are You Doing New Year's, New Year's Eve."

[Debussy's "Clair de Lune" playing]
CHRISTINA: Standing here in Paris,
I can feel the rhythm of the city,
the pulse of art, of history, of reinvention.
And maybe that's why this moment feels so right.
Because after 25 years,
I'm still evolving.
♪
Still discovering new sides of who I am.
The journey hasn't always been easy.
Growth never is.
But every challenge, every reinvention
has brought me closer to mysel.
When I started out, I had fire.
That raw, unstoppable energy
that comes from chasing a drea.
Now, I still have that fire,
but it burns differently.
It's steadier, deeper, more purposeful.
Reinvention isn't running away from the past.
It's honoring it while making space for what's next.
Music has been the constant through every chapter.
It's my language, my diary,
my connection to the world.
Through every sound, every lyric,
every reinvention,
I found new ways to speak my truth.
Paris feels like the perfect mirror for that.
Timeless, but ever-changing,
rooted in tradition, yet fearless about the future.
It reminds me that artistry never stops evolving.
The city rebuilds itself every day.
Yet somehow, it always remains Paris.
♪
I think that's the gift of longevity--
learning how to change without losing yourself.
To trust your instincts.
To keep creating, even when no one's watching.
To follow the spark that started it all.
After 25 years,
I don't take any of this for granted.
The music, the audience,
the chance to still do what I love.
As I look to the future,
I feel that same spark
that brought me here in the first place.
The desire to create,
to connect, to keep evolving,
because the heart of it all is love.
Twenty-five years later,
I'm still here, still grateful,
still inspired and still believing
that the best chapters
are yet to be written.

["Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" playing]
So...
I want to thank all of you guys for being out here tonight
in this beautiful city of love.
It's been so magical being here with all of you.
I want to thank every single person
on this stage with me tonight.
From the orchestra to the dancers
to the choir, to everybody that was a part of this.
And of course, my amazing band.
Rob Lewis, on the keys, did all the instrumentation.
It's amazing. I'm so lucky.
I feel so grateful this holiday season
to have such an amazing team behind me
to make all of this magic happen.
Thank you so, so much. I love you so much.
Have a merry Christmas, everybody!
[laughs] Whoo!
