Speaking in a recent interview, the singer lamented on the hardships of juggling her judging duties on the X Factor with her music career.

Happy Christmas to all our That Grape Juice readers. We hope the holidays are treating you oh so well.

In embracing the the festive spirit, our From The Vault pick this week is Destiny’s Child‘s ‘8 Days Of Christmas’.

Released as the first single of their holiday album of the same name, the cut – which was released in Winter 2001) is a fan favourite and a R&B classic.

The track amazingly blends traditional hooks (the core of the song is an interpolation of the carol ‘Twelve Days Of Christmas’) and modern Urban beats. It also doesn’t hurt that their world-renown 3-part harmonies are on full display – showcased at its most stellar with the choir-like breakdown.

The accompanying video sees the three diva’s dressed in sexy Santa outfits, parading around a Christmas-themed toy store, complete with a carousel and all. All very standard-festive-fare. Yet, we love it all the same.

So, as you stuff your belly with all that fierce food, hit ‘PLAY’ and let DC3 take you back!

Merry Christmas!

Your thoughts?

Myself (Sam), and all of us here at That Grape Juice, take this opportunity to wish you all very Merry Christmas and a fruitful New Year.

The last 12 months have particularly great months for That Grape Juice, yet none of that would have been possible without all of YOUR support. And for that, we are so very thankful.

So here’s hoping you eat, drink, and be merry with your nearest and dearest.

Merry Christmas!

With the X Factor finally over, many a contestant are on their 14th minute of fame. However, one act we’ll sure be seeing more of is a certain Misha B.

A sure-fire shoo-in for the final, the 19 year old’s dreams were dashed when tactical judging turned her into one of the show’s most controversial acts.

Yet, while the party responsible for that likely won’t be relevant in a year down the line, Misha continues to prove herself worthy of the attention heaped on her since exiting the ITV show (4th place). Attention which reportedly includes a label bidding war; and attention which could see her pocket a contract worth more than actual the winning act.

Wonder what the hype’s about? Well, our friends over at SBTV snagged Misha for a festive acoustic session. Watch Ms. B soar with ‘Silent Night’ after the jump…
