Having previously thrilled audiences with holiday films ‘All I Didn’t Want for Christmas,’ ‘Christmas Deja Vu,’ ‘Christmas in Harmony,’ ‘A Family Reunion Christmas,‘ and many more, stage and screen legend Loretta Devine has become a staple of the season for TV viewers.

Keeping her yuletide domination intact, the award-winning actress tag-teamed with Lifetime for the forthcoming flick ‘Deck the Hallways.’

Also starring Naika Toussaint and Jaime Callica, the heartwarming movie tells the story of a California tech exec (Toussaint) who returns to Chicago to visit her grandmother (Devine) – an event full of surprises including trading old traditions for bold new adventures, canceling the cherished holiday party her late grandfather started, and potentially finding love in the form of a rekindled crush.

Ahead of its premiere on Lifetime on Saturday (December 6), hop inside to see the official ‘Hallways’ trailer.

Coco Jones may have driven her debut studio album ‘Why Not More‘ to the top of R&B charts earlier this year, but recently she (literally) drove ‘Thang 4 U‘ – a favorite from its critically acclaimed setlist – to the stage for a performance on UPROXX Visionaries.

Blazing the UPROXX Studios XR Stage with a one-of-a-kind visual experience, Jones took vocal flight while delivering her latest live rendition of the Cardiak-produced cut.

“Got a thang for you / Baby, I would even go insane for you / Tellin’ us it probably won’t last, don’t care what they say / I’m ready to cross without lookin’ both ways,” she wails over the sultry production.
