While some families can’t wait to reunite for the holidays, others can’t wait until they’re over – a stance Camille Winbush takes as “Carly” in the new BET+ Christmas movie ‘Holiday Hideaway.’

Also starring Vivica A. Fox, Leonard Earl Howze, Rodney Van Johnson, and Novi Brown, the film tells the story of a travel writer who “decides to take an assignment that will keep her far away from her family at Christmas” after suffering through a disastrous Thanksgiving with them. Over the course of her ‘hideaway’ she learns valuable lessons about forgiveness and fighting for love.

Directed by Cole Patterson and Lamese Williams, hop inside to see the official trailer of the forthcoming yuletide flick ahead of its November 24 premiere.

Christmas may be a time of love and togetherness for many around the world, but some of us know all too well the kitchen and dinner table can be an all-out warzone when the family reunites.

That point is reiterated aplenty by the “Miles sisters” in the forthcoming holiday film, ‘The Christmas Clapback.’

Starring Nadine Ellis (“Kira Miles”), Porscha Coleman (“Tisha Miles”), Candace Maxwell (“Jasmine Miles”), and a host of other familiar faces, the yuletide flick – directed by Robin Givens – tells the story of a sibling trio who “battle each other for a chance to win the neighborhood Christmas Church Cook-Off competition” but are thrown off course when a “vivacious social media influencer enters the competition and forces the sisters to decide if they’ll rise together or fall divided.”

Multi-hyphenate diva Jennifer Lopez is no stranger for making headlines after tackling beloved musical numbers from some of history’s most celebrated vocal divas.

When not rocking the GRAMMYs  with a Motown tribute that featured her singing Teena Marie‘s eternal jam, ‘Square Biz,’ Lopez has tried her hand at Barbra Streisand‘s ‘Enough is Enough,’ Toni Braxton‘s ‘Unbreak My Heart,’ and even took a crack at her arch nemesis Mariah Carey‘s modern Christmas classic, ‘All I Want For Christmas’ (as we reported here).

And when it comes to Christmas, J.Lo has never shied away from showing off her festive spirit.

In 2020, she teamed with renown vocal coach and good friend Stevie Mackey for an updated take on the holiday tune, ‘It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year’ – a number they later shared a live party performance of on Instagram.

Already excited for holiday season 2022, Mackey took to YouTube recently to revisit even more scenes from that epic yuletide gathering including one where Lopez and powerhouse vocalist Shelea gathered around the piano to belt Whitney Houston‘s inaugural chart-topper, 1985’s ‘Saving All My Love For You.’
