Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton Perform 'You Make It Feel Like Christmas'

Gwen Stefani performed “You Make It Feel Like Christmas” with Blake Shelton for her NBC holiday special, which aired on Tuesday. 

As Gossip Cop has reported, Stefani and Shelton co-wrote “You Make It Feel Like Christmas” for her holiday album of the same name. Released in October, the record features a mix of original songs and classic covers. The collection debuted at number one on the Top Holiday Albums chart and has peaked at number 23 on the Billboard 200.

“You Make It Feel Like Christmas” was the first single, and has hit number 15 on the Adult Contemporary list. Stefani and Shelton performed the song on “The Voice” earlier this month, marking the first time they sang the track on TV. At that point, though, the couple had already taped the NBC special. The one-hour program was actually first announced in early November.

In addition to Shelton, Stefani enlisted Ne-Yo, Seth MacFarlane, Chelsea Handler and Ken Jeong for appearances. Together they not only performed, but also put on skits. The festive event was filmed at a Los Angeles theater in front of a crowd of fans, family and friends. In an interview with TVInsider, the No Doubt front woman called performing with Shelton “for sure one of my favorite moments, and hopefully we were able to capture that.”

She went on, “There were probably 2,000 people, all friends and family, in the theater, and it was a really electric audience. Looking at Blake and singing this song that we’d written ­together — which feels like such an extension of both of us — was so special.” Stefani also included her three children to show off one of their family traditions: The clan always wallpapers an entryway for the kids to break through on Christmas morning.

Stefani recalled, “When we re-created it for the special, my kids were asking, ‘But are there presents on the other side?’ I was like, ‘No, it’s just for TV!'” The concert seemed to be gift enough. Check out video of Stefani’s performance with Shelton above!
