Mickey Guyton is welcoming the holiday season with unparalleled joy, as becoming a mother has transformed her perspective on Christmas. The country singer revealed that her 4-year-old son has rekindled the childhood excitement she once felt, making the holidays more magical and meaningful.
“Christmas has now started becoming magical for me again,” Guyton expressed, noting that her son is at the heart of the celebrations, making the season feel less stressful and more enjoyable. This revived spirit has inspired her latest festive album, “Feels Like Christmas,” which encapsulates a collection of upbeat, joyful tracks. Avoiding the traditional melancholic holiday songs, Guyton focused on creating original, fun compositions such as “Sugar Cookie” and an energetic duet with the legendary Michael Bolton.
“I just wanted to bring uplifting messages to people,” she reflected. “Christmas can remind you of loss, but I wanted this album to be pure joy.”
In addition to music, Guyton cherishes family traditions during this time. She shared details of her family’s unique holiday celebration, which includes a competitive “international cookout competition” where each member prepares a dish from a different country, all vying for a cash prize.
Her holiday music favorites include timeless classics like Brenda Lee’s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree,” Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” as well as songs from “A Charlie Brown Christmas” and Whitney Houston’s “The Preacher’s Wife” soundtrack.
Mickey Guyton also made a striking appearance at the 59th Annual CMA Awards, where she stepped onto the Nashville red carpet in an eye-catching dark denim ensemble paired with sparkling bejeweled slingback pumps. Her stylish footwear featured a crystal brooch and slim pointed toe, adding a touch of glam to her look, which she complemented with silver fringe details and delicate jewelry.
As she celebrates the holiday season with renewed enthusiasm through her family, new music, and stylish public appearances, Mickey Guyton is truly embracing the spirit of the holidays. This season is not just about festive cheer—it’s also a celebration of joy, love, and togetherness.
