The holidays are supposed to be magical, right? Twinkling lights, cozy nights, family, friends… and maybe just a little too much pressure to feel perfectly festive. But, let’s be honest. For a lot of us, the season can stir up more heartache than holiday cheer. That’s exactly why I wrote my new single, “Christmas Miss Me”.

I resisted writing a Christmas song for years, even though my fans kept asking me to. Then one morning, I woke up and thought, ‘why not?’ The holidays can be tough, especially after a breakup, and I wanted to create a song that wasn’t about a fairytale love or picture-perfect family gatherings, but about remembering who you are.

I wanted a non-traditional holiday anthem, equal parts sass, self-respect and seasonal cheer. Co-writing with Steve Fee, we blended classic Christmas charm with modern confidence. The result? A song that says, “yeah, it hurts… but you’re still fabulous, and the party isn’t over.”

The lyrics are cheeky on purpose:

I returned those gifts I got for you and bought a dress, no it won’t be a silent night ’cause baby I confess, I’ll be rocking around the Xmas tree but it ain’t gonna be with you.

Writing them felt like therapy and the message is clear: heartbreak doesn’t get to steal your sparkle, especially during the holidays.

For me, “Christmas Miss Me” is about reclaiming joy. Cry for a minute if you need to, then fix your hair, put on that dress and remember that you’re the gift. You deserve to celebrate yourself, even if things haven’t gone the way you planned.

So whether you’re nursing a broken heart, navigating a messy family dinner or just need a little reminder of your own worth, this song is for you. Because the holidays can still be merry, and so can you!
