Delta Goodrem gets in the festive spirit as she stuns in figure-hugging red dress in a sneak peek at her star-studded Christmas special

Delta Goodrem is already getting into the festive spirit and recently shared an exciting sneak peek of her upcoming star-studded Channel Nine Christmas special.

The Australian pop star, 40, posted a trailer on Instagram for her TV special called Christmas with Delta in Hollywood, which puts a fresh spin on her annual show with Channel Nine.

The brunette bombshell showed off her youthful looks and flawless skin in the trailer as she rocked her best face in a figure-hugging red dress as she embraced Santa Claus in a huge hug.

The upcoming program will be filmed in the exclusive Los Angeles suburb of Hollywood Hills and will feature a host of A-List guest stars, Kylie Minogue, Robbie Williams, Craig David and Paul Kelly.

Several other A-Listers, including Pat Monahan of Train and Howie D of the Backstreet Boys, will perform.

It looks to be event TV not to be missed, as Delta and her A-List friends celebrate the holidays in style, while the singer performs some beloved Christmas carols.

Delta captioned the post with some exciting words. “Bringing the festive spirit and love to your home for the fifth year in a row, but for the first time ever all the way from LA.”

“With the most gifted and gracious group of artists, talents and friends in the room,” she continued.

“We’re celebrating being away from home in the Australian way, as we bring back some of our favorite performances from years past. I’m so proud of this show!’

The program will be shown on Channel Nine and 9Now on Sunday, December 22 at 7pm.

This is the fifth year that Delta has hosted its own Christmas special for Nine, and the first to be filmed outside Australia.

In 2021, the program had to be renamed Delta from Christmas onwards to avoid confusion with the Covid-19 strain of the same name that was circulating at the time.

Channel Nine renamed the program Christmas with Delta Goodrem to avoid misunderstandings.

Delta indicated at the time that it was quietly excited that the new Omicron variant was now the name on everyone’s lips.

The Born to Try star admitted she was relieved she was no longer synonymous with the virus.

Delta said on Sunrise that while she is “not happy” that the pandemic is still ongoing, she was happy to see fewer negative headlines featuring her name.

“Sure, let’s move on. I don’t want to hear about this terrible Delta!’ she told the hosts.

“Away with her, away with her,” she added. “I was here first!”

Co-host Natalie Barr commented that it “must have been hard” hearing her name in the news every day when Delta was the most common Covid strain.

“It was definitely confusing seeing you in the morning. I’d get up and I’d hear ‘Delta danger’ or ‘Delta out of control’ and think, ‘What? What?’

The former Neighbors star joked that she would sometimes respond to breaking news bulletins with: ‘What have I done? What happened?’

The admission comes after Delta revealed her wedding plans to fiancé Matthew, 37, have taken a back seat due to her hectic schedule.

She told WHO magazine that she is so wrapped up in her busy life that the couple has yet to sit down and plan their big day.

Delta and Matthew, who have been dating since 2017, got engaged last September during a romantic getaway to Malta.

She confessed, “Don’t ask about the wedding. It’s been very busy, but very busy, the kind I’ve never been happier with.”
