Mariah Carey dazzles in a skimpy silver bra while Madonna poses with the QUEEN in the best celebrity Christmas snaps
WHILE most of us were pulling on our festive jumpers and cracking out the bubbles at breakfast this Christmas the great and good of the celebrity world were doing exactly the same – with a few exceptions.
Dazzling Mariah Carey looked like she’d just fallen from the top of her super-sparkly tree as she celebrated in a sexy diamante bikini with sequin-studded UGG Boots.
She clutched a cocktail in one hand and raised a toast to the festive season in a moment that was captured on camera and posted to her Instagram page.
The pop diva later proved just how huge her tree was as she stood alongside it for another picture.
Meanwhile fellow singer Madonna was more interested in a brush with royalty than a roast dinner.
As Queen Elizabeth made her annual speech, the Like A Virgin singer gave her best sassy pose as she sat by her TV to get them both in shot.
She cheekily captioned the shot: “We both wish all of our loved ones a very Merry X-Mas!!”
Actress Eva Longaria plumped for a lavish Christmas on a beach – yet damaged to pack a huge tree in the process.
The Desperate Housewives star sizzles in a sexy kaftan which flashed her cleavage as she stood alongside the tinsel-filled fir.
A very racy Jodie Marsh turned things up a whole other level in her see-through lingerie.
The ex glamour model seemingly couldn’t waste any time to change as she eagerly headed downstairs to see what gifts Santa had delivered.
Instead, she stayed dressed in her flesh-flashing nightie which showed off her super-toned body through the mesh panels.
A red floral design covering her chest and tummy added a festive edge, and the award-winning bodybuilder took care to chose a headband with matching roses as well as a lipstick in the same shade for her December 25 outfit.
Yet for the rest, festive-themed attire ruled.
Gordon Ramsay and his clan posed for a picture in reindeer pyjamas before their foodie session began while Made in Chelsea’s Spencer Matthews opted to wear his turkey on his head.
This Morning presenter Ruth Langsford opted for reindeer antlers as her accessory of choice while Corrie star Catherine Tyldesley chose to take on the role of a sexy elf in a saucy green suit.
Ex Towie star Billie Mucklow was clearly feeling that vibe, decking out her son and boyfriend Andy Carroll in adorable matching Elf attire.
Things weren’t too different in This Morning presenter Phillip Schofield’s household.
He went for a classic festive knit jumper as he posed by his tree, while Love Island winner Nathan Massey kept things simple in a Santa hat as he posed with girlfriend Cara De La Hoyde.
Emmerdale star Adam Thomas went the whole hog as he kitted himself out in a full Santa suit while Towie star Kate Wright opted for a cheeky jumper dress with an image of Father Christmas on as she posed with a pal.
McFly singer Tom Fletcher and his wife Giovanna went for comfort over style in their snowman dressing gowns.
For former Towie star Amy Childs, it seemed cradling her baby bump was all the festive spirit she needed.
Excited Amy posted the picture onto her Instagram and wrote: “Merry Christmas from me, brad and bump 👶🏼🎄 can’t wait for next year when our baby is here with us!”
Her former co-star Sam also kept thing simple, with a black and white shot of her clan, while Megan McKenna beamed with delight as she was surrounded by a pile of designer bags.
Spice Girl Geri Horner, another of the expectant mum clan, showed off her bum as she posed in her festive home.
Celebrity Big Brother star Chloe Khan opted to dress up her dog instead.
Wearing skinny jeans and a matching black jumper, she perched on her kitchen table and puckered up to her pet.
Myley Cyrus, meanwhile, gave Santa a smooch while Taylor Swift puckered up with pals as they rounded off December 25 with a splash of sauce.
