Move over Mariah Carey, as all The Real Housewives of New York City fans want for Christmas is a sing-a-long with the Countess, Luann de Lesseps. This year, Luann has the perfect inspiration for her holiday wish list, as she shows off her vocal talents in her newest holiday jingle. Whether it is a Chanel bag, a Cartier watch, or a few Tiffany bangles, Luann has her eye on the prize and won't accept anything less from Santa this year.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic shut down New York City, the Countess was all set to hit the road with her new cabaret tour, aptly named Marry, F**k, Kill. Sadly, the show was forced to be put on pause, and there have been no plans on reopening it. Luann has become the butt of many jokes since cabaret took over her life. Fans and her co-stars grew tired of Luann talking about her singing career, but it looks like there may be a fresh dose to talk about soon.
In a shout-out to her followers on Instagram, Luann thanked her extensive support system by writing, "thank you fabulous #RHONY girls & lovely ladies of the @fortunesociety for being part of this very special, original new #Christmas song written & produced by @bruceroberts & @billystritch." The video has gotten over 33,000 views on YouTube already. The Countess then dropped her new single What Do I Want For Christmas? on Friday. Her RHONY co-stars accompanied the 56-year-old as they all embraced the holiday spirit. Each woman wore a Jovani dress. Thankfully, this performance saw no heckling from the peanut gallery. All of the New York City housewives had their own unique parts thanks to a memorable score compiled for each. Ramona Singer, Eboni K. Williams, Sonja Mogan, and Leah McSweeney all knocked it out of the park on the first take.
Luann spoke with Chicks in the Office and described the song as "catchy." The mother of two went on to joke that she included all of the women "so nobody could b**ch at me." The Countess is gearing up to go on the road with her holiday-themed cabaret tour, A Very Countess Christmas, which is set to open on November 30 in New York City. The tour is scheduled to end at the Hard Rock Casino in Tampa, Florida on December 28. After a tough year made worse by the pandemic, Luann shared with listeners that she was excited to get back on stage, saying, "I love it, to have the fans there and feel that love. And it's the holidays, so there's so much to celebrate."
The "Money Can't Buy You Class" singer has been a cabaret figurehead since 2018 and can often be seen promoting her latest song on RHONY. Bravo viewers were recently delivered a bombshell when Andy Cohen confirmed that The Real Housewives of New York City would be taking a pause after a lackluster season 13. The host shared that they had come to the hard decision to put the franchise on hold since they were looking into different casting options. For now, though, all fans want in their stocking is Luann's new holiday album so they can play it on repeat.
