The holiday special comes as a spin-off of Gomez’s popular HBO Max cooking series, Selena + Chef. In the previous series, Gomez encouraged her guest chefs to touch on charities of her choice. These highlights led to thousands of dollars in donations made to the organizations.
Gomez is seen looking very festive in a sneak peek photo, wearing a red apron and cheerful bow. Her house, which has been transformed into the series’s set, is all decked out for the occasion as well.
