Exclusive: "My brother was the best gift in the world": Samantha Jade reveals why Christmas will always hold a special place in her heart
She's the beloved Australian singer, who is committed to charity work.
And Samantha Jade has revealed why Christmas is her favourite holiday season.
Speaking to "DailyMail.co.uk" on tuesday, the 31-year-old said the festive season holds a special place for her because it marks the time around when her younger brother was born:
'I was an only child until i was seven [when] my brother was born and i remember that Christmas was so special cause he was born in november so it was like i had a baby brother for Christmas", she said, "It was very special to me. I thought he was the best gift in the World", she added, "I just love the Christmas feel, the spirit, it's such a good time of the year."
Having released her new holiday-themed album this month, "The Magic Of Christmas", Samantha explained the inspiration behind her festive tunes:
"I've always wanted to do a Christmas record and it just felt right. I wanted to choose songs that really meant something to me - Elvis Presley was a big hit in our household, so i put "Blue Christmas" there for my dad", she revealed, "Amazing Grace" is one of the first songs i ever learned and i put that on for my grandparents. So just things that are nostalgic and close to my heart."
The blonde beauty will be returning to Perth to spend special time with family over Christmas, but is unsure of her 2019 new years day plans just yet:
"I actually haven't even thought about new year's yet! I'll do something fun and something laid back", the songstress stated, adding that her resolution is to put aside more time for herself and family, "Sometimes, i get so carried away obviously with the year. I think it's really important to take time with your family and yourself."
On tuesday, Samantha dropped jaws while storming the stage for the launch of the "Coca-Cola Salvation Army "It Feels Good To Give" Christmas Truck Tour".
Clad in a red "Coca-Cola" themed shirt and ripped denim jeans, the "ARIA Music Award"-winning singer was all smiles as she posed beside a glimmering tree.
To complete the festive look, the stunner styled her hair in smooth waves, wore a glamorous makeup look and donned a pair of sky-high pumps.
She later changed into a striking pattern dress that featured an abstract print, balloon sleeves and pocket detailing.
Speaking about her charity work, Samantha said:
"Not many people get to say they do what they love as a job. I know how lucky i am to be able to say that so it's very important to me to give back. Charity work is so fulfilling it's also there to do. If we can use our voices for a good cause, then why not?", she added, "That's why i really wanted to come on board with this "Coca-Cola" and "Salvos" initiative because "Secret Santa" is one of the most exciting things and this one is really going around the country giving, so it's pretty amazing."
