Carpenter, 25, debuted the official trailer for A Nonsense Christmas at the final U.S. show of her tour in Los Angeles on Monday, November 18.
“Christmas is coming early this year,” the “Espresso” singer teases at the beginning of the clip. “I wouldn’t count on a silent night.”

The video also reveals that the special will feature duets with Chappell Roan, Tyla, Shania Twain and Kali Uchis as well as appearances by Nico Hiraga, Quinta Brunson, Cara Delevingne, Sean Astin, Kyle Mooney, Megan Stalter, Jillian Bell and Owen Thiele.”
Brunson, 34, drops by in one scene to compliment Carpenter on her signature hairdo. “I love your bangs, they’re cute,” the Emmy winner says.
The Grammy nominee replies, “Thanks, I got them ’cause he ghosted me.”
