A Karaoke Surprise From Heineken

by The Hairpin Sponsors

The holiday season is in full swing, and revelers across the globe are transitioning into holiday-themed karaoke. Heineken is paying tribute to this season with an epic karaoke surprise called #CarolKaraoke. They surprised a group of karaoke singers with the chance to perform their favorite holiday tune in front of an audience of thousands. Their performances were streamed to an NBA Jumbotron, a Times Square billboard, and thousands of NYC taxi cabs. And a few of them were able to brave the crowds and rocked the mic with some festive holiday hits.

Meanwhile Heineken conducted a survey to figure out that the top three most beloved karaoke songs are “Jingle Bell Rock,” “Winter Wonderland,” and “All I Want for Christmas is You.” More than half of their survey respondents admitted that it’s tougher to sing karaoke in front of strangers than with familiar faces, but that didn’t apply to the brave folks in this video. Would you be able to perform your holiday karaoke favs in front of thousands? Share your answer on Twitter with #CarolKaraoke.
