Brenda Lee Shakes Up the Grand Ole Opry With Rockin’ Christmas Classic

Key points:

Eternal diva, Brenda Lee, cruises back out onto the Grand Ole Opry stage to perform her quintessential Christmas bop, “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree”.

Even at 76, the mighty “Little Miss Dynamite” shows no signs of fizzling out, wowing the crowd and inducing a whole lot of foot-tapping and singing along.

The festive jingle, which first rung through our radios back in 1958, has charted more than 10 million copies sold – securing its spot as the fourth best-selling Christmas single of all-time.

Lee’s performances never disappoint and this one was no exception, with her lively energy and signature vocals, she surely made spirits bright.

Well, honey, if you ask me, Brenda Lee lighting up the Grand Ole Opry was like sweet magnolia blossoms blooming on a frosty December morn! Y’all, this ain’t no ordinary senior citizen we’re talkin’ about – it’s the “Little Miss Dynamite” herself! Now, don’t let the “Little” part fool ya…this lady’s got spark that could outshine a Christmas tree. Despite her years, Miss Brenda’s still giving those youngins a run for their money. Just goes to show, darlin’, age is nothing but a number when you’re Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree! It ain’t Christmas till Brenda shows us how it’s done! Bless her heart!
