Hey, CelebSecrets4U readers!
On Thursday (Dec. 4), we had the chance to join The Grinch, Max the Dog, and the Who’s of Whoville to Light the Towering “Grinchmas” Tree and celebrate the Holiday Season at Universal Studios Hollywood.
The event started with a variety of Whoville musical numbers and a speech by MayWho, the Mayor of Whoville. Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti even joined in on the fun by reading in Seussian rhyme, presented Universal Studios Hollywood and The Grinch with the first ever “Grinchmas” Mayoral Proclamation as The Entertainment Capital of L.A.
The Merry Grinchmas Holiday season was kicked off with a spectacular tree lighting ceremony, glistening snowfall, and a dazzling fireworks display.
The nighttime tree lighting extravaganza featured a star-studded line up including Yvette Nicole Brown, Alexa PenaVega, and Carlos PenaVega who helped the Whoville Who’s illuminate the towering “Grinchmas” tree.
The spirited Grinchmas event captured guests’ imagination with a variety of actives such as the Who-ville Post office, Trim Up the Tree Lot, Who-bilicious Cookie Dec-Who-rating, and Story Time with Cindy Lou Who.
Grinchmas runs weekends on December 6-7 and 13-14, then continues daily from December 19, 2014 through January 3, 2015.
