International Pop Star SHAB Rings in the Holidays with a Glamorous New Rendition of ‘Santa Baby’
This festive season, SHAB is here to make your holidays shine. The international pop sensation brings her signature style to the iconic Christmas classic ‘Santa Baby’, releasing her much-anticipated cover out now. Cosy yet glamorous, this high-energy track is a perfect invitation to wrap yourself in holiday sparkle and celebrate the season with style.
SHAB’s rendition puts a fresh, modern spin on ‘Santa Baby’, blending bold, dynamic drums and deep bass with her playful, sultry vocals. High on festive energy with a hint of Persian flair, the track offers a unique, danceable twist that is sure to enchant fans of both classic holiday tunes and contemporary pop. Accompanied by a stunning music video that perfectly completes the refreshed sparkle of this alluring take on a classic, SHAB shines against a backdrop of red décor, gleaming presents, and gentle flurries of snow. She moves playfully and seductively, delivering a modern, danceable twist on a timeless favorite we’ll enjoy for years to come. SHAB and her dancers are also outfitted in her DropTrou brand bodysuits, a trend-forward new brand and collection launching soon.
‘Santa Baby’ is truly the icing on the Christmas cake of her soaring momentum. The past year has marked a new high point for SHAB, solidifying her status as one of pop’s most inspiring global voices. The year started with the February 2025 release of her album ‘ONE SUITCASE’, which was supported by an extensive radio & television promotional tour across America and has resonated globally. SHAB also marked a milestone with her first U.S. Pop Top 40 hit, the sassy ‘80s-inspired fan favourite ‘Lipstick’. And with recent singles ‘Dance ’Til You’re Free’, ‘Afterglow’, and ‘Dirty’ igniting the charts, SHAB launches into 2026 with unstoppable energy and poised for yet another defining year in her meteoric rise.
SHAB has additionally been lighting up stages across the U.S. while touring with the UK boy band The Wanted on their revival tour, The Wanted 2.0; delivering standout shows to ecstatic crowds in New York, Los Angeles, and beyond. As to her New York performance:
Her sound and stage presence channelled the golden era of early-2000s pop divas, evoking Christina Aguilera’s fire and Britney Spears’ Toxic-era edge—especially during her fierce, flirtatious performances of Say It With Your Chest, Sexual, and Lipstick. The crowd responded in kind, singing, dancing, and cheering as if watching a global superstar in the making.

With dazzling dance routines, shimmering sequins, and undeniable charisma, SHAB has proven that it’s not just her radiant hits that are unmissable – but her performances too.
A refugee from fundamentalist Iran, SHAB, during late 2024 proudly announced her new role as an ambassador for Choose Love, a UK-based charity dedicated to supporting displaced persons worldwide. Her personal history aligns perfectly with the organisation’s mission, making her a compelling and authentic voice for the cause. In a powerful show of solidarity with refugees globally, SHAB has pledged all profits from sales of the ‘ONE SUITCASE’ album to Choose Love. Through her advocacy for female empowerment and the women of Iran, she hopes to raise awareness for Choose Love alongside high-profile supporters such as Oprah, Benedict Cumberbatch, Julia Roberts, Gemma Chan, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, James Corden, Dermot O’Leary, and Olivia Colman, among many others.
