Cher is adding to the holiday magic this season.
The pop icon, who revealed that not receiving a writing credit on her hit song Believe cost her a pretty penny, will say ‘Hello New York’ as she joins the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball this weekend.
The 77-year-old hitmaker will be joining Olivia Rodrigo, SZA, Sabrina Carpenter, One Republic, Jelly Roll and Big Time Rush in spreading seasonal cheer at Madison Square Garden on Friday.
Pentatonix, Doechii, Melanie Martinez and David Kushner are also set to perform.
Cher released Christmas, her first holiday album, in October.

The LP includes classics such as Please Come Home For Christmas, Santa Baby and Run Rudolph Run.
She also teamed up with Darlene Love on Christmas (Baby Please Come Home), telling NPR it was a full circle moment.
‘I did background on that song when I was 17 years old. And I remember every second of it. It’s indelible because we were in the studio.’
‘You know, we were just hanging and we were inside the studio with Darlene and she started to sing the song. I think every one of us stopped breathing.’
The Billboard Music Award winner said she was ‘nervous’ about asking Stevie Wonder to sing with her on What Christmas Means to Me.
‘I was like, “Stevie, it’s me. And I’ve done What Christmas Means to Me. But there are parts of it that I just can’t do. And I’ve tried it, and I’m not good. I need you to come and do it,”‘ she revealed.
‘I said, “I’m sending it to you. So if you think it’s OK, will you do these parts?” And so he said, “Yeah.”‘
‘In the middle of the conversation, he said, “Cher, is this my song?” and I went, “Well, I wouldn’t be asking you to sing somebody else’s song.” And so then at the very minute he said, “Do you want me to play harmonica?” And it was like the sky just opened up,’ she said.
