What celebs are doing at Christmas

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt

Angelina Jolie said: "We love sitting up in the middle of the night wrapping the presents and doing the stockings. That's the best thing about being a mum and dad. You get to share those nights together."

Sunday Night Project host Justin Lee Collins

Justin Lee Collins says he wakes up when his little boys come running in with their stockings. The family then open their presents slowly until the rest of the family arrive.

Matthew, Dan and Tord from The Wombats

The Wombats say they feel the pressure to get their parents some decent presents now they are big time rockers. Not quite villas in Santorini but maybe a weekend in Paris.

Chris O'Dowd

Chris O'Dowd from the IT crowd said: "I'll go swimming on Christmas Day and on St Stephen's Day, which is my favourite day of the year. We'll go for a treasure hunt in the nearby forest."

James, Ben and Simon from Biffy Clyro

Biffy Clyro say they all spend time with their families. Drummer Ben (middle) said: "Christmas for me is going to be quite family-orientated. I'm going to spend time with my wife and boy."

Louis Walsh

For Louis Walsh Christmas is also spent at home with his family in the west of Ireland. He said: "There's like nine of us. It's always the same thing. Lots of food, lots of drink, a few arguments and silly telly."

Amelle, Keisha and Heidi from Sugababes

Sugababes say they all spend Christmas with their families. They normally have a look at what's on television and record lots of shows and films.

Rhydian

Rhydian from X Factor 2007 will be spending Christmas at home. He said: "Christmas morning usually I have a lie-in and wait for brother to get extremely excited about opening his presents. He's 27."
