Christmas is just around the corner, and celebrities in Hollywood have been busy making their lists, checking it twice – regardless of whether they’ve been naughty or nice!
Dixie Chick Natalie Maines is planning on giving Howard and Beth Stern the new paperback, “Awkward Family Pet Photos” for Christmas this year.
“Natalie is an animal lover and I know that Howard and wife are big animal people, and I hope they like it,” author Doug Chernack told FOXNews.com. “For anybody that is a pet lover, this book is a great opportunity to have a laugh–we’re all a little bit crazy with our families, and that extends to our pets,” Chernack said of the collection of wacky photos of pets and the people who love them.

Jennifer Lopez may not have a pet, but her backup dancer and rumored boy toy Casper Smart is helping the diva get what she wants–or at least, what her twins Max and Emme want–this Christmas. Smart recently picked up two Rubik’s Cubes by Hasbro for J-Lo’s offspring–or, at least that’s what he claimed. Perhaps he was just helping Lopez get in touch with her inner-’80s child.
Also keeping things childlike with wonder this season is Hugh Hefner’s runaway bride, Crystal Harris. On the 25-year-old’s wish list this year, “Anything Disney–I’m a ‘Little Mermaid’ fan,” Harris told FOXNews.com exclusively. “And jewelry. I like simple jewelry the best.”

Harris has definitely simplified things since selling her $90,000 engagement ring from the 85-year-old Playboy founder and CEO earlier this year–Harris told FOXNews.com that she “just wants to be with (her) family and friends” this Christmas.
She may be more like a runaway wife than runaway bride, but “Real Housewives of D.C.” star Michaele Salahi and new beau, Journey guitarist Neal Schon, got their gift from Santa early this year. "We both have what we want now and forever–we have each other,” the happy couple told FOXNews.com exclusively. “Our first Christmas together! To give and receive to one another is our love!”

Another “Real” housewife is a little bit more practical with her Christmas list. “Christian Louboutin brown Bollywood suede peep toes, a Chanel sequined patent calf skin bag with chain, a Dance Dance Revolution arcade game, and a light blue convertible Ferrari with tan interior,” party planner Dana Wilkey told FOXNews.com. The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star, an avid Barbie collector, also hopes to see the Bob Mackie Circus Barbie Doll under the tree this year.
Tiny troublemaker Tila Tequila is looking for another soul–or soles–this Christmas. “I hope to find love so I can share this magical season,” Tequila told FOXNews.com exclusively. “But if that's not going to happen then I guess I can settle for a new pair of Louboutin thigh high boots!”
Made popular by Katy Perry, Jessica Biel Demi Moore, Many stars are hoping to see a silk Penelope Parasol under the tree this Christmas. "They're a big hit with celebs," said make-up artist and Penelope designer Lynn Taylor tells FOXNews.com.

"Mad Men's Christina Hendricks put it best: 'They're a lovely and romantic accessory.'"
The parasols retail for $189.
Comedian Chelsea Handler and her partner in crime Chuy are fans of Twitten, the mitten made for two! Hand-made in Peru with local and natural alpaca and wool knits, Twitten is fair trade and donates 20 percent of its profits to the Bodhi Fund, which helps provide access to cancer treatment. The Twitten line retails from $28-45.

What do Demi Lovato, Natasha Bedingfield, Johnny Depp and John Travolta all have in common? They’re all fans of the Wi Spa in Los Angeles’ Koreatown. “Celebrities love coming here because no one recognizes them–and there’s no paparazzi,” a source told FOXNews.com. “It’s a really laid-back vibe–you never know if you’re going to be sitting across from Demi Lovato in the hot tub.” Memberships start at $350, and Wi’s signature Korean buff and massage treatments start at $110. Gift certificates are available and make the perfect stocking stuffer for your favorite spa-loving celeb–or spa-loving celeb fan.
While everyone else is bustling about, searching for the perfect gift, Gary Busey, star of ABC’s upcoming “Celebrity Wife Swap,” isn’t interested in material things this season.
“All I want for Christmas is love and respect,” Busey told FOXNews.com exclusively. “Because that's what I'm giving to everyone.”
