Singer JUJU, actress Saki Fukuda and comedy duo Harisenbon (Haruna Kondo and Haruka Minowa), got into the holiday spirit at the Japan premiere of “Disney’s A Christmas Carol” this week at Roppongi Hills Arena.

JUJU stood in front of a giant 10-meter-tall tree and sang “Ikutsu Demo Kawareru Kikkake ni Nareba” and the movie’s theme song, “Present.”

Harisenbon’s Haruka told the singer that she would be spending Christmas with a man, to which JUJU replied “I wish I had that kind of luck.”

The singer finished up by singing “Morobito Kozorite” with a 1,000-member choir.

“Disney’s A Christmas Carol” opens in Japan on Saturday.
