The Kardashians arent the only celebs who love an over-staged Christmas card

Celebrities love nothing more than gathering their families together and taking Christmas card pictures at this time of year.

Sometimes they turn out reasonably fine for a holiday card but, more often than not, theyre just awkward.

Cheesy, plastered on smiles, cringe-worthy pyjamas and an obviously fake Christmas-themed set, are typically what make some celebrity Christmas cards brilliantly bad.

But so embarrassingly good at the same time.

Its a wonder how some of these Christmas cards turn out the way they do considering most celebs are used to being in front of the camera – whether paparazzi or for a high-end Vogue shoot.

Even the Kardashians, whose careers are pretty much one big picture book, have gotten it wrong over the years.

So in the name of good fun and the spirit of Christmas, here are some of the best Christmas cards that celebrities would rather forget.

Is JT attached to the tree via tinsel? Why is he just holding a present? That silver bomber jacket.

So many questions.

Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson

Where were Nick and Jess sleighing to exactly?

Ah, the Newlyweds. Somehow, Nick doesnt make the most convincing Santa and that is clearly a studio set. But we still love them for it anyway.

Kevin Hart

Surely the Harts would need warmer clothes for a ski lodge?

Guess life is always a movie in Kevins world.

Joe Jonas

Joe is a lot cooler these days

Sophie Turner – girl, we trust youll take charge of the Christmas card next year.

That throwback photo of The Rock before he became “The Rock” will never get old. Who doesnt love a good turtleneck at Christmas? FYI, its a Photoshopped Christmas card but has become pretty iconic.

Rebecca Romijn and Jerry ODonnell

To be fair, this is a cute family photo but the lime green pyjamas arent exactly easy on the eye.

The Jonas family

Not much festive with the Jonas familys card

No thank you, next.

Mena Suvari

Good sense of humour or they just really love their cat?

There are no words – other than, this is probably where Joe Jonas got his kitten inspiration from.

The matching denim, the biker leather, the shade-wearing Santa – the Kardashians, serving (some cringe) looks since 1994.
