I don’t know what sort of news you expected to wake up to this morning, but I can guess this wasn’t it.
William Shatner, best known for playing Captain Kirk in Star Trek, is releasing a Christmas album. Yes, you read that right! It’s going to be called Shatner Claus: The Christmas Album and I think we can all agree that that’s pretty amazing.
He’ll be joined by various other famous names collaborating on an array of Christmas covers. Those names include Henry Rollins, Brad Paisley, Iggy Pop, Mel Collins, and Judy Collins.
