Kelsea Ballerini blows kisses by her Christmas tree

Kelsea Ballerini is sizzling in sexy green underwear by her Christmas tree – a little early, but nonetheless welcome as the country singer ushers in the holiday season. Posting to Instagram ahead of the weekend, the “Homecoming Queen” hit-maker honored the best time of year and her partnership with clothing retailer Aerie, sharing a series of snaps by her tree and even including some plaid pajama action.

Kelsea made it a festive affair as she blew fans kisses, with the photos also flashing her famous legs and including a super-cozy shot as she chilled out in a beanie with her dog.

Kelsea Ballerini Sizzles By Xmas Tree

Scroll for the photos. Kelsea made headlines earlier this year for being snapped up by Aerie and for announcing her campaign in unedited photos. All cozy in cream loungewear and a wintry hat in her opening shot, the country star rocked matching PJ pants and showed off a green bralette.

Holding up a gold bauble, the blonde pouted while smiling at the same time, with further images showing the Tennessee native in a no-pants look and by a gift box with a Santa Claus face on it. Here, Kelsea was rocking festive reds, again backed by her decorated tree.

Announcing her post as a paid partnership with Aerie, the singer took to her caption, writing: “Such a wonderful whirlwind life has been lately － happy to be home for the holidays in my @aerie cozies!! ❄️ #AerieREAL #AeriePartner.” More after the photos, where you can swipe.

What’s She Getting Paid?

Kelsea abided by Instagram’s required #ad. Pay on the platform correlates with following- the higher the fanbase, the bigger the paycheck. Experts at Vox have weighed in on the $$$, stating:

“Influencers with up to 1 million followers can get $10,000 [per post], depending on the platform, and 1 million followers and up, you’re getting into territory where they can charge $100,000. Some can even get $250,000 for a post!”

August marked Kelsea announcing her Aerie gig. Stunning in striped undies, the singer told fans:

“Honestly, if ya would’ve told me a few years ago I’d be in a campaign in my undies with zero retouching…I woulda 🏃🏼‍♀️💨…but I’m proud of the personal growth I’ve had recalibrating my relationship with my body and what feels healthy, strong, and sustainable for myself and lifestyle. vulnerable? yes, but happy.”
