Camila Cabello has offered the perfect response to people who criticized how she pronounces 'Christmas'.

And since the big day is just one month away, people have been getting into the spirit by rewatching the show.
Only this time round they've noticed something rather unusual – the way Camila pronounces the word 'Christmas'. Check it out:

Since going viral on TikTok, hundreds of fans have shared their thoughts on the rendition, with many poking fun at the 25-year-old singer.
Sharing a clip which highlights the pronunciation, one wrote: "Yes Camila, I too will be home for quismois."
Another shows a woman jumping up and down alongside text that reads: "Pov the quiz mice when they find out Camila Cabello will be home for them."
A third stitched together several of Camila's performances of the song, demonstrating how she says the word the same in each one.
In response, one commenter wrote: "Okay I’ve seen this TikTok several times now and she’s wearing something different in each one."
The conversation has since spilled over to Twitter too, with one writing: "How does Camila Cabello f*** up the word “Christmas”!? Quismoiz."
Another said: "Who tf let Camila Cabello sing 'Christmas' like that."
Thankfully, Camila can see the funny side, having since shared her own TikTok video in which she pokes fun at herself.
In the clip, which has racked up more than 6.9 million views, she is shown pretending to teach herself how to sing 'Christmas'.
Posing as a voice coach, she starts off by saying they're 'going to practice some phrases'.
After singing, "I'll be home for Christmas," she then urges another version of herself to have a try.
But instead, the line, "I'll be home for quismois comes out."
After a couple more failed attempts, Camila the voice coach eventually gives up and tells her: "It's going to be great."
It's safe to say the video has gone down a treat, with fans flocking to the comments section to praise the singer for being able to poke fun at herself.
"We love a celebrity that can take a joke," wrote one, while another said, "Love when celebrities respond/add to a meme of themselves."
A third added: "That's a queen move, merry quismois y'all."
Merry Quismois, indeed.
