Celine Dion went full Grinch mode for Christmas and it's pure holiday magic. 

The award-winning singer shared a video on Christmas Day, where she dressed up as the iconic Dr. Seuss character in green makeup, a Santa suit and embodied the Grinch's voice and mannerisms. 

The video opens with Dion singing her hit song, "All By Myself," as the Grinch character by a fireplace.

In another clip, she has her dog -- dressed up as the Grinch's pup, Max -- on her lap and reenacts some of the lines in the hit 2000 film. 

"The nerve of those Whos inviting me down there on such short notice," she says. "Even if I wanted to go, my schedule wouldn't allow it!"

I can't cancel that again! 7:30 -- wrestle with my creative ideas, I'm booked!"
