Michael Stewart/Getty ImagesFrozen and Broadway actress Idina Menzel and Pretty Little Liars star and country singer Lucy Hale were among the celebrity performers at the 2014 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
Menzel did not perform the Disney movie's wildly popular song "Let It Go," opting instead of sing a cover of Mariah Carey's 1994 hit "All I Want for Christmas Is You," which is featured on the former singer's new album Holiday Wishes.
"Freezing my tush off on this float," Menzel joked on Twitter.
A legend sings a modern classic! We ?? @idinamenzel's version of "All I Want for Christmas is You!" ????#MacysParade pic.twitter.com/DmCDGxnRG2
? Macy's (@Macys) November 27, 2014Hale sang her single "Lie a Little Better," which is featured on her debut album, Road Between.
"That was amazing ! And so cold. Thank you @macys!" Hale tweeted.
I have so much to be thankful for this year that I don't even know where to begin. But I'm extremely grateful for y'all! Happy thanksgiving!
? Lucy Hale (@lucyhale) November 27, 2014They were joined by the likes of Nick Jonas, who performed his new song "Jealous," from his new second, self-titled studio album. (And due partially to the honor of the family holiday and because temperatures were near-freezing, the pop star and heartthrob kept his shirt on.)
He also took a fantastic selfie with NBC weather anchor Al Roker.
