With a gleam in his eye and a twinkle in his voice, Hewett delivered the song’s cheeky, confessional lyrics with charisma and charm. “Coming Out at Christmas” tells the story of a young man choosing the most festive (and possibly chaotic) time of year to come out to his family—a relatable and deeply personal narrative for many LGBTQ+ individuals, served with a generous helping of humor and heart. From awkward family dinners to rainbow revelations under the mistletoe, the song captures both the anxiety and the liberation of living one’s truth during the holidays.
