Hollywood is go big or go home when it comes to decor ... and Christmas is their time to shine like the star on top of the tree!

Some of your favorite stars -- like Kim Kardashian, Nia Vardalos, and James Charles -- are putting the extra in extravagance with their best holiday displays. A few are soaring to new heights with branches touching the sky while others are decking them out with the brightest lights.

The good news is Christmas isn't about who has the most decorations ... you can still impress Santa with all the holiday cheer you share with loved ones!

New York native Bobcat Goldthwait (real name Robert Francis Goldthwait) gained fame while in his mid-twenties after he parlayed his successful stand-up career into big-screen acting gigs while keeping his signature squawky voice on iconic '80s movies.

BG's recognizable roles include the zany Zed on "Police Academy 2: Their First Assignment," Fred Chaney on the talking horse hit "Hot To Trot," Egg Stork on the seasonal romantic comedy "One Crazy Summer" ... and of course Eliot Loudermilk on the 1988 Christmas classic "Scrooged."

Before this Christmas kid was awkwardly entering into the television world, she was just another festive girl hanging her ornaments onto the tree in Los Angeles, California.

This decorating darling isn't unfamiliar with the ins and outs of acting on television ... that's because her famous father has been doing it for decades! He must have taught her tons of his tricks because this actress is a natural on a popular MTV comedy series that ran for 5 seasons.

Now, this blonde beauty is waiting for the release of her newest project in which she stars alongside Kristin Davis.

Michigan local Jessica Cauffiel was in her mid-20s when her acting career was launched into the limelight with some big acting roles including playing the Hamptons hottie and best friend Tori Wilson -- whose cool clique gets raided by the undercover cops in drag -- in the 2004 work of art "White Chicks."

Cauffiel shared the big screen with the on-screen and off-screen comedy brothers Marlon Wayans as Agent Marcus Copeland... and as Tiffany Wilson and Shawn Wayans as Agent Kevin Copeland ... and Brittany Wilson.

Other notable roles from Jessica's Y2K credits are Margot in 'Legally Blonde' and Milan on "The Drew Carey Show."

Wanna live like NFL superstar Khalil Mack?? Now you can -- if you've got a small fortune layin' around ...

TMZ Sports has learned the Chicago Bears pass rusher -- who began his career with the Oakland Raiders -- is selling his insane hillside mansion in NorCal for $2.88 MILLION.

The 3-time All-Pro bought the place in San Ramon, Calif. shortly after the Raiders drafted him ... but with no need to be in the Bay Area anymore, he's ready to get rid of the pad.

The place -- which is being listed by Maria Afzal from Keller Williams Luxury Palo Alto after being referred to by Luther Robinson II from Robinson Luxury Group -- is insane, featuring 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.

It's 3,700 square feet and has a spa bathroom, chef's kitchen and a huge patio with views that overlook hills and lights from the city.

Of course, if the home sells, it'll be the second time Mack has unloaded property this year -- 'cause he just sold his home in Illinois for $3.9 million.

Unclear if it all means Mack is gearing up to play football for a new team in a new city next year, or if the dude just wants some extra cash in his pocket.

Before this sweetie with a stuffy was acting and singing on television, she was just another holiday-ready cutie squeezing her stuffed animal tight in Hollywood, Florida.

This cuddly kid got her start as a teenager on some of your childhood favorite television series ... she had made appearances on shows like "The Suite Life of Zack & Cody" and "iCarly" but her breakout role was for a Nickelodeon comedy starring Jamie Lynn Spears.

After, she scored the lead in a musical sitcom following a group of talented friends showing off their skills at a performing arts academy.

Canadian artist Snow (real name Darrin Kenneth O'Brien) reggae rapped his way to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart for more than a month with his 1992 mind-boggling hit single "Informer" ... which paved the way for his debut album "12 Inches Of Snow" which was released in the winter of 1993 on East West Records.

The OG mumble rapper and musician went on to release five more albums over the following decade with epic titles like "Murder Love," "Justuss," "Cooler Conditions" and "Mind On The Moon" ... and even has a 2019 "Informer" remix alongside Daddy Yankee with over a billion plays on Spotify.

Hidden underneath this mashed-up man is a celebrity personality who is known for his insane antics and his scary stunts.

This stretched-out Santa Claus got his start with an ensemble cast of friends pulling off some of the most ridiculous pranks and tricks ... that often resulted in tons of injuries. Their popularity rose to the point where after three seasons on television, they were able to create numerous spin-offs and films guaranteed to bring you cheer.

Before this animal lover was a staple character on some of the most beloved television shows, she was just another cool cat feline herself for the camera in New York City, New York.

This cuddled-up cute kid got her leading role in an ensemble cast at the young age of 10 years old ... and she remained an important character -- and key member to the dysfunctional family -- in the dramatic comedy series for 10 years.

Now, she's moved on to acting as part of another famous family rebooted from a classic 1988 sitcom.

New York City native Dash Mihok has had a long career on a big list of television shows ... but he was only 22 years old when he scored the breakout role of 9mm toting cousin Benvolio Montague -- who stays true to family loyalties and protects his cousin Romeo -- in Baz Luhrmann's 1996 masterpiece of William Shakespeare's classic "Romeo + Juliet."

the timeless tragedy turned modern love story is jam-packed with celebs including John Leguizamo as the Prince of Cats and Juliet's killer cousin, Tybalt Capulet, Claire Danes as the balcony babe, Juliet Capulet ... and of course Leonardo DiCaprio as the cross-town heartthrob, Romeo Montague.

Mihok can be more recently spotted playing Ray's younger brother Bunchy on "Ray Donovan."

Before this superhero sweetie was one of the biggest heartthrobs on television, he was just another little Spiderman fan getting all dressed up to save the day in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

This cute kid's spidey senses were tingling to get on the big screen, and when he was cast alongside the Olsen twins, that is exactly what he did. He always had fairly small roles in feature films, but it wasn't until he scored a reoccurring role on "One Tree Hill" that he finally rose to stardom.

Since then, he's appeared on numerous other popular television series.

New Jersey native Ali Larter has had a long list of notable roles in the entertainment business ... but she was only 22 years old when she landed her breakout role as the quarterback's girlfriend and cheer captain Darcy Sears -- who surprises the up-and-coming QB (and viewers) by donning a whipped cream bikini -- in the 1999 teen movie "Varsity Blues."

'VB' was packed with up-and-coming actors including Paul Walker as the star QB and Darcy's boyfriend, Lance Harbor ... and of course James Van Der Beek as the guy who don't want your life, Jonathan "Mox" Moxon.

Before this mini microphone man was making audiences jam out to his memorable music, he was just another cute kid ready for the holidays in Manhattan, New York.

This tiny tot created a career for himself that caused him to fly away with success. He's sold millions of album copies, set a record for his Grammy Awards -- he's won Best Male Rock Vocal Performance 4 consecutive years in a row -- and made a huge impact on the rock and roll world.

He's also tried his hand in acting, being featured alongside Jennifer Lawrence in a huge movie franchise.

Hidden within this toothy photo is a timeless singer who knows how to spread glitter and holiday cheer with her powerhouse voice.

This big-grinning gal has made audiences obsessed with her signature songs ... especially one tune that you'll be listening to on repeat this winter to get you in the holiday mood. But, being the Queen of Christmas isn't the only thing she has to offer, this talented voice has won numerous awards for hit after hit after hit.
