THE A list has started to head Down Under for the festive season.
Yesterday Sydney International Arrivals Hall was abuzz as celebrities touched down in a sweltering Harbour City.
Among the faces spotted by Confidential was 5 Seconds of Summer star Luke Hemmings. The handsome 21-year-old looked like a rocker as he strutted through the airport with screaming fans stopping the muso for selfies.
Appearing happy to be home, the star looked very fresh-faced after the 13-hour flight from Los Angeles.
US actor Cuba Gooding Jr had locals shocked when he stepped off a flight yesterday morning.
The star told Confidential he was here for both business and pleasure.
“It’s good to be here. I am going to do another Optus commercial and see some sights,” he said.
“The last time I was here I was doing a movie called Lightning Jack, that was 1994 that was a few years ago.”
It has been over 20 years since Gooding Jr was in Australia so he said he was looking forward to checking out the sights.
“I just want to be at home with the family (for Christmas) before I have to travel abroad and to more films.”
He will be back in the US for the festive season.
Also expected to arrive home in the coming days is Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, Naomi Wattsand Victoria’s Secret model Victoria Lee.
“My sister, and I, we have a big summer Christmas, which I know sounds bizarre to Americans,” Kidman told Us Weekly.
“We go back for the heat. We want to be on the beach for Christmas, no snow. We love the ocean and shrimp.”
