Pickler's cover also made an appearance on the compilation "Now That's What I Call a Country Christmas" (2009) and the charity album, "A Very Special Christmas 7" (2009). Proceeds from the latter album's sales benefitted Special Olympics. In 2010, Pickler was invited to appear as a guest musical act on the inaugural "CMA Country Christmas" television special. For the appearance, she performed her cover of "Santa Baby" while dressed a red dress "and matching gloves". A contributor to the "Country Music Family" website lauded Pickler's performance, calling it enjoyable and fun to watch. They also enjoyed her vocals, writing that she "used the song to display her talents as a vocalist". David Drew from WUBE-FM referred to this performance of "Santa Baby" by Pickler as the song's official music video. On December 15, 2013, Pickler uploaded a promotional audio clip of the song to her Vevo YouTube channel.
