Dr. Christmas has just revealed the holiday interior design he created for Beyoncé and Jay-Z.

Dr. Christmas, whose actual nаme is Bob Pranga, described to PEOPLE his four decades of experience assisting luminaries with the decking of banquet halls. The 61-year-old designer described decorating the “Crаzy in Love” collaborators’ home with their intended “Christmas in Africa” motif as “fascinating.”

Three days before Christmas, Pranga informed PEOPLE, “I received a phone call from her assistant informing me that they had decided to spend Christmas in Malibu.” 

“It was a fascinating thing to me because I went out there and it was like a movie set,” said Pranga. “All these people were hired to make this house perfect before they got there for Christmas Eve.”

He shared how he and his team were on a tight time constraint with just the simple direction of making their home a “Christmas in Africa” theme with “beautiful colors and prints.” He revealed that the team had “less than 24 hours to prepare her home.” 

“Beyoncé is just a lovely lady. She’s very chill,” explained Pranga. “People are always looking for those wonderful or horrible stories of celebrities.” 

“But I get to see these people as people at home,” he simply concluded.

Ahead of this year’s Christmas, the “Ԁrunk in Love” singer recently stepped out for a Thursday event in honor of the release of Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé in Brazil.

During the fan event screening titled “Club Renaissance,” she addressed fans from the stage of a convention center in Salvador, Bahia — and even brought out one of her tour traditions.

The Grammy winner treated fans by performing the mute challenge. But in the fans’ clip, when she sang the “look around, everybody on mute” lyric from her track “Energy,” the crowd was simply too excited and didn’t go silent.

The 4 artist celebrated the film — which documents her acclaimed, record-shattering 2023 world tour and its behind-the-scenes moments — with two other premiere events in Los Angeles and London.
