===2010–present: Second reunion and ''Bridesmaids''=== On October 12, 2010, Wilson Phillips released a Christmas album, ''[[Christmas in Harmony]]''. The album yielded a single, "[[I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday]]," a cover of the popular seasonal tune that first was a hit in 1973 for English glam-rock band [[Wizzard]]. The group had a resurgence in popularity with a cameo appearance in the film ''[[Bridesmaids (2011 film)|Bridesmaids]]'' (2011), in which they performed "Hold On" in the finale. Sales increased from 1,000 to 6,000 downloads with the film's release.<ref>{{cite magazine|title=Wilson Phillips Gets New Boost from 'Bridesmaids' Movie|url=http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/471190/wilson-phillips-gets-new-boost-from-bridesmaids-movie|magazine=Billboard|date=22 May 2011|access-date=14 March 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=How 'Bridesmaids' Landed '90s Girl Group Wilson Phillips|url=http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/how-bridesmaids-landed-90s-girl-192848|website=The Hollywood Reporter|date=27 May 2011|access-date=14 March 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Wilson Phillips Talk 'Dedicated,' Their New Reality Show, 'Bridesmaids' + More|url=http://buzzworthy.mtv.com/2012/04/06/wilson-phillips-dedicated-reality-show-bridesmaids-interview/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120411084922/http://buzzworthy.mtv.com/2012/04/06/wilson-phillips-dedicated-reality-show-bridesmaids-interview/|url-status=dead|archive-date=April 11, 2012|website=MTV Buzzworthy|access-date=14 March 2015}}</ref> Bandmember Chynna was a contestant on season 13 of ABC's ''[[Dancing With the Stars]]'' and explained that "Hold On" was written by herself, Carnie and Wendy about Chynna's recovery from drug and alcohol addiction.
