Carrie Underwood won’t be the only Grammy-winning artist celebrating Donald Trump’s inauguration on Monday.
Hip-hop artist Nelly is set to perform at one of the president-elect’s three inaugural balls after he’s sworn in earlier that day, inside sources told CBS News.
According to reporter Taurean Small, the “Hot in Herre” rapper will rock the mic at Trump’s Liberty Ball, where country star Jason Aldean and disco band The Village People are also scheduled to take the stage. Trump is set to give remarks at the event geared toward his loyal supporters.
Nelly will be joining a list of musicians who are officially slated to perform during four days of festivities surrounding the inauguration. Along with Underwood, who will sing “America the Beautiful” at Trump’s swearing-in ceremony, others performers at various events will include Kid Rock, Rascal Flatts, Gavin DeGraw, Lee Greenwood and Billy Ray Cyrus.
Following his appearance in the nation’s capital, Nelly, who welcomed his first son and tied the knot with singer Ashanti last year, will kick off his international Where the Party At Tour with shows in New Zealand and Australia in March, before heading to Canada and various countries across Europe.
After a series of festival appearances, the U.S. leg of his tour begins in late July as he’s joined by specials guests including Ja Rule, Eve and Jermaine Dupri.
