Just days after releasing her fifth studio album, Storyteller, Carrie Underwood has been named the headliner of one of the world's largest celebrations - the New Year's Eve countdown from Times Square in New York City.
According to USA Today, Carrie Underwood has a big 2016 planned. But she's going to finish 2015 with a bang, first.
The pop singer will perform at this year's New Year's Rockin' Eve host Ryan Seacrest revealed on Twitter.
He tweeted, "hey @carrieunderwood I hope u have long johns and good ear muffs.. I'll see u in times square for @OfficialNYRE 2016!," he continued, if there’s one girl who will make sure our clock don’t stop on new year's eve, it’s @carrieunderwood ;)."
USA Today's Elysa Gardner said of the highly anticipated pop album, Storyteller: "Underwood is at her most convincing, and winning, on the songs that seem to stem from personal contentment. Singing What I Never Knew I Always Wanted, an obvious ode to her husband and the child they welcomed earlier this year, Underwood finds truth in corn; her joy sparkles because it's never forced or overstated. Tenderness remains Underwood’s strongest suit, the one in which she can show off the clarity of her voice, and her sheer likability, without apology.”
The Smoke Break singer will be the star performer in the live telecast of Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Even With Ryan Seacrest 2016, taking the stage just before the ball drops to announce the new year. In Times Square alone, the pop star’s audience is expected to top one million people, while millions more could tune in worldwide.
Carrie Underwood said in a press statement, “There’s nowhere else I’d rather be than New York’s Time Square, one of the most magical places in the world, to ring in the New Year.”
The telecast begins at 8pm ET on December 31, live on ABC, and will be hosted for the 10th year by Ryan Seacrest. He’ll be joined in New York by Jenny McCarthy, while Fergie will host the pretaped West Coast party from Hollywood.
I’m really exciting for Carrie Underwood headlining ABC’s ‘New Year’s Rockin’ Eve’ special in New York’s Time Square. Carrie Underwood, to me, in an underrated pop singer. Like Taylor Swift, her pop music don’t sound pop and her pop songs sound like they’ve could’ve been from another genre like country. This makes Carrie Underwood's music different compared to other pop music like Rihanna. I hope Carrie Underwood will be making deep emotional pop music that will be similar to her non-pop works as a side project for the sixth album. So probably 2016 would be a good time for the Little Toy Guns singer to work on her first pop music side project as her sixth studio album.
What do you think? Are you exciting to see Carrie Underwood performing live at ABC’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve on New York’s Time Square? Sound of below!
