The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade will include more than 8,000 participants this November, including stars such as Idina Menzel, Sting, Nick Jonas and Meghan Trainor.
This will be the 88th straight event, and The Today Show will host a three-hour broadcast that will also include Kiss, Renee Fleming, Mo'Ne Davis and more, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Menzel recently announced a Christmas album, and will be a CMA Country Christmas performer, while Jonas recently talked about channeling Elvis while balancing acting and singing.
"A lot of people feel like you have to focus on one at a time, but I want to be greedy and do both," Jonas told Time. "I hope I can. I look at people like Elvis, who did both, and it was amazing. There's a million examples of people who have made the transition from one to the other, but I'd love to be able to do both and make an impact in both."
Musically, the head Jo Bro is staying ambitious.
"I came in really wanting to make a record that was different from anything I'd done in the past, but that was true to my influences: Stevie Wonder, Prince, Bee Gees," he told Time. "And then, more recently, The Weeknd and Frank Ocean. That whole vibe of alternative R&B/pop. It just fell into a really natural place really early. To the point where we were six songs in, like, 'Oh, we have a record taking shape.' I came in really sure of what I wanted to do.
He also spent much of the interview discussing the idea fear.
He continued to talk about the idea of fear with Time:
"One of the biggest questions is, 'What is it you fear and why do you fear it and how does it affect you?'" he said. "For me, it was fear of the unknown, fear of my next steps, fear of making bold choices. In creating the music and feeling free in that way, I think the questions were answered and the fear was gone. I feel really good now!"
