Parton replaces Pete Davidson, who co-hosted the special last year. The event is executive produced by Lorne Michaels and will feature a star-studded lineup of performances and special guests, which have yet to be announced.
Parton is also Cyrus’ godmother and one of her biggest musical influences. Cyrus has performed Parton’s song “Jolene” on a number of occasions, and they’ve even performed the song together several times in the past. You can watch a video of the two performing the song below.
Last year’s special in Miami featured artists including Brandi Carlile, Billie Joe Armstrong, Jack Harlow and Saweetie. The inaugural show delivered NBC’s best New Year’s Eve viewership in both the 18-49 demographic and the 18-34 demographic since 2014.
