Christina Aguilera & Jason Derulo Join Stars for CBS ‘Home for the Holidays Special’

The heartwarming Home for The Holidays Special is back again for its 17th year bringing smiles to children across America. This year, CBS decided to do things a little differently by hosting a traveling concert series to bring musical legends together with foster care families. Christina Aguilera was announced as the headlining artist, and joining her will be Jason Derulo, Ed Sheeran and Rascall Flatts. Catch the inspiring musical special December 18 at 9pm.

'Tis the season for celebrating love and families! This year, the CBS Home for the Holidays Special will honor 5 new foster kids and their families across Pennsylvania, Washington and California. Each of these five families has a dynamic story to tell and deserve to be celebrated with a warm musical welcome.

The all-star lineup of artists will bring bright smiles to the new families with uplifting performances. Christina Aguilera has been confirmed as this year's headliner performing her uplifting song, "Beautiful" in Los Angeles.

Jason Derulo will also rock the stage, performing "Want to Want Me" and "In My Head" in Hollywood, FL. Rascal Flatts will perform "My Wish" and "I Like the Sound of That" in Irvine, CA.

Each of the traveling field segments will be produced by award winning documentarians Jeff and Mike Zimbalst. To host this monumental event, CBS tapped Grammy winning rapper and actor LL Cool J to do the honors. As previously reported by MStars, LL Cool J was also confirmed at the 2016 Grammys host. This dimpled, Lip Sync Battle star is keeping quite busy with hosting gigs.
