Carrie Underwood will begin her very high-profile year with a performance at Monday's (Jan. 20) presidential inauguration.

Victor Willis, the lead singer of the Village People, said that "music is to be performed without regard to politics."

Country music superstar Carrie Underwood will perform "America the Beautiful" at U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration on Jan. 20, according to a copy of the program shared by a spokesperson of the presidential inaugural committee.

Hollywood and celebrity A-listers did everything in their power to stop Donald Trump from returning to the White House last year, bringing to the campaign trail megastars including Taylor Swift, George Clooney,

Before he was sworn into office in 2017, Trump held a concert at the Lincoln Memorial that included performances from Toby Keith, Lee Greenwood and 3 Doors Down. "I don't apologize for performing for our country or military," Keith said at the time.

Village People, the American disco group whose hits like "Y.M.C.A" have been staples at Trump rallies, defended their decision to perform during Trump's inauguration.

With Trump's swearing-in just days away, speculation remains over who will grace the stage on the incoming president's behalf.

The Village People—the band behind one of Trump’s favorite hits, “Y.M.C.A.”—will perform at a pre-inauguration event.

Gavin DeGraw is joining the list of performers ringing in Trump's inauguration as he prepares to perform at the Starlight Ball. At this time, the "Not Over You" singer is slated as the only performer at the ball, which is the last of the evening.

The inauguration promises to be memorable, with organisers emphasising unity and music to celebrate Trump's leadership.
