Nashville, Tenn. (Nov. 13, 2014) – Add morning talk show co-host to Kellie Pickler’s increasingly diverse resume. The country star, “Dancing with the Stars” champion and “American Idol” alum joins the cast of ABC’s “The View” on Friday, Nov. 14 at 11 a.m. ET/10 CT, for a special appearance that includes co-hosting duties and a performance.

The Black River Entertainment recording artist interviews film star Drew Barrymore, shows her “wild side” when exotic animals visit the set, and chats with co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Nicolle Wallace and Rosie Perez on a number of topics.

The 28-year-old North Carolina native also performs on the show, singing “Selma Drye” from her 2013 critically-acclaimed album The Woman I Am. The high-energy song is about her irrepressible great-grandmother. The appearance caps a busy month for Pickler, who appeared on "The Queen Latifah Show," performed at the 2014 USO Gala, saw the release of the VeggieTales animated film “Beauty and the Beet” in which she voices lead character Mirabelle, and performed the half-time show at a recent NFL Charlotte Panthers football game among several other appearances.
