The last few year’s, the FOX network has aired Pitbull’s New Year’s Revolution as their live New Year’s Eve special, but Pitbull’s show has been canceled. He has now joined Univision’s New Year’s Eve telecast. In place of Pitbull’s New Year’s Eve countdown show, FOX has come out with Fox’s New Year’s Eve With Steve Harvey: Live From Times Square, which will begin airing live at 8:06 p.m. ET. According to Deadline, the show will run from 8 – 10 p.m. and 11 – 12:30 p.m. ET/PT, with tape delay to other time zones. With the help of celebrity guests and musical performances, Steve Harvey will deliver a countdown of entertainment to the new year. The official FOX synopsis for the special reads, “In his first-ever New Year Eve’s special with FOX, Harvey will bring his signature humor and hosting talents to this highly anticipated celebration taking place in the heart of New York City’s Times Square, featuring views of the Times Square Ball as it drops to ring in 2018. Harvey will be joined by surprise celebrity guests and some of the year’s top music artists to wrap up 2017 and kick off the New Year with a show unlike any other.”
Performers set to take the stage on New Year’s Eve via FOX tonight include Maroon 5, Niall Horan, Celine Dion, Backstreet Boys, Neil Diamond, Flo Rida and several others. And, according to Broadway World, tonight, Neil Diamond will lead the World’s Largest Sing-A-Long.
