Carrie Underwood & John Legend Conduct for Worldwide Citizen Prize

On Saturday night (Dec. 19), the International Citizen corporation televised its yearly awards ceremony on NBC, honoring global leaders and activists across government, business enterprise, philanthropy, the arts and enjoyment, and far more. The evening was hosted by John Legend, but the singer and Voice coach didn’t just conduct MC responsibilities.

In 1 of the night’s plain optimum times, Legend paired up with Carrie Underwood for a effective still ethereal edition of their vacation duet “Hallelujah,” which can be viewed over.

The tune, which consists of lyrics these as “Enable the young children know you will find a brighter day,” served fantastically for the concept of the firm, which aims to bring hope, specifically following a unparalleled year of hardships. Underwood and Legend, the two dressed in black towards a hanging set of golden vacation trees, traded vocals passionately as sparking snowfall-like gold lights flickered all around them.

The evening also experienced a number of other uplifting performances, such as a glittery, dance-major jam of “Let Me Reintroduce Myself” from Mrs. Blake Shelton-To-Be and current reigning Voice champion mentor, Gwen Stefani.

“Hallelujah,” which is offered on Underwood’s new Christmas album My Present, also served as the concept for the Empire Condition Building’s once-a-year light exhibit, which was unveiled in full on Saturday.

“I appreciate this tune since I come to feel like it encompasses so considerably about Xmas,” Underwood noted in a message next the preview clip (over). “You have this like element of it, it just feels like Christmas, it just can make you smile, and to say ‘Hallelujah’ is just beautiful.”
