Watch the 42nd Annual Kennedy Center Honors Celebrating Honorees' Profound Artistic Impact
Sunday, December 15 at 8 p.m. on CBS.
“The Kennedy Center Honors celebrates icons who, through their artistry, have left an indelible stamp on our collective cultural consciousness,” stated Kennedy Center Chairman David M. Rubenstein. “Earth, Wind & Fire’s hooks and grooves are the foundation of a seminal style that continues to shape our musical landscape; Sally Field has brought us unforgettable characters, both joyous and poignant, for more than five decades; Linda Ronstadt is the defining voice of a generation, spanning genres, languages, and continents; Sesame Street continues to revolutionize how children and adults learn about our world; and Michael Tilson Thomas goes far beyond keeping score: he has shaped American music and musical institutions for the 21st century.”
“In this class of honorees, we are witnessing a uniquely American story: one that is representative of so many cultural touchstones and musical moments that make our nation great,” said Kennedy Center President Deborah F. Rutter. “When I look at this class, I see the hopes, aspirations, and achievements not just of these honorees, but of the many generations they have influenced and continue to influence. We’re not just looking back; these honorees are urging us to look forward as well.”
The 42nd annual Kennedy Center Honors marks the first time a television program will receive the award. The co-founders of Sesame Street, Joan Ganz Cooney and Dr. Lloyd Morrisett, will accept the Kennedy Center Honors on behalf of the show, Muppets creator Jim Henson, seminal Muppets artists Caroll Spinney and Frank Oz, and the thousands of creatives who have built the program’s 50-year legacy.
On Sunday, December 8, in a star-studded celebration on the Kennedy Center Opera House stage, produced by Ricky Kirshner and Glenn Weiss of White Cherry Entertainment, the 2019 Honorees were saluted by today’s leading performers from New York, Hollywood, and the arts capitals of the world. Seated in the Box Tier of the iconic Kennedy Center Opera House, the Honorees accepted the recognition and gratitude of their peers through performances and tributes.
The Kennedy Center Honors medallions were presented on Saturday, December 7, the night before the Gala, at a State Department dinner. The Founding Chair of the State Department dinner is Elizabeth Stevens.
The Honors recipients recognized for their contributions to American culture through the performing arts-whether in music, dance, theater, opera, motion pictures, or television-are confirmed by the Executive Committee of the Center’s Board of Trustees. The primary criterion in the selection process is excellence. The Honors are not designated by art form or category of artistic achievement; the selection process, over the years, has produced balance among the various arts and artistic disciplines.
The Honoree selection process includes solicitation of recommendations from the Kennedy Center Board of Trustees, the artistic community, and the general public. This year’s selected Honorees were chosen based on the recommendation of the Center’s Special Honors Advisory Committee, which is chaired by David Bohnett and includes David M. Rubenstein, Deborah F. Rutter, Michael Lombardo, Cappy McGarr, and Shonda Rhimes, along with past Honors recipients and distinguished artists Julie Andrews, Martina Arroyo, Gloria Estefan, Herbie Hancock, Twyla Tharp, and John Williams. These individuals play a critical role in the evaluation and selection process, and the Kennedy Center is indebted to them for their involvement.

There won't come another voice like Linda's. Simply the purest voice to ever grace Rock music.
Linda is the gold standard! There’s no one else like her.
Linda Ronstadt is hands down my favorite singer of all time. And also one of my favorite people of all time.
It was very moving to watch Linda's reaction to Emmy Lou Harris's word and then to see Aaron Nevile walk on stage to sing the duet with Trisha. I think the fact that Trisha Yearwood could sing the songs as close to Linda as a human could possibly sing speaks volumes for her ability as a singer. Bravo!
"touched by God"...all the music Ms. Linda touched, especially rock, could not, would not be the same without her influence....love her so much...
Linda Ronstadt IS a hero and a champion and the very best that ever was
Agreed, she could do it all. The best voice of her generation and it's not even close.
Not one of the best, THE best. Period, end of story. You are correct. From Sheryl Crow to Dolly Parton to Pat Benatar, etc., they all agree the best voice in pop music history.
Trisha has said for decades that her idol is Linda Ronstadt and her dream would be to sing a duet with her . . . unfortunately . . well . .
Wow the girl that interviewed them didn’t know how important Linda Ronstadt was? That is just incredible...🤦🏻♀️
Gloria henderson it’s seems like all these younger interviewers were the wrong choice to use when it comes to talking about a living legend. We need smarter more mature people for this job.
she's a politico talking head on sunday mornings she know noting
Garth and Trisha, long may you sing. You words about Linda warm my heart.
Do you think she is truly an American Artist?......dumbest question of the night
She is a 100% American who loves her Mexican roots. God bless her.
@@gonetoutah i know thats why i think that question was uncalled for or the way it was phrased sounded wrong and dumb
Whoever that person doing the interviews was I believe her application required her to have an IQ lower than 75.
Garth you steal my heart EVERYTIME you give an interview! Trisha you did AMAZING as usual! I genuinely love you both so much & can't help but think we would have a blast over a bonfire & drinks!
Listen to Linda then anyone today. Linda wins it all.
The Telecast is this coming Sunday Night at 8 Eastern on CBS.
I can remember when Garth broke big and a writer, Kinky Friedman, was asked about him, and he laughed and said, "He's the Anti-Hank"(laughs). Garth was just one of a batch of new Country singers with a strong Traditional Country music flavor - like Randy Travis and Alan Jackson, that appeared in the late 1980s. I've heard of complaints about New Country or "Bro" Country, but with these guys, Traditional Country has a great future. Fortune passes everywhere.
Sorry, this interviewer makes me mentally numb with the questions she asks. "Do you think Linda is an American Artist?" --- "Well, no, not really. They begged me to come honor her because there was no one else who would." Oops, snappy answer to a stupid question.
I just read that Garth Brooks will be one of the next Kennedy Center Honorees, this year 2021. But not until Dec. I guess, thats when they usually have them. I hope thats true. There are alot of untruths posted on my tablet. Especially from Beautiful Life, whatever that is, and other sources as well. As for Linda Ronstadt, love her, huge fan always. Loved her version of "Poor, Poor, Pitiful me". Very much deserves the tribute. About time.
Power couple! It seems like all these younger interviewers are the wrong choice to use when it comes to talking about a living legend. We need smarter more mature people for this job.
Love Vizsla I thought she did fine.
Wow, that was Good
Linda's Prisoner in Disguise album influenced her style.
How do you know
@@evanhughes1510 it was in an article I read.
@@randyventresca4152 oh ok. Yea I like a lot of songs on that record
Awesome couple.
What is with the Rainbow? Can we not do anything in this country without having to drag sexual orientation into it?
Umm, you're the one who brought sexual orientation into the conversation. Must suck to be so sensitive that a multi-colored logo set's you off.
@@Michael-mp9xr exactly. Must be a shit pot stirrer.
From the Kennedy Centre website...the logo symbolizes "a spectrum of many skills within the performing arts."
Janice Morris Jesus Janice why don’t you investigate, google what it means. You’re the only one dragging sexual orientation into it. I mean use your critical mine for god sake’s. Oh and by the way Linda Ronstadt worked tirelessly on behalf of Mexican immigrants since she herself was Mexican oh yeah and she did support LGBTQ rights thank you Ms Ronstadt! ❤️
