Martina McBride Performs/Lead Guest On Regis And Kelly

Nashville, TN. (Top40 Charts/RCA/ Sony/ BMG) - Martina McBride joined Regis and Kelly in New Orleans on May 22nd and helped them celebrate the progress of the city since Hurricane Katrina. McBride performed her current single "How I Feel" off her recently released ninth studio album, Waking Up Laughing. The special broadcast airs tomorrow on ABC.

McBride appeared on the program just days after performing to a sold-out crowd at New York City 's famed Radio City Music Hall . The starlet sold-out the hallowed Hall for the second time in two years. She achieved this feat last year during her "Timeless" tour.

Newsday remarked, "From one tune to another, she morphed from a honky-tonk queen, to a tough rocker and to a pure-pop diva...McBride's voice is honey-sweet and stunningly pure, and when she leaps into her upper register and milks a note for every possible ounce of emotion - it's guaranteed to get a crowd on its feet."

New Yorkers will get another chance to catch Martina in the "Big Apple" as she returns for her third appearance on NBC's Today Show in less than five months! Look for her on the Today Show Summer Concert Series on August 24th and CBS's Early Show on August 25th. McBride will also perform on Saturday, June 9th at the CMA Music Festival at LP Field in Nashville , which is set to air on ABC in July.

Martina will again appear on ABC for the second time in July as the network will air back-to-back one-hour Primetime Live specials using Martina as the focal point of the "six degrees" concept.
