Country Weekly has learned exclusively that Reba McEntire will debut a new duet with pop superstar Kelly Clarkson on next month's Academy of Country Music Awards.
"Because of You," a remake of Kelly's pop smash, will likely be the first single from Reba's upcoming album of all-star duets. The idea to record the tune together stemmed from the pair's February taping for an upcoming episode of CMT's Crossroads series, during which Reba fell in love with the song. Kelly also appeared at the recent CMT Giants special honoring Reba, and even made a guest appearance on the country superstar's since-canceled CW-TV series, Reba. In addition to the planned performance, Reba will serve as host for the ACM Awards, set to be broadcast live on CBS from the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas, Tuesday, May 15, at 8 p.m. ET
