What Will T-Pain Sing at The Parade?
The talented singer, songwriter and producer will ride the Jennie-O Big Turkey Spectacular float and perform a mash-up of his hits, well at least the family appropriate ones, I doubt we will hear "I'm N Luv (Wit A Stripper)". Maybe we'll get "I'm N Luv (Wit A Turkey)"
That's One Big Turkey
This will be T-Pain's first appearance at the parade, but the 5th appearance of the 2-story tall Jennie-O Big Turkey Spectacular float, which features gold, green and white colors with a 25-foot wide tail of feathers.
A Float With Some Hidden Surprises
The float glitters with over 200 pounds of sparkles, and the tail has added fun of shooting out confetti during the parade. The Turkey on the float also has an animated hat that reveals some baby turkeys underneath.
Jennie-O is owned and operated by Minnesota-based Hormel, which also owns other popular brands like SPAM, Planters, Skippy and more than 30 others.
The parade appearance will be an opportunity for Jennie-O to promote its popular 1-800-TURKEYS hotline, a resource for advice on how to prep and cook a turkey, plus recipes for leftovers.
The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade will air on Thanksgiving morning, November 28th, on NBC, and it will also be streaming live on Peacock.
