American Song Contest: Snoop Dog and Kelly Clarkson will host the show!

Two of the biggest names in the American music industry will present the long-awaited American Song Contest. According to NBC and the official site of Eurovision, Snoop Dog and Kelly Clarkson will be the presenters of the American Song Contest.

The American Song Contest 2022 will premiere on Monday, March 22 and will last 8 weeks, until the Grand Final on May 9. The American Song Contest will feature live and original music performances – from all 50 states, five U.S. territories and the capital – competing to win the title of ‘Best Original Song’.

The live competition consists of three rounds: Qualifying, followed by the Semi-Finals, and the ultimate Grand Final, where one state or territory will emerge victorious.

 

Rap legend, Snoop Dog, expressed in his statements his excitement for this project:

I am honored to host American Song Contest alongside my lil sis Kelly Clarkson, aka Miss Texas. 🎤🎬👊🏾👊🏾.

Kelly Clarkson also added:

have been a fan and love the concept of Eurovision and am thrilled to bring the musical phenomenon to America. I’m so excited to work with Snoop and can’t wait to see every state and territory represented by artists singing their own songs.

The 56 participating artists are expected to be announced in the near future, as there are exactly five weeks left until the start of the American Song Contest.
