Beyonce has Thanksgiving special on ABC

[November 02, 2010]  NEW YORK (AP) -- Beyonce (bee-AHN'-say) and the ABC network may become a Thanksgiving tradition.

For the second year in a row, ABC is airing a prime-time special with the singer on turkey night. "Beyonce's I Am ... World Tour" will start at 9:30 p.m. Eastern on Nov. 25.

The show will be a combination of performance clips from the tour, as well as backstage moments. Beyonce's husband, Jay-Z, and Kanye West will make guest appearances.

ABC said Monday the special highlights the work of producing a highly visual act, "complicated by a performer who will tolerate nothing less than perfection."
