PICKLER & BEN Announces May Sweeps Guests

Emmy-nominated daytime talk show "Pickler & Ben" is serving up the star power during May Sweeps. Their NASHVILLE set will welcome country music superstars Blake Shelton, Martina McBride, Reba McEntire and Rascal Flatts. They will also be joined by Bravo reality powerhouse Kim Zolciak-Biermann, author Rachel Hollis and award-winning actresses Kristen Bell, Rita Wilson and Chrissy Metz.

Hosted by Kellie Pickler and Ben Aaron, and recorded in front of a live studio audience in Nashville, "Pickler & Ben" features the best in lifestyle and entertainment. The show highlights feel-good stories featuring guests from across the country; zany comedic bits where Kellie and Ben demonstrate that they are "all-in" on entertaining the audience - from goat yoga to fencing lessons; and cooking segments with celebrity chefs including Cat Cora, Carla Hall, Richard Blais, Gail Simmons, Duff Goldman and Sunny Anderson.
