It was another elegant evening of entertainment at the annual Kennedy Center Honors. This year's gala honored Cher, Reba McEntire, Philip Glass, Wayne Shorter, and the creators of Hamilton, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Thomas Kail, Andy Blankenbuehler, and Alex Lacamoire, for their contributions to the performing arts and culture. Standout performances included Adam Lambert's stirring rendition of Cher's "Believe," the original Hamilton cast's performance of "The Schuyler Sisters," and Kelly Clarkson's tribute to Reba McEntire, who is also her mother-in-law!
