The
Grand Ole Opry joins Women Rock For The Cure in the fight against
breast cancer this Saturday with its third annual “Opry Goes Pink” show.
ABC’s “Good Morning America” co-anchor Robin Roberts, herself a breast
cancer survivor, will be on hand as a special guest announcer for a
portion of the night’s first show, introducing acts as well as the Women
Rock For The Cure Honorary Survivor of the Year Yolanda Smith. Opry
member Martina McBride will take the stage to “flip the switch,” turning
the Opry’s signature barn backdrop pink in support of breast cancer
awareness. McBride’s current single, “I’m Gonna Love You Through It,”
offers hope to those affected by cancer. Five dollars from every ticket
sold to the night’s second show will be donated to Women Rock For The
Cure. That show is scheduled to include performances from Lauren Alaina,
Edens Edge, Kellie Pickler and Ronnie Milsap.
