Rita Moreno and Cicely Tyson in the same ceremony and that's just perfection.

Aretha and Carole’s entire reaction still makes me cry after watching it a thousand times.

WTF was this stacked Kennedy Center Honors like damn!!! Two of the most iconic trail blazing talented actresses, one of the best maestros to ever live, one of the most well-known influential directors with the best film franchises, and one of the greatest singer-songwriters ever. Plus the damn tributes were at their best.

Rewatching this and seeing Carrie Fisher and Aretha Franklin I was just overwhelmed with emotion. And of course Gina and Rita Moreno and Cicely Tyson made me cry.

I really love Carole King!

I believe Aretha stopped playing piano around this time due to the pain. I think this is why Carol was so amazed to see her at that piano!

I am ugly crying, blessed the amazing Cicely Tyson, and all the wonderfulness she left in this world.

The Carole tribute was pretty darn perfect. Great choices for tribute artists.

I thought I cried when Aretha sang, but when CeCe sang "BLESSED ASSURANCE" IT WAS OVA, not over but OVA. Miss Tyson was on her feet; when you KNOW LIKE YOU KNOW you can't help but praise him, and the dam broke.😭😭😭😭

She was so effortless. What an incredible woman.

The Kennedy Centre Honors series, especially this one, re-affirms my faith in all things bright and beautiful. Through their brilliant performances honoring the honorees, these remarkably talented artists, in their amazingly incredible presentations, remind me, so cogently, about a better time that we all knew and loved. I cry, laugh, and feel; like I haven't felt like for so long. Its like being born again and seeing life and its possibilities, afresh, for the first time. The lives and times and of the honorees parallel, and illuminate ours. Shukriya, Dhanyavad, Nandri, Thank you 😊 🙏

thank you for posting this. these artists are legends. it was a thrill to watch.

42:49-57:07 is the tribute for the legendary Ms. Cicely Tyson and what a beautiful tribute it was in celebration of her wonderful career. Rest in peace Ms. Tyson and thank you.

Aretha killed it twice in one night, with natural woman and in the finale alongside the other great singers. My favorite KCH of all time!

Wow. I'm a huge Miles Davis fan. I had no idea he and Cecilie were married. I can watch Yo Yo Ma for hours. Carole's reaction to Aretha gets me every time I watch that performance. The way Aretha just throws her coat down onto the stage. She was truly Queen of soul.

listen carefully to the orchestration its exceptionally gorgeous

The performances in given for these artists were incredible, I got goosebumps when George Lucas held Carole King's hands up in the air in 1:27:21.

When Aretha Franklin walked out it caught everybody by surprise and her performance blew everybody else out of the water in a night of other great performances.

Absolutely amazing! Art, music performances and what a privilege this live audience had to see such a great performance by Aretha!

The stage is too small for Rita and West Side Story

Sue Walsh, I totally agree. Miss Tyson is still magnificent ! I was lucky to meet the great lady while she visited my Mother at her home to gather from my Mom a rare sapphire -blue rose cutting from among my Moms garden of rare roses from all over the world. We chatted for a short spell and learned quickly, she is truly a special, amazing lady. Miss Tyson collected her rose cutting, than stuffed in my Mom's shirt pocket her family recipe for corn bread. Than arm and arm walked slowly together to the front of my Mom's estate. The old ladies hugged and kissed, waveing to me and than was driven away in her limo. I'll never forget that day.

This was FANTASTIC so much inspiration! R.I.P. Dame Aretha, and Dame Cicely!

Representation is important to all cultures.

OMG Aretha! We all bow 🙇‍♀️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Miss.Cicely Tyson look sooooo darn beautiful for her age wowww#90 God bless her!!

Thanks Bro. It's good to take time out and reflect on the goodness of great people whom have made it possible for our freedom and independence. Least we forget the women of Afghanistan today; searching for theirs freedom.

of course carole king was for the finale and omg what a brilliant way to end with aretha franklin. haha. she really had that purse with her before playing the piano.

Her mother was jus scared for her and alot of people who go to Hollywood do not come back ok. Drugs, see, alcohol gripped them and tear them apart like nothing. I Am so glad u had your mother's determination and grit to stay on the right course.

Thank you so much for loading this beautiful program but where is 2016 and last year. Can we see those please?

I’m so glad she got all these honors before she passed. ❤️🥲
