The stars are expected to drop by to chat with anchors Maggie Rodriguez and Dave Price from CBS News's "The Early Show," the network said in a news release Monday.

The program will also feature performances by country music artist Reba McEntire, and the Broadway casts of "West Side Story" and "Ragtime," as well as the off-Broadway ensemble of "Dreamgirls."

Actor and comedian Jamie Kennedy has also been tapped to offer a "Man on the Street" viewpoint as he reports and interacts with the crowd.
