Get ready to bust a move as Nick Cannon puts on his own dancing shoes to kick off Red Nose Day US celebrations later this month.
Viewers across the US will be able to watch the America's Got Talent host's attempt to dance for 24 hours straight live from New York City.
Red Nose Day Danceathon will stream from the NBC Experience story in Rockefeller Center for a full day on the Peacock Network's website on Wednesday, May 20.
The live telecast will include celebrity guests dropping in all day long, as well as specific dance challenges for Cannon to complete.
The 24-hour danceathon has been a popular segment on the original UK Red Nose Day, with presenter Dermot O'Leary taking the challenge this year.
Cannon's dance special will lead directly into the main primetime broadcast of Red Nose Day US on Thursday, May 21.
