To celebrate President Obama’s swearing in, Katy Perry will headline the official children’s inaugural ball.

First Lady Michelle Obama and Vice President Joe Biden’s wife, Jill, will host the event, which takes place on January 19 in Washington, D.C. and honors military families, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Katy is just one of the many artists, including fun., Alicia Keys, John Legend, Marc Anthony, Usher, Stevie Wonder, Far East Movement, Mindless Behavior, Smokey Robinson and the cast of Gleehonoring the President this weekend at official inaugural galas.

Beyoncé, Kelly Clarkson and James Taylor have also been confirmed as performers for Obama’s swearing-in ceremony on January 21.

This isn’t the first time the “Part of Me” singer has showed her support for those in uniform. She went patriotic for the 2010 VH1 Divas Salute The Troops singing “California Gurls” in an American flag bustier and donning a Jessica Rabbit-esque sparkly red gown for “Firework.”
