With the help of country mega star Reba McEntire, the TODAY Show team revealed their countrified Halloween costumes for 2017 on Tuesday morning. 

A Grand Ole Opry-esque stage was set up at Rockefeller Center in New York City where each television personality-turned-country star took a turn performing as their costumes were revealed. 

The big reveal kicked off with Carson Daly as Billy Ray Cyrus singing “Achy Breaky Heart.” Billy Ray himself joined Daly mid-performance. 

Next was Al Roker who emerged from a smoke-filled pick up truck as Willie Nelson

Hoda Kotb doubled as her favorite country singer Blake Shelton and was shocked when he joined her to sing “Honeybee.”

But the biggest and best costume reveal was yet to come. Savannah Guthrie, donning a full beard, glasses and a blue suit portrayed an impressive Kenny Rogers. As she took the “Opry” stage, she was joined by none other than Matt Lauer dressed as Dolly Parton and the two performed the iconic duet “Islands In The Stream.”
