The man who delivered a big “F**k You” to the world with his 2010 hit single is doing a Christmas special?

According to TVGuide.com, CeeLo Green has recorded the new holiday-themed CeeLo’s Magic Moment, to be broadcast on TV Guide Network on Friday, November 30 at 8pm.

Some of the song choices have been disclosed, such as “All I Need Is Love,” which Green sings with The Muppets (although perhaps “It’s Not Easy Being Green” would have been a more appropriate choice?). The singer also duets with Rod Stewart on “Merry Christmas, Baby” and Eric Benet on “Silent Night.”

But there are still a number of song titles that have not yet been disclosed, including what he’ll be singing with his former mentee from The Voice, Broadway veteran Tony Vincent.

Vincent – who played Judas Iscariot in the 2000 Broadway revival of Jesus Christ Superstar – has a history with religious-themed musicals. So maybe he and Green could do a Judas/Jesus “All for the Best” original cast moment from Godspell, complete with Superman t-shirt.

Or since the actor originated the role of St. Jimmy in the Broadway production of Green Day’s American Idiot, he and Green could go for a different kind of “Holiday” song with the cynical anthem of that title from the musical!
