CBS/AP NEW YORK Watching Beyonce on TV may become as much a Thanksgiving tradition as chowing down on pumpkin pie and playing flag footbal.

For the second year in a row, Beyonce will be strutting her stuff during ABC's prime-time special featuring the singer on Thanksgiving night.

"Beyonce's I Am ... World Tour" will start at 9:30 p.m.ET on Nov. 25. The show will be a combination of performance clips from her her tour and backstage moments. Beyonce's husband, Jay-Z, and Kanye West will make guest appearances.

ABC said Monday the special highlights the work of producing a highly visual act, "complicated by a performer who will tolerate nothing less than perfection."
