Kellie Pickler is going to be a part of the Indianapolis 500 parade on the Saturday before the race, Memorial Day weekend.

She will perform her unreleased single "Tough" from her upcoming album as the opening number for the parade, then ride the parade route with the 33 Indy 500 drivers.

I'm very excited to hear the new song, but I think I'm more excited to know she won't be getting behind the wheel of a race car!
