Talk about girl power!
Billboard is reporting that the next installation of CMT Crossroads has been set and will feature two of today's hottest women in music.
Kacey Musgraves and Katy Perry will take the stage together later this month in Los Angeles to tape the next episode of CMT's popular musical mash-up with the episode airing June 13 on CMT.

“From the moment I heard ‘Merry Go Round’ by Kacey Musgraves, I knew we were cut from the same songwriter’s cloth,” Perry tells Billboard in a statement. “I have been a fan and a friend of hers from the beginning, always championing her prolific songs every opportunity I get. To me, Kacey Musgraves is an artist that should be a household name because she offers a unique perspective with her writing style. It's going to be a BLAST to play on each other’s songs this Crossroads. It will be a preview to our Prismatic World Tour road trip this summer WHICH I CAN'T WAIT FOR!” Katy told Billboard in a release.
Past collaborations on Crossroads has included acts such as OneRepublic and Dierks Bentley, Fall Out Boy and The Band Perry, The Avett Brothers and Randy Travis, among others.
Kacey and Katy will be teaming up again later this year when the two hit the road together for Perry's Prismatic World Tour in August.
