NCL has announced today that the USA's 'Queen of Country' - Reba McEntire, will christen Norwegian Epic. The ceremony will take place in New York on July 2.
McEntire, who recently hosted the 45th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards, has achieved legendary status in the music world having sold over 55 million albums worldwide.
Of course, she is also an avid cruiser and has taken several family cruise holidays, most recently on Norwegian Gem in the Mediterranean.
“I met Reba and her family on Norwegian Gem and saw how much they were enjoying the freedom and flexibility that Freestyle Cruising offers. Later, I discovered that they are frequent customers on our ships which is why I believe that Reba is the perfect choice to christen our largest and most innovative ship, Norwegian Epic,” said Kevin Sheehan, chief executive officer of Norwegian Cruise Line. “We are more than thrilled that such a celebrated performer as Reba, who also has experienced our product firsthand, will serve as Norwegian Epic’s Godmother.”
Two completely difrnt cultures.
