Sarah McLachlan to perform on Jimmy Kimmel Live! as show returns to some stations

ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live! is set to return to the air on Tuesday, after a nearly weeklong suspension that triggered a national discussion about freedom of speech, with Canadian musician Sarah McLachlan announced as a surprise guest.

Actor Glen Powell was originally the sole celebrity scheduled to appear on Kimmel's Tuesday broadcast, but Sarah McLachlan posted on Instagram on Tuesday that she would be joining the show.

Earlier, McLachlan cancelled a performance at the U.S. premiere for her documentary Lilith Fair: Building a Mystery, which was released on Disney+ on Sept. 21, "in support of free speech." Disney is ABC's parent company.

"It's a gift for all of us to see [this documentary], but also I've grappled with being here tonight and around what to say about the present situation that we are all faced with," McLachlan said at the Ford Theater in Los Angeles on the weekend.

She referred to "the insidious erosion of women's rights, of trans and queer rights, the muzzling of free speech."
