    AceShowbiz – The full winners of the 55th Academy of Country Music Awards have been announced. The show was held on Wednesday, September 16 after being postponed from its original air date of April 5 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Broadcast live from three iconic Nashville locations Grand Ole Opry House, Ryman Auditorium and the Bluebird Cafe, the show saw a historic moment as Carrie Underwood and Thomas Rhett were tied for the top prize. Both artists shared Entertainer of the Year kudo that night.
    “2020, right?” the “Drinking Alone” singer said upon accepting the award, while elbow-bumping host Keith Urban. The “American Idol” alum had previously won Entertainer of the Year at the ACM Awards twice before, in 2008 and 2010. As for Rhett, it’s his first win in the category at the ACM Awards, but he grabbed another prize at the latest ceremony, Video of the Year for his “Remember You Young” clip.
    Underwood was also nominated for Female Artist of the Year at this year’s ceremony, but lost it to Maren Morris. The “My Church” singer nabbed another award, Music Event of the Year, for her collaboration with Miranda Lambert, “Fooled Around and Fell in Love”, which also features Ashley McBryde, Tenille Townes, Caylee Hammack and Elle King.
    Also shining bright that night was Luke Combs, who bagged two trophies, Male Artist of the Year and Album of the Year for “What You See Is What You Get”. Old Dominion was another artist who scored a double win as Group of the Year and for Song of the Year for their highest charting single to date, “One Man Band”.
    Dan + Shay was named Duo of the Year, while Blake Shelton won Single of the Year with “God’s Country”. Other winners at the ceremony were Tenille Townes as New Female Artist of the Year, Riley Green as New Male Artist of the Year, and Hillary Lindsey as Songwriter of the Year.
    The 55th ACM Awards also saw the return of Taylor Swift, who performed “Betty” from her newest album “Folklore” album, marking her first performance on a country music show in seven years. Underwood, Lambert, Morris, Urban, Combs, Luke Bryan and Kelsea Ballerini were also among performers that night.

      ‘CMT Celebrates Our Heroes: An Artists of the Year Special’ will also see the likes of Florida Georgia Line, Kane Brown, Kelsea Ballerini, Lady Antebellum and many others honoring the real heroes.
      Apr 28, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Country superstars Miranda Lambert, Thomas Rhett, and Florida Georgia Line are set to salute essential workers in a new TV special.
      Instead of the annual CMT Artists of the Year event, network bosses will instead present CMT Celebrates Our Heroes: An Artists of the Year Special on 3 June, when the line-up will also feature Kane Brown, Kelsea Ballerini, Lady Antebellum, Brothers Osborne and Little Big Town, among others, all filmed in isolation during the coronavirus pandemic.
      “The CMT Artists of the Year franchise has always been reflective of the important issues of our time, and this year, we all felt it necessary to shift our focus to honoring the real heroes during these unprecedented times,” reads a statement issued by Leslie Fram, CMT’s senior vice president of music and talent.
      “From the first responders and healthcare workers to members of the military, our educators, food industry workers and so many more, the country music community will come together to honor these heroic men and women.”
      “The evening of unity will feature incredible performances, uplifting tributes and a salute to those risking their lives on the frontlines of this crisis.”
      The 11th annual show, which typically celebrates the achievements of the country community, won’t be the first to turn the spotlight on real-life issues – in 2017, the TV event became a fundraiser to provide relief for those affected by Hurricane Harvey and the Las Vegas concert massacre at the Route 91 Harvest festival.

      The upcoming 55th annual Academy of Country Music Awards is going to be hosted by one of the nominees Keith Urban at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
      Feb 28, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Maren Morris and Thomas Rhett lead the nominees for the 2020 Academy of Country Music (ACM) Awards with five nominations each, combining their appearances and production credits.
      Maren earned her five nominations across four categories, including Female Artist of the Year, Album of the Year for “GIRL”, Music Event of the Year for her involvement on Miranda Lambert’s “Fooled Around and Fell In Love”, and Group of the Year for her work with The Highwomen.
      Meanwhile, Thomas was also nominated in four categories, including Entertainer of the Year, Male Artist of the Year, Album of the Year for “Center Point Road”, and Video of the Year for “Remember You Young”.
      Maren will face off against Kelsea Ballerini, Miranda Lambert, Kacey Musgraves, and Carrie Underwood for Female Artist of the Year, while Thomas has competition from Dierks Bentley, Luke Combs, Chris Stapleton, and Keith Urban for Male Artist of the Year.
      Elsewhere on the shortlist, pop star Justin Bieber also bagged an impressive four nominations for his Dan + Shay collaboration “10,000 Hours”, tying country stars Old Dominion and Blake Shelton who were also successful on the shortlist.
      Rapper Lil Nas X was also nominated for his crossover hit, “Old Town Road”, featuring Billy Ray Cyrus, for Music Event of the Year.
      Women are represented in every major category where they are eligible for the 2020 ACM Awards, including Entertainer of the Year (Carrie Underwood) and album of the year (Maren Morris and Miranda Lambert).
      The awards have faced criticism in years past for their failure to include major female country artists in top categories, with last year’s host Reba McEntire commenting of the past disparities, “It doesn’t make me very happy because we’ve got some very talented women out there who are working their butts off.”
      There were also an impressive twenty-five artists and industry creators who received nominations for the first time, including country music singers Lauren Alaina and Ashley McBryde.
      The nominations were announced on Thursday, February 27, 2020, with Keith Urban also named as the host of the ceremony, replacing Reba, who helmed last year’s prizegiving for the 16th time.
      The 55th ACM Awards take place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on April 5.
