Country Music's Biggest Night Looms: What to Expect at the 59th CMA Awards
The wait is almost over for country music fans worldwide as the 59th CMA Awards is set to take place on ABC on November 19. This year's ceremony promises to be an exciting one, with a star-studded lineup of performers and nominees vying for top honors.
Hosted by none other than Lainey Wilson, this year's show marks her solo hosting debut, making her the third woman to helm the prestigious award ceremony after country legends Dolly Parton and Reba McEntire. Wilson herself has been nominated six times, including a nod for Entertainer of the Year alongside Luke Combs, Cody Johnson, Chris Stapleton, and Morgan Wallen.
In the running for Entertainer of the Year are three female artists - Lainey Wilson, Megan Moroney, and Ella Langley. Langley and Riley Green won Musical Event of the Year last year for their hit "You Look Like You Love Me", which is now nominated again this year in both Single and Song of the Year categories. Langley herself is also in contention for New Artist of the Year alongside Shaboozey, Zach Top, Stephen Wilson Jr., and Tucker Wetmore.
Other notable nominees include country powerhouses Little Big Town and Lady A, who are vying for Vocal Group of the Year against Rascal Flatts, The Red Clay Strays, and Old Dominion. This year's ceremony promises to be filled with excitement, glamour, and memorable performances as some of country music's biggest stars come together on one night.
The live streaming preshow, "On The Red Carpet at the CMA Awards", will go down earlier in the day on November 19, featuring exclusive interviews with nominees, performers, and presenters, as well as red carpet fashion analysis. Fans can stream it all live on OnTheRedCarpet.com, CMAAwards.com, YouTube.com/OnTheRedCarpet, and Hulu.
As the music industry's biggest night approaches, country fans worldwide are eagerly awaiting the announcements of winners for some of the most prestigious awards in country music.

u know what's even more hyped than the performances tho? the drama 
i heard there's some tension between Lainey Wilson and one of the other female nominees for Entertainer of the Year... let's just say it's gonna be a wild night 
but for real, can't wait to see who takes home those awards 
. but honestly, can we talk about how cluttered the nominees list gets? so many talented artists, but it feels like we're just getting more and more choices 
. what's up with all these new faces trying to break in? give me a good ol' country classic any day 
And can we talk about how fabulous Little Big Town and Lady A are? 
So I'm thinking this year's 59th CMA Awards is gonna be lit 
. Little Big Town and Lady A are always a powerhouse when it comes to Vocal Group of the Year. And with all these talented artists competing in multiple categories...this is shapin' up to be one wild night 
and I love how they're giving it up for the ladies this year - six female artists are vying for Entertainer of the Year, which is so inspiring 
, and Langley's "You Look Like You Love Me" is one of my jams, let's get that win! 
. Like, who needs another award show when we already have like a million of them? And hosting it on ABC is just lazy, can't they come up with something more original? Lainey Wilson's gonna host solo? Okay, cool I guess... she's got six nominations, that's impressive... but is it too much? I mean, six times nominated for Entertainer of the Year? No thanks. It's all so predictable and formulaic. And don't even get me started on the nominees... same old country powerhouses over and over again 
. Can't we see some new faces or something? This whole thing just feels like more of the same old music industry hype 
This reminds me, life's biggest nights can be overwhelming, but it's how we handle them that truly matters. Just like Lainey Wilson is stepping into her hosting debut, we're all stepping into new situations and opportunities every day 
. It's okay to feel nervous or excited - the key is to stay focused on what you want to achieve 
. And remember, it's not about who wins or loses, but how we learn and grow from the experience 
.
can't wait for all the performances & announcements on nov 19, it's gonna be a wild ride 
. And don't even get me started on the red carpet fashion analysis 
- those designers are gonna be raking it in from all the exposure.
. They're always good for some juicy interviews and behind-the-scenes peeks at the performers' prep work. And hey, if Lainey Wilson wins Entertainer of the Year (which she probably won't), at least she'll have a sweet trophy to add to her shelf 
.
. And what's up with the snubbing of some newer artists who actually produce some fresh music? It feels like the same old country stars are dominating the scene again 
. Plus, who doesn't love seeing Little Big Town and Lady A go head-to-head against some newbloods like Shaboozey and Zach Top? It's gonna be a wild ride on November 19th! 
.
And who knows, maybe we'll even get some epic performances from our favorite artists 
. Bring it on, CMA Awards 2025! 
. And can we talk about Langley and Riley Green's collab "You Look Like You Love Me" 
! Bring it on, CMA Awards, let's get this party started 
!
I'm thinking that Lainey Wilson is going to bring a fresh energy as the host - solo hosting debut is cool!
