Lainey Wilson Returns As Host Of The CMA Awards
Lainey Wilson is officially back as the host of the 59th Annual CMA Awards.
This is Lainey’s second straight year as host, but her first time doing it solo. Last year, she shared the job with Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning.
“I grew up watching the CMA Awards like it was the Super Bowl, so to be hosting for a second year is a true honor. I’m humbled that CMA has trusted me with this role, and I can’t wait to love on this genre that has given me so much.”
In addition to hosting, she’s also tied with Ella Langley and Megan Moroney for the most CMA nominations this year with six, and that includes Entertainer of the Year.
So, she could be telling jokes as the host and giving an acceptance speech back-to-back.
The show airs live from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Wednesday, November 19th, on ABC.
