Members of the Country Music Association (CMA) Awards love Morgan Wallen so much while giving Beyonce Knowles the cold shoulder this year despite her hit country album 'Cowboy Carter' and No. 1 single 'Texas Hold 'Em.'
- September 10, 2024
AceShowbiz - Country music superstar Morgan Wallen dominates the 58th Annual CMA Award nominations with seven nods, including the prestigious Entertainer of the Year category. Cody Johnson and Chris Stapleton follow with five nominations each while Post Malone and Lainey Wilson receive four nominations apiece.
In a surprising snub, Beyonce Knowles' "Cowboy Carter" album and its hit single "Texas Hold 'Em" failed to secure any nominations. Despite the album's historic performance on Billboard charts and its significant cultural impact, it was overlooked by CMA voters.
Post Malone's "I Had Some Help" featuring Wallen is responsible for the country singer's impressive nomination count. The song is nominated in multiple categories, including Single of the Year, Song of the Year, Musical Event of the Year, and Music Video of the Year.
Other notable nominees include Luke Combs, Jelly Roll, and Kacey Musgraves, each with three nominations.
The CMA Awards, voted on by members of the Country Music Association, recognize outstanding achievements in country music. The awards ceremony will be held on November 20, and will air live on ABC from Nashville's Bridgestone Arena.
