Another country music awards nominations announcement, another year where the ladies are left on the outside looking in for Entertainer Of The Year.
This time it’s the 56th Academy Of Country Music Awards that will air on CBS on Sunday, April 18th, from Nashville. It will be available in all of the Florida markets such as Tampa, Orlando, Miami, and Jacksonville.
The nominees for Entertainer Of The Year are..
Chris Stapleton
Eric Church
Luke Combs
Luke Bryan
Thomas Rhett
No Miranda Lambert. No Maren Morris. No. Women.
The ACM hasn’t given to the award to a woman alone since 2011, when they gave it to Taylor Swift.
Gabby Barrett was 11.
Last year, Carrie Underwood, a consensus favorite, had to share the honor with Thomas Rhett.
Fans, especially female fans, who just want some representation in the genre of music they love had the following to say…
love the females in this line up 😍 really great choices y’all it’s gonna be a tough category 😍😍😍
oh….oh wait no once again it’s MOTY pt 2 since y’all say you’re gonna treat the women better and do the exact opposite

These award shows are well watched. CBS will also be airing The Grammy Awards in the coming days.
