It’s finally here. The 60th Annual ACMs are streaming on Prime and Twitch tonight. Everything you need to know, from presenters to nominees and performers, is right here.
The Masked Singer was down to the final four last night, and without spoiling who the winner was, I will tell you that out of the four remaining contestants: Pearl, Boogie Woogie, The Mad Scientist, and Coral, two were well-known country singers, and one of those country singers won it all.
Gabby Barrett just announced her new tour. Her “Life I’m Living” tour kicks off June 5th in Nashville and stops in Tulsa on July 12th.
Lainey Wilson is on Insta teasing a new song with a lot of emotion, and it now has me wondering whether she’ll debut it tonight on the ACMs. She’s also teasing that tonight’s performance of “Trailblazer” with Miranda and Reba will be emotional, and during rehearsal, they were struggling to keep it together. Finally, Lainey was just announced as ACM Artist-Songwriter of the Year.
She's an ARTIST and a SONGWRITER… and now she's ACM Artist-Songwriter of the Year!
👏👏 Congratulations, @laineywilson! We can't wait to see more #ACMawards handed out LIVE TOMORROW at 8e|5p on @PrimeVideo! pic.twitter.com/W8XnZfZCn0

Cody Johnson is trying his best to stay cool going into tonight. He’s been nominated 17 times for an ACM and has yet to win. Tonight, he’s nominated for seven awards, including Entertainer of the Year, and he’s not shy about letting the world know he has his heart set on taking that title home.
Parker McCollum, a.k.a. “The Limestone Kid,” just released a new single called “Big Sky.” The song will appear on his new, self-titled album, which will be released on June 27th.
