This is a star-spangled event.
Singers Marine Morris and Chris Stapleton have received six nominations for the 56th Academy of Country Music Awards, putting them ahead of all other nominees for this year’s event.
The news comes after Morgan Wallen, who won “The New Mail Artist of the Year” for 2020, was disqualified by the ACM, as he was caught on camera using a racial slur earlier this year Was.
Reigning a 30-year-old “female artist”, 30-year-old Morris ranked six nominations for both “Song of the Year” and “Single of the Year” with “The Bones”. This gave the artist a nod for “Songwriter of the Year”.
If this wasn’t impressive enough, the “My Church” singer has been nominated for the fifth time as a “female artist” and for the first time for “Music Video of the Year”. In addition, Morris is nominated for Group of the Year along with Hyman.
Meanwhile, Chris Staptle of the nomination said “Male Artist of the Year” (an accolade she was nominated for five times prior and won twice), “Song of the Year” and “Album of the Year”. “Most impressively, he received his third nomination for” Entertainer of the Year “.
Although these nodes were considered somewhat controversial, no women were nominated for accolades despite Morris Milan Stapleton’s number of ACM nominations in other categories.
Fortunately, Miranda Lambert, the most nominated artist in history, worked on five more nominations, bringing her total to 68. The 37-year-old received four lashes for his song “Bluebird” alone: song, solo and video of the year as writer, respectively. Lambert is also once again in the running for “Female Artist of the Year”, a title she has held nine times.
And, for the first time for ACM, the nomination included four black actors a year: Jimmy Allen, Ken Brown, Mickey Guyton and John Legend.
The ACM show airs on CBS on April 18 from Nashville, Tennessee.
