The 51st annual CMA Awards will take place from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena and air on ABC on Nov. 8. The big news? For the TENTH straight year, Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood will share hosting duties. Other than Vince Gill’s twelve year run as host from 1992-2003, Brad and Carrie have had the longest reign.
The news was announced on stage on Saturday (June 11) during a Billboard live Facebook chat with Brad and Carrie.
So excited to return for the 10th year and host the #CMAawards!!!! https://t.co/SMCGI8vhXz
