When will the nominations be announced? I am going to guess beginning of February. I found on musicrow the voting ballots for each round. The second round is the round they announce (unless I am mistaken). That ballot closes today. So I would take it as they announce within the next few weeks. I know this isn't an exact answer but they haven't announced a date yet.

Well when did they announce them last year? It seems as if they're following a similar timeline to last year's show.

In addition, a special taping will be held the night after the awards show at the same venue, as done in year's past with tributes to George Strait, Brooks & Dunn, and the leading women of Country music. The theme/purpose of the event is TBD. We now know!

Way too much time on my hands so here goes with my predictions....ACM awards also tend to have one left field nominee, that they nominate SEVERAL times...(exhibit A - Heidi Newfield for Johnny & June) So if something seems weird that is why.
Entertainer of the Year: -Luke Bryan -Blake Shelton -Carrie Underwood -Taylor Swift -Jason Aldean -Little Big Town
Male Vocalist -Blake Shelton -Luke Bryan -Kenny Chesney -Jason Aldean -Brad Paisley
Female Vocalist -Miranda Lambert -Taylor Swift -Carrie Underwood -Jana Kramer -Sara Evans
Album of the Year -Tuskegee, Lionel Richie -Night Train, Jason Aldean -Chief - Eric Church (still eligible?) -Red, Taylor Swift -Tornado - Little Big Town
Song of the Year -"Over You", Miranda Lambert -"Pontoon", Little Big Town -"Springsteen", Eric Church -"Begin Again" - Taylor Swift -"Blown Away", Carrie Underwood
Single of the Year -"Why Ya Wanna" - Jana Kramer -"Wanted", Hunter Hayes -"Pontoon", Little Big Town -"Blown Away", Carrie Underwood -"Cruise", Florida Georgia Line
Vocal Duo -Thompson Square -The Civil Wars -Love and Theft -Florida Georgia Line -Sugarland
Vocal Group -Lady Antebellum -The Band Perry -Little Big Town -Gloriana -Zac Brown Band
Vocal Event -"Safe & Sound", Taylor Swift feat. The Civil Wars -"Feel Like a Rockstar", Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw -"The Only Way I Know", Jason Aldean feat. Luke Bryan and Eric Church -"Easy", Lionel Richie feat. Willie Nelson -"Don't Rush", Kelly Clarkson feat. Vince Gill
New Artist -Brantley Gilbert -Jana Kramer -Florida Georgia Line
Music Video -"Over You", Miranda Lambert -"Blown Away", Carrie Underwood -"Pontoon", Little Big Town -"Begin Again", Taylor Swift -"Wanted" - Hunter Hayes
It's a shame because I think I Drive Your Truck is too soon for these nominations and it might be out of peoples' minds by next years.
Yes, after their big wins in the CMA's, I have Little Big Town as a Entertainer nominee. Yes, I know they have only one number one and no sustained radio success over their careers, but these award shows tend to follow each others' leads and Little Big Town is beloved by fans and the indstry alike. I think they lead the nominations with 6...every category they are eligible for. Remember wierder things have happened...Heidi Newfield.

Nominees very soon, I'm very excited for this! I think they may have given away Miranda as an Entertainer nominee. "Think Miranda should be this year's ACM Entertainer of the Year? Send in your video and you could help announce her as a nominee! Watch the video below to find out how."

Send in your video and you could help announce her as a nominee! Watch the video below to find out how." I seriously hope Miranda's not a nominee. Love her and the music she's released during this time period, but Kenny Chesney, Carrie Underwood, Tim McGraw, Jason Aldean, Blake Shelton, and Taylor Swift each deserve the nomination more. Buuuuuut, I can see where they're coming from with her nomination. I just hope that it doesn't happen. Anyways, nominations come out tomorrow. I'm guessing that the big nominees will be Eric Church, Jason Aldean, and Carrie Underwood.

I don't think Miranda should win an EOTY award by any means, but I can get behind her being nominated. As someone who has seen her live (and from the pit, no less), I was definitely thoroughly entertained by her performance. She knows how to put on a good show. I realize the EOTY award is more than that, so that's why I wouldn't pick her to win (I think Carrie should get it this year, tbqh), though I would love to see her nominated for it.

I agree with indulge. I can see why Miranda would be nominated this year, but I don't think I could get behind her winning. I personally find her to be a better all-around entertainer and ambassador for the genre than her over-rewarded husband, but I think others (like the ones you stated, 14887fan) have had bigger years and are arguably "bigger" "entertainers."
If Blake wins it... I might punch something.

Could Carrie, Miranda, and Taylor all be nominated for Entertainer? Have 3 females every been nominated at the same time before?

Could Carrie, Miranda, and Taylor all be nominated for Entertainer? Have 3 females every been nominated at the same time before? That would be crazy, and would really be a close fight; particularly between Carrie and Taylor. I can see how the ACMS would try to mix it up as to potentially dethrone Taylor, and prevent a 3X win for Carrie and Taylor. However, this year, Carrie and Taylor are both two of the most deserving, more so Carrie imho. We'll see how it goes, but that would be something! Here's who I think MAY be nominated for Entertainer: Kenny Chesney Blake Shelton Brad Paisley Keith Urban Jason Aldean Luke Bryan Taylor Swift Miranda Lambert Carrie Underwood Tim McGraw Rascal Flatts Of those, I think the final 6 will be (assuming they keep it at 6): Blake Shelton Brad Paisley Kenny Chesney or Luke Bryan Carrie Underwood Taylor Swift Jason Aldean

^ Brad Paisley took most of the past year off between Camouflage and his new single, so I doubt he'll be nominated.

Don't be shocked if Carrie isn't nominated for EOTY.
I feel like there's a lot of "bloc voting" in Nashville (basically Blake/Miranda/Taylor's record companies voting for each other, while all 3 record labels intentionally omit Carrie from the nominations).
EOTY final 5: Blake Miranda (taking Carrie's spot) Taylor Jason Kenny

Wouldn't shock me in the slightest if Carrie was left off of the EOTY list since it's happened (wrongfully) several times in the past, but this year would be absolutely inexcusable. The ENTIRE Blown Away era -- from the release of "Good Girl" in February 2012 to the end of the first leg of her "Blown Away Tour" in December 2012 -- occurred in the eligibility period for this year's ACM's.
I wouldn't be shocked if it happened, but I, as well as many, many others, as well as the mass media (like what happened at the CMAs in 2010), will be mortified.

Do you think its possible for them to leave Taylor out? Didn't her tour stop in March? She didn't really release anything until WANEGBT (not counting the collabs). It seemed she was pretty quiet for the first 1/2 of the year.

^ Brad Paisley took most of the past year off between Camouflage and his new single, so I doubt he'll be nominated. He did 61 shows in 2012 and his tour was the third highest-grossing country tour of the year, behind only Kenny Chesney/Tim McGraw and Jason Aldean. He may have been quieter than usual on the radio, but his tour was still pretty huge. If Carrie doesn't get an EOTY nod tomorrow, then I give up on trying to guess what on earth else she has to do to get it. Top female country touring artist of 2012. A great new album that spent 2 weeks atop the all-genre charts and at least 7 weeks atop the country charts, and sold more than a million copies. Two #1 singles, including one that just won two Grammys. I know she's won ACM EOTY before, but they did snub her after her Play On Tour (and after the outcry from her CMA snub), so I'm hoping they don't pull that again. I don't believe Taylor deserves an EOTY nod this year. She was nowhere to be seen on Pollstar's Top 50 tours of 2012, and she focused a lot on her pop success last year rather than country, which doesn't say "country ambassador" to me. It was a very quiet year for her in the country field. That said, I'd be quite shocked if she isn't nominated.

Why does Blake Shelton deserve an EOTY nod? I feel like I've seen this discussed before but I don't get it. Maybe he's a male vocalist of the year nominee, but certainly not EOTY.
EOTY nominees should be
Kenny Jason Luke Miranda Carrie Taylor

I don't really care who will be nominated for EOTY as long as Carrie gets nominated in it.
