Made the final 5 nominees for the award. Now if they could just announce her as a performer...

How ironic would it be if Carrie won Artist of the Year at the AMAs yet the CMAs didn't give her Entertainer of the Year...

I'm so confused. Why wasn't Garth nominated? ;) Joking aside, I don't expect this one at all. Just looking at the retweets @amas have for each artist since posted 4 hours ago, Carrie is clearly in last out of the five: twitter.com/amas?lang=enSelena - 4.6k Ariana - 3.6k Justin - 3.3k Rihanna - 1.6k Carrie - 277 Regardless, it's an honor to be nominated and well-deserved. Looking forward to watching Carrie take Country Female and a 5th (out of 5!) Country Album. Also, I would be shocked if she doesn't perform.

I feel like Carrie's fans probably vote the old fashioned way (lol). You know, we follow links and physically vote, not just re-tweet like the youngins these days.
I think she's probably doing much better in actual votes... Carrie isn't the social media star the others are, but she made it in the top 5 somehow. I'd be shocked if she won, but not counting it out! That would just be sooo cool!

I'm so excited to hopefully see Carrie take up-to 2 televised awards (Country female and Country Album) home and perform!
AOTY has to be a ridiculous long shot.

Carrie has accepted both awards on stage before, I believe. They'll likely present one and announce she's also the winner for the other (assuming she wins both).

PCAs suddenly saw the error of their ways and added Carrie to the final 5 for Female Country goo.gl/VZaVZh

Carrie surprised Crystal Gayle at the Opry tonight to extend an invitation for her to become the next member.

That's amazing! How on Earth is Crystal not already a member? So cool, though, that Carrie got to invite her! Would love a video of their performance together!

That's hysterical. I knew that had to be a mistake. It means she had enough write-in votes to still make the top 5 despite not being included in the choices. Definitely cackle-worthy! Go Carrie fans!

Crystal is the first woman since Carrie to be inducted, right? That's amazing. She's a great choice!

For the record, Grammy noms come out on 12/5. So, in a few weeks. Fingers crossed that she didn't TBC/SYA herself again and have herself cancelled out of the Country Solo Vocal category.

Still zero word on whether or not she'll be at the AMAs?

Carrie's team is pushing WAY too hard for Artist of the Year if she isn't going to be there. I don't think they'd push so hard if she wasn't going. Also, remember the Facebook performance teaser showing Carrie's silhouette? That can't just be random, right? Maybe she's being saved as a surprise performer? I mean, she has the time off and that time off can't be completely random and coincidental? There are too many pieces in place for a performance not to come to fruition... or at least an appearance.

Yeah, I'm thinking there'll be some last-minute announcement confirming her or something. They've also only got 3 women on a lineup of 15 performers. Not that that'd be new for awards shows, but yeah, it all makes too much sense for her to be MIA from the show, especially considering she's one of the top nominees and was literally the only country representative out of all 10 Artist of the Year noms this year.

I got my life and more at her show last night. She was crazy good. If I hadn't known the setlist ahead of time I probably would've been that much more impressed because it was really solid throughout until "Clock Dont Stop" that is.
Somehow I managed to stand in the perfect spot, too. Whenever she appeared onstage she happened to be facing my direction almost every time. She sang "Wasted" right in front of me! :'(

Looks like the AMAs might be out of the question.

Welp. I mean, she definitely deserves her time off! Just seems a little odd considering she's a top nominee, she usually jumps at opportunities like that.

I'm just saying this, She's not going to be at the AMA's is she? if she was they would had already announce it. I'm losing faith real fast. I think they waste our time for voting Artist when she's not going to be there to accept it if she won it..Carrie deserves to have a break but she missing out on something big like this.

First off, earlier today she posted a video to her social media accounts with Keith Urban promoting their upcoming tour. It appeared to be recorded on some kind of set - maybe the set of "The Fighter" music video? I don't know if it'll be a single here, but I'm willing to bet money it'll be released "down under" to promote the tour. OR, it could just be promo for the tour in general. Anyway, if that was live or freshly recorded, she clearly has things going on - she's not missing the show for no reason. Also, Carrie is one of the hardest working people in the industry, she makes it a point to be involved with every show she's nominated at and/or invited to. For all we know, some MASSIVE surprise performance is in the works!?! Wishful thinking, I know... At this point, it's looking unlikely that she'll even be there - but I'm sure she has her reasons. I will miss her considering it seemed super likely she'd be there given her nominations, but life goes on... On a related note, no one is being forced to waste any time - it's the fans' prerogative to vote; that's not on Carrie. She is super humble and NEVER asks us personally to vote, when her account(s) solicit voting, it's her team behind it - not Carrie.
I still have an inkling she'll be involved in some capacity, but my hopes are not high. I'd just like to see her win one or two awards! :)
