They’re gonna have to wheel Carrie onto the stage... she’s already huge lol, but still pumped nonetheless! She looks fabulous pregnant, I can’t wait to see her style choices this year! And I’m hoping for anything other than LW, but I totally understand if she performs LW as it’s her current single... can’t wait!

Hmm. Strangely enough, I do believe it.

I'll make sure to take a bathroom break when Keith performs.

I get why because "Meant To Be" is such a huge hit but gross at Bebe Rexha performing. I already hate the fact that people think of her now when it comes to women in country music. I found my song that I will use to go to the bathroom during the award.

Yes! So glad Baybay Rexha is performing so that "Meant to Be" can continue to sell and stream very well so it can get its 5 more weeks at #1 so it can be #1 on Hot Country Songs for a whole year!

And then it can be undeniably the biggest, most important country song of all time! Move over Loretta, Dolly, and Reba, there's a new Queen of Country! |

Thrilled about the additions of Kacey Musgraves & Pistol Annies!
Not super thrilled about getting (another) live TV performance of a song that is celebrating its 1-year anniversary of being sent to radio *today.* How many more times do we need to have this song promo’d on major televised shows/events? ACMs, CMA Fest, James Corden, Ellen, AMAs, and now the CMAs.

With the performers announced so far, it should be a nice mix of sounds. If we just take half-educated guesses on what each will play:
Kelsea Ballerini - Miss Me More
Luke Bryan - What Makes You Country
Kenny Chesney - Better Boat
Dan + Shay - Speechless
Old Dominion - Make It Sweet
Carrie Underwood - Love Wins
Keith Urban - Never Comin' Down
Dierks Bentley & Brothers Osborne - Burning Man
FGL + Bebe Rexha - Meant To Be
Kacey Musgraves - (something amazing off of Golden Hour)
Pistol Annies - Got My Name Changed Back
Thomas Rhett - Sixteen
I could do without FGL + Bebe and I'd prefer a different Keith song, but otherwise I am excited to see all of the other songs to be performed on the CMA stage.

Hoping Carrie does something other than LW. Ideally, opening the show with LW would set a very nice tone for the show, I think. So if she opens with it, I think it could make for a “moment”... Nevertheless, I would love to see her do another album track... or both.

She doesn’t have any relevant solo work at the moment, so why not let her group perform? Plus, considering the lack of females in country music who get airtime, I don’t understand complaining when a female act does. |

I would love it if they gave the five BNA nominees a slot. Besides Chris Janson, I’m a big fan of all of their latest efforts.

Besides Miranda is one of the biggest female artists in the genre right now and since 2010 (I could be wrong) there hasn’t been a year she hasn’t performed. Let’s not forget the year she performed an album track (Bathroom sink) just for the fun of it |

You said "they haven't been good since their first album" as your own personal criteria (which many would disagree with) for why they shouldn't perform, which honestly has nothing to do with why they received a performance slot on the CMAs. That's why I'm confused. |
