My bet is they wanted her to perform a song she didn’t want to perform... long story short, Kacey says “then you can’t use or play my music during the show”. That’s, that. I could be wrong but it’s not the first time something like this has happened with her, so that’s my guess...
Considering how pressing Reba was about lack of women representation, I HIGHLY doubt she would ever have anything to do with Kacey not performing.

How many artists took the stage more than once last night? Seemed like an unusually large number. Yet no slots for Kelsea and Kacey is just weird. I feel like Keith is winning these EOTYs a year or two late. Ripcord was a huge commercial success, and Graffiti U not so much. Kelsea is 1 of only 2 female country artists that I would ever support. So to say that I was disappointed in Kelsea not showing up last night is an understatement. IMO she should have been nominated instead of Ashley McBride. But, it didn't happen, so live with it. Some other male artists also deserved to be nominated but didn't get anything either however they still showed up at the awards. To me it showed a lack of maturity. The world including the ACM Awards don't owe anybody anything (including any female country artist) . Hopefully, her reaction doesn't come back to bite her in the butt. The music world is very fickle and anybody can be replaced in an instant. Hopefully it is just a bump in the road for her. she is doing so well right now.

The Kacey Musgraves performance snub controversy might have involved Reba who hosted and co-produced the show last night. It seems there was some tension between the two. First, in Reba’s opening monologue included a joke involving females being snubbed from Entertainer Of The Year and singling Kacey out which at the end of when the camera panned to Kacey she was shaking her head in annoyance. Second, I personally didn’t see this on TV BUT obviously it in the article below it did happen. Kasey snubbing Reba during her performance. I guess Reba had something to do with Kacey not performing. Why Reba did this and the comment in the beginning of the show I have no idea! Being a Reba fan for 30 years I hope Reba wasn’t involved www.foxnews.com/entertainment/kacey-musgraves-slammed-on-social-media-for-not-standing-for-reba-mcentires-acm-awards-performanceAn idea, and a couple points: 1) Let’s literally never use anything from Fox News as a source for news, or even mere speculation, about anything, ever. 2) Reba has been singing KM’s praises for the past several months leading up to the ACMs, pointing out in an interview that she would’ve liked to see her up for Entertainer. And...she gave her a massive shoutout in her opening monologue last night. 3) Why must we pick apart women all the damn time? Who cares if she sat, stood, squatted, or kneeled? Chris Stapleton sat through most performances and acceptance speeches. Where’s the story on that? 4) It’s not even mildly surprising that f**king Fox News posts an article picking apart an openly-liberal millennial female country music singer over, literally, nothing. Glad they’ve got their bottom-notch interns scouring Twitter for some accounts with 7 followers each thrashing Kacey Musgraves over, again, literally nothing.
I love how big of a non-story this is and the fact that Fox News tried to make it a thing
I was following the show on twitter yesterday and there was literally ZERO commotion over this

I don't believe for a second that Kacey and Reba have beef and that's the reason for anything that happened.

Awful post, top to bottom. -Support women. -Sorry to hear some other men didn’t get nominated. They really do have it rough. Very sad. -KB not attending an awards show she wasn’t nominated for is...immature? Nah. Also, she’s starting a headlining arena tour in how many days? 2? 3? She was preoccupied.

I mean, where was Jon Pardi? How immature of him to be posting about squirrels on Instagram instead of attending the ACMs!
Bless.

Reba has no pull on who performed and who doesn’t.

Although YOU may not believe it, there are other artists than country females in this world who are having it hard to make it in the music industry, so whatever.

Does FOX even know who Reba is? There’s no way she would ever be so petty as to stop one of the few rising female stars of country music from performing.

As a Reba fan for 30 years I hope you all are right and that Fox News article is trash! And I do remember Reba praising Kasey. 14887fan I agree with EVERYTHING you wrote!!

Kelsea is 1 of only 2 female country artists that I would ever support. This is one of the stupidest things I have ever read on the internet.

Rollingstone magazine wrote this re Kacey. "WTF: Kacey and Chris’s Great Music Mystery Just as perplexing as why Musgraves didn’t perform was why her actual recorded music went unplayed during the show. When most nominees were announced during the broadcast, a brief clip of their music would be heard as the camera panned over the artists — ”Tequila” for Dan + Shay, “Heaven by Kane Brown,” etc. But generic filler music played when Musgraves and Stapleton’s names were announced, leaving many wondering why. A label disagreement about rights? A beats per minute mismatch? Something else? As of press time, reps for both the ACMs, Musgraves and the artists’ shared label home did not respond for a request for comment.

Ratings are in, and this was the lowest-rated ACM Awards show ever with 10 million viewers. Still easily beat anything else, though.

That's what you get when you announce the Artist of the Decade winner a few weeks before the show. They could have built some kind of hype for the award. Run 60 second spots with those artists who have dominated the decade and then you tell viewers to tune in.

Artist of the Decade has nothing to do with it. People are cutting their deals with network TV & cable left and right. Streaming is the way most younger generations consume TV. Until awards shows start partnering with services like Netflix, Hulu, etc. and integrate themselves into the modern age, ratings will continue to plummet.
This goes for all awards shows; not just ACMs.

Although YOU may not believe it, there are other artists than country females in this world who are having it hard to make it in the music industry, so whatever. This statement just showcases your ignorance. Guess what, nobody is saying that there are some males who may have it hard to get into country music - but the fact remains that the odds are consistently against women. When some of the biggest females in the industry right now like Miranda and Kacey are struggling to get airplay, and the fact since 2010 that Kelsea is the only female who is not named Carrie Underwood or Miranda Lambert to get multiple number ones on top of the charts - yet new male that have emerged in the last 5-6 years like Sam Hunt, Brett Young, Jon Pardi, Luke Combs, Dan + Shay, Thomas Rhett, Kane Brown, Cole Swindel, Kip Moore and more have been able to climb to the top of the charts with ease showcases the double standards against females on country radio. Cool you don't like female artists, but do not make it seem that it's equally as hard to males to be successful in country music because that's factually incorrect.
