Happy to see Lauren Alaina and Carly Pearce are presenting. Same with Lady Antebellum, waiting anxiously for them to release new music.

How...on god’s green earth are we possibly not going to get a Kacey Musgraves performance? I would be appalled if it turned out that the ACMs never extended her a performance slot. I’m just forcing myself to assume that either she turned it down/there were discrepancies behind the scenes, or they’re waiting to announce her until the day of (or day before) a la Beyonce/Dixie Chicks and Timberlake/Stapleton at the CMAs.
Also a massive ugh @ Lauren Alaina and Carly Pearce being reduced to presenters. I guess it’s better than nothing, but...ugh.

Where are some of the male artists who had great success in the last year i.e B.Young, D.Lynch, S McCreery ? They didn't even get a spot as presenters. Yet they have Hunter Hayes and Lauren Alaina up there.
These awards shows are something else.

It’d be nice to have the male talent pool rotated out, given they’ve got so, so, so, so, so, so, so [...] many to choose from.)

Their are 5 ACM female vocalist nominees:
Carrie is performing solo (one would think her single) Maren is performing with Brothers Osborne (but one would think her song) Miranda is performing a medley Ashley McBryde isn't doing her single, and is only performing with Church Kacey isn't even listed as attending
Of the group of the year nominees only Maddie and Tae isn't currently listed as performing
Meanwhile every Male Vocalist nominee has a solo slot, and every male group of the year nominee is performing, plus many other non-nominated males are performing

I mean since when has the ACM Awards tried to put on a good show or really cared. They finally have gotten on the right track with Reba hosting. But I haven't taken them seriously for a while now and have always seen them as the vastly inferior award show.

By not going, because they won’t let her sing what she wants.

But if it’s anything like the GRAMMYs, where they’re essentially telling her what to perform, and it’s not what she/her team want to do, then this would make more sense. In any case, if she doesn’t end up performing, then there’s got to be some major BTS-reason explaining what happened.

Not even a fan, but I hope she wins something and then they have to say on stage she didn’t even show. I wonder with the last few spots they just announced performance wise, they were saving for Kacey and Kelsea, and they both said Fuck you.

We need to find out what the truth is. Was Kacey asked to perform and she declined or was she not asked at all?

So let's recklessly speculate and be hopeful... Miranda is teasing something on social media and it's presumably new music. Maybe (hopefully) she'll perform this on Sunday. A medley of her hits doesn't really sound her style...

According to someone on Carrie Fans, Carrie will also have a solo performance, and it will not be Love Wins. They said it comes from a very reliable source.

Why do we care about Kacey again? Her voice is boring and so are all her performances.. Probably one of the most sleepy country stars out there..
She must be a fad or something cuz I really don't get it.. She has never and likely will never excite me..

The fact is that she has sold more albums in the last year in country music than probably anyone else but she is not getting to perform on the show that has her nominated for 3 awards. Other artist that are not nominated at all are getting to perform but not Kacey. If it’s Kacey’s choice to not perform that’s one thing but the ACM’s have a history of not letting her perform or other women for that matter. Carrie & Miranda are the only 2 nominated female artist that are getting to perform a solo song. EVERY Male artist nominated is getting a solo performance.

Theory:
I have no clue how it works, but what if UMG has decided to throw their support behind Carrie to help launch the tour? Do artists generally know if they’re being supported by way of campaigning and such? PERHAPS Kacey is sitting out (as of now) due to something like this? Highly unlikely because it’s not like “Female Artist” is her only nomination, and she’s heavily favored to walk away a winner, anyway; Album of the Year in particular. Just a thought... but I have a feeling she’ll be performing, maybe they’re planning a big surprise! :)

Sounds like based on that interview she'll be singing "Love Wins" tomorrow night with the special female guests previously announced above, so hopefully there will still be a solo performance of a new single from Cry Pretty as well (since it was mentioned above that she would be performing twice).

She’s performing twice. Once with the group, and again solo. She said she’s “switching it up to something fun,” aka, no “Love Wins.” Hallelujah
