7 Time Entertainer of the Year! Way to go Garth! Maybe this will be a wake up call to Carrie to start making good music again. I feel that her past 2 albums have been subpar material wise and it has held her back. Go ahead and tell me how wrong I am.
Loved the Maren album win. It is a great album.
Still not sure why Ashley Mcbryde won. She was really the only one nominated without a hit.
Kacey getting Female was great. Her and Carrie's voice are the two best in the genre by far.
Performers were good tonight. The Dierks tribute was by far the worse.
Hoping Garth brings the Stadium Tour to Bryant Denny in the spring!

I pray she comes back so hard next time around. I cannot believe after all of this that she lost. How? Who's voting for Garth? I am truly devastated. Goodnight. Unfortunately, I think there's a good amount of voters & industry people that love Garth. For example, during CMA week Taste of Country for the last few years does an anonymous poll for artists to pick who they think out of the nominees should win Entertainer. Garth was 3rd (behind Eric & Carrie) from fellow artists. I understand there's a level of respect for Garth, but there's no way he should have won this year. I kinda want to know which artists would have voted/did vote for Garth. 🤔

If she couldn't garner the support tonight, I'm not sure she'll ever be able to. Perhaps that's the most upsetting part of this... Such a shame, it really is. Both times to Garth, too, just sucks. I feel for Carrie because I know she has to be pretty upset... I am hoping this lights a fire, though, and she comes back with a killer album era/tour.

Well you are most definitely not speaking the truth, and delusional if you think that Garth legitimately deserved this ward tonight.

Carrie apparently needs to grow a penis, have a mediocre year, and have no hits in order to win EoTY apparently?

It's funny because Garth has won an award in the past that he didn't feel he deserved, so he left it on the podium and refused to accept it. He legitimately campaigned for this one tonight, and truly felt he deserved it. Oh please, him leaving that award on the stage was fake AF. He's so overtly sanctimonious sometimes it's cringey.

More so I am going to ask what her albums have to do with anything when Garth has been winning EOTY in years where he's not even releasing albums? And are you saying his singles this decade have been great?

He’s so unbelievably fake. Glad Church called him out in 2017.

You mean like when she didn't get nom'd after the Blown Away era, so she came back with the Storyteller era + her first massive in-the-round arena tour? And then got nominated and lost to *drum roll* Garth Brooks? Or like when, after she lost in 2016, she came back with Cry Pretty + an even *bigger* in-the-round arena tour (that actually spanned the entire eligibility period), and lost to...Garth Brooks? It's not a "light a fire" situation, because she's always had a forest fire under her butt in terms of how hard she works. It, quite literally, has nothing to do with her anymore. It's beyond her power, and it's nothing that will change anytime soon. Especially if Garth Brooks continues to campaign his way through the industry. She's now had multiple killer album/tour eras that've resulted in zero noms/EOTY losses. This is an issue that is very much not within her power.

So.. I just looked at Garth's website to find he played 12 shows in 9 cities in 2019
oh and a couple dive bars too.
This is honestly insulting to both Carrie and Eric. What a joke.

Maybe Eric and Carrie split the votes so Garth won by default. Yeah I’m going to console myself with that logic. 😀

My logic Garth Brooks has blackmail on CMA voters. This is based on no reality but I am gonna run with it.

12 shows?? 12 shows and he wins Entertainer over 2 powerhouse artists who toured their heads off. CMA’s just lost a lot of credibility and a lot of fans

CMA’s just lost a lot of credibility and a lot of fans I'm sure the CMAs have some non-logical, non-evident, made-up reason to justify their decision - and I am sure that Garth truly believes he deserved the award tonight when really he was behind 3 of the 5 artists nominated.

If his entire career was based on his merits alone as an artist then he wouldn't be here today... I am sure of that. He is a sub-par vocalist with mediocre music and is saved by smoke, mirrors, and theatrics in his live show... not an artist that inspires me, that's for sure.

Trisha Yearwood sitting next to Garth all night not performing despite the female empowerment theme + that she just released her first new album of material in over a decade and had a near top 20 hit with its lead single, while Garth gets to perform and wins the highest honor of the night. Such irony.

And let's be real, I am sure there are plenty more of new comer artists who are more inspired by Carrie (and Eric) than they are by Garth.. Disgusting he wouldn't even acknowledge his other nominees in the category.

Yeah I genuinely hope she stops hosting this thing. Was just wondering the same. If I was her I’d be gone in a HEARTBEAT and I hope she doesn’t come back. Let Kelsea Ballerini or Garth host it. Or just cancel the CMA’s in general since they’re so useless

Ok do we have to get political here? I am upset about Carrie Underwood getting snubbed as everyone else here, but does it really matter if that person is a Republican?
