Lainey is okay but Kelsea is far better too me.

I hate to even type this... but I hope they don't blacklist her on radio for taking a stand... this could go very badly potentially. š®āšØ I love everything she is standing for though. š Look how bad it hurt Marenā¦.I understand wanting to support what you believe but is it worth risking your career over it?

Oh no supporting human rights will open the doors for more people to respect her. Just an FYI, says more about the discriminatory and homophobic views of the country listener community more than anything.

The show was a little average. Most of the collaborations didnāt seem to work to me.

There were some great performances tonight tbh. Havenāt been hugely on the Jelly Roll train but he really stood out today and heās kinda a star. Proud of Kelsea for consistently speaking tf up and not loosing her voice in a world that prefers group thinking rather than individuality. That is something that makes her bigger than just the Country format IMO. Love that CoJo is still getting his flowers, he worked hard for it. Honestly, probably the best Hate My Heart performance from Carrie Iāve seen IMO. Crowd was totally into it and I hope they continue to push it, as long as they have songs like OOTT or better in the wings, idc that they didnāt switch singles. Tyler Hubbard surprised me as I liked his past two singles but he kinda has been āthereā for me. Something about that performance really showed me he can defiantly stand on his own and does have this little edge (performance wise and his overall look) that I dig. Lainey and Carly both did great in both performances but I canāt front, Iām kinda burnt on both songs atp. Darius Rucker is still one of my favorite country artists and have loved him since Hootie, this performance was no exception. Love She Talks to Angels and Black Crowes as well. Kane and Katelyn had a great performance and win as well, big hit for them. Interested in seeing what Katelyn does with her music career after this.

I didn't watch the show, but I have seen clips of Kelsea's speech about the shooting victims, as well as her performance. KUDOS to her! I've never been a fan of hers, but she has made me one. I hate to even type this... but I hope they don't blacklist her on radio for taking a stand... this could go very badly potentially. š®āšØ I love everything she is standing for though. š Look how bad it hurt Marenā¦.I understand wanting to support what you believe but is it worth risking your career over it? Yes, human lives are worth it. We are talking about protecting kids' lives, as well as protecting the ability of people to live their truth.

Reading the comments on social media surrounding Kelseaās performance honestly makes me embarrassed to be part of the country music community, because shocker ā the bigotry, hatred, and out right stupidity is rampant. I read numerous comments saying that it was offensive for her to perform with drag queens because the shooter was trans?!?!?!
Gosh.. country music fans truly want to stay in the age of the confederacy, and itās so exhausting that anyone with proper values and morals comes out to take a stand they will probably see their career suffer - yet white trash like Jason Aldean are revered. Make it make sense.

In comparison to Maren Morris who is arguably the most outspoken female artist in country music right now, the "backlash" has been very minimal imo.

Never thought I'd see the day where Carrie Underwood went empty handed at a CMT award show. That day was bound to come. I would be hurt if she lost with a better video

I do have to wonder about the final day of voting switching to Facebook to spam the comment section for votes might have been a cause of Carrie not winning. Usually they have voting on Twitter if Iām not mistaken.

Usually they have voting on Twitter if Iām not mistaken. Twitter is where she performs the strongest for anything fan-voted, so Iām sure it didnāt help. I wonder if they avoided Twitter because of all the controversy? The whole hashtag in the Facebook comments system was silly, there are thousands of votes that surely didnāt get counted because people donāt know what theyāre doing. Why they couldnāt simplify it to the use of a button like the voting was up until the show? Who knows? I love Kaneās duet with his wife, and heās been Carrieās biggest competition for a few years now at the CMTs, it was bound to happen!

I've liked Kelsea for a while, but my respect level for her went way up last night. Kudos to her
