Luke made the announcement on Monday, August 1stwhile guest hosting Live with Kelly and Ryan.<\/p>\n
\u201cBeing a part of such a historical night that honors my peers and Country Music is such a privilege. When I was asked if Peyton Manning was someone I would consider co-hosting with I didn\u2019t hesitate. We have become great friends through the years and what he brings to the table is gonna make it even more of a blast. I know he\u2019s been to the CMA Awards before, but he\u2019s never been with me.\u00a0 Hey Peyton, I hope you\u2019re ready for the night of your life!\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Manning has attended the show in the past.<\/p>\n
\u201cI cannot wait to head to Nashville and take the CMA Awards stage alongside my friend Luke Bryan. I am such a huge fan of Country Music, so to have the chance to stand among so many incredibly talented artists is an absolute honor.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The star-studded event will air live from Nashville on November 9th on ABC.<\/p>\n
This will be Luke\u2019s second consecutive year to host the CMA Awards and Manning\u2019s first.<\/p>\n
