Lainey Wilson did a great job as co-host alongside Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning. She might have had the best line of the night, too. Luke and Peyton were saying how cool it was that Brooks &amp; Dunn first teamed up in 1990. And Lainey said, &#8220;Umm, I was born in 1992.&#8221;<\/p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"insta-iframe\" src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DCnYBktt_Ta\/embed\/captioned\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display:inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height:0;\"  class=\"mce_SELRES_start\"><\/span><\/iframe>\n<p>2. The George Strait tribute was special. Lainey, Miranda Lambert, Parker McCollum, Jamey Johnson, and Chris Stapleton all sang some of George&#8217;s biggest songs. And, then George was given the CMA Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award.<\/p>\n<div class=\"video-shortcode embed-container\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"610\" height=\"355\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gNxwpckGH2Y\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>3. Although Chris Stapleton won the most awards, Luke Combs has the best voice of them all. His performance and energy on &#8220;Ain&#8217;t No Love in Oklahoma&#8221; was unmatched all night.<\/p>\n<div class=\"video-shortcode embed-container\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"610\" height=\"355\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ChixCKgzCEk\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>4. Here are some more awesome performances: Ella Langley and Riley Green coming out of the crowd to sing &#8220;You Look Like You Love Me&#8221; was pretty cool . . . Kacey Musgraves sounded great singing &#8220;The Architect&#8221; . . . and Thomas Rhett and Teddy Swims were fantastic together.<\/p>\n<div class=\"video-shortcode embed-container\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"610\" height=\"355\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/l8hTM5-3Voc\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<div class=\"video-shortcode embed-container\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"610\" height=\"355\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_dgV4UKv0rY\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<div class=\"video-shortcode embed-container\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"610\" height=\"355\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4j1_otgKStM\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The CMAs were held last night and Morgan Wallen won Entertainer of the Year.","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":28335,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_img_display":"Yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[3337],"tags":[8658,3568,706,3388,8774,4491,3512,3796,586,5520,40,357,3097,3845,4584,4493,589,3547,9126,32,8249],"class_list":["post-30432","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-country-music-news","tag-aint-no-love-in-oklahoma","tag-brooks-and-dunn","tag-chris-stapleton","tag-cma-awards","tag-ella-langley","tag-entertainer-of-the-year","tag-george-strait","tag-jamey-johnson","tag-kacey-musgraves","tag-lainey-wilson","tag-luke-bryan","tag-luke-combs","tag-miranda-lambert","tag-morgan-wallen","tag-parker-mccollum","tag-peyton-manning","tag-post-malone","tag-riley-green","tag-teddy-swims","tag-thomas-rhett","tag-white-horse"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-15 15:26:43","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"react_link":"https:\/\/chok.com\/blogs\/country-music-news\/2024\/11\/morgan-wallen-wins-big-at-cma-awards\/","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30432","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30432"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30432\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30457,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30432\/revisions\/30457"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28335"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30432"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30432"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/chokfm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30432"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
