On Monday (November 17), the Country Music Association announced new presenters, special guests, and performers who will take part in the 59th Annual CMA Awards on Wednesday (Nov. 19) at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena. Newly announced presenters include Billy Ray Cyrus and girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley, Lady A, Ella Langley, Steve Martin, LeAnn Rimes, Billy Bob Thornton, Gretchen Wilson, Bailey Zimmerman, and more, while Keith Urban and Little Big Town join the stacked roster of performers. The event will be hosted by Lainey Wilson – who is tied with Langley and Megan Moroney for most nominations with six – and other top nominees like Zach Top and Riley Green will also be featured. Lauren Alaina and HaleyyBaylee will cohost backstage coverage on TikTok, while Vince Gill will receive the Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award, and he will also be honored with a tribute performance during the ceremony, which will air live on ABC and stream the next day on Hulu.
