The 46th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards will be broadcast live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas at 7 p.m. Sunday, on the CBS Television Network. Reba McEntire, who hails from Chockie, and Blake Shelton, an Ada native and Tishomingo resident, will co-host the show.
(Fans of Oklahoma cowboys Cord and Jet McCoy should note that “The Amazing Race: Unfinished Business” will not air tonight because of the ACM Awards. The reality show will return April 10.)
Tishomingo resident Miranda Lambert, Shelton’s fiancée, has seven Academy of Country Music Award nominations, the most of any solo artist. She and Norman resident Toby Keith are nominated along with Jason Aldean, Brad Paisley, Taylor Swift and Keith Urban for the top award, the fan-voted entertainer of the year title.
Voting for entertainer of the year continues and closes during third hour of Sunday’s live broadcast. To vote, go to www.voteACM.com.
Along with all five entertainer nominees, former Tulsan Ronnie Dunn, Underwood, Reba, Shelton, Alabama, Dierks Bentley, Sara Evans, Martina McBride and Zac Brown Band with James Taylor have been announced as performers for Sunday’s show.
Shelton, Reba and Checotah native Carrie Underwood also will contend for ACM Awards.
