Dierks Bentley Lets It All Hang Out In New ACM Awards Promo

Come on now, Dierks! You’re supposed to imagine the audience in their underwear, not the other way around!

In the most recent promos for the 51st Annual Academy of Country Music Awards, Dierks Bentley isn’t hiding anything about his hosting duties. Set in the scene of his reoccurring nightmare, Bentley is live on the stage with nothing more than a pixelated censor box to cover up, well, you get the picture.

The wild antic receives some rather interesting reactions from the country crowd. Wynonna Judd cannot hide her wowed expression while Kenny Chesney sneaks Bentley a cheeky grin among others. The best familiar face? Jason Aldean’s emotionless mug, looking easily unamused at the whole ordeal.

Bentley has reason to be nervous in these advertisements though. This is the first time for the country singer to co-host the ACM Awards with veteran Luke Bryan, who’s had a little bit of practice in the area. Meanwhile, Bentley is also in the midst of a tour and promoting his latest single, “Somewhere on a Beach,” which could explain why he is imagining himself in less clothes than normal.

Bentley, hopefully clothed and in a suit, and Bryan will co-host the 51st ACM Awards live from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on Sunday, April 3. The award show will air on CBS at 8 p.m. ET.

Keep having this reoccurring nightmare... #acmawards
