Reba McEntire to Host 54th Academy of Country Music Awards

She’s back! Reba McEntire will host the 54th Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas.

News of Reba’s return broke during the 2019 GRAMMY Awards, Feb. 10, when a commercial for the ACMs aired during the live broadcast.

“I’m on my way to Vegas to host the Academy of Country Music Awards,” said the famous redhead as she walked down an abandoned desert highway. As the camera panned out, the “Fancy” singer was seen strolling on a moving sidewalk. “You didn’t really think I was walking, did ya?” she asked.

The gig marks her 16th time hosting the ACM Awards, picking up the job in 2018 after a six year hiatus.

The 54th Annual ACM Awards will broadcast live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Sunday, April 7, 2019 at 8 p.m. ET/delayed PT on CBS.
