For a record 17th time, Reba McEntire will host the Academy of Country Music Awards, taking place May 16 in Frisco, Texas.
McEntire, 69, has won 16 ACM Awards of her own and was named ACM Entertainer of the Year in 1994. Not only will she host the 59th ACMs, but she will also take the stage to perform new music.
This year, Kane Brown, Luke Combs, Jelly Roll, Cody Johnson, Chris Stapleton, Morgan Wallen and Lainey Wilson are the Entertainer of the Year nominees, with Wallen earning the most ACM nominations of any artist this year with six. That includes a nomination for Male Artist of the Year and an Album of the Year nod for One Thing at a Time.
Though Wallen is in position to take home multiple awards this year, the ceremony comes amid legal trouble for the artist. He was arrested on April 7 and charged with three felony counts of reckless endangerment after throwing a chair off the roof of a Nashville bar.

"I didn't feel right publicly checking in until I made amends with some folks," he wrote via X when he broke his silence on the issue last week. "I've touched base with Nashville law enforcement, my family, and the good people at Chief's. I'm not proud of my behavior, and I accept responsibility."
In addition to Wallen, Jelly Roll is up for four awards, including Single of the Year for his song "Need a Favor."
