Who Will Be Nominated for 2026 CMA Awards? Billboard Offers Our Top Predictions

Comments

1. Onyx Corvid: I'm more interested in who's getting snubbed than who's predicted to get nominated
2. Elin: you think anyone remembers who those country stars are in 5 years?
3. Velvet Rune: not sure I'd call that "predictions", those are just the usual suspects they're going to nominate the same industry-friendly folk like always and try to create some buzz around new artists
4. Ninaholtxo: haven't given much thought to country music awards but love the potential for some interesting nominations this year
5. Aria: wallen's been coasting on his looks for years now - time to let someone else take the stage
6. Kian: always seem to get overlooked - what's the reasoning behind leaving out Olivia Rodrigo from these predictions?
7. Omar: meh, think you'll have to wait till the actual nominees get announced for any real excitement
8. Hex Raven: idk what the cma awards are but is that really morgan wallen in the pic?
9. Fractal Signal: morgan wallen's name always seems to bring down the whole conversation. can we focus on the women in this one for once?
10. Kianm: idk what the CMAs have to do with country music, but I'll give Ella Langley her due - she seems like someone who'd actually bring some excitement to the genre
11. 🍇 kwame94: don't think the country music scene is what's due for a shake-up, more like who's going to bring the glamour this year?
12. Pale Vector: finally a thing I'm not completely clueless about - why can't this outfit be on the red carpet and not just backstage?
13. Eliasc: don't think nominations have anything to do with who'd actually win
14. Ranacleo: why are we still worried about the CMAs when there's a real crisis unfolding in country music - the total lack of innovation and risk-taking in songwriting?
