Ella Langley Eyes CMA History Amidst Tough Competition
9 Sep
Summary
- Ella Langley poised for multiple CMA Awards nominations.
- Historic potential for three solo women nominated in Entertainer of the Year.
- CMA Awards expand to stream live on Disney+ starting November 18.
The 60th annual CMA Awards nominations are set to be announced, with Ella Langley widely expected to lead the field, possibly earning her first Entertainer of the Year nomination. This year's nominations hold the potential for historical achievements, particularly concerning female artists.
If Langley, reigning champion Lainey Wilson, and Megan Moroney all receive nominations, it would mark the first instance in the awards' 60-year history of three solo women being nominated in the same category. This follows a trend where women are increasingly recognized, with previous years seeing multiple female nominees but not three solo artists in contention.
Several categories are anticipated to be highly competitive, including New Artist of the Year and the Male and Female Vocalist awards. The eligibility period for nominations spanned from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026. The awards ceremony will be broadcast on ABC and will stream live on Disney+ starting November 18, following a new deal with the network.
