Blake Shelton may be one of the most recognizable names in country music, but don’t expect to see him at the 2023 CMA Awards because he’s not even in Nashville right now.

While the red carpet arrivals were beginning for the awards show, the 47-year-old country singer was spotted arriving to tape an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Wednesday afternoon (November 8) in Hollywood.

Blake is the main guest on tonight’s episode of JKL, which airs right after the CMA Awards on ABC. Country music fans will still get their fix if they stay tuned in after the show!

It’s actually been years since Blake was even nominated for an award at the CMA Award. His last nomination was in 2019, when he won Single of the Year for “God’s Country.” He also appeared at the 2021 show to perform “Come Back as a Country Boy.”

It’s the night of the 2023 CMA Awards and all of the biggest names in country music will be descending on Nashville for the show.

Luke Bryan is teaming up again with football player Peyton Manning to host the show, which is taking place on Wednesday (November 8) at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tenn.

The nominations this year are led by Lainey Wilson, who is one of only four artists in CMA history to ever receive nine or more nominations in a single year.

Jelly Roll, who also has a bunch of nominations, will be on stage twice during the show for two separate performances.

The show airs live on ABC at 8/7c.

Lainey Wilson is leading the pack with her CMA Awards 2023 nominations.

The nominations for the 57th annual Country Music Association Awards were announced on Thursday (September 7), with the 31-year-old performer scoring nine nods in total.

One of those nominations is entertainer of the year, which is notable since Lainey is only on her second major-label album and has largely been an opener on the biggest bills.

Other nominees include Jelly Roll, Luke Combs and Hardy.

Kelsea Ballerini is speaking out after she showed up at the 2022 CMA Awards in the same dress that was worn by another entertainer.

The 29-year-old singer wore the same Balenciaga dress that singer Mackenzie Porter wore on the red carpet and it doesn’t appear that they planned to coordinate their looks.

Kelsea took to her TikTok account the next day and responded to a video about the red carpet moment.
