Jimmie Allen Makes History at ACM Awards 2021 Before Brad Paisley Crashes His Performance

Jimmie Allen performs alongside Brad Paisley during the 2021 ACM Awards at the Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, Tenn., on Sunday night (April 18).

The 31-year-old singer’s performance of “Freedom Was A Highway” was crashed by Brad, following Jimmie‘s historic win at the show.

Jimmie became the first Black man to ever win the New Male Artist of the Year.

“I remember watching the ACMs growing up,” he recalled in an interview with People. “I would start on the couch and when the winner won the category, I had to walk up and stand by the TV and give my acceptance speech. This is something I’ve wanted for awhile and it’s pretty cool that it’s here.”

Jimmie added that he never celebrates “anything like this. I’ve been trying to do this music thing for so long, I kind of got addicted to struggle, the grind, so typically once I reach some sort of moment, I’m like, ‘Aiight, cool, what’s next?’ I’m ready to get back to hitting the ground running.”

“This time I’m actually going to celebrate! I had family fly in, some friends fly in, and I’m just going to hang out, have a barbecue.”

Lady A is mixing things up for the 2021 ACM Awards performance!

Instead of performing inside one of the venues for the awards show airing on Sunday (April 18), the country music band decided to take things outside, performing on a waterfront stage at the Bridge Building in Nashville, Tenn.

For their performance, Lady A – consisting of members Hillary Scott, Charles Kelley, and Dave Haywood – performed their latest single “Like a Lady.”

In a recent interview, Lady A, which was formerly known as Lady Antebellum, explained why it took so long for them to change the band’s name.

Lady A was only up for one award this year, Group of the Year. They ended up losing to Old Dominion.
