Lainey Wilson Confesses She Used to Impersonate Miley Cyrus at Kids’ Birthday Parties!
Grab your cowboy hats and boots—it’s time for the 2025 CMA Awards.
The stars were out to celebrate this year’s Country Music Association Awards at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Nov. 19, and it wasn’t just the music taking the center stage—it was the fashion, too.
Host Lainey Wilson will be mixing her country vibes with high fashion when she hits the carpet tonight. The “Heart Like a Truck” singer is on solo hosting duty this year after being joined by Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning for her first gig last year. But the nine-time CMA winner was ready to have the spotlight all to herself.
“I grew up watching the CMA Awards like it was the Super Bowl,” she shared in a Sept. 30 press release, “so to be hosting for a second year is a true honor.”
The 33-year-old added, “I’m humbled that CMA has trusted me with this role, and I can’t wait to love on this genre that has given me so much.”
Lainey is also a six-time nominee at this year’s CMAs, picking up nominations including Entertainer of the Year, Song of the Year and Female Vocalist of the Year.
And it won’t just be Lainey looking lovely on the red carpet as Kelsea Ballerini—who is also nominated for Female Vocalist of the Year—will also undoubtedly up the fashionable anti. The 32-year-old is set to take the CMA stage tonight, debuting her new song “I Sit in Parks” from her recent EP, Mount Pleasant.

Also expected on the red carpet and ready for the ride of their lives this evening are Ella Langley and Megan Moroney, both of whom tied with Lainey for the most nominations tonight, each picking up six noms including Single of the Year, Song of the Year and Female Vocalist of the Year.
The two are also set to perform during the ceremony, with Ella planning to serenade the crowd with her new song “Choosin’ Texas,” while Megan announced she’ll sing her fan-favorite single “6 Months Later.”
Now let that country road take you home and keep scrolling to see the best celebrity fashion from the 2025 CMA Awards red carpet.
