Country music entertainer Reba McEntire already has her 2018 ACM Awards wardrobe figured out! More on the star's plans here...
Country music superstar Reba McEntire will be hosting the 2018 ACM Awards for the fifteenth time on April 15th! Of course, the stylish Oklahoman has more than just her lines to think about— her wardrobe must also be perfect!
“The last time I hosted was with Blake Shelton. I don’t think he changed clothes one time and I gave him a lot of grief about that, but I’ve gotten my clothes ready,” the songstress recently disclosed to ET Online. “I’ve gotten six ready to go, one for the red carpet, and then for the show, and then in case something doesn’t work or malfunctions, you’ve got one, you know, ready to go again.”
Sounds like Reba can give frequent CMA Awards co-host Carrie Underwood a run for her money in the costume department! Take a peek at some of her past fashion moments in the video montage below!
Earlier this week, the Academy of Country Music announced the first group of performers for the upcoming event. Nominees Jason Aldean, Kelsea Ballerini, Dierks Bentley, Luke Bryan, Florida Georgia Line, Miranda Lambert, Maren Morris, and Thomas Rhett are all set to take the big stage. Bebe Rexha will also make her debut at the event, performing the chart-topping collaboration “Meant to Be” with Florida Georgia Line. The awards program will broadcast live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Sunday, April 15, 2018 at 8:00 PM ET/PT via CBS.
“I really enjoy hosting,” McEntire also shared with ET. “It’s very exciting, I love live television. So, to be able to know the ins and outs and who’s doing what and be there for the rehearsals … it’s just fun.”
Additional acts and presenters will be announced in the coming weeks. We’re ready for Reba to unleash a healthy dose of dazzle…
