2015 ACM Nominations

The ACM nominations are out with some familiar names and major surprises! Miranda Lambert leads the pack with 8 nominations including Entertainer of the Year and her ninth consecutive nod for Female Vocalist of the Year. Directly behind Miranda is Dierks Bentlely with seven noninations.

A huge surprise/snub comes from the Entertainer of the Year category which is noticably missing fan favorite and previous winner Blake Shelton. On the other hand, Garth Brooks in nominated in that category which is a good surprise!

Buddies Blake Shelton and Luke Bryan will reprise their role as hosts of the award show airing live from AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on April 19 at 8 PM ET on CBS.
