Reba McEntire is back as the host of the 2020 CMA Awards and this time she’ll be joined by Darius Rucker!
This is the first time Darius will host but Reba’s fifth. Last year, Reba shared the stage with fellow female country legends Carrie Underwood and Dolly Parton.
I’m thrilled to be back hosting the #CMAawards and even more thrilled that I get to share the stage with @dariusrucker. We’re looking forward to a night of celebrating great Country music and hope you’ll tune in and watch LIVE Wednesday, November 11th on @ABCNetwork! pic.twitter.com/BcrBUMOIC6

Darius said in a press release, “I look forward to the CMA Awards every year because of the incredible performances and the opportunity to celebrate the year in Country Music. To be invited to host this year’s awards alongside Reba — are you kidding me?! — it is an absolute honor. Even though this year will look a little different than normal, I know that we’re all eager for a night of musical celebration, and this year’s show definitely won’t disappoint.”
The co-hosts appeared on The Today Show Oct. 5th to reveal the big news.
