The announcement was made on ABC’s Dancing With the Stars on Monday (Nov. 16), where Nelly is a semifinalist on season 29 of the hit show.

Jennifer Lopez Accepts Icon Award at the 2020 People’s Choice Awards
She may still be Jenny from the block. But she’s also an icon. Jennifer Lopez received the People’s icon award at the 2020 People’s Choice Awards. Armie Hammer introduced Lopez at the ceremony. “Why can’t a bonafide movie star dominate the music charts?” he said. “Every step she took was the opposite of traditional, and she pursued her dreams full force and never waited on someone else to give her permission,” he continued. “Jennifer leads with compassion and kindness and her joy for life is contagious,” he added. {“nid”:”9484545″,”type”:”post”,”title”:”Justin Bieber Gets 'Lonely' and 'Holy' at the 2020 People's Choice Awards”,”r...

The dancers also wore matching black face masks as the sisters sang the song, the title track from their second studio album. “When you decide you like yourself (holla at me)/ When you decide you need someone (call up on me)/ When you don’t have to think about it/ Love me at the ungodly hour,” Chloe x Halle sang in ethereal harmony during their set, which was a slick black with sharp lines of light. {“nid”:”...

Gabby Barrett, Dan + Shay, Morgan Wallen & More Gain in Sales After CMA Awards
The Country Music Association Awards on Nov. 11 prompted notable immediate sales gains for the songs performed on the show, according to initial reports to Nielsen Music/MRC Data. Collectively, the songs performed on the three-hour show sold 29,000 downloads on Nov. 11 in the U.S. — a gain of 770% compared to the 3,000 they sold on Nov. 10.

8 Can’t-Miss Moments From the 2020 CMA Awards
The CMAs instituted a strict COVID-19 protocol complete with rigorous testing. Even given the latest surge, it was still a surprise that prior to the show’s kick off Lee Brice, Florida Georgia Line’s Tyler Hubbard, fiddle player Jenee Fleenor and the members of Lady A had all pulled out of their performances because they or someone in their family had tested positive. During the show, Rascal Flatts posted that they too were absent because an unspecified band member had tested positive. Hopefully the safeguards the CMAs put in place will mean we’re not hearing about more positive results over the next week or so given the largely unmasked audience. Despite the big-name absences, the show still provided several top-notch appearances that reinforced that most country artists don’t need bells ...
Keith Urban Dedicates ‘God Whispered Your Name’ to Frontline Workers at 2020 CMA Awards
“It’s really a song about not having to go it alone.” That’s Keith Urban talking about his single “God Whispered Your Name” prior to performing the track at the 2020 CMA Awards, underlining its importance in a year where community and connection have never been more important. The entertainer of the year nominee performed the single remotely — as CMAs co-host Reba McEntire put it while introducing Urban, “He’s down under in Australia tonight, but we couldn’t do this show without him.” After introducing “God Whispered Your Name” and dedicating the performance to the sacrifice made by frontline workers around the world in 2020, Urban proceeded to give the single a stripped-down presentation, performing solo with an acoustic guitar and letting his lyrics guide him.

Maren Morris Sparkles With ‘The Bones’ at 2020 CMA Awards
Maren Morris glittered like a star during her performance of “The Bones” at the 2020 CMA Awards on Wednesday (Nov. 11). The singer, sparkling in a sequined deep-cut V-neck gown, began her hit song with the image of a crescent moon behind her, her five backing band members performing from socially distanced spots on stage alongside her. “When the bones are good, the rest don’t matter/ Yeah, the paint could peel, the glass could shatter/ Let it rain ’cause you and I remain the same,” sang the 30-year-old, who had already won two trophies when she took the stage to perform. “When there ain’t a crack in the foundation/ Baby, I know any storm we’re facing/ Will blow right over while we stay put/ The house don’t fall when the bones are ...
Kelsea Ballerini Delivers Intoxicating ‘Hole in the Bottle’ at the 2020 CMA Awards
Kelsea Ballerini made the Music City Center stage her own at the 2020 CMA Awards on Wednesday night (Nov. 11) with a winning performance of “Hole in the Bottle.” Wearing a top hat and Cabaret-reminiscent pantsuit, Ballerini led a barnstorming rendition of the latest hit from her Kelsea set. “All right CMA Awards, let’s go!” she shouted before the song’s bridge guitar solo, one of the most energizing live moments of the three-hour ceremonies. (She also closed with a Shania-homaging “Let’s go girls.”) You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be.
