Carrie Underwood Didn't Win CMA's Entertainer Of The Year Award & People Are Beyond Disappointed

November 15, 2019 15:13

Carrie Underwood was the star of the CMA Awards 2019. Unfortunately, she didn't get the must-anticipated bonus for it. The country sensation collaborated with Dolly Parton and Reba McEntire as she hosted the ceremony. She also performed All Those Memories with them and floored the audience.

Despite being the best, she had no win! People are enraged and even deem it totally unfair.

The singer wasn't hesitant to admit she fancied winning the Entertainment Of The Year Award. It meant a great deal for her as it was much more than just recognition of her touring success. Carrie told The Boot:

I’m blessed and lucky to be nominated, obviously in a fantastic company.

She added:

I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want it. Sorry, boys!"

Missed the Victory

Carrie Underwood was nominated in three different categories. But, she didn't take any trophy home. She lost Album Of The Year and Female Artist Of The Year awards. The defeat that must've stung the most was Entertainer Of The Year Award. She was the only lady that was made to compete in that category.

The 36-year-old stood against Garth Brooks, Eric Church, Keith Urban, and Chris Stapleton. Most attendees were betting on Carrie's victory but, sadly, Garth won the EOTY award with ease.

She released the Cry Pretty album in 2019 and has been on the tours. In addition to that, she's been managing a fitness brand, raising 2 babies, and penning a new book. Why her awesomeness wasn't rewarded?

Social media users are beyond disappointed

This is such a slap in the face. Not only to Carrie, but to the women of country music in general. So much for celebrating women tonight, but you’re going to continue giving these awards to mediocre men. @CountryMusic congrats on getting it wrong yet again. #CMAawards

That was my thought exactly! Should have been Carrie Underwood not Garth Brooks!

This is the problem with Country Music industry. They will put on a show honoring the women of country but when push comes to shove and the awards are announced they continue to reward the men and overlook the women. I’m beyond disappointed.

They got #EntertainerOfTheYear wrong this year at the #CMAs. Garth hasn’t entertained since the 90s. @carrieunderwood is the real #EOTY @CountryMusic pic.twitter.com/yh8BhrpIaz

Do you agree that Garth's win was a little biased? Or maybe, the jury's decision was just fair regardless of gender. Share this and let us know what you think.
