Congrats to The 2014 CMA Nominees
The CMA Award nominations were announced yesterday and Miranda Lambert lead the nominees with a total of nine, including Entertainer of the Year, Best Female Vocalist, and Album of the Year for "Platinum."
Dierks Bentley picked up five nominations, while Keith Urban and Eric Church each had four.
Miranda's up against Luke Bryan, Keith Urban, Blake Shelton, and George Strait for Entertainer of the Year. That'll be a tough category to judge again this year!
Jason Aldean was snubbed, according to some.
"The 48th Annual CMA Awards" will air November 5th on ABC. Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley are back hosting for the seventh year in a row.
