Kelsea Ballerini on Hosting, Performing at CMT Music Awards: ‘It’s Full-Circle’
The CMT Music Awards will air Sunday, April 7 on CBS and will stream live and on-demand on Paramount+.
When the CMT Music Awards return to the Moody Center in Austin, Texas, for a second run in the venue on Sunday (April 7), five-time Billboard Country Airplay chart-topper Kelsea Ballerini will host the evening, guiding viewers through the performance-packed, awards-filled event.
