Morgan Wallen Skips CMA Awards and Wins Entertainer of the Year After Previously Being Ineligible

Morgan Wallen was a no-show at the 2024 CMA Awards but he still took home Entertainer of the Year, the night’s biggest honor, for the very first time.

Morgan Wallen took home his first CMA Awards Entertainer of the Year win at the 2024 ceremony – but he was a no-show to accept the honor. He was still eligible in artistic categories so collaborators would not be penalized, and received a nomination for Album of the Year, but lost to Chris Stapleton. The Voice alum made his return to the CMA Awards in 2022 and even performed at the show in 2023 before going MIA this year.
