Tenille Townes leads the way this year with 7 nominations!! She is up for Entertainer Of The Year, Fan Choice, Album and Single of The Year, Video and Songwriter. If she doesn’t win atleast one of those I think she is going flip a table at the award show on Sept 11.
You guys! This is pretty wild! I’m staring at this @ccmaofficial nominations list and thinking about how this girl who didn’t care, singing songs in her room as a kid, would be losing her mind to know this is all real right now. Can’t wait to see everybody in Calgary at the show! pic.twitter.com/yXBxptCBFU
