Kane Brown is enjoying a big night out in Frisco, Texas at the 59th Academy of Country Music Awards where he’s nominated for the evening’s top honor of ACM Entertainer of the Year.
His pregnant wife, Katelyn, and daughters, Kingsley and Kodi, are cheering him on from home, and even took it upon themselves to craft a homemade sign, sharing love and encouragement for their beloved father. With markers, paint, and a whole lot of creativity, they poured their hearts into every stroke, creating a masterpiece that proudly declared their unwavering support for Brown.
The country superstar was touched by their gesture and shared a sweet photo of his girls and their homemade sign that read, “Go daddy we love you” on social media. He also sent his biggest fans a message, writing “I miss you guys” within the text on the sweet snapshot.
Katelyn typically travels with Kane, however, she has been taking less trips as of late as she nears her due date. The couple is expecting their third child, a baby boy, in the coming weeks.
The winner in the Entertainer of the Year category will be announced at the conclusion of the ACM Awards. Just weeks before the show, we caught up with Brown, who admitted he’s “super grateful” to be recognized, however, at times, he doesn’t feel worthy of the nomination or the potential win.
“I’m a person that looks at everything, so when it’s Entertainer of the Year, of course it’s amazing to be up there, but I’m the type of person that if I won, I feel like I don’t deserve it right now,” he humbly states. “I mean Luke Combs and Morgan Wallen are killing it. Then I saw Chris Stapleton on the list. Chris has such a good voice and I didn’t realize he was playing stadiums too.”
In addition to his Entertainer of the Year nomination, Brown was also on hand to perform. He delivered a surprise rendition of “Georgia On My Mind,” which was originally made famous by Ray Charles.
Hosted by Reba McEntire, the 59th Academy of Country Music Awards aired exclusively on Prime Video on Thursday, May 16 live from the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas at 8 p.m. EDT / 7 p.m. CDT / 5 p.m. PDT.
