Jelly Roll is all smiles as he struts the red carpet of the 59th Academy of Country Music Awards with his wife, Bunnie XO.
The country star added a bit of color into his all-black ensemble with a fashionable brown leather bomber jacket and accessorized with a rhinestone cross necklace. His beautiful partner in crime also stunned in her floor-length royal blue dress with gold rhinestones scattered throughout.
Four-Time Nominee
The lovebirds have a very exciting night ahead as Jelly Roll is one of the most recognized artists of the evening. Going into the show as a first-time nominee, he is vying for wins in the categories of Male Artist of the Year, Single of the Year (“Need A Favor”), Music Event of the Year (“Save Me” with Lainey Wilson) and Entertainer of the Year.
“Last year I was here, barely. I had no nominations. So it’s really, really cool, man. I think it’s also perspective…it’s my first time being nominated for an ACM ever. So I think it also reminds people of just how relatively new I still am to the scene,” he recently told Country Now.
Jelly Roll To Debut New Song At ACM Awards
In addition to being nominated, Jelly Roll also teased that he will be kicking off a new musical chapter during the ACM Awards when he performs a brand-new song.
Hosted by Reba McEntire, the 59th Academy of Country Music Awards will be held on Thursday, May 16. The show will air live from the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas at 8 p.m. EDT / 7 p.m. CDT / 5 p.m. PDT exclusively on Prime Video on amazon.com/acmawards. For this special occasion, fans do not need a Prime membership to watch, as everyone is invited to the “Party of the Year.”
For those still hoping to attend the highly-anticipated night and celebrate their favorite country stars, a limited number of tickets are still available for purchase.
