Image Courtesy AMA/ABC/Dick ClarkLuke Bryan won the ACM Entertainer of the Year trophy in 2013, so why is he calling his nomination in that category for this year’s show “mind-boggling”? It’s because he up for that trophy against one of his all-time heroes — Garth Brooks.
Luke says, “I can honestly say I never thought I’d be in a category with Garth Brooks,” Luke says. “I mean, you almost want to frame it. So, it’s pretty cool. I just always feel blessed in these moments, and I just can’t believe I’m in this situation to where these people know who I am, you know?”
Fan voting in the Entertainer of the Year category is now open at VoteACM.com. Luke is set to perform on the 50th Annual ACM Awards Sunday, April 19 at 8 p.m. ET on CBS. He’s also co-hosting the show once again with pal Blake Shelton.
