Beyonce SNUBBED by Country Music Awards! WTH?!?!?

Country music’s biggest night will be without one of the world’s biggest celebrities.

And the world is in shock as a result.

On Monday, September 6, the Country Music Association revealed the full list of nominees for the 58th Annual CMA Awards… with Morgan Wallen leading the pack with seven total nods.

As for Beyonce? She received not a single one.

Not. A. Single. One.

The shut-out is galling and surprising because Beyonce took a critically-acclaimed leap by releasing her first-ever country music album a short time ago.

It debuted atop the charts.

Back in March, the superstar explained the inspiration behind “Cowboy Carter” by saying project was “born out of an experience that I had years ago where I did not feel welcomed.”

She added back then:

“Because of that experience, I did a deeper dive into the history of Country music and studied our rich musical archive.

“It feels good to see how music can unite so many people around the world, while also amplifying the voices of some of the people who have dedicated so much of their lives educating on our musical history.”

It may be safe to say that Beyonce once again does not feel welcome within this genre.

Beyonce’s latest album featured collaborations with country artists from Malone and Shaboozey (who received a pair of nominations today) to one of the genre’s pioneers, Linda Martell.

Following its March 29 release, “Cowboy Carter,” the album climbed number-one on the Billboard 200 and made Beyonce first Black woman to ever top the Hot Country Albums chart.

The arrist also earned top-10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 with the record’s revised cover of Dolly Parton’s “Jolene,” as well as “II Most Wanted” featuring Miley Cyrus.

“Thank you @Beyonce for opening a door for us, starting a conversation, and giving us one of the most innovative country albums of all time!” Shaboozey posted on social media after the nominations were announced.
