Tim McGraw and Faith Hill to Present Biggest CMA Award

Posted: November 11th, 2009 at 1:48 pm  |  By: Alison Bonaguro  

Tim McGraw and Faith HillEveryone has been so focused on who the CMA entertainer of the year award will go to tonight (Nov. 11), but what about who it's coming from? It's an important job to bestow that award on a fellow artist. And I can't think of a better couple than Tim McGraw and Faith Hill. McGraw himself knows a thing or two about being an EOTY. He won it back in 2001, along with countless other CMA Awards. And while Hill has never been named EOTY by the CMA, she has been honored enough times to deserve the right to stand up there with McGraw and hand it to the lucky winner. Now the only question is, who? Kenny Chesney? Brad Paisley? Keith Urban? Taylor Swift? Or George Strait? We won't know until just before 11 p.m. ET/PT. But feel free to leave you best guess here.

    I want Taylor to win. Just a personal opinion, don’t hate me for it. I really have no idea who it will go to though. All of the nominees have a really good chance.

    Must be George Strait or Kenny Chesney. Lord knows George got these two losers in the limelight and if Kenny winsa it must be to rubbbbb it in.

    Too bad John Denver had to endure such low-class behavior from Rich.

    BRAD DESERVES IT! this was only taylor’s first tour any i think they should wait to give her entertainer until they see how she progresses and gets better as time goes on. if she gets it this year and continues to improve her tour every year, nobody will get it for the next ten years. Brad should get it.. or keith. but brad deserves it!

    i’m a HUGE kenny chesney fan but i must say that he really has tough competition with taylor this year - they both have had a fabulous year - selling out concerts and putting on one hell of a show - and both get nothing but great reviews. so on that note i’m gonna say i won’t be surprised if she does win but will be sort of disappointed but happy for her. now if anyone else besides them two wins - i’m gonna be shocked as hell - the award is entertainer of the year and it should go to someone who is just that - i do respect and like brad, keith and of course love george strait (who doesn’t) but you know taking everything into consideration it should go to either #1: kenny chesney or taylor swift. thats just my opinion.

    IT’S BRAD’S TURN !!! ALL THE WAY FOR BRAD. TAYLOR NEEDS TO DO THE TIME, ITS TOO SOON FOR HER

  • Robin says:

    Posted: November 11th, 2009 at 4:01 pm  

    Brad should win! I said that last year and stick by it this year. He has the best tour in country music right now - and he manages not to flip his hair.

    Must be Carrie Underwood!!! I do not see her name anywhere in this blog. except yours. Good Luck King George!

    I’ve a question: I thought last year Carrie won the EOTY, but I saw a lot of sites claiming, that Kenny Chesney won. Can somebody tell me who won last year?

  • Christine says:

    Posted: November 11th, 2009 at 5:09 pm  

    I would like Keith to win. But I think they are all good singers. But I have a feeling it is Taylor because they picked Tim & Faith to give the award out & they are friends with her. That’s my opinion, but could be wrong.

  • Country Fan says:

    Posted: November 11th, 2009 at 5:11 pm  

    I really think the award should go to Keith. I don’t think Taylor has earned it yet. If Keith doesn’t win it, then Brad or Kenny.

  • timcun says:

    Kenny won the CMA EOTY award and Carrie won the ACM EOTY award last year.

    Does anyone but me have a problem posting on these blogs? More than half the time my messages won’t take. If I try to post the message again I get the message “Duplicate comment detected; it looks as though you’ve already said that!”

    ???????????

    Posted: November 11th, 2009 at 5:37 pm  

    I get that message sometimes too timcun

    I love Tim & Faith, in fact, I love more country artists than not, so any time I get to see them, I appreciate it.
    I don’t dislike Taylor, but I don’t think she rates the EOTY award quite yet. I’m not playing favorites otherwise. I’ll be happy for whomever wins.

  • Redmaz says:

    Taylor Swift will win EOTY, and this blogsite with 100’s of mainstreamers will go berserk.

    to timcun, the same thing has been happening to my posts to. seems like i can only post 1x a day. very strange.

    Tim & Faith are the perfect people to give that award. They are so classy. Can’t wait to see it!!!! or I should say them… LOL

  • trent west says:

    Posted: November 11th, 2009 at 9:08 pm  

    Yeah, Faith is real classy, like when she had her little fit when she thought she was off camera. Please, you are NOT a good actor and you are not all that good talent wise either. But it’s country, like hip hop, talent isn’t always necessary.

  • Pat Geiger says:

    Posted: November 11th, 2009 at 9:46 pm  

    THE SAME GOES FOR TRENT WEST. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE DWEEBS?

  • Tracy Neumann says:

    Kenny needs to win EOTY! Taylor needs to grow up still

  • flower says:

    AWSOME GREAT JOB TAYLOR WAY TO SWEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Joanne says:

    Posted: November 12th, 2009 at 12:18 am  

    Congrats Taylor, she does entertain us a lot, especially her SNL night, it was great. But I am the biggest Brad Paisley fan in the world … I’m still very proud that she got the award especially at her young age… way to go Taylor. But I still love Brad and his talents!!:))

  • myra robinson says:

    Faith and Tim were perfect to give out the award. he was on a radio station and they asked which award he and faith were giving out and he said he could not say,he didnt know who was getting it but he knew which one it was. and by the way,Faith has explained what happened a million times about the what fiasco. she was kidding around.

  • funny says:

    Hey Jane, Faith and Tim are hardly has beens. If so Id rather listen to their old stuff then the new they are selling.
    & trent west: Pathetic with such old stories!

  • Cowboy Hat says:

    Myra: Country music fans love fiasco’s! They seem to thrive on it.

    I think it’s great that Tim McGraw and Faith Hill presented the biggest award. Taylor Swift has had an amazing year. I think she desereved this big award.

    “Taylor Swift will win EOTY, and this blogsite with 100’s of mainstreamers will go berserk”

    As soon as I saw the presenters for this award, it was clear who the winner would be and how much of this is maniplulated in advance. All the nutty bloggers in the world will not change the politics in Nashville.

    I was absolutely right. Imagine that?
