The 2024 CMT Awards were held at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas, for the second year in a row on Sunday, April 7, hosted by Kelsea Ballerini. This is the first time Ballerini has hosted the show on her own. She has previously co-hosted the fan-voted awards show for two years with Kane Brown in 2021 and 2023 and joined remotely in 2022.

“I couldn’t be more excited to be back for my 4th year,” Ballerini said in a press release. “Hosting an awards show that celebrates the music that the fans love most has been an honor and I know this year will be another unforgettable night." The show is available on CBS and on-demand on Paramount+ with Showtime from 8 pm to 11 pm ET.

Performances of the night will include Cody Johnson, Megan Moroney, Old Dominion, Parker McCollum, Brittney Spencer, Kelsea Ballerini, Bailey Zimmerman, Jelly Roll, Keith Urban, Lainey Wilson, Sam Hunt, Dasha, Jason Aldean and Trisha Yearwood.

The awards show will also feature several cross-genre collaborations. Brooks & Dunn, Lainey Wilson, and Sammy Hagar will perform a tribute to the late Toby Keith. Little Big Town will also hit the stage with Sugarland.

Cody Johnson, Jelly Roll, Kelsea Ballerini, Lainey Wilson and Megan Moroney lead the pack with the most nominations with three nods each. First-time nominees include Hozier, Koe Wetzel, Tyler Childers and Zach Bryan.

When it comes to the looks of the night, there seems to be an even mixture of hotties and horrors on the red carpet.

Take a look below at the female hotties and horrors of the 2024 CMT Awards below:

Hottie: Carly Pearce

The "hummingbird" singer looked both elegant and trendy with this black ensemble. Carly paired her black mesh shirt with a subtly glittering bralette, topped with a jewel-encrusted necklace. Her black trousers wrap the whole outfit together, making it more sophisticated.


Hottie: Trisha Yearwood

The "How Do I Live" singer looked absolutely fabulous in her sparkling black gown! We are loving the sparkles from her sequins in combination with her feathery sleeves. With strappy black heels and her hair in a piecy updo, Trisha looks so good.


Hottie: Ashley McBryde

The "One Night Standards" singer wears her iconic all-black, looking amazing as always. McBryde's intricate knit set hugs her body perfectly as her pant legs flare out, giving her a stunning hourglass shape. We also love how the sleeves are striped down with her skin giving more contrast.


Hottie: Mickey Guyton

The "Better Than You Left Me" singer brought all the glam at this year's CMT Awards. Guyton's rain-drop effect from her crystal-encrusted gown is so entrancing. With a simple halter top and mesh skirt, Guyton's dress is elegant and sexy.


Hottie: Priscilla Block

The "Thick Thighs" singer showed off just that with this body-hugging mesh outfit. Her strappy, sweetheart top connects to her elaborate choker. Meanwhile, Block's mesh pants feature a pretty floral detailing giving such an alluring look.


Hottie: Emma Roberts

The 'American Horror Story' star served absolute elegance at the CMT red carpet. Roberts' cream-colored gown is a perfect fit with all the best ruching and materials. Her corset top with one sleeve down gives a sexy element to her billowing mesh skirt.


Hottie: Kelsea Ballerini

The "I Quit Drinking" singer stunned once again during the 2024 CMT Awards. Ballerini's red gown may match the backdrop, but she stands out above all the others. The ruffles, lace, and mesh are all gorgeous and exciting details on her strappy gown. The electric pleats on her skirt shows off her long legs and she is an absolute siren.


Horror: Kendra Slaubaugh and Krista Slaubaugh of Tigirlily Gold

The "Dig Yourself" singers dug themselves a hole with these sequined disasters. The sisters are adorable but these dresses are just tacky, especially with Kendra's dress. The strapless shape makes her look boxy and the pattern of her dress looks like she bought it at a mall.


Horror: Kimberly Perry

We are so done with the "DONE" singer's dress. The high neckline and padded shoulders make her look stiff and does nothing for her figure. The gem detailing doesn't help in making it look like she's being swallowed by this dress.
