This is Texas, and the 2024 CMT Music Awards has star power in spades.

Country music's biggest artists hit the red carpet April 7 at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas, ready for the award ceremony hosted by Kelsea Ballerini.

Turning the event into a date night with Chase Stokes, Kelsea rocked a red lacy gown with a strappy neckline. And this won't be the first rodeo for Ballerini—who is also a three-time nominee tonight—as the "Penthouse" singer has hosted three times before.
