Another year, another goose egg for Morgan Wallen at the ACM Awards (not that he cares).
Coming into the ACMs this year, one of the biggest names in all of country music only received three nominations: Entertainer of the Year, Album of the Year for his I’m The Problem record, and Artist-Songwriter of the Year. Though he’s certainly deserving to win any of those… he came away from the night with nothing.
This was actually Morgan’s fourth consecutive nomination for the ACM Entertainer of the Year. Fun fact? He’s never won it. It was also his third nomination for Album of the Year, and he’s only ever won that one for his 2021 project Dangerous: The Double Album. Unsurprisingly, Wallen hasn’t attend the awards show since 2023. And why would he? He’s consistently at the top of country and all-genre charts, his albums connect with fans all across the world, and he sells out stadiums all across the country, every single year. Somehow, that never translated into any – or I suppose it would be more appropriate to say many – awards.
It’s pretty head-scratching to be fair. He’s one of the biggest artists in all of music, selling out multiple nights in a row at the biggest football stadium in America, but based on his awards show record, you’d never know it.
After Morgan Wallen went 0 for 3 at the 2026 ACM Awards (Ella Langley won Artist-Songwriter of the Year, Parker McCollum won Album of the Year, and Entertainer of the Year went to Cody Johnson), his fans took to social media to once again defend their favorite artist for being snubbed:
Award shows are fun but they’re a joke. In no universe is Parker McCollum’s album better than Morgan Wallen’s. LOL #acmawards

@ACMawards seriously? @Zachtopmusic was robbed…. 🙄 and then entertainer of the year? You have got to be kidding, Cody is great but Morgan Wallen crushed the stadiums all year, sell out after sell out. 🤦♂️

Luke Combs and Morgan Wallen absolutely robbed at the #ACMawards this year. They both had sold out stadium shows this week so I guess they are the real winners though

Like I mentioned earlier, the good news is that Morgan Wallen doesn’t seem to care about the song and dance of award shows.
Need an example? Last year, Wallen skipped out on the award show (like he did this year) and played golf with Tom Brady. So while all of his fans are bothered by his snubs, it doesn’t seem like Morgan himself is losing any sleep over it.
