Megan Moroney's Absence at ACM Awards: Maid of Honor Duties Take Priority
Megan Moroney, the leading nominee at the Academy of Country Music Awards, will not be attending the event in Las Vegas due to her commitment as the maid of honor at her best friend Natalie's wedding. Moroney's song "Wonder" from 2021 was inspired by Natalie's relationship, where Moroney advised her friend to wait for someone who treats her with respect and love. Despite missing the awards ceremony, Moroney expressed her gratitude for the nominations and shared her excitement for her friends who will be attending the event.
Moroney's absence at the ACM Awards comes as she is nominated for nine awards, including entertainer of the year, female artist of the year, and artist-songwriter of the year. Following her duties as the maid of honor, Moroney will embark on her Cloud 9 arena headlining tour, named after her successful album that debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. The tour will commence in Columbus, Ohio, on May 29, showcasing Moroney's chart-topping hits like "Beautiful Things" and "6 Months Later."
Fans can catch the ACM Awards live stream on Amazon's Prime Video at 8 p.m. ET. Despite Moroney's absence, her presence will be felt through her music and the impact she has made in the country music industry.
