CMA Awards 2025: Full winners list — Langley and Wilson lead the night
Ella Langley and Lainey Wilson emerged as the top winners at the 59th annual CMA Awards in Nashville on Wednesday night.
Wilson, who also hosted the ceremony, won the coveted Entertainer of the Year award as well as Album of the Year for her fifth studio project, Whirlwind, News.Az reports, citing The Hollywood Reporter.
Langley secured two major honors, taking home both Song of the Year and Single of the Year for her viral hit “You Look Like You Love Me,” recorded with Riley Green.
“I feel like this is a song that just keeps on giving because fans keep on listening to it,” Langley said while accepting the Song of the Year award alongside Green.
Zach Top won for new artist of the year, beating out a stacked list of nominees that also included Shaboozey, Ella Langley, Tucker Wetmore and Stephen Wilson Jr. and accepting the award with a can of Coors in his hand.
After winning entertainer of the year in 2024, Morgan Wallen, who had one of the biggest albums of any genre this year with I’m The Problem, came home empty-handed this year.
