âMiranda, Carrie⊠I told Lauren Alaina tonight, âYou sang you behind off tonight.â She sounded amazing. Youâve got her and Kelseaâsome new ones coming upâMaren, who I think is phenomenal, too. I definitely think thereâs some that should be represented in there. Down the road if they happen to win one, Iâll be the first one up congratulating them because itâs probably a little overdue,â Jason said.
The âYou Make It Easyâ singer claimed his third-straight Entertainer nod in 2018, just a few short months after witnessing the first moments of the massacre at Route 91 Harvest festival from stage.
