Last year,\u00a0Reba\u00a0<\/a>hosted the Academy of Country Music Awards, and she must\u2019ve done an excellent job. Because the ACM has asked her back to host again this year. This marks Reba\u2019s 16th time as host, even though she took a few years off \u2014 from 2013 to 2017 \u2014 when Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton and Dierks Bentley filled her shoes. The first time Reba hosted was way back in the 80s, with Mac Davis and John Schneider.<\/p>\n

Over the years, Reba has hosted the show on her own, or with a revolving door of country co-hosts: Hank Williams, Jr., Randy Owen, George Strait, Alan Jackson and Blake Shelton.<\/p>\n

When she was preparing for last year\u2019s show, she was asked about what the ACM Awards meant to her. \u201cIt means family, friends, coming together and celebrating what everyone has done the year before. It\u2019s become sort of a family reunion for me because all of my buddies are there,\u201d she\u2019d said. \u201cWe\u2019re in competition, but we have fun, and we\u2019re always rooting for each other.<\/p>\n

As part of the hosting duties, Reba will be on CBS THIS MORNING on February 20 to announce some of the first nominees. The\u00a054th Academy of Country Music Awards<\/em>\u00a0will broadcast live from Las Vegas on CBS on April 7.<\/p>\n
