dolly parton I refuse to take sides in the drama between CMA and me. Beyonce …it seems the singer doesn’t want to admit that he was intentionally excluded from the awards show.
The country legend confessed how Bey has never been nominated for a CMA Award despite having one of the biggest country albums and songs of the year. manifold She didn’t realize until recently that newcomers to the country were excluded.
While Beyhive members were outraged when Beyoncé’s “Cowboy Carter” was left off the nomination list, Dolly speculated that the lack of a winner was due to the abundance of talent in country music today, and that it was not a reflection of Beyoncé’s abilities.
She said, “There are so many great country artists, I think the country music community probably thought, ‘We can’t leave out an artist who’s dedicated their whole life to country music.'”

Dolly defends “Cowboy Carter” as a “great album” that Beyoncé should be proud of… but she’s not convinced Beyoncé was “intentionally” left out. Remember, Beyoncé remade her country hit “Jolene” for her new album with Dolly’s permission.
In Dolly’s view… many in the country industry have welcomed Beyoncé and her passion project. But Dolly thinks the voters who nominated this year’s Artist of the Year group wanted to reward a regular artist in the genre, not just a “special album.”
Dolly Bay may not have taken into account the complicated history the CMA has with the company.

Beyoncé appeared on stage at the 2016 awards show with The Chicks and performed “Daddy Lessons,” which was met with thunderous boos.
Waiting for permission to load Instagram media.
After releasing “Cowboy Carter,” Bay hinted that the unpleasant experience inspired her to create a full-country album, which went on to break several records on the country charts.
So it’s no exaggeration to say that there’s more strife between Beyoncé and the CMA Awards than in her home state of Texas!!!
