Country Music Hall of Famer Dolly Parton will host the 57th ACM Awards live from Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium March 7 on Amazon Prime Video. Co-hosts are to be announced at a later date; nominees will be announced next week. The two-hour show will air without commercial interruption and is the first time a major awards event will be available exclusively via streaming. “Dolly is the most iconic and multitalented artist of all time, and we are proud that she is a friend and supporter of the Academy, a previous host and a 13-time [ACM winner],” says Academy CEO Damon Whiteside. Adds Amazon Studios head Jennifer Salke, “We are thrilled to showcase the power of Amazon in creating these impactful global entertainment moments with an icon like Dolly as host.” Parton says, “Watch for us, because we’re going to have some fun.” Yesterday, Parton was named a nominee for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Class of 2022.
