One of the most prolific country musicians, Eric Church added one more feather to his cap after he took home the biggest award at the 54th edition of CMA Awards. The 43-year-old crooner scooped Entertainer of the Year at the coveted award show beating the likes of country music stalwarts Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, and Keith Urban.

Eric Church was also nominated for the Male Vocalist of the Year at 2020 CMA Awards which he lost to Luke Combs but this did not disappoint his fans at all since Entertainer of the Year is considered a bigger award.

One user, however, felt otherwise and tweeted, “eric church’s cma win was long over due… but @carrieunderwood and @mirandalambert big win was even more overdue!! @CountryMusic when the f**k are you gonna give some credit to your powerful women #CMAawards” Another got disappointed and stated, “What in the world!!!
