The CMT Awards are happening tonight at 8 p.m. on CBS. Kelsea Ballerini is one of the hosts with Anthony Mackie, but at the last minute she tested positive for COVID-19. She is feeling good and will still host the show, but from home.  Another cool surprise is that Kane Brown will return to co-host. He and Ballerini hosted the show last year and Brown is the most nominated artist this year with 4, including Male Video and Video of the Year for One Mississippi.

The #CMTAwards have a new co-host — @kanebrown.

Brown will join @AnthonyMackie and @KelseaBallerini, who reveals she has tested positive for COVID and will host the show remotely, tonight at 8/7c on @CBS. pic.twitter.com/LpoyFfAT7e
