Months after the controversy over his use of a racial slur, the Country Music Association (CMA) Awards will be limiting country star Morgan Wallen’s eligibility by excluding him from the top prize.
“The Country Music Association’s Board of Directors voted that Wallen will not be eligible for individual artist categories, such as entertainer of the year and male vocalist of the year, according to Catharine McNelly, a CMA spokeswoman,” reported Fox News. “The board decided that Wallen could still be nominated for awards that recognize an artistic work, such as album of the year, song of the year, single of the year, musical event and music video, ‘so as to not limit the opportunity for other credited collaborators.'”
