Cowboy Carter , Beyonce's latest album, was a country smash, and has stormed the nominations list for the upcoming awards show in Nashville. Although the guest list has not yet been shared, Beyonce will hopefully make an appearance as it is the first awards show for the album, and she is likely to be joined by Blue, who has become a star in her own right this past year, and perhaps even youngest daughter Rumi.
Rumi, six, is a featured guest on the track "Protector," opening the song with the phrase: "Mom, can I hear the lullaby, please?"
She became the youngest woman to ever chart on the Billboard 100 when it was released, surpassing older sister Blue who was seven when she appeared on Beyoncé's song "Brown Skin Girl" in 2019.
Blue, 12, has become a permanent fixture at her parents' side in recent years, standing alongside dad Jay-Z when he accepted the Dr. Dre Global Impact Award at the 2024 Grammys, and performing alongside mom Beyonce during her Renaissance tour.
Elsewhere at the People's Choice Country Awards, Zach Bryan has 17 nods, followed by Kacey Musgraves (15), Shaboozey (12), Kane Brown and Morgan Wallen (11 each) and Luke Combs (10).
The show also added six new categories this year: female song, male song, group/duo song, cover song, new artist song and storyteller song.
The 2024 People’s Choice Country Awards will air live Thursday, Sept. 26, at 8 p.m. ET/PT across NBC and Peacock from the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville.
It will be hosted by Shania Twain , who is nominated for the Concert Tour of 2024 for her Las Vegas residency.
