When host Reba McEntire opened the 2025 ACM Awards on Thursday (May 8), she walked onstage in a smart little Western getup featuring a black jacket over a white button-up shirt. Later in the show, Zach Top stepped out to perform his song "Use Me ," and he, too, was wearing a smart little getup featuring a black jacket and a white button-up shirt.

Last year, McEntire premiered her single “I Can’t” at the ACM Awards and took the stage with Lambert at 2024’s Stagecoach. “I’d love to tour with Miranda. I love her sassiness and her fun energy and I love her music, so you bet — that’d be a great tour,” she told Variety.

"Trailblazer" debuted at the Academy of Country Music Awards, with lyrics honoring the careers of Lainey Wilson, Miranda Lambert and Reba McEntire.
