Megan Moroney is at the peak of her career. Just a few weeks before the start of her Cloud 9 tour, the artist known for the song «Am I Okay?» was nominated for several Academy of Country Music (ACM) awards. However, Megan did not attend the awards ceremony on May 17, and country music fans want to know the reason for her absence.
Here’s what Megan said about missing the 2026 ACM Awards.
Megan was the most nominated artist of the evening, receiving a total of nine nominations. She was up for Female Artist of the Year, Entertainer of the Year, Song of the Year, Single of the Year, Visual Media of the Year, and Songwriter of the Year, among other categories.
Megan missed the 2026 ceremony because she was abroad for her best friend’s wedding. Not only did she attend this important event, but she also served as a bridesmaid, as she explained in an Instagram Stories post published on May 17.
«It is such an honor for me to be nominated today at the @acmawards, and I’m cheering on all my friends from afar!» Megan wrote in her Instagram Stories note. «I am abroad this week fulfilling my duties as a bridesmaid to help my best friend get married. I [love] you all and can’t wait to see you in Columbus! Counting the days until we meet».
At the end of her message, Megan added: «I [love] you all and can’t wait to see you in Columbus!» she wrote. «Counting the days :)»
Yes! Megan has been nominated for ACM awards several times. In 2023, she won the award for New Artist of the Year and has been nominated in several categories over the past few years. So, the 2026 ceremony was not her first.
No. Despite the numerous nominations, Megan did not win any awards this year
