Bell Bottom Country was absolutely the best album of the year. So happy for @laineywilson, Jay Joyce, Broken Bow, and @ASCAP. Lainey Wilson is an absolute star!

"Entertainer of the year, Lainey Wilson! That's huge," someone else exclaimed. "She is on an absolutely meteoric rise. Incredible for a female country singer! She is so good! Sophomore slump? Not for Lainey Wilson!"

While Wallen's fans are making it clear that they aren't happy he lost, Wilson's fans are showering her with support. "Lainey Wilson's Bell Bottom Country is such a distinct album," one Wilson fan tweeted. "The style, production and image are outstanding. Great melodies and structure to every song; she carved out her own unique brand of country music. Love that we get another single from it."

If I were Morgan I wouldn’t go to awards shows anymore. Can’t believe that Jelly Roll, a dude that isn’t country and sounds horrible, is more celebrated than Morgan, and actual artist.

"I adore Lainey Wilson but am severely butt hurt that MorganWallen didn't win Album of the Year," one other CMA Awards viewer admitted. "I've literally not spent one day since March 3rd not listening to it."

Morgan Wallen sets record after record with his album and totally got robbed. #CMAawards
— Ryan Breton (@RyanBretonWX) November 9, 2023
"Once again Morgan Wallen is getting robbed at the CMAs, he should have won Album of the year, none of the other artists have been able to produce a 32 song album, outrageous," an angry fan commented.

Lainey Wilson over Morgan Wallen for album of the year is the most laughable thing I’ve ever heard #CMAAwards2023
— Amy Shepard (@amykshepard) November 9, 2023
"Morgan Wallen had the biggest year we've seen a country artists have ever," someone else added. "Number 1 after number 1, one of the best selling albums of all time, sold out stadiums all over the world & doesn't win a single award. Shit like that is why people don't take these seriously."
prevnext"Charts"
Morgan wallen not winning album of the year is fucking bonkers. Was top of the charts for any genre for MONTHS, and will continue to be towards the top for many more months.
Luke combs even should’ve gotten it next before Lainey Wilson.

"I love Lainey Wilson but you cannot tell me that Morgan Wallen didn't have the album of the year," one person tweeted. "Just about every song released was number one at one point."
