And then there were three.

Scroll down for our predictions in six categories being handed out live during a ceremony hosted by Kelsea Ballerini, Kane Brown, and Anthony Mackie tonight at 8:00pm Eastern on CBS. Our projected winners are highlighted in gold.

“American Idol” continued with the ninth episode of Season 20 on Monday, April 4. This installment of the ABC reality TV competition saw judges Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie choosing the Top 24 that will compete for America’s vote. The final Hollywood week challenge had singers perform one more solo with a live band, called Showstoppers. The Top 24 will perform at Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa in Ko Olina, Hawaii on Sunday, April 10 and Monday, April 11.
So who was the best of the night? And did they step up their game since their first Hollywood Week performance? Below I rank each hopeful from the least impressive (but with room to grow) to a possible Season 20 frontrunner. Of course we didn’t see them all, so it wasn’t an even playing field for everyone.

The 2021 Academy of Country Music Awards aren’t until April 18, but on April 8 they announced a couple of the ACM Awards winners early: Jimmie Allen as New Male Artist of the Year and Gabby Barrett as New Female Artist of the Year. In addition to their victories, they’re also joining the list of performers scheduled to appear during the broadcast. Watch ACMs host Keith Urban surprise the winners with the news here and here.
This was the second nomination in this category for Allen, who defeated Cody Johnson, Hardy, Parker McCollum, and Travis Denning. His victory makes him the first Black winner ever in his category at a time when the country music industry has been confronted with how overwhelmingly white the genre has been over the course of its history. The ACM ceremony itself will be co-hosted by Mickey Guyton, who is the first Black woman ever to emcee the event.

Jimmie Allen and Gabby Barrett were named the best new male and female artists of the year by the Academy of Country Music in pre-telecast reveals posted Thursday morning.
Both artists were pictured opening up video cards from ACM Awards co-host Keith Urban and being shocked by the news. Allen was handed his as “something that arrived in the mail” in a studio control booth. “You’re just playin’!” he exulted after watching Urban’s video proclamation.
Barrett, sitting at a conference room table, was just a little more expectant when opening her video card:”Oh my God! Now I know why you told me to put on my makeup and get dressed.”
Giving these awards out early isn’t just a way to knock some categories off early and leave more time on the three-hour CBS telecast for performances, although it is performance-related. As Urban noted in his video messages,...

There's always one more surprise when you go on a date on The Bachelor. During a one-on-one with Elyse Dehlbom, Colton Underwood had something special up his sleeve after a day spent at a San Diego amusement park: a "private" performance by Canadian-born country singer Tenille Arts, who sang her song "I Hate This." The song may just have helped the red-headed 31-year-old (an older woman!) from Alaska and the 26-year-old virgin Bachelor fall in love. Ps - there was a packed auditorium there to witness the burgeoning couple's Pda. But if you could tear your eyes off of Underwood and his date locking lips, or the sea of smartphones capturing a potential love story unfolding before their eyes, you were probably enthralled by Arts's emotionally charged concert that actually marks her second appearance on the ABC show.
