Jennifer Nettles
The CMA is helping fans get into the Christmas spirit again this year with their favorite country artists with its CMA Country Christmas special airing on ABC at 9 p.m. ET tonight (Dec. 2). Jennifer Nettles is back for a fourth year of hosting the holiday star-fest that this year is filled with Christmas performances by everyone from the Duck Dynasty crew to Luke Bryan, Darius Rucker, Mary J. Blige, and Rascal Flatts.
“It’s really a joy for me to get to host ‘CMA Country Christmas,’” Nettles said. “I have so much fun doing it! I love the holiday season, and for me to get to be a part of this show for the fourth year in a row is a really big honor. What I love about doing this gig is that it’s the closest I’ve gotten to the old classic television variety shows. It is entertainment that everybody in the family can find fun, and I hope it’s something that keeps happening for years and years and years.”
