\n\tThe CMA Awards<\/a> are less than a month away, and Lainey Wilson<\/a> is getting ready.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter cohosting last year with Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning, the nine-time CMA Awards winner will be the sole host for the 59th annual CMA Awards, slated for Nov. 19 on ABC.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a clip exclusive to Billboard \u2014 which you can watch above \u2014 Wilson shows how she\u2019s getting ready for the awards, declaring, \u201cAll right! Looks like I\u2019m running the show!\u201d She then reveals how she\u2019s putting her own spin on the proceedings, from supersizing the speakers to making sure her wardrobe is on point. <\/p>\n

\n\tWilson is only the third woman to solo host the awards \u2014 which bills itself as \u201cCountry Music\u2019s Biggest Night\u201d \u2014\u00a0following Dolly Parton<\/a> in 1988 and Reba McEntire<\/a> in 1991.<\/p>\n

\n\tShe is not only the host, but she is one of the leading nominees, tying with Ella Langley and Megan Moroney <\/a>with six nominations each.\u00a0Zach Top follows with five nominations, and Riley Green and Cody Johnson have four each. Performers and presenters will be announced shortly.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI grew up watching the CMA Awards like it was the Super Bowl, so to be hosting for a second year is a true honor,\u201d Wilson said in a statement in September. \u201cI\u2019m humbled that CMA has trusted me with this role, and I can\u2019t wait to love on this genre that has given me so much.\u201d<\/p>\n
