Beyoncé Is Going to Perform at Tonight’s Country Music Association Awards Because Of Course She Is
Beyoncé fans are feeling pretty vindicated today because she’s apparently going to be performing at tonight’s Country Music Association Awards. The ceremony will air on ABC and her performance was confirmed by ABC’s Good Morning America.
In April, Beyoncé’s #DaddyLessons sparked heated industry debates on the definition of Country. 6 months later, she’s opening the CMAs! pic.twitter.com/OPiJ1IYRBy

Rolling Stone is reporting that it isn’t known if she will be performing with anyone or what song she’ll be singing, but it seems fairly obvious to fans that she’ll be singing “Daddy Lessons” from her album Lemonade and will bring out the Dixie Chicks, who’ve been singing the song during stops on their DCX MMXVI tour.

Hopefully Beyonce brings out Dixie Chicks to sing “Daddy Lessons” and they all get boo’d after denouncing Trump. But I’m still not watching

My dream for tonight’s (rumored) Beyoncé CMA performance is Daddy Lessons/Goodbye Earl duet with the Dixie Chicks & they all endorse Hillary

Earlier this year, there was debate regarding “Daddy Lessons,” particularly over whether or not it could be considered true country music if Bey was singing it.
Looks like we have an answer to that, at least.
Of course, “Daddy Lessons” wasn’t even the most controversial song on the album. Maybe you’ve heard of a little ditty called “Formation,” which has been making headlines for various controversies since February.
Anyway, back to those vindicated fans.
DADDY LESSONS BEST COUNTRY SONG OF THE YEAR. DON’T @ ME IF YOU DISAGREE. #LEMONADE https://t.co/WUmNtsb0TL
