The stars came out to celebrate the best of country music at the 2023 CMT Music Awards hosted at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas on Sunday.

Shania Twain, 57, showed off her age-defying physique in a red and black suit with a matching low-rise sarong, complete with a daring leg slit.

The That Don’t Impress Me Much hitmaker rocked strawberry-toned locks to the event and added extra height to the look with black platform heels.

Kelsea Ballerini, 29, who is one of the hosts for the evening, along with Kane Brown, wowed in a baby blue corset-style dress with a flowing asymmetrical bottom.

Rapper Megan Thee Stallion, 28, also opted for blue and looked sensational in a form-fitting, high-necked gown with side slits.

Twain will be honored at the ceremony as the third recipient of the CMT Equal Play Award.

The award is given to artists who use their platform to advocate for change and help the underrepresented in country music.

Brown and Ballerini previously co-hosted the show together in 2021 and 2022.

Lainey Wilson leads the nominations at this year’s awards show, with a total of four nominations, including Video of the Year and Collaborative Video of the Year for her ‘wait in the truck’ video with HARDY.

Carrie Underwood is also nominated and holds the record for the most nominated performer in the show’s history.

Carrie could break her own record of 25 wins if she succeeds again on Sunday night.

Other Video of the Year nominees include Kane Brown and his wife Katelyn Brown, Blake Shelton, Cody Johnson and Morgan Wallen.
