The Judds, performed for the final time together. Naomi Judd would pass away on April 30.

The 2022 CMT Music Awards, the 56th edition of the awards ceremony (dating back to its origins as the Music City News Awards in 1967), were held in Nashville, Tennessee on April 11, 2022, at the Nashville Municipal Auditorium and locations in and around Nashville, Tennessee.[2][3][4] The ceremony was hosted by Kelsea Ballerini (virtually), Kane Brown and actor Anthony Mackie.[5] The ceremony marked the final appearance and public performance of the country music duo, The Judds, as Naomi Judd died on April 30.

Background

The CMT Music Awards is country music's only entirely fan-voted awards show. Following the long-time CBS produced Academy of Country Music Awards departed from the network, Paramount Global announced that the live televised ceremony would move to CBS from CMT. While CBS will carry the award show live, CMT will have week-long special programming and events capped by exclusive "director’s cut" airing of the ceremony on CMT.[6]

Judds Reunion

On April 1, CMT announced that Wynonna and Naomi Judd would be reuniting for a performance on the 2022 CMT Music Awards. The reunion comes ahead of the duo's induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame in May and Final Tour in the Fall. They performed their hit song, “Love Can Build a Bridge,” from the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville. The performance marked The Judds’ only nationally televised award show performance in more than twenty years.[7] The reunion performance was met with positive reception. People Magazine called the performance "stunning",[8] and Billboard called the reunion a "glorious return and a welcome comeback".[9] This would be the final live performance for Naomi Judd and for The Judds as a duo; on April 30, 2022, just nineteen days after their performance, and the day before their induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame, Wynonna and Ashley Judd announced that Naomi had died.[10][11]

Ballerini tests positive for COVID-19

On the day of the live telecast, Ballerini announced that she had tested positive for COVID-19. She was asymptomatic, and said she would be able to co-host and perform from her home, with help from CMT and CBS.[12] Kane Brown, who hosted last year's ceremony with Ballerini, would step in and shared the main stage with Mackie as a co-host.[13]
