Chris Willman Music WriterDolly Parton has been named as the host of the Academy of Country Music Awards, set to be streamed live March 7 on Prime Video from Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.Parton’s last and only time hosting the ACM Awards was 22 years ago, in 2000.

The country-pop superstar does have other country awards show hosting credits on her resume, though; she co-hosted the rival Country Music Association Awards in 2019 with Reba McEntire and Carrie Underwood, and handled that CMAs job solo once back in 1988.

As almost inarguably the most beloved figure in country music, and one of the most loved in music generally, Parton is prime, so to speak, hosting material.More details about the March 7 show were announced Thursday morning by the Academy of Country Music, MRC and Prime Video.

The show will be two hours long, instead of the three it lasted for most of its long tenure as a major-network broadcast event.
