Carrie Underwood<\/a> revealed in an Instagram post that she will not be returning to host the CMA Awards in 2020. <\/p>\n

Underwood hosted this year\u2019s show with Reba McEntire and Dolly Parton. Before that, she shared the duties with Brad Paisley for 11 years. She praised all three of her colleagues in her post, while revealing that she has a busy year ahead.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s hard to imagine topping what we have accomplished together, so I\u2019ve decided that it\u2019s time to pass the hosting torch (at least for now!) to others that will cherish it and honor it as much as I do,\u201d she wrote in her post.<\/p>\n
