I am looking forward to interviewing the artists that have inspired me and that I’ve looked up to over the years.”  Morgan shared the same sentiments when it came to being excited about the honor bestowed upon them.  “What a great day,” said Morgan. “I was in New York City just leaving the Good Morning America studios when I heard that CMA had asked me to host their first ever Red Carpet special. I was and am extremely honored. It’s gonna be a great night and I’m looking forward to working with Julianne Hough to bring all the excitement of the red carpet to the fans.”  The special will be available to all ABC network affiliates a half hour before the awards begin on Wednesday, Nov. 12, at 8 p.m. EST.
