Ella Langley Leads Nominees with Eight Nods Ahead of 2025 ACM Awards

Ella Langley has certainly made her mark on country music in the last year. Now, all of her hard work is up for recognition at this year's Academy of Country Music Awards.

The 'weren't for the wind' hitmaker is the most nominated ahead of the 2025 event, boasting a total of eight nods. It is her first time being nominated for any ACM honor.

Her smash hit with Riley Green, 'you look like you love me,' is up for six of those noms, including Single of the Year, Song of the Year, Music Event of the Year, and Visual Media of the Year as an artist and director. She is also in the running for Female Artist of the Year, as well as New Female Artist of the Year.

Should she take home the Song of the Year honor, it will be as both artist and songwriter.

The Langley-Green collaboration, 'you look like you love me', made waves last year, crossing over into the Billboard Hot 100 and securing the young Langley's place at the top of the country music zeitgeist.

The hit went on to earn the star her first CMA Award at the 58th annual CMA Awards last year, the tune taking home Musical Event of the Year. Perhaps there are still a few more wins in store for the song.

The 60th ACM Awards will take place on Thursday, May 8, at 8 p.m. EDT/7 p.m. CDT. The event will stream live from the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas exclusively on Prime Video.
