On March 25th, the ACM Awards released their official line-up of performers. Carrie Underwood was one of the most anticipated and acclaimed names on that list. Although fans around the country were eager to hear about Underwood's performance at the award ceremony, many people were skeptical about the possibility. Carrie Underwood has been staying very busy in preparation for her new tour entitled Cry Pretty 360. The tour is scheduled to star on the 1st of May.

The country-music icon went out of her way to appease fans and performed at the ACM Awards. Not only did she give an amazing performance of her song "Love Wins", but she also sang with a group of other female singers. The performance was meaningful and powerful.

Lauren Alina, Maddie & Tae, Mickey Guyton, and Chrissy Metz joined forces to perform a song form the movie Breakthrough.

A majority of fans know Chrissy Metz from the highly acclaimed television series This Is Us. Metz stars in the upcoming film as the loving mother of a child who is struggling for his life after being stuck underwater for 15 minutes in ice-cold temperatures.

Carrie Underwood joined the powerful group to contribute to the film's soundtrack. Chrissy Metz sings an amazing song entitled "I'm Standing With You" for the movie. This is the song that the group of female singers performed at the ACM Awards.

Chrissy Metz kicked-off the performance with a groundbreaking solo. Although Metz maintained a calm and powerful presence, this was her first time singing on live television. She was eventually joined by Alaina, Guyton, Maddie, Tae, and eventually Underwood.

All of the stunning women wore blue dresses. They looked and sounded fantastic. The crowd was erupting with applause after every chorus.

All six women were performing to the best of their abilities. The harmonies were perfect and the delivery was powerful. There was not a dry eye in the entire audience.

The emotional song even started to impact some of the performers.

Towards the end of the performance, Chrissy Metz started to choke up during one of her solos. This was a powerful and meaningful moment that really helped to illustrate the impact of this song.

This was certainly one of the best performances in the history of the ACM Awards. We all know that Carrie Underwood is happy that she carved time out of her schedule to contribute to this wonderful event.
