Shaboozey didn't just show up to the 2026 ACM Awards—he showed OUT. The artist wore Old West attire on the red carpet, and it was deliberate.
The fashion choice referenced his upcoming album, The Outlaw Cherie Lee & Other Western Tales. Shaboozey was doing press for his next era in the most stylish way possible.
The look was outlaw chic. Shaboozey evoked the spirit of the Old West with his ACM Awards attire, using the red carpet to announce his album. The message was clear: something big is coming.
This is the kind of fashion moment that gets people talking. Mix music announcements with high-fashion red carpet drama, and suddenly everyone's looking at your photos.
While the night belonged to country royalty—Cody Johnson taking Entertainer of the Year, Ella Langley winning seven awards including Single of the Year for "Choosin' Texas," and Parker McCollum scoring Album of the Year—Shaboozey made sure his moment registered.
In 2026, a red carpet look is about what you're selling next. Judging by that Western get-up, fans should start preparing for The Outlaw Cherie Lee & Other Western Tales.
