George Strait

This is one of those "only in Nashville" moments.

Strait doesn't tend to speak out politically, but many fans interpreted his dance moves as a statement of support for Trump.

The King of Country mingled with the genre's young crop at the awards show.

Strait was in the building on Wednesday night to collect one of country music's highest honors.

What could make an all-star tribute even better? An appearance from the King of Country himself.

Miranda Lambert, Chris Stapleton and Lainey Wilson are also joining the all-star tribute to Strait at the CMA Awards.

Did your favorite artist make the list?

The 1990s are often thought of as the definitive era of modern traditional country — but don't underestimate the 1980s!
