    Miranda Lambert Returns to the ACM Stage With Emotional “Run” & Fiery “Kerosene” Duet With Ella Langley

    At the 60th Annual ACM Awards on May 8, Miranda Lambert, the most decorated artist in ACM history, reminded the world why she’s country music royalty. Though she wasn’t nominated this year, the show wouldn’t have been complete without her — and she delivered not one, but two unforgettable performances.

    A Decade in the Making: Lambert Debuts “Run” Live
    Taking the stage solo, Lambert performed her deeply personal single “Run” for the very first time. Released in February 2025, the song marks the only track on her upcoming 10th studio album that she wrote entirely alone.

    Speculated by fans to reflect on her past with fellow artist Blake Shelton, Lambert has never confirmed its inspiration — but she’s been open about the emotional weight behind it. In a recent interview, she shared:

    “I wasn’t ever ready to perform it until now… Emotional songs — you don’t ever really grow out of them. They’re admissions of human error. They’re apologies.”

    The performance was raw, stripped-down, and vulnerable — a true standout in a night filled with star power.

    “Kerosene” Anniversary Duet with Ella Langley
    Later in the show, Lambert returned to the spotlight — this time with Ella Langley, the most-nominated artist at this year’s ACMs — to perform her iconic 2005 breakthrough hit “Kerosene.”

    Celebrating 20 years since the release of her debut album, Lambert passed the torch to one of country’s brightest rising stars in a moment full of swagger and sisterhood. The duet highlighted the genre’s evolving power dynamic — one where seasoned legends and bold newcomers fuel the fire together.

    A Legacy That Keeps Burning
    With 38 ACM trophies and 75 career nominations, Miranda Lambert’s place in country music history is secure. But her performances at this year’s ceremony proved she’s not just a legacy act — she’s still pushing herself creatively, still unafraid to be vulnerable, and still raising up the next generation.

    🔥 Whether baring her soul in “Run” or lighting up the stage with “Kerosene”, Miranda Lambert remains a force — and one of country’s most honest storytellers.

    Rick Springfield didn’t just step onto the New Year’s Rockin’ Eve stage with “Jessie’s Girl” — he threw the entire crowd straight back into the ’80s as the final seconds to 2026 ticked closer.

One viewer summed it up perfectly: “I forgot what year it was for three minutes.” Social media lit up in real time. Comment sections flooded with reactions like “This is the moment that saved New Year’s Eve” and “How does he sound THIS good after all these years?” Cameras panned across the crowd, and it was impossible to miss the smiles — the kind that come from being transported back to simpler nights, car radios turned up too loud, dreams still ahead.
