Sam Hunt Is MIA At The ACMs

Sam Hunt did not appear at the ACM Awards.

(Las Vegas, NV)  --  "Congratulations, Sam. Where are you?" 

That's what "Entertainment Tonight" host Nancy O'Dell said last night after she announced Hunt as the winner of Single Record of the Year for "Body Like a Backroad." 

He was MIA, so O'Dell accepted the award on his behalf. 

Fellow country act the Eli Young Band took to Twitter after the event, saying, "Sam Hunt would have loved to be there tonight, but unfortunately, he got lost taking a back road."
