Paisley said while Nelson was being honored, the CMA was also stripping him of all of his awards. Chimed in Underwood, “it appears there’s been some doping charges.” The noted pot smoker said: “Guilty!” After performing with Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Lady Antebellum and Blake Shelton and receiving his award, an emotional Nelson thanked the CMA and the city of Nashville for honoring him.
