Jennifer Nettles didn’t come to play on the red carpet of the 2019 CMA Awards on Wednesday night (Nov. 13) — but she did come to be played on the radio.
“Play Our F—-n Records Please & Thank You,” the hot-pink train of her white power suit read.
On one of the biggest nights of country music, half of Sugarland couldn’t let one of the genre’s biggest issues — gender inequality in radio play — get swept under the rug. She wore it loud and proud on the red carpet, as the exterior of her outfit’s train featured a drawing of a woman with the female gender symbol. On top of the train read “EQUAL PLAY” to further emphasize the issue within country music.
