Ashley McBryde is the third and final co-host of the 2020 CMT Music Awards, CMT announced on Friday (Oct. 16).

McBryde, the 2019 CMT Breakthrough Video of the Year award winner, will lead this year's show along with fellow artist Kane Brown and actor Sarah Hyland. CMT originally stated that there would be a fourth co-host, but that plan has changed. McBryde and Brown are also scheduled to perform during the event.

“I am beyond excited, and maybe a little nervous, to host an awards show for the very first time. Luckily, it’s not all about me -- it’s about celebrating badass music videos and the brilliant men and women that help us create them," McBryde, one of the most-nominated artists at the 2020 CMT Music Awards, shares in a press release. "I’ve loved watching and being part of this event in the past, and I think the fans are really going to enjoy what we have planned for them. It’s going to be a blast!”

CMT also announced presenters for the 2020 CMT Music Awards on Friday. Brandi Carlile, Demi Lovato, Diplo, Idina Menzel, Jessica Chastain, Katy Perry, Kelly Clarkson, Rob Thomas, Tanya Tucker and Taylor Swift will each fill that role at times throughout the show.
