Reba McEntire hosted last night’s ACM Awards and once again showed her love for Cardi B.
During her opening monologue, McEntire began discussing the cross-genre collaborations nominated for the night. She joked that fans could expect a big collaboration with her and Cardi, “Me and Cardi B … I’m just kidding, but I have a song we can do together. There’s ‘No U In Oklahoma.” Then, she added Cardi’s signature sound, saying “and that’s okurrrr with me.”

It’s not the first time she’s given a nod to the rapper. On McEntire’s Twitter page last month, she also tried out Cardi’s signature tongue-roll. Clearly, she’s been practicing.

No word from Cardi yet, but we’re pretty sure she and the entire Bardi Gang would be nothing less than impressed.
The ACM Awards aired Sunday with stars like Jason Aldean taking home the Artist of the Decade Award and Dan + Shay winning song of the year for “Tequila.” McEntire, a country music veteran, hosted the show for the 16th time.
