Bachelor Daisy Kent Is Guest Announcer At Huge Country Event
It’s been a big week for Bachelor Nation stars. Season 21 Bachelor Nick Viall was just announced as the host of the reunion episode for Season 2 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Last month, ABC revealed that fan-favorite Bachelorette Hannah Brown will join the upcoming season of Bachelor In Paradise in an advisor role. But they aren’t the only two stars from the franchise to land a huge gig.

Bachelor star Daisy Kent took to Instagram to reveal her latest huge news. She’s in Nashville for the CMA Fest, the annual country music fan fest. But first, she had a big job to do. She was the announcer for the night this week at the famed Grand Ole Opry. As diehard Bachelor Nation fans know, Daisy Kent was an aspiring singer before she was on the show. She collaborated on a rap video with some questionable lyrics. However, her dreams changed when she lost her hearing as a teenager. She can still enjoy music thanks to her cochlear implant, though.
In addition to the CMA Fest, Daisy Kent regularly attends the Stagecoach and Coachella music festivals. Her followers took to the comments to congratulate her on the huge honor.
- “Wow Daisy…how exciting!!! So proud of you!!!!”
- “Born and raised in Nashville Tennessee! Welcome to Nashville Tennessee! I have loved seeing you in your videos and watching you grow!”
- “This is so cool!”
- “What an incredible night for you!!”
- “That’s MY opry performer”
CMA Fest 2025 Schedule
The CMA Fest is an annual country music festival in downtown Nashville, Tennessee. The festival began in 1972 under the name Fan Fest. It’s since evolved to a four-day festival with some of today’s hottest country acts performing.
The CMA Fest for this year starts on Thursday, June 4 through June 8. Some big name performers include Riley Green, Blake Shelton, Jason Aldean, and Carly Pearce. But the festival is more than just music. This year, fans can stop at the Grand Ole Opry booth to see the bedazzled microphone honoring the Opry’s 100th birthday.

Many Bachelor Nation stars attend the CMA fest as fans, including Daisy Kent. Since several stars from the show live in Nashville, they attend the fest. Fans have spotted Kaitlyn Bristowe, Joey Graziadei, and his fiance, Kelsey Anderson, at the festival in the past.
