Luke Bryan will return to host the 2016 ACM Awards, but Blake Shelton will not. The promo video for the 51st annual awards breaks the bad news of Blake’s departure while teasing who Lukes new on-stage buddy may be

Clue No. 1: The white fluffy dog on the far side of the bar Bryan is leaning against during his “breakup” phone call. It looks an awful lot like a certain artists famous friend Jake.

Clue No. 2: That voice. It sounds awfully familiar..

Clue No. 3: The drink. “Tip that on back, I’m sure you’ll find your answer,” kinda reminds me of a song ….

Gee …I wonder who it could possibly be ?
