At 69, Reba McEntire Wears Transparent Lace to ACM Awards — And Everyone’s Saying the Same Thing
Country music legend Reba McEntire turned heads at the 2025 ACM Awards — not just for her powerhouse hosting and performance skills, but for her daring fashion choice that had everyone saying the same thing: “She’s still got it.”
At 69 years old, Reba stunned on the red carpet in a sheer, floor-length black lace gown that blended elegance with boldness. The see-through ensemble, adorned with subtle beading and floral embroidery, revealed a tastefully designed bodysuit underneath — a perfect mix of sultry and classy that had fans and fellow celebrities buzzing.
Social media lit up the moment she stepped into the spotlight. “Reba just shut the place down. She looks incredible!” one fan posted on X (formerly Twitter). Others chimed in with comments like, “Ageless beauty,” and “This woman is proof that style knows no age.” Within hours, photos of her gown were trending across multiple platforms.
Fashion critics praised the look as a confident, age-defying statement. “Reba is redefining what glamour looks like in your 60s,” said stylist and fashion editor Tamika Rowe. “She’s not trying to look 25 — she’s embracing her age while owning the red carpet. That’s real power.”
The ACM Awards marked a big night for McEntire, who not only hosted the event but also delivered a moving performance that brought the audience to its feet. Yet it was her red carpet moment that stole the show early on, showing that she’s still a force to be reckoned with — both musically and stylistically.
Fans applauded her for her fearlessness. “She’s always been authentic,” said longtime follower Kayla Owens. “This wasn’t about shock value. It was about confidence. Reba wore that gown like a queen who knows exactly who she is.”
McEntire, known for her trailblazing career and timeless appeal, has long been admired for embracing her natural aging process and inspiring others to do the same. In interviews, she has spoken openly about self-acceptance, reinvention, and feeling more comfortable in her skin now than ever before.
“It’s not about turning back time,” Reba once said. “It’s about loving the time you’re in.”
With her radiant smile, trademark red hair, and unmistakable grace, McEntire’s ACM appearance served as a masterclass in how to age unapologetically — and stylishly. As cameras flashed and compliments poured in, it was clear that the country icon wasn’t just attending another award show — she was making a statement.
And if the universal reaction is anything to go by, the world heard it loud and clear: Reba McEntire is aging like fine wine, and she’s doing it on her own terms.
