Keith Urban Won't Appear at CMAs

The Washington Post reports that country star Keith Urban will not be at this year's CMA awards.
Keith Urban, who checked himself into a rehabilitation treatment center last week for alcohol abuse, will not appear at the Country Music Association awards next month, his spokesman said Monday.

The 40th Annual CMA Awards will air Nov. 6 at 8 p.m. EST on ABC.

Urban is nominated in the two categories he won last year: entertainer of the year and best male vocalist. He's also up for best single, "Better Life," and song of the year, for co-writing "Tonight I Wanna Cry."

The Grammy-winning country singer released a statement Friday that said he entered rehab Thursday night with his wife, actress Nicole Kidman, by his side. His publicist would not give the location of the rehab center.
Keith Urban entered rehab last week. He is just four months into a marriage with actress Nicole Kidman.
