Megan Moroney This is not to split hairs.
When a TikTok user posted a video criticizing the country star’s hair extensions at the 2024 CMA Awards (held on Wednesday, November 20), she didn’t miss a beat before being applauded.
The video in question shows a shot of a TV screen showing Moroney, 27, accepting the award for New Artist of the Year. The user claimed in the caption that the country singer’s extensions are two different colors. “I swear a hairstylist’s mind never shuts off. Who matched her extensions???” User wrote. Adding: “She is golden and ashen above.”
Since then, the video has amassed 900,000 views (and counting), one of which was apparently Moroney, who responded with a sarcastic but less pointed objection, writing: “Good of you!”
Other commentators were quick to defend Moroni. “As a fellow extension blondie, that’s light! You looked beautiful, congrats!” one user replied to her comment.
“Literally. Megan looked beautiful. Her hair killed the dress, like, they need to leave her alone,” said another.
A third wrote, “You looked so beautiful Meg, don’t let this one comment overshadow the hundreds of other people praising you!”
Indeed, Moroney was a winner in more ways than one, not least for her red carpet style. The singer stunned in an ultramarine Christian Siriano mermaid gown with a dramatic organza tulle skirt that topped her off. We weeklyList of best dressed at the annual CMA Awards.
Speaking on Hulu’s red carpet live stream, Moroney described her look as “very blue and very sparkly.” She accessorized with Giuseppe Zanotti heels and a custom Eddie Parker clutch emblazoned with the name of her latest album, “Am I OK?” In pitch-perfect blue cursive lettering.
Moroni went over the glamor neck of the whole country. Her bright blonde hair was well teased, fluffed and curled into a crown of big barrel waves. Meanwhile, the makeup artist Jessica Candge Sheglum used products to create the singer’s bold lashes, shimmery eyeshadow and bright pink lips.

After performing his single, “Am I OK?” During the show, Moroney received the CMA Award for Best New Artist, a career milestone he lovingly dedicated to his legions of fans at home.
“It’s for the fans … they’re a big reason I’m here right now,” he said in his speech. “The way they show up for me, the way they care about my songs, and they make signs and T-shirts, and they wait outside the venue starting at 3 in the morning, it’s really crazy to me. is.”
And now Moroni can thank her haters for standing up to her haters on social media as well.
