The actress took the stage to present the first-ever June Carter Cash Humanitarian Award at the awards show, held at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas.
‘Oh my God! “It is a great honor for me to be here presenting a new award that recognizes artists for their humanitarian work,” Seymour began.
This one is named after my dear friend June Carter Cash. Giving back wasn’t just a part of her life, it was an integral part of who she was,” Seymour added.
“His voice helped shape country music, but he also used it throughout his career to advocate for the underprivileged and help emerging artists find their way,” Seymour said.
“Tonight, the inaugural June Carter Humanitarian Cash Award will be presented to someone who lives and breathes the same philosophy: the one and only Trisha Yearwood,” Seymour said to applause.
‘When Trisha guest-starred with “As for Dr. Quinn, I witnessed firsthand her special ability to inspire those around her,” Seymour said.
“She brings people together for causes she believes in, whether through Habitat for Humanity’s Carter Work Project or her efforts to support animal rescue across the country through her organization, Dottie’s Yard,” Seymour continued.
‘She is also a strong supporter of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, preserving the legacy of country music while promoting new artists who continue to push the genre forward. So please welcome Trisha Yearwood, the winner of the first ever June Carter Humanitarian Cash Award!’ Seymour said to applause.
Yearwood took the stage and revealed, “I’ve never received an award like this.” I will say it’s nice to know you won before you got here.

“I don’t think anyone who has received a humanitarian award thinks they deserve it, and that’s absolutely true right now.” “I would like to thank CMT for this honor and for naming it after our friend June Carter Cash, one of the fiercest, coolest, most passionate women I was lucky enough to know too,” she said.
Yearwood also thanked “the entire Carter family for allowing my name to be said in the same sentence as June’s,” adding, “June Carter’s cash was a force, and she was also married to a force.” I know a little about such a life. And I know it wasn’t always easy, but she found ways to make sure she continued to shine her own light, and she had no bigger fan than her husband, Johnny Cash.
“I know a little bit about that, too,” she added, referring to her marriage to country music legend Garth Brooks.
‘This is not one of those: “Look what I can do, look what I’ve achieved.” A look at this as a challenge and a call to be better. Garth and I believe, to whom much is given, as much is expected. If you know me, you know my mantra is to love each other. My challenge to all of us is to not just say it, but to get out there and do it. Thank you,’ he concluded.

‘I just hope to be as much a part of the community and as much of a friend and fellow artist as she was. It can be very difficult to stand up for what is right and what you believe in. June, just understand it. She walked the path. Not only did she say what she believed, but she lived it and was strong in a very human way. “So I just want to say that my hope is that we can all learn a little bit from June Carter Cash’s legacy and be a little more real, more vulnerable, less about me and a little more about us,” she said to more applause.
