Reba won't be returning as host of the ACM Awards this year after more than a dozen years in the role.  Reba tells Country Weekly , "[I've] passed the torch to Blake. I'm a huge Blake Shelton fan."   Reba has co-hosted the show with Blake for the past two years.

Reba will still be on television in a big way with her new ABC comedy, Malibu Country, premiering in November.
