Zach Top and his girlfriend Amelia Taylor made their red carpet debut at the 2024 CMA Awards on Wednesday evening (Nov. 20).
The new couple turned heads in all black matching ensembles. Zach Top chose an all-black suit with a belt buckle and completed the look with a black cowboy hat, sticking to his signature country style. Amelia, on the other hand, looked stunning in a black silk dress with a sheer top, adding a touch of elegance to the duo’s coordinated appearance.
This appearance marked a special moment for the couple, as they made their first official public outing together as a pair. Earlier this month, they “hard launched” their relationship on social media when Amelia posted a collection of photos of them on her TikTok account. The couple hasn’t shared much about how they met or how their relationship began, but it is now official.
Ahead of the 58th Annual CMA Awards, Zach Top opened up about his red carpet date during an interview with Taste of Country.
“My red carpet date is my girlfriend Amelia. I’m wearing a black suit and a black hat… I’m all blacked out, I think,” Top explained to the outlet. ”People should listen to me and not look at me too much. She’s going to stun everybody. She’s got a beautiful black dress, and yeah, she’ll have her hair did and all that good stuff. They’ll look at her and listen to me, hopefully.”
