Keith Urban & Newcomers Dan + Shay Clean Up At American Music Awards [FULL WINNERS LIST]

On Sunday night, country superstar Reba McEntire hosted the annual American Country Music Awards for a record-breaking 16th time. Taking to the stage to make a quip about the dearth of female nominees in this year’s categories, McEntire referenced the recent snow in L.A. “It was so cold it froze us women out of entertainer of the year,” she said.

Among the few women nominated, Kacey Musgraves took home the most awards. Coming off the heels of her recent Grammy wins, Musgraves took home prizes for Female Artist of the Year and Album of the Year for her album Golden Hour.

Meanwhile, veteran country singer Keith Urban took home one of the night’s biggest awards,  Entertainer of the Year, knocking Jason Aldean off the top spot for the first time in three years. Aldean, meanwhile, took home the Dick Clark Artist of the Decade Award. But the biggest winners of the night were Dan + Shay, the new country duo who made their debut with the the hit single “Tequila” back in January of 2018. The duo took home a total of three awards, including Duo of the Year, Single Record of the Year and Song of the Year.

The night was riddled with performances from country’s biggest superstars, including some interesting on-stage partnerships. Florida Georgia Line and Aldean kicked off the show together, while country legends like Luke Bryan, Miranda Lambert, Chris Stapleton, Blake Shelton and Urban also performed throughout the night. This Is Us’ Chrissy Metz made her live singing debut performing “I’m Standing With You” from her upcoming film Breakthrough along with Carrie Underwood, Lauren Alaina, Mickey Guyton and Maddie & Tae.
