Keith Urban Sweeps at CMT Awards and We're So Excited!
The Australia native and beloved country singer took home four of the show's biggest awards.
The CMT Awards in Nashville, Tennessee, bring together some of the biggest names in country music to honor the best videos in the business and to kick off CMA Fest. This year's award show featured performances from superstar names like Earth, Wind & Fire, Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, Luke Bryan, Jason Derulo, Lady Antebellum, Florida Georgia Line, and Miranda Lambert. Presenters at the awards included the likes of Ashton Kutcher, Jada Pinkett Smith, and Katherine Heigl – and the loudest cheers in the room came alongside a vibrant "Go Preds!" from Carrie Underwood. The big winner of the night was Keith Urban, who picked up four of the show's biggest awards based on viewer votes.
