Carrie Underwood, Miranda Lambert & Lady Antebellum Win Big at ACM Awards

(HMG) – Carrie Underwood was the darling of the show at the 45th annual Academy of Country Music (ACM) Awards last night, winning Entertainer of the Year. Underwood made history at the Las Vegas ceremony last night, becoming the first woman to win the prestigious accolade twice, beating off competition from Kenny Chesney, Keith Urban, Taylor Swift and the Zac Brown Band.

Carrie, upon accepting the honor was also given a special Triple Crown award in recognition of her career trifecta of Entertainer of the Year, Top Female Vocalist and Top Newcomer.

Miranda Lambert got in on the action in a big way as well, winning for Video of the Year for “White Liar” as well as taking the night’s big honor for Album of the Year for her third album, Revolution, and Female Vocalist of the Year.

Trio Lady Antebellum were the big winners at the ceremony, held at the MGM Grand hotel, taking home five prizes, including Song of the Year and Single Record of the Year for their hit ‘Need You Now’ – with both categories giving them two prizes as they also wrote the track.
