Awards Shows

There were a whole lot of viewers who were crying along with Miranda Lambert when she won Female Vocalist of the Year and grooving to the beat of Lady Antebellum's performance of 'Downtown' during the 2013 ACM Awards. In fact, the 48th annual show had over 15 million viewers (15.38 million, to be exact), posting the largest audience since 1998.

Fashion no-nos at the 2013 ACM Awards included one artist who went back in time for her dress and another who was apparently inspired by Dracula. The Worst Dressed at the ACMs list features at least one superstar who is more regularly found on Best Dressed collections, proving that everyone is vulnerable to an oopsie. From one plain Jane to one hot mess, these folks who were worst dressed at count

Superstars played it safe, while country newcomers took chances that mostly paid off to make the Best Dressed List at the 2013 ACM Awards in Las Vegas. Keith Urban, Tim McGraw and Taylor Swift looked great, but all three came with looks fans have seen before. Newcomers like Scotty McCreery and Easton Corbin showed the style this season calls for.

Stevie Wonder closed out the ACM Awards with his classic soul hit 'Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours,' turning the end of the 2013 red carpet show into a celebratory country party.

In a surprise upset, Luke Bryan took home the coveted Entertainer of the Year award at the 2013 Academy of Country Music Awards on Sunday night (April 7) -- beating out more established stars like Miranda Lambert, Blake Shelton and Taylor Swift.

Keith Urban presented the Female Vocalist of the Year award to the dazzling Miranda Lambert at the 2013 ACMs, and she was completely surprised by the win. "I thought for sure Carrie had it this year, and she damn well deserves it!" she said as she took the stage... and broke into tears.

Mega superstars Garth Brooks and George Strait gave a once-in-a-lifetime performance at the 2013 ACMs on Sunday night (April 7), singing together for the first time ever in tribute to Dick Clark.

First-time ACMs host Luke Bryan took a break from his gig cracking jokes at co-host Blake Shelton's expense in order to perform his new single 'Crash My Party' during Sunday's 2013 ACM Awards broadcast. It was almost like he crashed his own party, since he was emceeing. The producers certainly got their money's worth, since both Bryan and Shelter both pulled double duty as hosts and performers. Re

All-star collaborations were the order early during the 2013 ACM Awards performances in Las Vegas on Sunday night (April 7). Even Eric Church's acoustic performance of 'Like Jesus Does' turned into a duet. Blake Shelton, Sheryl Crow, Luke Bryan and Pistol Annies began the show performing 'Boys 'Round Here.' It was an electric introduction to country music's biggest party.

Leave it to Carrie Underwood to switch it up for her 2013 ACM Awards performance. Fresh off debuting her new single 'See You Again' on her former stomping grounds of 'American Idol' last week, she elected to perform her most recent No. 1 hit 'Two Black Cadillacs,' as opposed to repeating the song she just did a few nights prior. She likes to switch it up for her fans.

George Strait performed his current single 'Give It All We Got Tonight' at the 2013 ACM Awards show on Sunday (April 7). The superstar is planning to release a new album later this year, and is currently on his farewell tour. Despite some audio difficulties, the crowd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas still gave the King a healthy round of applause.

The big 2013 ACM Awards winners in Las Vegas were Miranda Lambert and Luke Bryan. Lambert took home three trophies, including Female Vocalist of the Year and Single and Song of the Year for 'Over You.' The singer couldn't help but become emotional as she accepted her fifth straight Female Vocalist trophy.
