美国乡村音乐大奖揭晓 凯莉蝉联年度艺人
Carrie Underwood has made history after becoming the first female artist to win entertainer of the year at the Academy of Country Music Awards twice.
The former American Idol winner, 27, who last picked up the award in 2009, also won a special triple crown prize.
The honor signals that she has won the female vocalist, entertainer of the year and newcomer prizes in her career.
Trio Lady Antebellum were given five awards while Taylor Swift went home empty-handed, despite five nominations.
Underwood was up against Swift and other artists including Kenny Chesney, Keith Urban and Brad Paisley.
"I think I just got make-up all over Brad Paisley," Underwood said as she accepted her entertainer of the year award from the star.
"Thank you God. Praise the Lord."
Lady Antebellum, whose latest album Need You Now was number one in the main US Billboard 200 album chart, won awards including best vocal group, bringing an end to Rascal Flatts' seven-year run as the winner in that category.
They also won best song and single of the year for crossover hit Need You Now which reached number two in the US singles chart.
Singer Charles Kelley said: "It's just wild, man.
"You never know where a song can take you and tonight is probably the pinnacle of our career."
Singer Miranda Lambert won three awards, including best female vocalist, at the expense of Underwood.
美国乡村音乐大奖日前揭晓,凯莉.安德伍德再度获得年度最佳艺人大奖,成为历史上首位两次获得该奖项的女艺人。
现年27岁的前“美国偶像”冠军安德伍德曾在去年获得年度最佳艺人奖。今年,除斩获最佳艺人奖外,她还获颁具有特殊意义的“三冠王”奖。
这意味着她在演唱生涯中已将最佳女歌手、年度最佳艺人和最佳新人三个奖项收入囊中。
“战前女神”三人演唱组合捧走五项大奖。泰勒.斯威夫特尽管获得五项提名,但最终空手而归。
安德伍德此次一举击败斯威夫特,以及肯尼.切斯尼、凯斯.厄本和布拉德.派斯利等实力派选手。
安德伍德在接受“年度最佳艺人”的颁奖时说:“我脸上的妆都弄到布拉德.派斯利身上去了。”
“感谢上帝,感谢主。”
“战前女神”演唱组合捧走最佳演唱组合等大奖,终结了“无赖弗拉德”组合在该奖项长达七年的垄断。“战前女神”组合的最新专辑《现在需要你》为美国公告牌200专辑排行榜冠军。
“战神组合”还凭借单曲《现在需要你》获得“年度最佳歌曲”和“年度最佳单曲”两项大奖。这首跨界热门单曲位列美国单曲排行榜第二位。
“战前女神”组合成员查尔斯.凯利说:“这真是太疯狂了。”
“你永远不知道一首歌曲将把你带往何处。今晚也许是我们音乐生涯最辉煌的时刻。”
歌手米兰达.兰贝特击败安德伍德,获得年度最佳女歌手等三项大奖。
