Country's biggest stars were honored on Wednesday night!
The 2020 Academy of Country Music Awards honored the biggest names in country!
Host Keith Urban took multiple stages in Nashville, Tennessee on Wednesday night to hand out this year's ACM Awards. Maren Morris and Thomas Rhett led the pack as two of the most-nominated performers of the night, with Morris receiving her first nomination for Group of the Year for her work with The Highwomen -- alongside Brandi Carlile, Natalie Hemby, and Amanda Shires. (The Highwomen also happens to be the first all-female group to find themselves in that category since The Dixie Chicks in 2002.)
Meanwhile, Rhett enjoyed his very first Entertainer of the Year nod (and win!), alongside Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Luke Combs and Carrie Underwood. (Who was another winner! Yes, it was a tie.) This year's show also marks a milestone for first-time ACM nominee Justin Bieber, who was up for awards in four categories thanks to his collaboration with Dan + Shay on the song "10,000 Hours."
