The country crooner also revealed the nickname he has for his famous wife.
Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman led the pack of cute couples during the 54th Academy Of Country Music Awards at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Sunday night.
Urban won one of the top awards of the evening, Entertainer of the Year, and upon hearing his name called, planted a big kiss on Kidman. This is the first time he has won in this category, despite being nominated nine times. During his acceptance speech, the 51-year-old country crooner couldn't help but gush over his famous wife as well as share the nickname he has for her.
"Thank you so much, Baby Girl, I love you so much," Urban said to Kidman before adding, "My team, thank you every one of you. To the fans out there, you are amazing. You have no idea what you mean to me, no idea."
Urban went on to thank the couple's two daughters, Sunday Rose, 10, and Faith Margaret, 8. “Baby Girl, I love you and our girls, Sunday and Faith, who are at home watching right now,” he continued. “My whole team … I love you guys … Country radio, I love you so much. Thank you so much. God bless every one of you.”
In addition to his big win, Urban also performed his new single, "Burden," at the awards show, and Kidman admitted to ET's Nancy O'Dell on the red carpet that she got very emotional when she first heard the song. "I’ve already cried at it, I’ll try not to cry," she said ahead of her husband's performance.
She later posted a photo of herself giving Urban a kiss on the cheek, writing: "Just listened to his song, Burden, at the #ACMAwards..... looooooooove."
Kidman also shared a photo of her and Urban backstage after he won. "The night is just beginning!!" she captioned the pic. "Celebrating Entertainer of the Year at the #ACMAwards! THANK YOU EVERYONE!"
