Keith also collected awards for Social Superstar and Collaborative Video of the Year for "The Fighter", which features Carrie.

Though Urban might have snagged most of the night's awards, some fans have joked that he and Kidman should also have won for "cutest couple in Nashville".

"I want to say massive thank you to my wife, Nicole Mary, because you have no idea how much of what I do, she's involved in every little piece of it", the Australian country star gushed. BK said, 'Well the Chainsmokers would be cool.' And in my head I literally was thinking, 'Wow, that's something we've never talked about but that would be really cool.' And the next thing you know, a week and a half later we're getting a phone call.

The 2017 CMT Music Awards could have been renamed the "Keith Urban Music Awards", after the country music star cleaned up, snagging four different honors.

Underwood won Female Video of the Year for "Church Bells".

It's not unusual for former Tishomingo resident Miranda Lambert to deliver a highlight performance at an awards show, and she took the opportunity Wednesday night to showcase a new song from her excellent double album, "The Weight of These Wings".

"I love making music", Urban said during his acceptance speech.

"Jesus", Alaina proclaimed to the audience, apologizing to God for her oversight. Jason Aldean, Darius Rucker, Charles Kelley of Lady Antebellum and Derek Trucks kicked off the show with a rocking tribute to southern rocker Gregg Allman, who died last month at age 69. Luke Bryan will sing with Jason Derulo, while Earth, Wind & Fire will join Lady Antebellum and Frampton will perform with Brothers Osborne. "It's been an incredible ride and a big thank you to my boy Luke, we had an incredible time doing the 'Crossroads" and I just appreciate it all, honestly'.
