… and the results are in!
The 57th Academy of Country Music Awards streamed live from Las Vegas on Monday night with Dolly Parton and co-hosts Jimmie Allen and Gabby Barrett taking emcee duties.
Kelly Clarkson performed a tribute to Parton at one point — while Luke Bryan, Carrie Underwood, Brothers Osborne, Eric Church, Chris Stapleton, Maren Morris, Thomas Rhett all took to the stage for their own performances.
Each was excellent.
