Last night Kenny Chesney was declared the Entertainer of the Year for the fourth year in a row at the 43rd Annual Academy of Country Music Awards in Vegas. Garth Brooks was also back in the limelight to receive the first-ever Crystal Milestone Award for his outstanding achievements. Performer Keith Urban didn't need a trophy to make him gush. The father-to-be expressed his excitement showing off Nicole's growing baby bump on the red carpet. Top new female vocalist, Taylor Swift got real wet with a chilling performance of "Should've Said No" where she was singing and dancing while water poured down on her. Winner for best female vocalist Carrie Underwood not only looked gorgeous in her many outfits, but she also showed her chic geeky side playing with the hottest new toy she plays on her tour bus - I gotta get me one of those.
For images of the performances from Taylor, Carrie, Kenny and more as well as lots of red carpet beauties, just read more.

Carrie is amazing! Such a great performer and she always looks so cute!
Jewel looked really pretty, can't wait for her new album.
1whatever nicole
2Carrie Underwood is the real deal. Beauty, talent and she shows respect and admiration for her peers. I like Taylor Swift too...She's also very talented and has a lot of poise for someone so young.
3It was pretty funny when Garth was accepting his award and called Reba "Ms. Yearwood" by accident....oops.
4I hope Nicole is enjoying her pregnancy, she looks cute.
5love jewel dress and carrie looks cute.
6Everyone looks great. I can't wait either for Jewel's album. I came across her video and really liked her new song.
7Wow! Nicole finally looks Pregnant! I'm so Happy for her. Getting away from Tom Cruise was/is a blessing~
8Is it just me or does Taylor Swift remind anyone else of a hot cave woman?
9You need some Miranda Lambert pictures!
10is that yellow dress jewel is wearing the one reese witherspoon wore (and rocked) a while back? if so, then bad move on jewel's part because reese looked hotter!
11carries white pantsuit is hideous! and did nicole have to cup her belly? like we dont know she is pregnant.
12:roftl: @ CaterpillarGirl! I was thinking the exact same thing about Nicole!
13You find some of the most beautiful women at this award show! They really care how they look and are less apt to go for the "shock" value like at the AMA's or the MTV awards.
14i think taylor swift has the weirdest eyes/eyebrows...
15Love NK's dress and she looks great.
16Beautiful legs as usual.
This is what happens when you married a real man.
Nicole and Keith look happy, Carrie is just gorgeous, and Taylor's performance was amazing!!
17These shows are getting to the point that all the razzle dazzle & fire works takes away from the artist. I know it was from Las Vegas but there so much glitz going on all over the stage, I found it distracting. Isn't this suppose to be a show awarding "COUNTRY" music stars? Didn't see much country happening!
18Nicole is always beautiful.
