Las Vegas, May 23, 2006 – Ironically broadcast opposite the mega-popular
second-to-final episode of American Idol, none other that Idol
winners Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood
reigned at the Academy of Country Music Awards at the MGM Grand in Las
Vegas. Underwood took two ACM awards, for new female vocalist and single
of the year. His tumultuous marriage and divorce from Renee Zellweger
doesn’t seem to have affected Kenny Chesney’s
career; he was named entertainer of the year for the second year running.
Male vocalist of the year Keith Urban didn’t bring
along his fiancée Nicole Kidman, and Vince
Vaughn, who presented an award, was without his girlfriend and
co-star Jennifer Aniston, as
usual.
