Although the ACM Awards aren't until April 18, The Boot reported on April 6 that the Academy of Country Music announced the winners of a handful of awards voted on by the ACM Board of Directors. Urban was the recipient of the Jim Reeves International Award, which is awarded for "outstanding contributions to the acceptance of country music throughout the world," according to The Boot. Urban follows in the footsteps of past Jim Reeves International Award recipients Buck Owens, Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks, to name a few. Urban has stopped in six countries spanning three different continents on his recent world tours, making him more than worthy of the honor!
On April 18, Keith Urban will compete for the coveted Entertainer of the Year honor at the ACMs against Kenny Chesney, Toby Keith, Brad Paisley, George Strait, the Zac Brown Band and the lone females in the category: Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood. Urban is also nominated in the Top Male Vocalist of the Year category and will vie for the prize against Chesney, Paisley, Strait and country newcomer Darius Rucker (formerly the frontman for Hootie and the Blowfish).
Reba McEntire will host the ACM Awards, which will be broadcast live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas and feature performances by the host along with Brooks & Dunn, Jason Aldean, Kenny Chesney, Lady Antebellum, Tim McGraw, Carrie Underwood, Black Shelton and Trace Adkins.
