Carrie Underwood and Blake Shelton were the toast of the Country Music Television Awards in Nashville, Tennessee on Wednesday (06Jun18), taking home the three top honours.
Shelton picked up Video of the Year and Male Video of the Year for I'll Name the Dogs, while Carrie's The Champion collaboration with rapper and actor Ludacris earned her the Female Video of the Year honour.
The win marked Underwood's 18th CMT Awards trophy, making her the artist with the most awards in the history of the ceremony.
She also served up the night's stand-out performance with her new single Cry Pretty, which earned the 35 year old a standing ovation at the Bridgestone Arena.
