A little over a month after Blake Shelton championed fan-voted prizes at the 2020 CMT Awards, his Fully Loaded: God's Country edged out Luke Combs' What You See is What You Get and Morgan Wallen's If You Know Me for another fan-voted award, Favorite Album-- Country.
Fans showered award show regulars Dan + Shay with three wins: two in country categories (Favorite Duo or Group and Favorite Song), plus they shared the hip-hop and pop-centric Collaboration of the Year prize with Justin Bieber for team-up "10,000 Hours." For Favorite Song-- Country, Dan + Shay and Bieber edged out Maren Morris' The Bones" and the Shelton and Gwen Stefani duet "Nobody But You."
Morris won Favorite Female Artist-- Country Honors, with fans picking perennial CMA nominations snub Kane Brown as Favorite Male Artist-- Country.
As usual, country singer-songwriter turned pop megastar Taylor Swift won multiple major awards: Favorite Music Video for "Cardigan," Favorite Female Artist-- Pop/Rock and the main prize of the night, Artist of the Year.
