2009 Academy Of Country Music Awards (Winners)



Carrie Underwood was named entertainer of the year on Sunday at the 44th Academy of Country Music awards, securing her status as country's hottest star on a night that felt like a changing of the guards.

"I've had a lot of good moments in the past four years but this one takes the cake," a tearful Underwood said in accepting the entertainer of the year award.

"Thank you God. I never thought I'd be nominated, I never thought I would win. I don't know what to say. I've got nothing," the 26-year-old star said before letting out an emotional scream and spinning as she walked off stage.

Taylor Swift, who performed her single "You're Not Sorry, won album of the year for her multi-platinum smash "Fearless" and was also presented with a special "crystal milestone" award for selling the most albums of any country artist in 2008 -- a moment she clearly wasn't expecting.

"Oh my, thanks so much. I didn't know this was going to happen actually" Swift said in accepting the award.
