Keith Urban picked up his first ACM Entertainer of the Year award during Sunday night’s (April 7th) show, following November’s CMA Entertainer of the Year win.

When he heard his name, he took a moment with his wife Nicole Kidman before hugging his fellow Entertainer nominees and heading to the stage to thank his team and his fans.

“I’ve been nominated nine times, so at some point I come to terms and accept that the nomination is the award,” Keith says backstage. “I don’t know how things go that way sometimes, but I love what I get to do and I put everything into it, but I know all the others do too. It’s just…thank you, God, really.”

Having wrapped up his recent Graffiti U World Tour, Keith is set to play a handful of festivals this summer, including the Sun Fest in West Palm Beach, Florida May 5th.
