Carrie Underwood scores three wins at CMT Music Awards

The CMT Music Awards should be renamed the Carrie Music Television Awards.

Carrie Underwood cleaned house at the country awards show Wednesday with three wins, including video of the year for “Something in the Water,” and she even gave a shout-out to her 3-month-old son.

“This is my first awards show since little Isaiah has been in the world,” said Underwood, who gave birth in late February and sported a skin-tight white dress. “I’m sure he’s napping on the bus right now, but I should definitely say that he has already inspired me so much as well as has my husband, Mike.”

The show in Nashville, Tennessee, marked Underwood’s fourth consecutive victory for video of the year.

The 32-year-old songstress, who also performed, is the most decorated CMT Award winner with 13 awards, including six for video of the year. She walked into the Bridgestone Arena with five nominations – she was the leader – and also won female video of the year for “Something in the Water” and collaborative video of the year for “Somethin’ Bad” with Miranda Lambert. She earned two nominations for both video of the year and female video of the year.

Lady Antebellum kicked off the CMT Music Awards with the help of Grammy-winning DJ-producer Zedd.

Lady A later won group video of the year.

“We also want to thank the beautiful, amazing Kate Upton and Tony Hale for being a part of this video,” Hillary Scot said of the actors, who appeared in the clip for “Bartender.”

Jason Aldean and Bob Seger won CMT performance of the year for their performance of “Turn the Page” from their “CMT Crossroads” special.

Florida Georgia Line, who performed outside, won duo video of the year for “Dirt,” while Sam Hunt won breakthrough video of the year for the “Leave the Night On.”
