CMT Music Awards 2018: The Complete Winners List

The CMT Music Awards returned to Nashville on Wednesday, to celebrate country music's biggest stars in the heart of Music City!

Little Big Town took on hosting duties for the night, marking the first time the group has hosted a major awards show. And this year's show is a bit different from years past, with Justin Timberlake and Ludacris among the surprise nominees. Timberlake earned a nod for Video of the Year for his Chris Stapleton collaboration, "Say Something." Ludacris is also up for Video of the Year, thanks to his part in Carrie Underwood's hit, "The Champion."
