The 2022 ACM Awards winners have been revealed, with some of the biggest stars in country music taking home the top trophies. In the end, Miranda Lambert, Carly Pearce and Lainey Wilson led with two wins apiece.

The ACM Awards were handed out on Monday night (March 7) during a ceremony that, for the first time in the history of the awards, did not air live on network television. The awards show is streaming live via Amazon Prime on Monday night, but still highlighting the same string of awards and performances that have characterized the show in years past.

Chris Young led the nominations with seven in 2022, including Album of the Year and Single of the Year. However he didn't come home with any hardware. Lambert tied a record set by Reba McEntire with her 16th Female Artist of the Year nomination, but actually lost in that category. No worries as for the first time ever she was crowned Entertainer of the Year.

Wilson and Parker McCollum went into the show as winners on Monday night; they were announced as the winners of New Female Artist of the Year and New Male Artist of the Year days ahead of the show in 2022. Wilson would go on to pick up Song of the Year.

Jimmie Allen and Gabby Barrett joined Dolly Parton as hosts of the ACM Awards in 2022.

Remember: The best way to watch the 2022 ACMs is on TV, with ToC on your phone!
