In addition to Vocal Event of the Year, Lambert is nominated for Female Vocalist of the Year as well as the coveted top prize, Entertainer of the Year at tonight’s ACM Awards. Meanwhile, Little Big Town are nominated for Vocal Group of the Year as well as Single Record of the Year and Song of the Year for “Girl Crush,” which was written by Lori McKenna, Hillary Lindsey and Liz Rose.
If Lambert is awarded Female Vocalist of the Year at tonight’s show, it will mark the seventh consecutive win she has had in the category.
