The CMT Music Awards are unlike any other country music awards show. Winning an award means a lot to each winner, seeing as they are completely fan-voted.
Called “Country’s best night out,” the 2020 CMT Music Awards had to get creative because they weren’t able to have a live audience. Performances took place at landmarks around Nashville while award winners accepted their trophies virtually.
Ten total awards were handed out on Wednesday (Oct. 21), including Collaborative Video of the Year.
The nominees for Collaborative Video of the Year were as follows:
• Blake Shelton with Gwen Stefani – “Nobody But You”
• Carly Pearce and Lee Brice – “I Hope You’re Happy Now”
• Dan + Shay & Justin Bieber – “10,000 Hours”
• Kane Brown feat. Nelly – “Cool Again”
• Marshmello & Kane Brown – “One Thing Right”
• Thomas Rhett featuring Jon Pardi – “Beer Can’t Fix”
It was no surprise when it was announced that Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani had won the award for Collaborative Video of the Year. Their music video dropped on January 21 and has generated well over 47 million views!
