All-star collaborations were the order early during the 2013 ACM Awards performances in Las Vegas on Sunday night (April 7). Even Eric Church's acoustic performance of 'Like Jesus Does' turned into a duet. Blake Shelton, Sheryl Crow, Luke Bryan and Pistol Annies began the show performing 'Boys 'Round Here.' It was an electric introduction to country music's biggest party.
The big 2013 ACM Awards winners in Las Vegas were Miranda Lambert and Luke Bryan.

Despite the accuracy (or lack of accuracy) of these predictions for the 2013 ACM Awards, one thing is certain: one group of country fans will be ecstatic come Monday morning, while another will be furious that their favorite wasn't recognized for his or her talent and achievements. Only one out of every group of five can take the trophy for Entertainer, Male Vocalist, Female Vocalist and the other top prizes. This means four more will be left politely applauding for someone the industry says had a little better year. Fans tend to not be as graceful in defeat.
Blake Shelton is not just co-hosting the 2013 Academy of Country Music Awards with Luke Bryan, he's also performing -- and what a performance it's shaping up to be.
