Lambert won the Album of the Year award for "Revolution," and also took home the Female Vocalist of the Year trophy. Her hit song "The House That Built Me" also won Video of the Year, and scored Song of the Year for songwriters Tom Douglas and Allan Shamblin.

The singer was the center of the show in many ways. She led all nominees with nine, performed "That's The Way That the World Goes Round" and joined Loretta Lynn and Sheryl Crow for a rendition of Lynn's classic "Coal Miner's Daughter."

Lynn handed her the female vocalist trophy.

"I'm proud that I can now call her a friend," she said before turning to Lynn. "Thank you so much," she said as she started to cry, "Thank you for everything you've done."

She then shouted, "Thank you, Reba," and waved at an emotional Reba McEntire.

A few minutes later during a backstage interview, Lynn hailed Lambert: "Nobody in country music is more country than Miranda."
