The 2022 CMT Awards are a wrap following the ceremony on Monday night (April 11) at Nashville Municipal Auditorium. Jason Aldean, Carrie Underwood, and Cody Johnson all walked away with two trophies during the star-studded evening.
The show was hosted by actor Anthony Mackie, Kane Brown, and Kelsea Ballerini, who tested positive for COVID yet managed to still host from her home and perform from her backyard.

Underwood, who performed her song “Ghost Story” dangling from aerial silks during the show, continues her reign as the most awarded artist in CMT history with a total of 25 career wins with her wins for Video of the Year and Collaborative Video of the Year with Aldean for “If I Didn’t Love You.”
Johnson took home Male Video of the Year for ‘Til You Can’t,” and Digital First Performance of the Year for Dear Rodeo (from CMT Campfire Sessions).
