The final award given out on Sunday night will name the country artist who -- all things considered -- had the best year in 2011. There's no formula for how a voter should choose. It's some magic mix of sales, concert draw, chart success, high-profile appearances and "heat." Everybody has their own special blend to decide which artist is tops. Fans can still vote at www.VoteACM.com.
Jason Kempin / Ethan Miller, Getty Images Daily Roundup: Blake Shelton, Trace Adkins + More
It was a sad start to a Thursday in country music, as stars from around the country learned of the death of Earl Scruggs. By day's end, however, things were much more exciting -- even a little strange. Blake Shelton was honored in a "hottest guy" poll, and Trace Adkins must have just been hot when he took his clothes off to record new music.

Brad Paisley has walked away with the ACM Male Vocalist of the Year for five straight years. It's been so long since another artist won, that a former winner (Keith Urban) has fallen out of the nomination cycle. Much like the Female Vocalist category, this group represents the next generation of country music.

The 2012 ACM Awards are shaping up to be quite an entertaining evening, with new country stars being added to the celebrity lineup of performers each day. That's in addition to a live onstage wedding, and now, a list of country talents set to bring special duets to the ACM stage. The Academy announced today (March 29) the lineup of special collaborations that are slated to be a part of country music's "party of the year."
Larry Busacca, Getty Images Blake Shelton Named Country Music’s Hottest Guy
The verdict is in for People Country's hottest guy, and the top cowboy stud of the year just so happens to be now widely-loved 'The Voice' celebrity coach and country star Blake Shelton. The Oklahoma native is (not surprisingly) quite "aww shucks" about the whole thing, telling the magazine, "I think it's funny because there is nothing about me, if I was a girl, that I would think is sexy" (quotes via the Boot). But country ladies everywhere seem to disagree.
NBC Blake Shelton Makes Final Cut on ‘The Voice,’ Three Country Singers Sent Home
Blake Shelton sent the most countrified member of his team home during Monday night's episode of 'The Voice.' To be fair, the song Jordan Rager was asked to sing was way out of his comfort zone, but a perfect fit for his Battle Rounds contender Naia Kete. Rager's growth during the rehearsals was commendable, but ultimately not enough.
Jason Merritt, Getty Images Miranda Lambert Dishes on the Secrets of Her Kitchen and Cooking for Blake Shelton
Between recording award-winning albums and high-energy tour dates, Miranda Lambert can whip up a pretty mean corn and macaroni casserole. The singer and wife of Blake Shelton recently sat down with Taste of Home to share some of her favorite foods and recipes.
Frederick M. Brown, Getty Images Blake Shelton Dives Further Into Bromance With Fellow ‘The Voice’ Coach Adam Levine
A couple weeks ago we joined in on the fun, reporting about 'The Voice' coaches Blake Shelton and Adam Levine and their budding bromance. And while Shelton still playfully jokes that he'd like to make out with his Maroon 5-fronting co-judge, it seems Levine has just one request we need to take into consideration: He's not too keen on the whole "bromance" word. In a recent interview with PEOPLE, the two, who are good friends in real life, talked about their friendship, and Levine requested a ban on a certain b-word.
Jason Merritt, Getty Images Blake Shelton Insists He and Miranda Lambert Will Always Fold Their Own Underwear
Yep, it's true. If you were hoping this celebrity couple would hire you as their live-in laundress, your dreams have just been shattered. Blake Shelton, who is about as down-home country guy as they come, says he and wife Miranda Lambert will not be hiring someone anytime soon to do their dirty work -- their dirty laundry, that is. But that doesn't mean the 'Honey Bee' singer particularly enjoys the task. Hitting Twitter last month, Shelton conveyed how he really feels about the matter.
