(PressZoom.com) - The 2009 CMA Awards winners did not include Barbara Mandrell or Reba McEntire, but the pair did make special appearances at the yearly event. Legends in the country music world, these two singers helped hand out the awards this year.
Big winners of the coveted awards this year were 19 year old Taylor Swift who received entertainer of the year. The last time a woman won this award was when Shania Twain grabbed the award.
Former frontman of Hootie & the Blowfish Darius Rucker came home with an award for his solo album. His new artist of the year was interesting since he has been a band member in a different genre of music for years.
The show was hosted by Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley.
