This is going out to all those posters on my February concert review of Keith Urban at Madison Square Garden: If you want to see him walk away ACM’s Entertainer of the Year on May 18 (CBS, 8 p.m. ET/PT), vote for him now. For the first time, fans will decide who wins the night’s most coveted award. The other nominees are Kenny Chesney (who’s taken it the last three years running), Brad Paisley, George Strait, and Rascal Flatts. So, I guess, if you’re a fan of those gentlemen, get to steppin’ as well… but first watch this. (Give it 20 seconds.)
Vote Keith Urban ACM Entertainer of the Year!

I wouldn’t waste my finger voting for any of those dudes. Where are the flippin’ women at? Underwood has outsold all of these dudes, won many an award and no nod? Come on. Country music is acting so azz backwards when it comes to respecting women in that category. Shame on you for even suggesting anyone vote until they play fair.
I am HUGE Carrie fan, but she basically opened for Keith on their co-headlinig tour and he blew her out of the water performance wise. This award is for the Entertainer of the Year, not the most popular or the best voice. Who has stage presence and makes you excited to listen to them for 2 hours and go hoarse from screaming along? Keith Urban.
I meant “and makes you go hoarse from screaming”
Any award show that makes a flat voiced singer like Kenny Chesney win a VOCALIST award let alone an ENTERTAINER award has no validity in my eyes.Brad Paisley and Keith Urban are amazing vocalists, songwriters and producers, yet this year we are bound to see Chesney again win awards like crazy, but well that’s country music for you, what’s next Taylor Swift FEMALE VOCALIST??
My vote is definitely for Keith. I have seen him three times in the past two years and I’m really not a super fan. His live show is just that good. I pray Kenny or the Flatts do not take this one.
Miranda Lambert throws a better concert than Keith Urban and where is she on the noms’ list? Country music likes their women to romp around in short shorts while the men can look as haggered up as Garth Brooks or someone else who went to one to many Beer and Tractor Pulls.
Brad Paisley should win. Awesome guitarist, great singer and songwriter. What’s not to love? As long as Rascal Flatts doesn’t win. I hate that lead singer’s voice.
Can Brad and Keith share an award and then kick ass with a guitar duet? Please please please?
Keith Urban? Is that the guy married to Nicole Kidman? I thought his job was being her assistant. What do you know, he’s a music guy.
Jinny, great idea…give it to Paisley and Urban…can you imagine them both in a song WoW!
Keith Urban is an unbelievable performer! I have seen him three times this past tour. You cant imagine how much heart and soul he puts into his shows! He should win both Entertainer of the Year as well as Best Male vocalist!! His voice is perfect. He is just an unbelievable performer! So please if you feel inclined vote for him!!

Brad’s good, Keith’s great & learned everything he knows from the best, Kenny Chesney is the BEST ENTERTAINER of them all. Kenny deserves this award every year!!
Carrie has sold alot, but has not out sold Kenny, he’s sold 25 millon.
Keith has my vote and I’ve seen him three times this year. Kenny does not have the talent that Keith has. He may have learned something from him, but Keith can out sing and surely out play Kenny. As for Rascal Flatts they are good, but not live. Brad is good, but Keith is much much better. Go Keith you deserve this award more than anyone!
Keith Urban IS the Entertainer of the Year. I’ve seen him loads of times in concerts and he is nothing short of AMAZING. He’s SUCH a great performer, and not to mention, soo great to his fans. If you don’t vote for Keith, you’re really making the wrong decision. Take that from someone who’s seen him 18 times in concert and hasn’t even gotten the tiniest bit tired of him, because I’m going back for more =]
Keith is a true entertainer & connects with his fans on such a personal level, his shows don’t rely on alot of hype. All the nominees are good, but Keith is the real deal.
Keith Urban does deserve this award. Out of each of them he is the most talented. Brad is also very talented, but not as good live. Kenny may sell more seats but that’s because most go for the tailgating, and that’s fine. But if you are voting for who is the best “entertainer” it’s Keith Urban…hands down!
I also think Kenny Chesney is the ultiment ENTERTAINER, I don’t know what it is, but Kenny has it hands down, the man goes for hours with a hurt foot and still keeps up.
I’ve seen Brad & Keith (not a Flatts fan) but Kenny is the BEST of them all.
Kenny outsell’s all of them by far.
He can connect with a crowd of 60,000
like no one else can.
He may not be able to play like Brad or Keith but he can out sing them both. He has GOD given talent in his voice.. I do like Brad, Keith, & George but Kenny’s the EOTY!!!
Keith definitely deserves this award! He’s such an amazing amazing entertainer. From amazing vocals, to incredible musicianship to pure love for an audience – he’s got it all!!!
You don’t have to take the word of this die-hard fan. Ask anyone who’s ever been to one of his concerts and they will say the same thing!!
Keith is the ultimate Entertainer. He’s performed all over the world, including Germany, England, Austrailia, all over the states. He’s been on tour for over a year now
and connects with his audience like no other. He actually goes into the crowd and wows them. He truly deserves Entertainer of the Year.
Keith Urban definitely has my vote! He blows Kenny Chesney out of the water. I was a KC fan until Keith toured with him and I saw what real talent was! I never left a KC show wanting more, but at Keith’s shows I can’t stand to see it end!! GOOD LUCK KEITH!! YOU ARE THE REAL ENTERTAINER!!
Keith deserves the award, his all around talent surpasses all of the other artists. He not only sings with great emotion, but he is really talented with various intruments- 16 to be exact. AND he writes his own songs and music. His concerts are an experience that you won’t forget and want to come back for more. Keith has been touring longer than any other artist this year including a world tour. He has choosen NOT to do stadium concerts during his normal touring schedule because he wants to be able to conncet more with his fans. After attending one of his concerts you feel the real connection with him and his music.
And best of all, Keith is a really nice and respectful person.
Kenny Chesney deserves this award!!
Keith deserves this award hands down. He is the best all around artist. Kenny can stand there and sing, but that is about it. Brad is good, but Keith is better. Keith is very charismatic, works the crowd and plays with his heart and soul. You can tell he is having fun, which make you have fun in turn. He is Awesome!!!!
I saw Keith in Kansas City and went with my daughter. Up until this I was not a country music fan but I am converted now! He was so amazing, fun, and a tremendous talent. I will always go to his shows from now on.
is there anyone interested in seeing the keith urban and kenny chasney concert on saturday june 21 at 4pm at soldier field in chicago? i have four tickets that i am unable to use.
