NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Luke Bryan further cemented his country superstar status on Wednesday night with his first entertainer of the year trophy at the Country Music Association Awards.

Bryan beat out legend George Strait, Miranda Lambert, her hubby Blake Shelton and Keith Urban for the CMA’s highest honour.
