Country music royalty hit the red carpet last night at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas for the 2012 American Country Awards, with the winners chosen entirely by online fan voting.

This relatively new show first aired in 2010 and is starting to gain popularity among Nashville’s finest — if last night’s red carpet is any indication.

We thought the best dressed celebrities of the evening included Carmen Electra, Kristin Chenoweth and Jana Kramer, while some of our least favorite looks were worn by Natasha Bedingfield, Rachele Lynae and Kimberly Schlapman.

Others who looked totally glam last night: LeAnn Rimes, Miranda Lambert, Payton Rae, Jewel, Carrie Underwood and Karen Fairchild.

Winning Artist of the Year and Male Artist: Luke Bryan, Female Artist: Carrie Underwood, Duo-Group: Lady Antebellum, Breakthrough Artist: Jake Owen, New Artist: Lauren Alaina. Check out the rest here.
