Kenny Chesney was happy to receive the award of "Entertainer of the Year" for the 4th year in a row, but he did not like the way he was chosen to win. Chesney complained about the Academy of Country Music using fan votes to determine the winner.
"The entertainer of the year trophy is supposed to represent heart and passion and an amazing amount of sacrifice, commitment and focus. That's the way Garth won it four times, that's the way I won it, that's the way (George) Strait won it, Reba (McEntire), Alabama all those years. That's what it's supposed to represent."
This is the first time in 43 years the top prize was determined through online voting. This prize, Entertainer of the Year, had always been decided by ACM members.
