Miranda Lambert and boyfriend Anderson East made their red carpet debut as a couple on Sunday.
Lambert and East were casually affectionate on the red carpet, holding hands and cozying up for photos. The country star wore a yellow Christian Siriano gown and pink Joyce Echols sandals featuring a mini pistol and holster.
Lambert walked away with Vocal Event of the Year for "Smokin' and Drinkin'" ft. Little Big Town and won Female Vocalist of the Year for a seventh consecutive year. She performed "Tush" with Keith Urban and Billy Gibbons at the ceremony.
"[I] wasn't expecting [to win Female Vocalist again]," the star told People magazine. "I was just happy and thankful, and it makes me want to work harder. I love the feeling of being a part of this community."
Lambert's ex-husband, Blake Shelton, was also present at the awards show. The 39-year-old country star gave a surprise performance of his single "Came Here to Forget," which is reportedly about his new girlfriend, Gwen Stefani.Lambert and Shelton announced their divorce in July after four years of marriage. Stefani confirmed her relationship with Shelton in November, while Lambert was first linked to East in December.
"Anderson is a complete gentleman!" a source told E! News at the time. "He is a wonderful guy with an amazing personality. Miranda loves his sense of humor and his love for music. They have many things in common."
