Jana Kramer, and fiance Brantley Gilbert recently competed yesterday at the Academy of Country Music Awards for the “best new artist” trophy. The couple got engaged the 28th of March at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee. The twosome are now settled in Nashville, with Kramer focusing on her music for the tour with Blake Shelton this summer. Kramer plays around with People‘s reporters saying, “We’re up against each other and we’ve got our gloves on!” Although neither half of the couple won “new artist of the year,” they did each win an award. Kramer won “new female vocalist of the year” and Gilbert won “new male vocalist of the year.”

It looks like Taylor Swift has a new man on her arm.  The country singer, 22, is taking leukemia patient Kevin McGuire, 18, to the ACM Awards to make up for missing his senior prom, reports RadarOnline.  “Kevin I’m so sorry but I won’t be able to make it to your prom,” Swift posted on Facebook.  “But I was wondering, the ACM Awards are coming up.  Would you be my date?”  McGuire, who was diagnosed with leukemia at 13, invited Swift to his senior prom after prompting from his sister.  “I tried to think of a kind person who would make me feel OK.  And laugh,” said McGuire.  “A person who would look amazing, and the one person who would make me feel special for one night.  It was her.”
