It’s becoming a bit old hat for Scotty McCreery — another country music association announces award nominees, and the Garner High School student is a contender.

On Monday, CMT announced that Scotty’s music video for “The Trouble With Girls” has been nominated for “Breakthrough Video of the Year” at this year’s CMT Music Awards, to air on June 6 on the country music cable channel.

Fans can go online to vote for Scotty at www.cmt.com through June 4. Carrie Underwood – like Scotty, a former “American Idol” winner – leads the nominations with five.

Scotty’s fellow nominees in the breakthrough category have all competed against him before – Lauren Alaina, who has runner-up when Scotty won the 10th season of “Idol” a year ago; Brantley Gilbert and Hunter Hayes, both of whom were nominated against Scotty for Best New Artist at the Academy of Country Music Awards earlier this month; and Pistol Annies and Thompson Square, both of whom were nominated against Scotty for Top New Artist in December’s American Country Awards.

Scotty McCreery picked up another fan-voted accolade last night when he was named New Artist of the Year at the 47th Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas."I’ve got to thank the fans — you guys are incredible!” said the 18-year-old Garner High School senior, who was named the winner of the 10th season of “American Idol” less than a year ago. Scotty also thanked the country music community and Jesus.

Scotty attended the three-hour ceremony, broadcast live on CBS, with his parents, Mike and Judy McCreery of Garner, and his sister, Ashley, a Charlotte college student.

He won the honor over fellow newcomers Hunter Hayes and Brantley Gilbert. Fans cast votes for their favorites over the past two weeks. Each of the three performed a snippet of a song from the Mandalay Bay resort, at a fan bash just down the street from the awards at the MGM Grand. In Scotty’s case, he apparently rushed back to the MGM from Mandalay just in time to hear his name called.

Missing a Tar Heel presence on this season of "American Idol" now that all our North Carolinians have been eliminated?

Based on viewer votes, the top 5 men and top 5 women will advance to the Top 13, along with one wildcard pick each from judges Randy Jackson, Jennifer Lopez and Wacky Old Uncle Steven Tyler.
