‘Mr Man of the Year’: Miranda Lambert’s Husband Named One of Nashville’s Most Beautiful People & Fans Agree

The votes have been tallied and the public has spoken; country star Miranda Lambert’s husband is a certified heartthrob. Brendan McLoughlin was honored at a Nashville Lifestyles event where he was dubbed one of the city’s Most Beautiful People, which fans think is well-deserved. Lambert, whose PCCA dress is under fire online, couldn’t be prouder of her beau.

Taking to Instagram yesterday, September 26, to boast about her dashing husband’s victory, Lambert shared a post praising McLoughlin’s achievement.

Amid the carousel of photos she posted, one showed the couple at the event. For the prestigious affair, Lambert donned a beautiful black velvet dress that accentuated her curvaceous figure and cheekily showed off her cleavage.

Meanwhile, the man of the hour sported a classy charcoal suit jacket and pants, which he paired with a white T-shirt and gold cross necklace.

Lambert’s third photo displayed a zoomed-in view of the magazine profile Nashville Lifestyles did on McLoughlin as one of the 25 people who were honored. Alongside a picture of the retired police officer whose hometown is Staten Island, there is written text that shares some details about him.

McLoughlin was asked a series of three questions about who he is influenced by, the accomplishments he is most proud of, and what his definition of beauty is.

Regarding who he deems the biggest influence in his life, McLoughlin disclosed, “My wife has been one of my greatest influences. She followed her dream in music and made it a reality. What is most inspiring is the fact that just because she reached her original goals didn’t mean her journey was complete.”

McLoughlin went on to marvel at the fact that Lambert continuously raises the bar for herself with new ideas and goals, which he says inspires him to do the same.

Concerning the achievements he is most proud of, the title winner divulged, “Helping people. Throughout my 8 years as an NYPD Officer and in my daily life, helping others — regardless of whether it’s in big or small ways — is where I feel my most accomplished.”

Lastly, when it comes to his perspective on beauty, McLoughlin revealed how it centers around authenticity. “[Being] confident and authentic to who you truly are, not only displaying the parts of you that you think people want to see,” expressed the doting husband.

“Loved celebrating my husband last night at the @nashvillelifestyles most beautiful people event. So proud of him. Beautiful inside and out that’s for sure,” penned Lambert in the caption of her post.

McLoughlin shared his own Instagram post about his win with the same photos his wife posted in hers. Alongside his carousel, he captioned, “It’s an honor to be named one of Nashville’s Most Beautiful People. Thank you @nashvillelifestyles! Had so much fun celebrating last night with @mirandalambert too.”

Both McLoughlin and Lambert’s followers wasted no time in showing their support for the police officer retiree and entrepreneur. “Well deserved 🔥,” commended a fan. Echoing the sentiment, another opined, “So deserving! Congratulations 🙌🎉.”

“An NYPD legend,” praised another fan while someone swooned, “😍👏👏 He is quite a handsome Man!! Congrats to Him.”

“Gosh a’mighty, gorgeousness!” exclaimed an admirer. Jumping in on the commentary, an observer noted, “NYPD living the life.” “Woooo Hoooooo Mr Man of the [Year] 😍😍😍😍,” gushed another supporter.

Days before McLoughlin’s title celebration, he and the “Wranglers” artist attended the MTV VMAs where Lambert shared some sweet words about how supportive her husband is.

Speaking to E! News correspondent Will Marfuggi, the musician stated, “Brendan’s the best. He’s down for anything, super happy and supportive, in the best way. Let’s me do my thing, but is right there beside me and it’s really awesome.”

For the video music award event, while Brendan McLoughlin looked dapper in an all-black outfit, Miranda Lambert stunned in a black suit jacket that was decorated with turquoise stones. Her jacket showed off her bosom and left a bit of her turquoise undergarment exposed.

In the same way that Lambert’s VMA outfit left a portion of her cleavage exposed, the sparkly dress she recently sported at the People’s Choice Country Awards also left her bosom on display. The powerhouse performer received mixed reactions when she wore this dress at the event on September 26.

The 40-year-old country queen didn’t just show up; she made a statement. She dazzled in a stunning $2,200 long-sleeved V-neck dress with sequins and ruched detailing along its plunging neckline, creating a perfect blend of elegance and allure.

Its sharp, structured shoulders added a hint of power to the look, creating a defined silhouette that was impossible to miss. The dress fell below Lambert’s knee and ended just before her ankles.

Lambert elevated her look with a pair of sleek brown $135 Kaye Crystal heels and a matching clutch that tied the ensemble together flawlessly. She didn’t hold back on the bling either.

The singer accessorized with a striking gold and blue pebble necklace that glistened against her outfit, along with a few rings to add that extra touch of sparkle.

Lambert’s beauty game was just as strong. She fashioned her blonde locks in soft, loose waves that fell effortlessly over her shoulders, while her makeup was flawlessly done, accentuating her natural glow.

As she walked the carpet arm-in-arm with McLoughlin, fans couldn’t help but gush over the couple’s stunning presence.

“Gorgeous 🔥🔥,” commented an admirer, while another noted, “They set the PCCAs on 🔥🔥.” Others couldn’t get enough of Lambert’s outfit. In this regard, one fan praised, “An icon and a bombshell” while another added, “One of my new fav looks.”

Another supporter exclaimed, “So beautiful!!! 🩵 We 💓’em!!!” “She’s amazing…” marveled a fan. Another Lambert admirer opined, “Absolutely Beautiful ❤️❤️.”

However, it wasn’t all praise and applause, as a few critics asserted their judgments. One X user chastised, “She needs to cover up more!!” “Why does she always have to bare her chest? Always!” complained a Facebooker while another highlighted, “Women don’t wear slips under their dresses anymore… And it shows.”

Another critic said, “Come on she’s not 20 anymore…ridiculous.” However, Lambert, known for marching to the beat of her drum, didn’t let the naysayers dull her shine.

She ended up taking home one of the night’s biggest honors: the People’s Choice Country Icon Award. True to form, Lambert wasn’t done turning heads just yet.

When it was time to accept her award, the country superstar rocked a completely new look — a fierce leather dress ensemble paired with a classic cowboy hat. It was the same edgy outfit she sported during her powerful performance on stage.

Taking to the stage, Lambert couldn’t hide her genuine surprise as she held the award in her hands. “Thank you so much. It’s so weird for me to stand up here and hold an icon award,” she began, her voice full of emotion. “I mean, to me, an icon is who I grew up listening to with my daddy.”

The singer then gave a heartfelt nod to the legends who shaped her musical journey. She name-dropped artists like Jerry Jeff Walker and Guy Clark.

But the speech wouldn’t be complete without a special shoutout to the people who’ve stood by her side through thick and thin: her fans. “I feel like I’ve been able to make so many great memories in my life and in my career because of fans,” she added.
