Last night was the CMA awards which I had been looking forward too for a month since they started playing those commercials on abc. I was supposed to work until 8:30 that night when the awards started at 8 but then my manager at Epcot surprised me by asking if I wanted an ER (early release) that day! I gadly took it and it made my whole day because I actually got to rush home in time to see the whole thing red carpet and all! When I was finally on my way home, my sister Vik who is currently living in Nashville called me and said she had made her way to the Red Carpet and and saw everyone like Keith and Nicole and Lady A! Soo jealous she got to go!
Then the awards started with Taylor Swift of course opening the show. I thought Carrie and Brad (yes were on a first name basis) did an awesome job hosting. Their opening was funny but I could of done without all the Kayne references. Loove Carrie if you didn’t already know that.
Taylor Switft stole the show and I totally predicted her winning Entertainer of the Year. She was on top of the world and I think no one made as big of an impact on country music this year than she did. In case you missed her say, she thanked everyone else who was nominated in that categoria because she opened for every one of them. Not to bad for a 19 year old! Much love Tay!
I loved the idea that she brought people from her old highschool Hendersonville HS to the crowd to help her sing her song “Fifteen” but maybe they should of practiced first! They keept screwing up her lyrics and going off beat! Way to know her words people.
My FAVORITE performance of the night was a tie between Lady A singing their new single “I Need You Now” and Zach Brown band who sang “Devil Went Down to Georgia”. They were fab. Two of my favorite groups, especially because I still can’t get over when we met Lady A this summer in Chicago! They were so cool! They came home with Single of the Year for “I Run to You” and Vocal Group of the Year! Congrats guys!
Here are both preformances in case you missed them! Enjoy!
That’s all for now and I can’t wait for next years CMA awards!!
