Are We Watching the CMA's?

So the Country Music Awards went off without a hitch, however the guys in charge or censoring the show had a tough job keeping up with Kid Rock hosting! The smoking and drinking wasn’t the best image to put out there to the public either. Kid Rock tried to bring humor to the awards show and threw out a warning to the crowd that there were to be no Kanye West stunts pulled, but there was no fear of that, being as Taylor Swift did not win any awards that night.


Carrie Underwood had a fantastic evening walking away with Video of the Year and CMT Performer of the Year, Lady Antebellum also had a big night with the year's best-selling album to date, and they won Group Video of the Year. However, they were the target of one of the sharpest lines of the night made by Kid Rock, "Lady Antebellum is like the hillbilly Fleetwood Mac, but I suspect they don't do drugs or sleep with each other." Yet another great example of the kind of host Kid Rock was!


Performers for the night included Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban joined by John Mayer, Miranda Lambert, Toby Keith, Lady Antebellum, Tim McGraw, Brad Paisley and the Zac Brown Band.
