Hey y’all!
So the CMAs were pretty fantastic! I loved getting to watch and tweet with so many of y’all! I could write a ginormous post about the show, but so I don’t bore y’all too much, I’m going to give you my top 10 favorite moments from the show!!
Ashley’s Top 10 CMA Moments!
10. Jason Aldean/Luke Bryan/Eric Church
I’m not a fan of Luke or Eric, but I really enjoyed their performance with Jason. It’s a great song!
9. Kelly Clarkson & Vince Gill duet
I think I was most looking forward to this performance! I’ve loved Kelly since American Idol, and I’ve wanted her to do country music for awhile! She and Vince sounded great together. You should go download their song “Don’t Rush” asap. Good stuff!
8. The Band Perry debuted their new song “Better Dig Two”
Ooh, I looooove these guys! I am so excited for their new record!
7. Carrie Underwood’s performance of “Blown Away”
I love her. She’s the best. What else is there to say? :)
6. Tribute to Willie Nelson
Lady Antebellum, Blake Shelton, Keith Urban, Faith Hill, and Tim McGraw all did fantastic performances of Willie’s songs. It was wonderful!
5. Carrie’s gorgeous dresses
I always look forward to seeing what Carrie’s dresses will look like! This year they were all really pretty! Her red carpet dress, her gold top/white bottom dress, and her flowered tulle dress were my favorites!
4. Carrie and Brad’s opening monologue
Brad and Carrie make such a great team! Their monologues are always fun, and I loved their Gangnam Style dance :)
3. Blake Shelton’s Entertainer of the Year win
I am so ridiculously happy for Blake! He’s been working so hard for such a long time, and I’m glad to see him being so successful. Since he started doing The Voice, he has introduced country music to a whole new audience, and I’m proud to be a fan! Plus, he’s from Oklahoma, so I kinda love him :)
2. Blake and Miranda’s Song of the Year win
I definitely got teary when Miranda and Blake won song of the year for “Over You”. They wrote it about Blake’s brother who died in a car accident when Blake was a teenager. You could tell it meant so much to them to win for such a personal song. So happy for them!
1. Little Big Town winning their first CMA awards ever!
I LOVE Little Big Town! I’ve been a fan of theirs for a really really long time, and I’m so happy to see them finally recognized for how talented they are. Their excitement was so wonderful and I might have gotten a little teary.
I think this look between Jimi and Karen is priceless!
So…what did y’all think about the show? What were your favorite parts?
Love Jason and Luke so that was great. I love Blown Away she did such a great job and her dresses were amazing as always!
I loved the CMAs ;)
It was such a great show this year. I loved all the performances. Love Blake and so happy for him. He is just so cute and fun!
Thanks for the highlights!
