Belle, I think I'm the only one left on this thread, lol.

Steven Tyler and Carrie Underwood sang 2 songs together: Undo it and Walk this way. It was awesome (or awful depending who you ask, lol).

Aw, I wish I would have seen that. I'm not so much a Carrie Underwood fan but I really enjoy Steven Tyler. Would have been interesting to see. I'll have to check youtube later and see if it shows up there.

It feels more like I am watching a concert with a few awards thrown in.

I agree on it being awesome!!!



Sara Evans did great. Also Love Jason Aldean!!

 

[Starbrite]

Miranda Lambert looks fantastic!! I'm really starting to like her music more.

 

[nhrenee]

I had to go away for awhile. Shoot, I missed Sara Evans? Rats.

Blake's a little dorky but he makes up for it in volume.

I totally forgot it was on..and Reba had face book posts about it today too.

 

[Buckalew11]

I'm happy! I got to see my friend who plays guitar for Reba. He came out on the stage to her at the end of her song! Yay!!

Taylor Swift winning? meh.

 

[snapppyd]

LOVE country music. I thought the combinations tonight were awesome - James Taylor with Zac Brown, Steven Tyler with Carrie Underwood!

I was disappointed my man Toby didn't win

DH and I watched it. I loved the duet with Carrie Underwood and Steven Tyler, I thought it was awesome! Loved Miranda Lambert winning, but hated her dress. Blech! And Taylor winning Entertainer of the Year? I don't think so! Was she even nominated for anything else this time? All the teenage girls voted for her, I'm sure. I got on-line to vote for Miranda, but you had to register and I didn't want to do that so I didn't vote. I didn't like how they went back and forth from the MGM where the award show was being held, to Mandalay Bay where Sugarland was performing a concert. I thought that was odd. Did enjoy hearing Sugarland perform though, but hated the duet with Jennifer Nettles and Rhianna, yuck!! Rhianna didn't add anything to the song. I wish Jennifer would have teamed up with someone else. Loved hearing Ronnie Dunn sing again too!

I am with all the lovers of the Carrie/Steven duet! We saw her just last Saturday at the Opry and it was fun to compare it to last night's performance.

Did anyone catch the lipstick all over Rihanna's teeth? It was horrible! I agree with the PP on this too but also loved Zac and JT. Speaking of Zac - he gets nominated but never seems to win unfortunately.

I think they are made aware of the winners ahead of time - did you notice Miranda with her first win? She let the actual song writers speak and she stood back. I think it was because she knew she would be in front of the mike again.

I really didn't like Jennifer and Rhianna duet at all, I loved all the other duets, what a weird combo, almost Rhianna didn't wanna do, so she put no effort in it at all.

The Judds didn't look very good, Naomi looked like she could barely walk and Wy was orange

I watched probably the first hour and 45 minutes, then I got bored with it and changed the channel, looks like I didn't miss much.

Glad I didn't have to see Taylor Swift win, that performance she put on was ridiculous enough . Something about that girl rubs me the wrong way, and it isn't just the fact that she can't sing. She doesn't fit with all the other Country Music Artists.

It was nice to see Sarah Evans back , loved the Carrie Underwood/Steven Tyler performance and Alabama with Brad Paisley.

Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things
Drunk and grumbling on about how I can't sing


I love her, though. I voted online and texted! I am a teenage girl, yes, but who cares? She makes money doing what she loves!

Bolding is mine.
Taylor Swift was nominated for Female Vocalist of the year and Album of the year as well as Entertainer of the year. She also received the Jim Reeves International Award for her “outstanding contributions to the acceptance of country music throughout the world.” She got six votes from our household, and we certainly are not all teenage girls. I don't get the Taylor Swift hate, I really don't.

I guess I didn't pay attention to her being nominated for other awards because I just don't care for her. I'm not saying she doesn't have a place in country music, she does. She is just not for me, and I didn't think she deserved "Entertainer of the Year." That's all.
