ACM Awards

The ACM Awards, held in fabulous Vegas, kicked off my Sunday evening with a Bang. Hosted by the wonderful Reba McIntire, the show started out with Brooks n Dunn singing one of the older songs "Play Something Country" (very fitting for the evening). During their song, they would take a pause and introduce another singer (Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, Sugarland, and Rascal Flatts) and they would sing a verse of one of their songs, and flashed back to Brooks N Dunn. This was kinda cool, but how many times did they repeat the verse "I'm a George Straight Junkie"? About 4, maybe 5? Finally that was over and here comes the good part. Mr. Kenny Chesney! He makes a no sleeve shirt and jeans look fantastic! However, I know it's not a crime these days, but I disagreed with the black hat and brown boots!!

Other Great performances were Heidi Newfeld, I loved the "Ring of Fire" they had around her when she sang " Johnny & June". George Straight is always a classic entertainer and I might add that Jamie Fox's introduction was hysterical. I loved the dress and performance by Carrie Underwood Singing "I told you so". Another great performance was from Jamey Johnson. The lighting effects were amazing on his song "In Color".

I was not impressed with David Copperfield and his introduction of Taylor Swift, nor was I impressed with the performance by Taylor Swift. I also did not like Leeann Womack, I'm not sure how she was able to stand in those shoes. Miley Cyrus and Sugarland tie for my vote for "Worst Performance of the Night!"

Miley's outfit was just horrible in my opinion, her performance was to dramatic. Sugarland, where do I start. She had an ugly outfit and he had an ugly hat! Not to mention the way she stared into the camera and all the faces she made. Does she think that is attractive? After that performance, I am questioning why I liked them in the first place...

My "Best Performance of the Night" goes to... Trace Adkins! Trace had an injured Marine introduce him last night. I was blown away by his performance. This was a totally different gentleman last night then what I seen in concert last month. The song brought tears to my eyes and sent chills up my spine. Way to go Trace! Trace also is my pick for Best Dressed Male and Best Acceptance Speech of the night for his award "Single Record of the Year - You're gonna miss this".

Other Performances of the night included:

• Toby Keith - I am a big fan of Toby, and I love his song "God Love Her", but he seemed to be very shaky and his face seemed bloated... or was it just my TV that portrayed that image?

• Lady Antebellum
• Keith Urban
• John Rich
• Miranda Lambert
• Rascal Flatts
• Montgomery Gentry
• Reba McIntire

A few other of My Fashion Woohoo's and Boos.
