What else is new when it comes to Carrie Underwood? There’s NO REAL competition in that genre, although I know of some folks who could give them a real run for their money, but the ‘CMA’S’ has yet to shatter that glass ceiling so it will stay this way for a while. 

Haha pretap.  You have to live with it that CU will win every award on the show. It is written all over her birth chart.  She has a very damned good chart and some lucky stars every singer could ask for.  She is indeed blessed but to a non fan, it’s getting boring.

Nice job Carrie.  :)

Mediocre song and Carrie did her best – which lately has not been much better than just okay. 

Is there something wrong with her left leg  – always looks turned in.  Does that one leg in front of the other walk all the time.

It’s not that I am not a fan of Carrie, but I still feel like they need to make room for others. The awards shows get so boring seeing the exact same people win everything every single year.  Lost interest last night.

Kariann Hart: Congratulations to Carrie and Scotty for winning!  It was good to see so many Idols here.  I hope we’ll be seeing some more successes! I was wondering if the leg thingie was because the heels are too high. 

Maybe, but at this point I think it may just be a performance quirk of Carrie’s because I feel like I’ve seen it before. 

Congrats Carrie & Scotty, and may we see more Idols performing and winning at these things in the future! 

I loved Carrie’s vocals for her Good Girl performance and thought the performance aspect got a lot better when she joined her band, but I prefer Carrie’s concert performances of GG in that she seems freer on stage. I really love how she’s mastered such a crazy difficult song to sing, with the tempo and all the modulation needed. GG’s definitely done its job as far as selling the album  and getting to #1 at country radio, plus it’s going to cross 1 million copies sold as a download this week too. And, the fact that it got such great reviews from the country and mainstream world is an added plus. We’ll see if it can get any higher than #20 on HAC but even if not, whatever it does on HAC is just gravy. 

I’d say the performances at the show that stuck with me the most are Little Big Town’s Pontoon which was perfectly staged and they sounded great as usual and probably the Willie Nelson/Jamey Johnson/Darius Rucker/Zac Brown Band performance, just because. 

But, the highlight of the night for me was probably Brad and Mike punking Carrie by sharing a long embrace after Carrie & Brad won the Collaborative Video CMT, totally leaving Carrie hanging as she waited for her husband to hug her. Hilarious!

Congrats to Scotty on his award and I loved his acceptance acknowleding his high school and thanking them!  And congrats to Carrie, she is on a roll right now.  I know we will be seeing lots of them as it is going to be a great week with CMA FanFest events. 

I hope it’s ok to post this here mj.  Here is a press release highlighting Carrie’s big wins last night along with Scotty’s award and a few others.

I still don’t understand how “Good Girl” got these 2 nominations. Her single had just been out a few weeks when the nominations were announced. (and the video was released even a couple weeks after that) I guess if your name is Carrie Underwood you just automatically get nominated! LOL!!

Casey and his fancy purple jacket! :)

Ha Ha I was thinking the same thing.  How annoyed is Eric Church?

Awards shows of 2009 were basically Taylor Swift-dominated, while 2010 and 2011 were Miranda’s years. Carrie still got Entertainer of the Year at the ACM, and the ACM Triple Crown for having won the 3 major awards – Best New Artist, Female Vocalist, and Entertainer – at certain points of her career.  But the CMA and ACM vocalist awards were no longer solely dominated by her, although she remains a strong nominee. The CMTs, which is a fan-voted award show, showed all 3 women getting their share of the awards these past couple of years. So I’d say they did make room for at least 2 female county artists other than Carrie. lol
