- Miranda Lambert - female vocalist of the year
- Girl in a Country Song - music video of the year (mostly because it points out how ridiculous country music has become, degrading women and making us seem like nothing more than something pretty to look at, RIDICULOUS. You go girls! Show them how it's done! Watch the video here, comically filmed but unfortunately true)
- Little Big Town - single of the year
- Raise 'Em Up - musical event of the year
One of my favorite performances of the night was Reba with Brooks & Dunn. A great pairing.
Now let's move on the the best part of award shows, the red carpet. To review last year's CMA red carpet click here. See below for the good, the bad and the ugly from this year's show.
The BoiseBombshell Best Dressed:
I can't
say I'm surprised to see Jana Kramer on the best dressed list, she
usually rocks the red carpet. Tonight she just might have stolen the red
carpet. The navy sparkle detail with her blonde locks was the perfect
pairing. She is so stunning in this gown, you might miss noticing her
beautiful baby bump had she not pointed it out.

Short & sweet. I love how the cutouts on the sleeves match the neckline. She did a fabulous job at keeping her accessories to a minimum, which keeps the short length from looking too racy. Did I mention how amazing her body looks in this dress? Stunning.

I am so excited to have Kacey Musgraves on the best dressed list this year. She's missed it a couple times in the past (remember her hair last year? see under "maybes" here), but definitely nailed it this year with her old Hollywood glamour style. Love the dark hair, red lips and the unique gown color. The only change I might have made? Skip the chunky rings and go with a delicate tear drop jewel or diamond necklace. Did I mention I am OBSESSED with her new album, Pageant Material? Get it here. Watch her video "Biscuits" from her new album here. Ummm...I almost forgot she performed tonight, without pants on. Just a one piece bodice, awkward. Who wants to worry about waxing when performing in front of thousands? She of course pulled it off and looked amazing, even without pants.

She has landed on my worst dressed list many-a-times, but tonight I was pleasantly surprised. The high neckline, keeps the sheer underlay from being too scandalous. I love the way she did her hair...or rather how someone else did her hair.

The BoiseBombshell Maybes:
I was surprised how much I liked the unique neckline. I love the color too. Unfortunately it's way too much material for her 5'1" frame. If the dress would have been fitted on the bottom and possibly tea length, it would have been perfect.

I like the neckline, but the satin detail down the side and neckline made it look a little 90s. The satin clutch didn't help this issue. The pink hair was probably intended to make her look more rebel rock n' roll, but it honestly just looks silly.

The BoiseBombshells Worst Dressed:
If your grandmother's curtains had sleeves...

Scotty McCreery |
Asymmetrical disaster. as if that was not enough, there's always the holes on the side and the ridiculous platforms. Sometimes more is more.

Kimberly Perry of The Band Perry |
The boys did not do too hot tonight. Another terrible fabric and print choice. Did you see the shoes? And what in the world is on his tie?

Easton Corbin |
This vest looking mess is missing it's blouse. Terrible, terrible. And the color? No no no.

Jennifer Nettles |
Oh the Walkers. He has way too much going oh with texture and pattern of his suit and she has way too little going on in terms of fabric.

Clay & Jessica Walker |
I didn't know if was possible to be overwhelmed by ruffles, but whoa, that is a lot of ruffles. This top knot is all wrong for this unstructured gown.

Erika Christensen |
The hair color, the sheer netting, the satin...it's just looks trashy. Ugh, I hate saying that, but seriously.

Danielle Bradberry |
This was the absolute worst gown of the evening. The color, the cut, the fit, the way her hair is flat and lifeless to her head, her orange tan...Oh but if you could hear her sing, you would not care what she's wearing, her voice is so incredibly powerful. Formerly of the Steel Magnolias, Meghan Linsey is now trying to break out as a soloist. She has the vocal talent, now she just needs a new stylist.

As always Brad & Carrie made it one entertaining evening and the red carpet arrivals made it all the more amusing. Hope you enjoyed this red carpet review!!!
