COUNTRY MUSIC TELEVISION held their 5th annual CMT MUSIC AWARDS last night (4/10) in NASHVILLE and all the stars came out to play. The show was hosted by funnyman JEFF FOXWORTHY who kicked off the festivities in a red sequined top and black stretch pants as he and DANCING WITH THE STARS beauty LISA RINNA danced to their own version of "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk" before introducing TRACE ADKINS to sing the correct version of the song.
The show was filled with a ton of other musical performances as well, including songs from FAITH HILL, SUGARLAND, KENNY CHESNEY, TRACE ADKINS, RASCAL FLATTS and TOBY KEITH. Country superstar KEITH URBAN had the crowd on their feet as he closed the show with his recent hit "Better Life" and a tribute to the victims of HURRICANE KATRINA.
