    Default ACM awards last night

    Did anyone watch the ACM awards last night? I watched the entire show, although hubby came out and woke me up when I dozed off during Brad Paisley's song. No disrespect to him-I've been sick lately and I think it was all catching up with me.
    I thought Miranda Lambert's song, "The House That Built Me", was the stand out performance of the night. Has anyone heard this song? It made me cry-the lyrics and melody are so lovely.
    I also enjoyed Lady Antebellem a lot-I was happy to see them win their awards-very deserving!

    I thought it was a great show. I really enjoyed Miranda's song and also Carrie Underwood's Temporary Home. Both of those girls can really, really sing and had me in tears, too.

    Love, love Lady Antebellum and am glad they did so well.

    I was disappointed with Keith Urban's video/live performance. I would have much rather seen it live.

    I'm also glad Taylor Swift didn't win anything. I'm just so sick of her. Sorry Taylor fans, just my opinion.

    I wish Brooks & Dunn would have played a different farewell song than My Maria, but the fans voted, so......? But why would you want them to do a cover song as a farewell? Oh well!

    So, Carrie Underwood took Entertainer of the Year for the second straight year?

    She's good. And it looks as though she is really riding the wave right now when she is so popular. Hope she doesn't burn herself out!

    Yes, Carrie U is the Entertainer of the Year again. She's definitely got a lot going on! I wasn't sure she could hold up her left hand with that huge rock on it!

    Her voice is just amazing. I think she's right up there with Martina McBride. Those are two little ladies with great big voices. And their range is fantastic.

    I remember when Carrie was on American Idol she did Independence Day one week. She did it well.

    Carrie certainly is an American Idol success story!

    So Brooks and Dunn are breaking up? That's too bad. I really liked them back in the nineties.

    I read about this show after the fact...sounds like it was an entertaining show. Wish I had seen it! I think I heard that Carrie's cell phone rang during her acceptance speech...true? What was that all about, anyone who saw it?

    It didn't ring, but she said it buzzed her while she was talking. Too funny!

    Brooke, I couldn't watch it as you know... what do you mean? Why were you disappointed?
