See what I mean from the list? BIG DEAL. Plus, she’s 19, and writes her own songs, and designed her whole tour.

Carrie Underwood singing Cowboy Cassanova in some downright short shorts. It’s ok, she wears them for me all the time

P.S. Lots of jabs at Kanye tonight….I wonder if we’ll hear about it in the morning on all of those blogs. Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood were hilarious once again as emcees…

WATCH THEIR OPENING BELOW.…haha and please don’t take their Kanye jab too seriously, they’re just protecting country music’s baby girl.

A few notes for those non-country music lovers–so that the video makes more sense:

George Strait is a country music hall of fame artist —the grand uncle of country.

Brooks and Dunn is a famous country duo that is breaking up this year—Sugarland is another great duo, not breaking up this year, who is next in line for the country music duo crown.

“D.I.V.O.R.C.E” is a song by Tammy Wynett

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill both have perfumes out in stores

Props to the title of this post goes out to my roommate.

So, I guess we all have to have faith that everything will work itself out.

After Kanye’s rant…BEYONCE WINS VIDEO OF THE YEAR

How’s that for a foot in your mouth Kanye?

Then Beyonce brings Taylor back on stage…classy women make the world go round.

Check out the bottle of booze he's holding

On a side note, I wonder how Kanye treats Amber Rose.

Oh, and in case you’re interested, it is 10pm, and the incident is already logged on Taylor Swift’s Wikipedia page.
