As most everyone knows, I just got back from the ACM's (Academy of Country Music Awards) in Vegas on Monday! It was an absolute blast, there are not enough words to describe how fun it was. The first day was pretty laid back, and we had a welcome orientation, and listened to some songs from Emily West (she has an amazing voice, check her out!). Friday we did the morning show, I say "we" like I actually was on air, I just googled stuff, and checked out different artist's Twitter. My job was super important, don't be fooled :) At noon, we started the interviews which was so much fun. Later that night we had a meeting with Reba... yep, I said it, Reba McEntire. She is one of the funniest people ever, and so down to earth. I love when people are down to earth, even when they have sold a million albums. That night, the girls (TJ, Coco, & Cadie) flew in and we hung around the hotel bar for a while then called it a night. Oh, and I learned how to play Blackjack and Roulette! I gambled $10 bucks of Zeke's money, then won him maybe $30.
So Saturday, we did a full day of interviews, my favorite of course, Taylor Swift! Coco and I were doing a mini-webisode when she walked by, she noticed and jumped in. She's kinda my favorite.
Then we met Carrie Underwood, she's another favorite!
Later that night we went to Zac Brown's party, Toby Keith's, then back to the hotel bar. Our cab rides were always entertaining, we have some fantastic video clips of Coco explaining her life story to the drivers. I can't make this stuff up.
Anyway, Sunday TJ gets a text from John Rich to come hang out, so we go hang out at his suite for a few hours. His suite was amazing!

Crown Royal Jacket
You could see everything from this deck! And we met his new bodyguard, the country angel of death, Six. He's actually super cool, but I would not mess with this guy, like ever... He's like 7 feet tall, no joke. John let me try on his Crown Royal jacket, made by Granny Rich. Not gonna lie, it was pretty awesome. So then John checks his phone, "Oh hey guys, I got you 4 tickets for tonight"... wait, what? Did he just say that? Yeah, he just said we were going to the ACM's. I love John. He's another one of my favorites. Being the girls we are, we got all giddy and had to run downstairs to start getting ready (which I think we did in record time, by the way). Then off to the ACM's! We didn't walk the orange carpet, we weren't cool enough for that, but whatever, it was still fun ;-)
I'm sitting in this auditorium looking around, trying to take everything in, and who walks by? Oh, Bruce and Kris Jenner, from "Keeping Up with the Kardashians"! I LOVE LOVE LOVE that show! She is absolutely stunning in person. The whole time I'm watching the awards, I'm thinking, "Holy cow, my life is seriously amazing", I knew my life was awesome, but wow! After the show, we went to the Capitol afterparty, where we met... (are you ready for this?) NICOLE KIDMAN! Yes, Nicole Kidman! She is gorgeous in person, and absolutely flawless. And what did I ask her? "Can you still twitch your nose like you did in 'Bewitched'?" Yeah, I really asked that. Why? I have no idea. It was one of those things where if I could grab it back and hit the delete button, I would have. Thankfully she thought it was funny, she laughed, attempted the nose twitch and said, "I guess I'm out of practice!" and laughed again. So I left real fast after that. Before I even left for Vegas I had said it will be icing on the cake if I get to meet Keith Urban. Well I did, and he's amazing. Seeing those two together, you can totally see how much they love each other. It's adorable. We ran into Trace Adkins, Darius Rucker, and the Little Big Town gang. I love them all. Then the gang headed up to a party at the Skybox Loft, which was really cool. Being on the 27th floor and getting to see the city all lit up was beautiful. I love city lights. Last party of the night, we headed to John Rich's After AFTER party. The next morning, the girls flew back home, and Zeke and I caught our flight at 2:30. What a weekend. Seriously amazing. And no, I didn't mean to make this post the length of a book, but hopefully you had a laugh while reading it! If you want to see ALL the pics from the ACM's, click on the slideshow!
I can see why people can get addicted to blogging...
