For the past 10 years, Carrie Underwood has talked, joked and sang her way into the hearts of millions as the co-host of the annual CMA Awards. Sharing duties with pal Brad Paisley, she says it’s tough for her to pick specific moments out as a host, saying all of the moments with Brad are wonderful, even though it’s a lot of work being at the helm of the show.

“Our planning time is, it’s a lot of work and it can be stressful, but it’s also fun too getting in the room with Brad and the writers and we’re just kind of swapping ideas – some good, some bad,” she says with a laugh. “But we’re all working together to put on the show, and we want to be respectful and we want to celebrate Country Music, that’s what we’re there for, but I don’t know if I could pick one moment that’s my all-time favorite moment ever.”

However, the Oklahoma native, who cannot believe she and Brad have been hosting the awards for 10 years, says one moment last year did stand out.

“Looking back, we’ve had so many bits and jokes and things like that, but I think my favorite parts of the whole thing are the things that that we get to be involved in that people don’t see,” says Carrie. “You know, like looking back, especially on the 50th Anniversary – that was so amazing being part of that open and kind of having that rehearsal band with my band and Brad’s band and all these legendary artists seeing them all come together and work together and they were swapping stories and laughing with each other because there were so many of them that haven’t seen each other in forever either so, it was just an amazing moment to be a part of. I’d say that’s way high up there on my list of favorite moments for the CMAs.”

In addition to the performances, many people tune in to watch the CMA Awards just so they can see what Carrie is wearing and how many outfit changes she will make over the course of the three-hour show.

“When I’m trying to make CMA dress decisions, I just want what makes me feel good. That’s it. There’s no ulterior motives or anything. I don’t have a plan when I go in. I just try on a bunch of dresses and I just want to wear what makes me feel good. I feel like as women, that’s just what we do – something that makes us feel confident and be our best selves,” she says. “If I find two dresses that I love, then I’ll be wearing two dresses to the CMAs. If I find 12, I’m gonna try to wear all 12, [laughs] so that’s kind of how we operate. But it’s fun. I’m running around backstage like a mad person for quick changes and things like that, but it kind of just adds this element to the CMAs.”
