Off the Air With Jeremy: ACM Awards
I'm bored with country award shows. They seem to be less about awards now, and more about more obvious, "cooler" stars than what we have in country music.

Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott was glowing as she showed off her baby bump at the ACM Awards in Las Vegas. Not only did she impress on the red carpet, she also got her picutre taken with one of her musical heroes, Reba McEntire.
Keith Urban presented the Female Vocalist of the Year award to the dazzling Miranda Lambert at the 2013 ACMs, and she was completely surprised by the win. "I thought for sure Carrie had it this year, and she damn well deserves it!" she said as she took the stage... and broke into tears.
Blake Shelton and Luke Bryan will be hosting this Sunday's ACM Awards show on CBS. In this supposed behind the scenes look, Blake pokes a few jabs at Luke over his lack of experience and "pretty boy" looks. Check out the video.
Did you see the strange light in the sky Friday night? People from Florida to New England saw a decent-sized meteor burn up in the atmosphere. It wasn't nearly as big as the one that exploded over Russia last month.
Country superstar Reba McEntire is one of the most successful female performers in country music history. Her long and varied career will be celebrated in an upcoming exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville titled 'Reba: All the Woman I Am.'

Have you heard of the 'Sixty For Sixty' campaign? It's a push to make GEORGE STRAIT get his 60th #1 single while he's still 60 years old.

Several celebrities have banned together to help put the King of Country into a category all his own.
We have been so caught up in the excitement of announcing the great musical guests for our 25th annual Wild West Frogfest and Rodeo that we may not have given the "rodeo" portion of the event its just due. That's about to change! The wildly popular Painted Pony Rodeo will be making it 3rd appearance at Frogfest and it promises to better then ever. What kind of rodeo events can you expect to see?
'A' is for Alabama ... or is it for Aldean, Allan or Autry? 'B' could be for Brooks, but what about Brooks and Dunn, Black or the Bellamy Brothers? This list of 26 country superstars decides who the king or queen of each letter of the alphabet is. A few are easy (can anyone name two 'Q' artists?), but others like the letter 'C' ... that's a debate that is only beginning.
As one of the reigning kings of country music, George Strait has scored 59 No. 1 hit singles during his illustrious his career. That's why it's not surprising that the Country Radio Hall of Fame honored Strait with a Career Achievement Award at Tuesday's (Feb. 28) ceremony.
