00:00All right, I am here with Carly Pierce, and you are hosting for the fifth year in a row.
00:05Congratulations.
00:07Do you have any advice for Russell Dickerson, your co-host?
00:11He doesn't need any advice.
00:12He is the life of the party.
00:14We have been really good friends for years, so I honestly just feel like if he,
00:18which I know he will, I don't even, I don't need to say if.
00:21He's going to bring it, and he's going to be an awesome co-host.
00:24He seems very excited.
00:25I just chatted with him, and he's very, I think he feels very lucky to be hosting with a friend.
00:29Oh, same.
00:30That's really cool.
00:31Yeah, it's very special.
00:32So what do you like best about hosting, and what is it that keeps you coming back year after year?
00:36I feel like this award show has become my baby.
00:39I feel really precious with the music industry and the country music family,
00:46not just the artists on stage.
00:48Obviously, that's a big part of it, but honoring the people behind the scenes,
00:51I feel very, very, I feel like we have to do that because there are so many people
00:55that make our career go around that people never see, or the champions, or all the things.
00:59And honestly, I'm really enjoying hosting.
01:03I feel like it gives me a challenge.
01:06It's always something that I've wanted to do, and to be able to do this for five years,
01:08and kind of like, at this point, it feels like a little bit of my ownership in it.
01:13I really take it seriously, and I'm having a great time.
01:16Well, you're really good at it.
01:17You're very natural up there, which I think is,
01:19it's cool that you get to lean into a whole different chapter of success for yourself.
01:23Same.
01:23I think so.
01:24Yeah.
01:25Okay, so you just got a new tattoo, I hear.
01:28I did.
01:28Can you tell us about it?
01:30I got a matching tattoo with my band.
01:32And we got little horses because we're show ponies.
01:36And 6133 is our bus number, so.
01:38Oh, I love that.
01:40Very special.
01:41Also, I see you have a hummingbird.
01:43I do.
01:43I have a hummingbird and 29 and the Grand Ole Opry.
01:46So I'm just, I kind of am, like, tatted up now.
01:49I love it.
01:49You know what, I noticed the hummingbird because that's one of my angel signs.
01:52And so you're my angel sign for the day.
01:55I love that.
01:56I believe in that.
01:57I believe in Godwinks for sure.
01:58Godwinks.
01:59That's exactly it.
02:00So, anyways, thanks for being my Godwink for the day.
02:03Okay, you and Jordan Davis recorded a duet, Mess With Missing You, for his new album.
02:08Can you tell me about that song and also your friendship?
02:11He's another one that I've been friends with for over a decade.
02:13And he and I wanted to sing it together for a really long time.
02:18And he sent me this song, and it's such a big song.
02:21Like, Jordan knows how to write a hit song, and I feel so lucky to get to have this song with him.
02:25And it's a very relatable song, and it's, I think, going to be a big one for us.
02:30So I'm excited.
02:31Wow.
02:32I have a good feeling.
02:33You have a good feeling.
02:34You know, and that intuition, I feel like, is usually pretty spot on.
02:37I feel really good about it.
02:38Well, I can't wait to hear it.
02:39Congratulations, and have so much fun tonight.
02:41Thank you so much.
