"Aside from the lack of blow-dry bars in Nashville, this is one cool and happening city&amp;amp;#8212;and last night was no exception. Nashville&amp;#x27;s resident hunk with a secret, Chris Carmack (a.k.a. Will) was my red-carpet co-host for the CMA Awards, and we got into all sorts of trouble here in Music City. Take a look at what went down! Earlier in the day, I paid a visit to Willie Nelson&amp;#x27;s General Store to pick up some barbecue sauce (for all the extra ribs that Chris and I didn&amp;#x27;t finish at dinner the previous night&amp;amp;#8212;if you&amp;#x27;re in Nashville, hit up the Southern!) and my pink cowboy hat you saw in previous photos. I seriously love this place. You all should know that Chris walked the entire quarter mile of fans lined up outside the Bridgestone to sign autographs, chat, and take pictures. As far as I know, no one else did that, and the fans were beyond happy. That&amp;#x27;s what we call a Glamour Do. Chris making the rounds prior to joining me on the carpet My favorite photo of the night! The adorable Stella Sisters (Lennon and Maisy) with Chris. Watching the sassy Maisy banter with Chris was the funniest thing I have ever seen, especially when he assumed she was eight years old and she put him in his place by explaining that she was going to be 10 next month. Sam Palladio made a beeline for Chris when he spotted him with me on the carpet. Let&amp;#x27;s just say that these two should have their own spin-off called The Gunnar and Will Show. By the way, in case you missed our red carpet craziness, watch this: It was like Disney&amp;#x27;s Light Parade took over the house. I sat with the Nashville cast, including The Goldbergs&amp;#x27; flashy teen daughter, Hayley Orrantia, and Nashville&amp;#x27;s Chaley Rose and Derek Krantz. Taylor Swift accepting the Pinnacle Award during the show. After the show, Taylor danced in the aisles for a good 5 to 10 minutes while Darius Rucker closed out the show. Nashville&amp;#x27;s Jonathan Jackson (pictured with his lovely wife) arrived halfway through the show since he and Clare Bowen were still taping scenes late into the evening. All the women in the house went nuts when Tim McGraw took the stage. Backstage postshow at the Bridgestone Arena The cupcake tower at the Sony after-party. I might have taken three. We. Are. Exhausted. 1 A.M. Time to go home! By the way, in case you haven&amp;#x27;t seen it yet, check out this incredible video of Chris performing at the Grand Ole Opry. Aside from his massive talent as an actor, someone needs to sign him to a recording deal stat. In the meantime, you guys can follow him on Twitter here. One last photo from our memorable night! Thank you again to CC (the actor-musician, not the beauty cream), for being such an awesome cohost and all-around great guy. We seriously had the best time. Hopefully, if you guys encourage him enough, he&amp;#x27;ll come back with me for more fun on the carpet. Which pic is your fave? And what would you like to see happen for Chris&amp;#x27; character on Nashville? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
