The second annual ‘CMA Country Christmas’ special opened with host Jennifer Nettles wearing sequins, ruffles and tails. The well dressed country starlet looked glamorous backed by a dashing dance troupe swinging candy cane striped canes in perfect harmony as she sang ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You.’
Jennifer Nettles admits that 2011 has been a “tumultuous” year for Sugarland, and hints that it will be some time before she and partner Kristian Bush make their next move. After winning a fifth consecutive Vocal Duo of the Year award at Wednesday night’s CMA Awards, Nettles talked about the group’s future to reporters backstage.
When country’s finest return to Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena to film this year’s ‘CMA Country Christmas’ special on November 10, there will be some familiar faces on stage — starting with the event’s host.
As she did last year, Sugarland‘s Jennifer Nettles will emcee the evening, which finds country stars sharing personal stories and performing some of their favorite holiday songs.
In one of the most highly anticipated performances of the night, Sugarland's Kristian Bush stepped back as a duet partner and introduced Jennifer Nettles and urban artist Rihanna. The pair sang "California King Bed."
