2014 CMT Awards

If you expected the 2014 CMT Music Awards to start with anything but a bang, you thought wrong! Luke Bryan and Florida Georgia Line kicked off one of country music's biggest nights -- and they brought a few friends.

The Band Perry was an early winner at the 2014 CMT Music Awards, nabbing Group Video of the Year for their up-tempo song 'Done.' But Florida Georgia Line were the big winners, taking home two belt buckles.

Carrie Underwood walked away with the coveted CMT Video of the Year belt buckle for her 'See You Again' video at the 2014 CMT Awards.

Little Big Town's debut performance of 'Day Drinking' started off tame enough ... but anyone who is a fan of the country supergroup knows that they are anything but. The performance that ended with the all four singers completely covered in paint.

Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood brought their girl power to the stage once again, and we have to say, 'Something Bad' was one of our favorite performances of the 2014 CMT Music Awards.

The 2014 CMT Awards featured Eric Church at his rebel-rousing best -- with a little help from one powerful woman. Not only did the Church give a sharp-as-nails performance of his new song, 'That's Damn Rock & Roll,' he also brought along Lzzy Hale from the hard-rock band, Halestrom, to add even more grit to the performance.

Luke Bryan proved that 'Play It Again' just gets better when it's played again and again ... and again. He brought his hit to the 2014 CMT Music Awards and, as always, the crowd reacted like they just wanted him to play it again.

LeeAnn Womack and Kacey Musgraves teamed up at the 2014 CMT Music Awards to pay tribute to country legend Alan Jackson.

Barefoot and buckwild; that's how Jake Owen rolls. And that's how he sang 'Beachin'' at the 2014 CMT Music Awards.
