Carrie Underwood and John Legend won video of the year at Wednesday’s CMT Music Awards for their song “Hallelujah,” from her Christmas album last year. “Congratulations on what I think is your first CMT Award!” a grateful Underwood told an absent Legend, correctly surmising that fact perhaps just from the limited amount of country songs that her duet partner has participated in so far.
The cross-genre spirit of that song carried through to the performances on the show, with the collaborative numbers including H.E.R. performing with Chris Stapleton, Gladys Knight being joined by Mickey Guyton and Breland, Kelsea Ballerini joining forces with Lany’s Paul Jason Klein, and Underwood herself teaming up with the band Needtobreathe.
