How do you convince a skeptical country audience that you're country? You get Vince Gill to sing and play guitar on your first true country single. That's what Kelly Clarkson did with 'Don't Rush,' a song she'll perform at the CMA Awards on Nov. 1. The pairing is magic.
Kelly Clarkson has enjoyed a few hit duets in the country music field already, and soon, she'll add Vince Gill to her roster. The track listing for the first 'American Idol' winner's upcoming album, 'Greatest Hits -- Chapter 1,' has been released, and tucked alongside her pop hits is a sweet duet with Gill titled 'Don't Rush.'
The performers for the 2012 CMA Awards have been announced, and the list contains some of the biggest names in country music today. The 46th Annual CMA Awards will broadcast live from Nashville on Nov. 1 at 8PM ET on ABC, hosted once again by Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood.
Kelly Clarkson continues to inch closer to becoming a bona fide country music superstar, recently announcing plans to claim full-time residency in Nashville. Despite her allegiance to the Lone Star State, the current CMA Awards nominee has placed her Texas estate on the market, and is currently in the process of finding a home in Music City.
Well all know Kelly Clarkson is a country fan — and apparently her ‘Duets‘ partner, Jordan Meredith, is as well! In week three of competition, the two big-voiced singers chose to perform Miranda Lambert‘s ‘Mama’s Broken Heart,’ a fan favorite from the country singer’s latest chart-topping record, ‘Four the Record.’
