Reba Gets Big Laughs at ACM Awards

Reba McEntire is certainly proving why she's been asked to host the ACM Awards eleven times! The country icon always gets big laughs. Here are some of our favorite Reba quotes from the show.

"Seems like everyone wants to cut a country album nowadays. Even Michael Phelps and Willie Nelson are teaming up to do an album. They're covering the Doobie Brothers!"

"Our first nominee is George Strait. George has sold over 62 million albums, which puts him in the same class as Elton John. That's the first time I've ever said straight and Elton John in the same sentence."

"I toured with Brad [Paisley] -- he's a good kisser. Alright, who's running the teleprompter back there?"

"Carrie [Underwood] and I share a lot in common. She's from Oklahoma. I'm from Oklahoma. She's nominated for Entertainer of the Year. I've been nominated for Entertainer of the Year. She's 26 years old ... I'm from Oklahoma."

"Some things are just meant to be together: ham and eggs, surf and sand, George Clooney and me."

I was so happy to see Trace Atkins get the award for "Your Going to Miss This."Any parent that has a daughter have heard these words in the song. I am disappointed that Keith Urban did not recieve best male vocalis even entertainer of the year. Since his return after rehab award shows are treating him unfair. Him and Nichole looked great together and happy. I checked one of the polls, the one fr CBS andKeith had over 90% of the fan votes , so why didn't he get it! What happened to Tim McGraw, I thought he was suppose to appear.
