How bad did the Okies do at the Academy of Country Music Awards?

8:00 AM EDT on April 9, 2013

On Sunday night, The Academy of Country Music Awards (Editor's note: The Red State Grammys) aired and as usual, our very own Oklahoma country stars cleaned it up. Would you expect anything less? Oklahomans and country music are like peas and carrots, jazz and liquor, and hysterical gay men and #nowthatcherisdead.

Oklahoma's very own Blake Shelton co-hosted with Luke Bryan. You've probably heard of one of them. Although I prefer my openers to involve musical numbers about parts of the female anatomy, I'll give credit where credit is due. Blake has really, really got that whole naughty-bashful-handsome-charming-boy next door shtick down to an art! Sure, the routine might only work on the 40+ crowd, but well, that also makes up the majority of people who still buy CDs and watch The Voice. Move over Garth and Toby, our much less annoying boy Blake is a bonafide star! Check out the opening below:
