The 2016 CMT Music Awards were one heck of a party in downtown Nashville. Country's biggest names came to play along with athletes, artists from other genres and even Doug the Pug!
The CMT Music Awards are one of the summer's most fun TV events for country music. This year, stars showed up on the pink — not red — carpet looking casual, yet stylish and ready for a fun night of music.
Some of country's biggest stars have been announced as performers at the 2016 CMT Music Awards, including Luke Bryan, Chris Stapleton and Blake Shelton.
