A much- requested shot: Bucky Covington has lots to smile about in this fun portrait taken by the very kind Hildi. Thanks so much for everything, Hildi!Congrat- ulations to Bucky Covington on his presenting gig and nomination for the second annual CMT Online Awards, which will be presented online (naturally!) at CMT.com on February 5th. From the show's site:
CMT invites you to ride the digital wave with the second annual CMT Online Awards -- the groundbreaking, irreverent, one-of-a-kind celebration of Internet excellence. We've tallied your favorite CMT.com artists, shows, music videos and user-generated clips and plan to give them the respect they deserve. Enjoy special guest appearances, crazy award categories and the best country video clips on the Internet. Hosted by Taylor Swift, special guest stars include Kellie Picker, Bucky Covington, Blake Shelton, Miranda Lambert, Josh Turner and Dolly Parton.
Bucky's been nominated in the No. 1 Streamed Video by a New Artist category for his sunlit "A Different World" clip (see the full list of nominees here), and CMT-TV will air a "Nominees Report" on Wed., Jan. 30 at 9:00 ET/PT. (As far as I can tell, there's no voting on this one, y'all--just sit back, relax and watch the show.) The show also has a message board at CMT.com--I couldn't resist starting a congratulations thread for Bucky. Feel free to hop in and give him a cheer or two...
We'll have more details for you soon--stay tuned. Way to go, Bucky!--Winnie
Thanks for the heads up on this. I posted at the message board..this looks like lots of fun.
