    Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow ‘Collide’ Onstage at 2011 CMT Music Awards

    2011 CMT Awards host Kid Rock handles the gig in a way where he doesn’t take himself too seriously. That’s probably why he is so effective at steering this ship and was brought back for a second year. The singer earned his keep, though, pulling double duty by performing ‘Collide’ with Sheryl Crow, in what was a quiet, tender moment smack dab in the middle of the show.

    Up until this point, the CMT Awards had been upbeat and twangy, but Kid Rock and Crow turned the tables a bit and dosed the show with a sensitive duet. The twosome will spend the summer touring together, so maybe this performance will serve as a pre-amble of things to come on the road!

    The pair sat perched atop stools on the stage, turned into each other. Kid Rock wore a backwards trucker cap and jeans, while the leggy Crow looked fresh in a crisp white shirt. It’s their opposite looks and styles that make their duets so compelling and believable. They enjoy that whole yin and yang thing when they perform. Both have toed the line in multiple genres throughout their careers, with Kid Rock trafficking in rap, rock and country, and Crow pogo-ing between rock, country, pop or some variation of the three … and that’s why we can’t look away when they ‘Collide.’

So what you saw a nano second of her underwear. I'm sure it was hard for her to get off the stool, she tried to be ladylike. Get over it. I've seen worst on the streets.

I truly wish that you two would just get it over with and get married. The chemistry that you and Sheryl have is hard to find and it would be a blessing! Even though there would be many hearts broken all over the world! You looked like you were having the time of your life last night. By the way it was sexy that Sheryl had a Sharon Stone moment! Have a wonderful day! Peace to you and your family!

Love Kid Rock hosting. I watched it streaming live on CMT.com because I don't have the CMT channel. The entrance was GREAT. It was like "kiss my ass" if you don't think I do country...I'll show you! AND HE DID! Justin Bieber...one word...YUCK! Talk about someone who isn't "country"

TOTALLY ENJOYED watching you host the CMT's last night....did you pick up those panties???? Though it was sad that Sheryl had to apologize for ppl. tweeting they saw her panties when she got off stool to slow dance with you...I didn't see her panties....all those tweets were jealous women!! Keep putting out the music....Love any and all of it!!
