With another year's tribute to the best in country music having come to a close, the winners of the 2011 CMT Music Awards were named in Nashville, Tennessee on Wednesday night (June 8).
The Kid Rock hosted event - which was held at Bridgestone Arena - saw Taylor Swift take home the top honor of Video of the Year for "Mine," which was voted on by fans.
They’re no strangers to the stage, and earlier today (July 9) Crystal Bowersox and Lee DeWyze performed on “Good Morning America” as part of the Summer Concert Series.
The “American Idol” alums looked excited as they took the stage along with the rest of the American Idols Live! Tour at Rumsey Playfield in Central Park, New York City.
Continuing on his triumphant media promotional tour, Lee DeWyze was spotted at ABC Studios in New York City today (June 1).
With runner-up Crystal Bowerson also on-hand, the “American Idol” pair looked to be in good spirits as they arrived to appear and perform on “Live with Regis & Kelly.”
She sure has had a crazy past couple of weeks, and in the midst of all the “American Idol” hoopla, Crystal Bowersox faced a break-up with her hometown boyfriend.
Opening up to Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS-FM radio show, the “Idol” runner-up revealed, “[My boyfriend] Tony, he went home. He wasn’t cool with the lifestyle.”
Making for quite the surprise ending, Lee DeWyze was crowned as the winner of the ninth season of "American Idol".
With the results show taking place on Wednesday night (May 26), the 24-year-old Illinois native topped Ohioan Crystal Bowersox during a two-hour special.
