Country Music at the Grammys

Country Music had a huge night at the 53rd annual Grammy Awards this past Sunday. Check out some behind-the-scenes quotes from some of your favorite country music artists had to say!

"Oh my gosh, we were so stunned we started walking the wrong direction." — Hillary Scott of Lady Antebellum as they accepted the group's third Grammy
"Right before it went to No. 1, he asked if he could have it back, but it was a little too late." — Miranda Lambert on "The House That Built Me," which was originally pitched to fiancĂ© Blake Shelton
"I ate a lot of fried chicken over the holidays. So, I'm cutting back on that a little bit, but man, it's going to be hard to curb the drinking. There's too much celebrating. So, I won't be backing down on that at all." — Lady Antebellum's Charles Kelley
"No. 3: Lady Antebellum and Lady Gaga form supergroup Lady Antegagum." — from David Letterman's "Top 10 Surprises at the Grammy Awards"
"This is our drummer. He couldn't make it out here for this weekend. It's become a tradition. We won Best New Artist last year and I wasn't eligible to come up on the stage, so they made a stick figure of me when they went up." — Zac Brown Band's Clay Cook explaining the stick figure of ZBB's drummer Chris Fryar he was holding backstage
"Blake doesn't listen to prompters or me or anybody else. He goes with the flow, so they were brave to let him present me." — Miranda Lambert on Shelton introducing her performance
"I was real honored when Zac asked me to be on this record. You know, it's pretty cool when a few of us Georgia boys can end up winning a Grammy out in L.A." — Alan Jackson on winning Country Collaboration with ZBB for "As She's Walking Away"
