Jessica Simpson is loving the CMA Music Festival! On Thursday night she hit the stage to perform her single "Come on Over" and Friday morning she was up bright and early to sign some autographs for the brand new country darling Jess fans. People were apparently lined around the block early in the morning for a photo with Miss Simpson. Even with Tony off in San Diego playing golf with JT, Jessica couldn't wipe that smile off her face. Aww.

Jess Takes the CMA Festival Stage With Fellow Country Stars

Molly — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 08:57:46 -0700

Jessica Simpson stepped up to the mic along with some of country music's biggest names to help kick off the 2008 CMA Music Festival in Nashville last night. Of course, Jess is no stranger to the stage, but there have to be some big-time nerves showcasing her new material to an audience who already has lots of preconceived notions about her. Considering the warm reception you all gave "Come on Over," hopefully it all went over great. Either way, she did it with a big old smile on her face, as did fellow blonde performers like Kellie Pickler, Jewel, and Taylor Swift. Jess will be taking her show to The View on June 25, which is just the beginning of promotion for the new album. Looks like we better get used to Jessica Simpson: country darling.

To see more of the event including Rascal Flatts, Sugarland, Taylor Swift, Storme Warren, and others, just read more.

Carrie Underwood slipped into uniform and stepped up to the plate alongside some of her fellow country stars for the 18th annual City of Hope Celebrity Softball Challenge on Wednesday. She played tough before the game, saying, "I’ve got a lot of practice with a bat one way or another the last couple years." Unfortunately, Carrie's confidence wasn't enough to lead her team to victory, but she still looked cute as a button running the bases. Tonight we'll get to see her flex her more famous muscles - those vocal cords - singing at the 2008 CMA Music Festival in Nashville.
