· Fashion: Positioned in the paparazzi pit where everyone stops for their must-have, Red Carpet photo, Miss Tennessee 2013 Brenna Mader offers fashion commentary about the night's biggest surprises and trends.

· The JCPenney Director's Cut: The CMA Backstage team switches between live feeds to direct viewers to must see moments from the seven camera positions on the Red Carpet.

Once the live Awards broadcast begins at 8:00 p.m., ET, the "CMA Awards Backstage" kicks into high gear. Feeds include:

· The Brad & Carrie Cam: All new this year, returning hosts and Country Music superstars Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood will share their thoughts and reactions to the night's biggest moments from performances to the evening's winners.

· JCPenney Director's Cut: Peeples and Sutton will talk to the winners, presenters and performers from the JCPenney Lounge while Mader will report in on what's trending in the Social Hub.
