Meghan Linsey

Country music awards show typically offer something interesting on the red carpet, and the 2015 CMT Music Awards were no exception.

It's been a scorching-hot summer so far in Nashville, and our favorite country stars are matching the weather, serving up something sizzling on the red carpet of the 2015 CMT Music Awards.

The Voice's Season 8 runner-up, Meghan Linsey, first got her start in music as one-half of the country duo Steel Magnolia, with her then-fiance, Joshua Scott Jones. After Jones entered rehab in 2011 to deal with his addiction issues, their professional and personal partnerships both ended, with each of them focusing on solo careers. But while they are no longer romantically involved, Linsey says that Jones is still very much in her corner.

The Voice's Season 8 finale on Tuesday night (May 19) was a star-studded event that included appearances from numerous major artists, Kelly Clarkson among them. The country-pop singer took the stage with Meghan Linsey to perform Clarkson's new single, "Invincible."
