Miranda Lambert Out-FOX-es Blake Shelton

Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton have been no strangers to the small screen lately. Blake took a turn at co-hosting the 'Today Show' with Hoda Kotb last week, while Miranda appeared on 'Good Morning America' on Wednesday (September 1) -- joined by Dierks Bentley -- to announce the nominees for the 2010 CMA Awards. Miranda got a record-setting nine nods (the most ever in one year for a female artist), while fiancé Blake received three. The couple are competing against each other in three different categories.

Life continues to be a roller-coaster ride for country's lovebirds as their busy careers keep them hopping from one venue to the next. Both appear to have their priorities in order when it comes to their careers, and Blake doesn't seem to mind at all that Miranda's profile as a "rock star" is on the rise.

"I won't lie," Blake told the Toledo Blade as he was making his way out of the NBC studios. "I think it's cool that she's a rock star. She's Miranda Lambert on stage, but she's also my girlfriend. But that's not what keeps us together. It's the fact that I know she's at home right now, and I'm getting ready to get on an airplane and fly there and be with her. I can honestly say I'm looking forward to that time with her more than being on an awards show or anything else."

"She's blowing up," Blake continued. "I don't think we've seen the tip of the iceberg as far as how popular she's going to get. I'm an old man. I'm ready to quit and let her take care of me."

Miranda proves she can keep up with Blake when it comes to joking around with the press, telling OK! magazine recently that Blake has an affinity for the "hot girls" on FOX News. "Blake likes to push buttons, but my buttons are unpushable with him," she said with a laugh. "I move right on past it. Yeah, he does have a huge crush on FOX News though. I [said], 'Why are you always watching the news?' And then I watched it one day, and I was like, 'Ohh, I get it.'"

Miranda needn't worry, though. Blake tells The Boot he's looking forward to their wedding, which will reportedly happen in May 2011: "Miranda told me she wants me to be comfortable. She said, 'I want you to wear your blue jeans and boots, and we'll find you a cool jacket,' which shocked the hell out of me."

To catch the excitement and see how many CMA awards Miranda and Blake might take home (plus how the other nominees fare), watch the 44th Annual Country Music Association Awards airing live from Nashville on November 10.
