2009 CMA Red Carpet Report Card

Carrie Underwood
Grade: A+
The blond bombshell reigned supreme in a spaghetti-strapped sparkler at the 43rd annual CMA Awards in Nashville, Tennessee.

 

Taylor Swift
Grade: A
Following in Carrie's footsteps was country's teen queen, who wore a flowing gold gown, which featured an impeccably embellished bodice.

 

LeAnn Rimes
Grade: D
Eddie Cibrian's latest love vamped it up in a heavenly white dress, which was unfortunately overshadowed by her goth-inspired eye makeup and fingernail polish.

 

Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman
Grade: A-
The Aussie hunk sported a typically casual look (and a chest tattoo), while his wax-figurine-like wife rocked a beaded red beauty.

 

Reba McEntire
Grade: A-
The fiery redhead set hearts afire in a sequined stunner.

 

Michelle Branch
Grade: B
The Grammy winner successfully accessorized her turquoise cocktail frock with a statement necklace, purple pumps, and spiky clutch.

 

Jessica Harp
Grade: C-
Michelle Branch's former bandmate (The Wreckers) also opted to wear a shade of blue-green. Unfortunately, her frock was ill-fitting and her locks were out of control.

 

Diana DeGarmo
Grade: F
Meanwhile, "Idol's" Season 3 runner-up failed in a hot pink prom bomb and gold hoof-like heels.

 

Martina McBride
Grade: D+
The Female Vocalist of the Year nominee failed to impress in a bejeweled curtain-like catastrophe and tired tresses.

 

Whitney Duncan
Grade: B-
The 2007 "Nashville Star" finalist would have earned a better grade had she shown a little less leg and toned down her feathered mane.

 

Patricia Heaton
Grade: C-
The former "Everybody Loves Raymond" star attempted to strut her surgically-enhanced stuff in an age-inappropriate maroon mini and putrid peep-toes.
