It wouldn’t be a proper night of country music celebration without Keith Urban, 47! The American Idol judge totally killed it on stage during his performance in Nashville, Tennessee at the CMT Awards on June 10. His brand new single is so good that it just may turn into the official summer anthem of 2015 — don’t you agree?! We have the lowdown on Keith’s super sexy CMT Awards performance below!
Keith rocked out on stage and the crowd was definitely having a great time during his fun performance! Not only did he sound great, but he looked smokin’ hot in front of that red backdrop — Nicole Kidman is one lucky girl!
Keith debuted his single the morning before on country music stations and the response was overwhelmingly positive! Fans, like the one below, rushed to Twitter to express their love for the song.

“’John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16’ was sent to me a few months ago by one of the songwriters, and I loved it immediately,” Keith told CMT.com about his new single. “Loved it so much that right before I walked out onstage at the Ryman for CRS a few months back, I thought I’d play the song solo acoustic to see what the audience thought. Flash forward, and there’s no doubt that their response that day helped make it the first single from what will be my next album.”
