Lauren Alaina and Jon Pardi commanded the stage with their current single at the 2021 CMT Music Awards.
Live from Harlinsdale Farm, the country superstars gave the television debut of their collaborative hit, “Getting Over Him,” on Wednesday, June 9 during the annual awards show.
“I am performing ‘Getting Over Him’ with Jon Pardi, it’s our current single at country radio. We’re very excited! It’s a really fun song, he’s really fun, I’m gonna try to be fun and we’ll all have fun together,” Alaina said ahead of her performance.
Pardi later added, “She asked me to be a part of this song and I was like send it to me and I heard it and I was like yes this is awesome. It’s rowdy, it’s got attitude and that’s what we’re singing tonight.”
