Since everyone's talking about Beyonce performing at the CMAs and bringing up Rihanna's performance from a few years ago, let us look back on this extremely random performance of Bang Bang that Ariana did with Little Big Town with no reason whatsoever.


I mean...

I genuinely think she performed on every single awards show held in 2014

lmao didn't know about this one
I really wanna know what country fans really think about these performances, because this one and Rihanna's are extremely random

They didn't even try and make this one sound remotely country.

The biggest kiii ever

Im screaming at this

I screamed at this. SO random for a country show. $cooter's power.

I think the performance last year with Fifth Harmony was by far the most random inclusion, and was such a terrible performance.

Well at least they made it country, and sang another Cam song with her.

Back when Scooter booked the ****ing moon for her to promote

That wasn't the same award show lol

ACMs (Rihanna) ≠ CMT Awards (Fifth Harmony) ≠ AMAs (Beyoncé's Irreplaceable) ≠ CMAs (Daddy Lessons)

But THIS particular performance is rather... interesting.

Did she forget the lyrics at .29-.31? It's look she's just mumbling

Or her enunciation problems really took her for a ride that night

We're as clueless about it as y'all are.

Her manager at that time was booking anything and everything. The promo worked I guess
