CMT Awards Hosts Toby Keith And Kristen Bell Share A Red Solo Cup In Promo Spot

By | Our Country – Fri, Jun 1, 2012 12:25 PM EDT

The CMT Music Awards are coming fast at us--next week, to be exact!--and this year's edition of what we all fondly know as the wackiest country-music awards show is bound to be extra-crazy. I mean, Toby Keith is hosting, after all...proceed to party. Toby Keith

Set to accompany Keith as co-host is super-cute House Of Lies actress Kristen Bell--who, apparently, has never met Keith in person yet. This should be interesting, right?

Here's a couple of funny videos introducing the Hollywood blonde to the almighty Red Solo Cup, as well as documentation of her mispronunciation of a certain country star's name. (Hint: It's not "Bocephus"--which, really, might be understandable.)

The 2012 CMT Music Awards will air live June 6 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT on CMT and CMT.com. Be sure to let me know if you'll be tuning in--and, more importantly, who you are voting for to win on this wholly fan-determined program.
