CMT Music Video of the Year
"Ready To Run"
Dixie Chicks
Director: Evan Bernard
The Chicks - Natalie, Emily and Martie - appear headed to the altar for a triple wedding. But underneath those white gowns are running shoes, tailor-made for splitting the scene. The just-for-fun video was a takeoff of the hit movie, Runaway Bride, in which the single was featured.
Group/Duo of the Year
Dixie Chicks
They've tipped country music on its ear with their sassy style and flashy mix of country, bluegrass and pop. Coming off their biggest year yet, the Chicks enjoyed megahits including "Ready To Run" and "Cowboy Take Me Away." What's more, both of their albums - Fly and Wide Open Spaces - nested in country's Top 10 at the same time.
