Trisha Yearwood will be appearing on an upcoming epsidode of Nashville, but she won't need to muster up any acting chops; she will be playing herself.
The scene will take place at the "CMA Awards," where Yearwood gets to present a trophy.
"It's actually very similar [to the real thing]," she told Rolling Stone. "The only difference is I'm not in a gown and full hair and makeup at 10 o'clock in the morning. But you look at the Teleprompter and you rehearse what you're going to say. If you're presenting [an award], it's a pretty easy gig. This is good; it will be good rehearsal for me for the actual CMA Awards in a few weeks."
The Boot points out that Yearwood hosts her own cooking show, Trisha's Southern Kitchen, and has appeared in Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman and JAG. She's always been a big fan of Nashville.
"I especially love to watch it for the city," Yearwood says. "They're at the Bluebird, or I know that drummer, you see people that you know. Then you get sucked into the story and you're waiting to see what happens. Now that I know a little bit ahead about what's happening, I've got to have some conversations with the script writers. I've got some changes that need to be made!"
Yearwood is currently in the midst of helping husband Garth Brooks with his world tour.
"Every day is pretty great, I have to say," Yearwood said. "I don't want to sound like one of those sappy couples, but I'm that person. We've got great memories already, we'll just make some more."
Brooks said it does not matter where the couple spends time together - whether that is on the road or at home.
"Home is wherever you're together," he said. "The best meal you've ever eaten is the one you eat together. Even just s----y TV shows are fantastic if you get to watch them side by side."
What kind of s----y TV shows, exactly? Well, Brooks recently learned an important lesson from an unnamed chick flick.
"The guy was making a toast at the wedding, and he said, 'The most important advice I can give you is marry someone kind,'" Brooks said. "And I looked at her, and I thought, 'Wow,' it's really sweet because when things get hellacious in a marriage and you're with someone that isn't kind, it gets really bad.
"You've always been kind to me, and I'll say it again, the worst day we've ever had together beat the best day I've ever had without you."
