Martina McBride
In 2006 Martina McBride stole the show at the CMA Music Festival. Despite performances from the likes of Kenny Chesney, Keith Urban, Brooks & Dunn, and Wynonna, it was the straight-up, plant-your-feet-and-sing set from Kansas-born McBride that took the prize. In its festival wrap-up, the Nashville Tennessean pronounced hers the "best performance — hands down, for sure, no question."

"Sorry," she said, politely covering her mouth. "I haven't eaten since breakfast." While Sparks seemed like a clear victor after nailing her final performances, she swears she didn't see it that way: "I had no idea what was going to happen. When Blake and I were standing up there [waiting to hear who'd won], he was just like, 'I love you, sweetheart,' and he squeezed my hand, and I realized that no matter what happened, everything was going to be OK."
OK, indeed. Here is TV Guide's post-fina
