Performing and coming out and doing a song or two songs is one thing, but hosting, I mean the biggest thing is like a quick change is Reba&#8217;s second nature. She could probably do it in her sleep. I&#8217;ve never done this before so I&#8217;m in there looking at four outfits and I&#8217;m trying to think like how (laughs) do I get this done, and I want it to be good. I want it to be fun for everybody so I&#8217;m excited and I&#8217;m nervous. I&#8217;ve been really nervous.
