Gwyneth Paltrow on her fear of performing at the Country Music Awards…
“For the two weeks before I landed in Nashville I was so nervous that it was genuinely a problem. I was waking up with horrible nightmares. It was like, ‘Why did I say yes to this? Am I insane?’ I couldn’t eat, I was sick, it was awful.
“When I got to Nashville I started to feel slightly more comfortable—I was staying at Tim [McGraw] and Faith [Hill]’s house and I felt really cocooned by them. … I had prepared so much for it that I knew I could do it if I could just get out of my own way. And then I actually kind of enjoyed the actual thing.”
