Julianne Hough, Carrie Underwood Electrify CMT Red Carpet, Stage

Julianne Hough and Carrie Underwood, two of country music’s most dazzling beauties, were among the standouts at the CMT Awards Wednesday night.

While Taylor Swift will earn the most buzz for her head-turning transformation from cute to stunning, Hough and Underwood (albeit in a troublesome pink dress) looked reliably spectacular at the event.

Who looked better? Compare the two, while also admiring shots of Hayden Panettiere, who also attended the event.
