Reese Witherspoon made her first appearance since marrying Jim Toth at Sunday's Academy of Country Music Awards, and the newlywed looked amazing.
Oh yeah, and Robert Pattinson was there too.
The Water for Elephants co-stars presented the female vocalist award at the event, while musing about the film they just shot in her native Tennessee. "I liked drinking a lot of moonshine," joked Rob. Check out their banter here:
Robert and Reese Present Miranda Lambert won the award the two were on hand to present. She, Taylor Swift and Lady Antebellum all racked up big wins at the annual event.
Earlier that day, the duo were in Santa Monica, Calif., doing another press event for the period piece about a romance sparked on a traveling circus.
Speaking of a circus, how about the scandalous leak of these Breaking Dawn sex pics and the uproar it caused from the film's producers? Yowza.
Rihanna and ... Jennifer Nettles? Carrie Underwood and ... Steven Tyler?
Not exactly tandems you might expect to perform together, but both duos held their own and then some at the Academy of Country Music Awards.
Here's Rihanna and Jennifer Nettles of Sugarland fame, rocking "California King Bed" before a packed house at the 46th annual industry gala in Vegas ...

They actually sounded pretty good together ...
The 46th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards was officially ladies' night, with Miranda Lambert, Taylor Swift and others taking home the top honors.
Lady Antebellum – the co-ed trio Hillary Scott, Charles Kelley and Dave Haywood – clocked in the most wins, but the evening's highest honor went to Swift.
The singer was crowned entertainer of the year.
"I'm just losing my mind," Swift told the audience after her big win.
"The fact that this is from the fans makes its so beautiful."
Lambert, meanwhile, snagged honors for favorite female vocalist, record of the year, video of the year and song of the year for "The House that Built Me."
Lady Antebellum won big, like they did at this year's Grammy Awards, for their smash single "Need You Now," scoring album of the year and top vocal group.
Hosts Reba McEntire and Blake Shelton, soon-to-be husband of Lambert, kicked off the ceremony with a few words of wisdom. For starters, don't mess with Swift.
"If you make her mad, she'll write a song about you," McEntire said.
The show included a performance by Rihanna and Sugarland's Jennifer Nettles, plus A-list presenters such as Gossip Girl's Chace Crawford, Celine Dion, and Water for Elephants co-stars Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon.
The show took place at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nev.
What did you think? Did the voters make the right calls?
