Tonight you’re going to kick off the CMT Music Awards with Taylor Swift in a segment that pays tribute to “Thelma and Louise.” What was that like to work with Taylor?

She’s such a sweet person. Just very cool and I enjoyed the whole experience. No pressure. I barely do anything but drive and make a few faces. It was really nice being with her. It made me reflect a lot on how it felt for me when I was at her stage. I think there’s something like 25 years difference between us [Twain is 45 and Swift is 21] so you can imagine how that took me back being with her. It was almost surreal.

 

Did she ask you for any advice?

We were focusing on all the difficult lines we had and all the challenging acting! We didn’t get a chance to get to really talk. But we’d both really like to do that. We had some bathroom chat when nobody else was around. That was just girl talk. If she ever needs me, though, I’m there.
