‘Dark Horse’ hitmaker Katy Perry wasn’t the only diva who saddled up to conquer the Country charts recently.

Just weeks ahead of her stunning showing of ‘Where We Started’ alongside Country star Thomas Rhett at the 2022 CMAs on Wednesday (November 9), GRAMMY-winning songstress Ciara tackled the CMT “Artists of the Year” ceremony alongside Walker Hayes to perform the remix to his hit, ‘Y’all Life.’

And while Cici made the genre-bending performance look easy, behind the scenes footage proves a lot of hard work went into bringing it to life.
