The 2015 CMT Awards were broadcast live Wednesday night. And with live TV comes plenty of awkward moments. Here are our favorites of the night:
First, we take you to the red carpet, where host Katie Cook took her love of Dierks Bentley's hair to a whole new level.

Hands off the hair there, Katie! Way to make it totally awkward.
And her red carpet co-host wasn't any less cringeworthy when he spotted Carrie Underwood on her way inside the arena.

And Carrie didn't escape the awkwardness after that whole ... thing.
The hosts of the whole shebang, Erin Andrews and Brittany Snow, made everyone cringe with their opening monologue dedicated to the singer.

Yeeeah, Carrie looked weirded out by that nod to Brittany's hit movie, "Pitch Perfect." (Video via Universal Pictures / "Pitch Perfect 2")
As one viewer on Twitter perfectly put it, "This is legit awkward." And it didn't stop there.

Make it stop!
Then there was that time Jake Owen crowd-surfed onto the stage ... on an air mattress.
