An Entire Week of Blond Moments

It’s Country Music Week on Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader! Watch CMT at 6pm (Mountain) each night this week to see Jeff Foxworthy quiz the country stars on grade school subjects. It’s interesting to note that all of this week’s contestants share the same hair color. So be prepared for some great “blond moments” when the singers are forced to cheat off 5th graders to win some money for charity. Tonight, it’s Big Kenny from Big & Rich, playing for his charity Love Everybody. Be sure to check back on this blog later tonight for the recaps!

Tomorrow, Heidi Newfield will play; Wednesday Bucky Covington will try to make the grade; Thursday Jack Ingram matches smarts with the kids; Friday Emily West goes back to school.
