Kristen Bell Steps Out for CMT Awards Press Conference: 'It's Not the Hardest Job in America'

Kristen Bell is all smiles as she sits down for an interview during the 2014 CMT Music Awards Press Conference held at Bridgestone Arena on Tuesday (June 3) in Nashville, Tennessee.

The 33-year-old Veronica Mars actress is returning as the host for the big award show after previously hosting before: in 2012 with Toby Keith and in 2013 with Jason Aldean.

“In truth what I do during the show is change into a variety of fancy outfits and read a Teleprompter, so it’s not the hardest job in America,” Kristen joked during the press conference (via People). “Honestly it doesn’t feel like work for me. It feels like a lot of fun. And I have a front-row seat to an amazing concert.”

“The majority of my group of friends in my early 20s were from the South and so a lot of them were playing country artists and I fell in love,” Kristen continued. “I think it’s the most melodic of all the genres and they are easy songs to memorize ’cause they are telling a story, and as a storyteller I gravitate toward that.”
