Country Bump-Chin: There's a lot that springs to mind as we gaze upon Kellie Pickler's captivating silver beaded Zuhair Murad ruched gown. Like how it's clinging to the country warbler's Dolly Parton-in-puberty hourglass curves tighter than an anxious swimmer to a flotation device (which, coincidentally, is something the cotton candy-blond bombshell can double as). Or how it creates a handy-dandy chin rest should she become drowsy and need a comfortable place to nod off. Or how wearing it requires the cessation of all fluids for 24 hours because a quick stop in the ladies room is out of the question. Pickler doesn't have to worry about that last one in her onstage ensemble of dominatrix boots and a black leather minidress, which puts forth a valiant but ultimately unsuccessful effort to keep her inner thighs from seeing the light of day.
