It's been a month since Lucy Hale made her Grand Ole Opry debut, and the singer is reliving the experience by taking fans backstage in a behind-the-scenes video.

Yes, it's true -- the sweet Lucy Hale auditioned for the role of Anastasia Steele in the upcoming film version of '50 Shades of Grey.'

Sometimes a country boy (or girl) chooses comfort over classy. With temps pushing 90 across much of the country, this was the week to stay cool in country music with fitted T-shirts! Between scoop necks, graphic tees, plain and chest-hugging tees -- there was a lot to look at.

Lucy Hale found success at a young age, acting on ABC Family's teen drama 'Pretty Little Liars' and appearing in other films and television shows. Although lots of people know 'Lucy the Actor,' she allows that many don't know 'Lucy the Person,' and her upcoming country album 'Road Between' will show who Hale really is.

Car rides are good for one thing: sing-a-longs. Actress/singer Lucy Hale made use of her time in the car with country singer Joel Crouse and their musician friend, Kyle Rife. The trio sang a popular song from the animated musical 'Frozen.'

Eric Paslay fell just short of the Country Whuppin' Hall of Fame, but after a really nice run, he was defeated by Chuck Wicks.  Chuck takes over the crown as champion and goes into competition against new country artist and star of Pretty Little Liars, Lucy Hale.
