Country superstar Faith Hill took to the stage at on Sunday nights 2015 Billboard Music Awards, where she joined Little Big Town to perform the band’s controversial single Girl Crush.
The four-member band sang behind mic stands as the song began. Cheers erupted from the audience as Hill, dressed in all black, joined the group onstage, singing the lyrics to the song’s second verse.
Girl Crush, the second single released from Little Big Town’s sixth album Pain Killer, peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart despite being the center of controversy for its presumably lesbian themes. Several country radio stations pulled the song from air for the lyrics’ “gay agenda.”
Some of the lyrics in question include
I want to taste her lips, yeah cause they taste like you / I want to drown myself in a bottle of her perfume / I want her long blond hair, I want her magic touch / Yeah cause maybe then, you’d want me just as much … I got a girl crush.”
