Thomas Rhett’s wife, Lauren, has appeared in his last several music videos, including “Die A Happy Man,” “Vacation,” “Star of the Show” and now his latest video for “Craving You,” but TR admits he may have created a bit of a situation by including her.  He says, “I kind of put myself in a hole the first time I put Lauren in a video because I feel like my fans are now like, ‘Well, why is she not going to be in all your videos?’ And I’m like, ‘Cause she does not want to be.’ She hates being the center of attention. And so like any time I bring her on stage or I like say her name at a concert she gets really shy and she’s like, ‘Oh God, here we go.’ But she really is such an amazing person, an amazing trooper when it comes to doing these videos.”

Thomas Rhett’s fans have become such a fan of Lauren’s that she has almost one million followers on Instagram.  His “Star of the Show” video is nominated for two awards at this week’s CMT Music Awards, and there’s no doubt he will give her a lot of the credit if he wins.  Thomas is also nominated for Social Superstar of the Year and CMT Performance of the Year for “Close,” which he performed with Nick Jonas and Danielle Bradbery on CMT Crossroads.  The awards will air live from Nashville on Wednesday night on CMT.
