Ever since Thomas Rhett was a kid, he has loved being in front of the camera, whether doing skits with his sister or pretending he was James Bond, while his dad filmed him. If you’ve watched his videos, like his latest video for “Star of the Show,” then you know he is a natural in front of the camera. Thomas says, “I think a dream for any artist would be to host a CMA or an ACM or award show and to get to have that host that you really mesh with and just become iconic kind of like Vince and Reba. You know, we go back and watch those clips and it’s like God, they had such chemistry. So I think that would be a dream for me.”
He’d also love to follow in the footsteps of people like Tim McGraw and Taylor Swift and explore acting. He says, “Acting would be great. I think that would be a really cool thing to dive into. I know it’s one of the hardest jobs on the planet but it would be a lot of fun to give it a shot.”
For now, Thomas Rhett is focused on his music and his first headlining tour, The Home Team Tour, which will kick off on February 23rd.

Thomas Rhett – interested in hosting or acting :38
“Even since I was a little kid I feel like my dad has always run around with a video camera filming me and my sister, just come up with dumb skits and pretending I’m James Bond and run around the house in a suit. And I’ve always loved being in front of the camera. And so, yeah, I think a dream for any artist would be to host a CMA or an ACM or award show and to get to have that host that you really mesh with and just become iconic kind of like Vince and Reba. You know, we go back and watch those clips and it’s like God, they had such chemistry. So I think that would be a dream for me. And acting would be great. I think that would be a really cool thing to dive into. I know it’s one of the hardest jobs on the planet but it would be a lot of fun to give it a shot.”
