Hunter Hayes: ACM Honors 2012

Hunter Hayes snaps a pic with Jana Kramer backstage at the 2012 ACM Honors held at Ryman Auditorium on Monday night (September 24) in Nashville, Tenn.

Just the night before, the 21-year-old country singer was seen celebrating on stage with his first number one hit, “Wanted.”

“It means the world to me. It’s everything. It’s my second single, for heaven’s sake,” Hunter told CMT Insider.

Hunter added about how the celebration continued after the concert, “We hung out, stayed up stupid late and made a big deal out of it, because it is a big deal.”
