Connie Britton praises ‘Nashville’ on 2012 Emmys red carpet

Last night at the 64th Annual Emmys, Connie Britton got on stage with Nashville co-star Hayden Pannettiere to present an award, but beforehand she was busy on the red carpet promoting her upcoming show.

After discussing her nomination with TVLine, she noted the hard work she put in upcoming show Nashville. “It’s a very challenging show there are a lot of different levels and layers and people are working really hard and I think it’s really going to be awesome,” she said.

Nashville premieres on Wednesday, October 10 at 10 pm est. on ABC.

At the end of the interview she coyly joked about filming a Friday Night Lights movie next year -- but keep hope alive because you never know.

Britton was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Miniseries or a Movie category for her role in American Horror Story. However, according to the Emmys website, she failed to win, as Julianne Moore picked up the trophy for her portrayal of Sarah Palin in Game Change.

Below you can watch the gorgeous Emmy nominee and presenter reveal how she was keeping cool and was nice enough to share her secret to interviewer Michael Ausiello.
