LeAnn Rimes Cibrian is a person who knows what the audience wants, She has given her fans the chance to see one of the cutest and slightly shyest moments with the actress, Jessica Capshaw, who is also from ‘911: Nashville’. The video, only a few seconds long, is from the CMA Awards and shows Rimes turning to Capshaw and singing a few lines of ‘Girl Crush’ which made her blush and giggle. Rimes expressed, ‘my real life #girlcrush… watch out #donDon 😂’, alluding to her and Capshaw’s characters on the show. Rimes even said, ‘just a little somethin’ for our blyxie stans!’—using ‘Blyxie’ which is the name given to their characters, Blythe and Lexie, by fans.
The video is a small but powerful symbol of the chemistry that exists between them in private as well as in public. Rimes dresses in beautiful black attire, leans over to Capshaw and with a knowing smile sings the lines, ‘I wanna know the blood, I wanna match this touch, yeah, cause maybe that she won’t need just as much, I’ve got a good life.’ Capshaw’s reaction—not just surprise, but delight too and deep-growing blush—was the main point by many who viewed the post. It was the kind of moment the show’s highly passionate fans felt greatly and it also seemed like it was both spontaneous and deeply appreciated because they have heavily invested in the relationship between their two characters.
The reaction in the comments was instant and very positive, with lots of users expressing their happiness about the interaction. One comment really captured the feeling that was most common: ‘this is everything omfg 😭💘.’ The comments below this user were full of people agreeing and one person saying, ‘I just died twice,’ while another wrote, ‘i‘m in tears my mothers actually they raised me,’ which just shows how strong the emotional bond is between the audience and the on-screen couple.
Another comment that got a lot of attention was about Capshaw’s reaction and stated: “To be fair, I would get so embarrassed too and also, how could you not?? 😂” This led to a little debate, with one reply saying, ‘@jessicacapshaw definitely couldn’t hold back her facial expression there 💖 of course, who could blame her?’ The very same across-the-board reaction if not even more than any scripted scene could ever evoke was the case here because of the authenticity of the moment being much deeper than any dramatic moment in a film.
Definitely, the most popular comment was that of a user who stated the now-viral line: ‘never let your husband stop you from finding your wife, blythe 🙂↔️.’ The line, which is a witty twist on a well-known internet saying, was met with a flood of comments, including Jessica Capshaw’s apparent nod of approval, who wrote just ‘100%.’ The whole communication made it clear that the stars are not only conscious of the ‘Blyxie’ trend but are happily accepting it, thus, making themselves even more lovable to the viewers.
Yet, beyond the shipping frenzy, many viewers gave Rymes’s vocal performance during the short, acapella clip a big applause. ‘Oh my, your voice Leann 😍!!!’ was one person’s shout. Another, directly, asked her ‘You should cover that 😍 I’d love to have it on my Spotify playlist,’ a wish that was echoed by others who were looking for a full recording. The post was also a quiet advert for their show. One commenter said, “It’s so funny, Thursdays are going to be so sad waiting for January 8. 🥺 The way Jessica blushes. 🥵 Lmao,” referring to the mid-season return date of the series.
