"I brought my mom to a sit-down interview with country duo Florida Georgia Line (Georgia native Tyler Hubbard and Florida native Brian Kelley) an hour before they took the stage at the sold-out Club Nokia in downtown L.A. Luckily for me, the guys couldn&amp;#39;t get enough of her (even when she tried to play matchmaker). In return, she had the time of her life singing along (in the pit no less!) to songs like &amp;quot;Round Here&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Stay.&amp;quot;\nPinterestFacebook(from left) Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley.\nSo I couldn&amp;#39;t blame my mom for her reaction when I told her the news after that Brian Kelley got married: &amp;quot;WHAT?!?!&amp;quot; &amp;quot;We were with him the weekend before last! He didn&amp;#39;t talk about a wedding!&amp;quot; she huffed. [For the record, they never do.] And then, &amp;quot;Well, he should have at least invited us. He seemed like he really enjoyed our company.&amp;quot;\nThe duo is no stranger to charming fans, as evidenced by only a few of these mind-boggling statistics:\n\n*FGL is the only artist in history to join Brooks and Dunn to have their first three singles hit No. 1 for multiple weeks each.&amp;gt;\n\n\n\n\n*&amp;quot;Cruise&amp;quot; broke the record for longest No. 1 on &amp;gt; Billboard&amp;#39;s Hot Country Songs Chart. &amp;gt;\n\n\n\n*They&amp;#39;ve sold more than 10 million tracks worldwide from their debut album, &amp;gt; Here&amp;#39;s to the Good Times, which has been certified platinum in the U.S. and gold in Canada.\nSo, with a visiting mom in tow, Brian, Tyler, and I chatted about life in the spotlight, girlfriends, and the surprising song they&amp;#39;re still not sick of singing.\nPinterestFacebookGlamour: This past year has been truly amazing for you both. What moment in particular made you look at each other like, &amp;quot;What on earth is happening? Do you believe this?!&amp;quot;\nTyler: Just about every week was like that. We would get emails on a daily basis where we&amp;#39;d think, Did that really just happen? Between working with Alabama, working with Nelly, and going on tour with Luke [Bryan], what we&amp;#39;ve gotten to do this year has been a dream come true for us. It&amp;#39;s really hard to give you a defining moment.\nGlamour:The right answer would have been, &amp;quot;This interview.&amp;quot;\nTyler: Oh right, yes, this interview! THIS interview has been the highlight. Your mom is with us and everything. If we&amp;#39;re going to be honest, this really is it. And we&amp;#39;re also sitting in the catering room surrounded by food. Couldn&amp;#39;t be better. Makes it extra special.\nBrian: For me, the most surreal moment was the Nelly remix and the relationship we have with his crew and being involved with the Alabama &amp;amp; Friends album. Obviously all the awards have been unreal. The whole year has been crazy, and to think what has changed from last January to now. It&amp;#39;s real cool.\nGlamour: &amp;quot;Cruise&amp;quot; has been your most popular single among fans, but what song is your favorite to perform live?\nTyler: It&amp;#39;s probably &amp;quot;Cruise&amp;quot; right now. The crowd just goes crazy for it and is so intense, and you can just tell the anticipation has been building for us to sing it throughout the night, so it&amp;#39;s always fun every single night. I don&amp;#39;t think it will ever get old.\nBrian: &amp;quot;Cruise&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;People Back Home,&amp;quot; which we just added. That&amp;#39;s one of my new favorites.\nGlamour: What song lyrics mean the most to you personally?\nBrian: &amp;quot;People Back Home.&amp;quot;\nTyler: It&amp;#39;s a special song to us, really close to our hearts. I love it. It&amp;#39;s kind of our tribute song to the fans.\nPinterestFacebookGlamour: What part of fame were you not prepared for?\nTyler: The interviews. Nah, I&amp;#39;m just kidding! No, I think the amount of time we have to spend away from our family and friends back home sometimes&amp;#8212;it was expected, but sometimes we&amp;#39;ll think, &amp;quot;Wow, it has been six weeks since we&amp;#39;ve been home.&amp;quot; It can wear you out a little bit. And to be honest, in the beginning, I didn&amp;#39;t even know media was such a thing or involved in music. I thought as an artist you just get to go play songs every night, so it&amp;#39;s cool and part of it, but it&amp;#39;s something I learned that is part of this job and personally never even thought of it.\nBrian: You know, it&amp;#39;s just been so cool to see our fans rally behind us and support our music. It&amp;#39;s amazing to see such passionate fans that stand outside and wait in line to buy tickets, or, wait, what did that person do for three hours? Oh, yeah, they waited outside and sang Christmas songs to win tickets to our show. Nobody told us how cool and passionate our fans would be.\nGlamour: You both met in college. What was your first impression of one another?\nTyler: Total loser. [Laughs] Actually, we had a special connection right from when we met. During our very first song we knew there was something special there and just continued to write. We both had the same dreams and goals and wanted to do it together. It was a pretty instant connection, really a God thing, that&amp;#39;s for sure. EHarmony really worked for us. [Laughs]\nGlamour: Describe each other in three words.\nBrian: Tyler is passionate, hardworking, and a friend.\nTyler: Aww, that&amp;#39;s good man. That&amp;#39;s very heartfelt. Brian is a go-getter, amazing hair, and definitely a hard worker for sure.\nGlamour: I have to ask: serious girlfriends?\nMy mom: Oh, my daughter is available!\nTyler: Mom!\nMy mom: Haha, sorry about that!\nTyler: Well, in that case, no, we&amp;#39;re both single!\nGlamour:And that&amp;#39;s the last time Mom comes on an interview.\nTyler: Haha, no, we both have girlfriends, so it&amp;#39;s pretty awesome.\nGlamour:How do you keep the relationship strong when you&amp;#39;re constantly on the road? Do they come with you?\nTyler: Yeah, they come on the road quite a bit with us, travel on the bus with us&amp;#8212;it&amp;#39;s pretty neat. Their schedule is flexible enough that it allows them to hang out with us. They&amp;#39;re just laid-back and easygoing, and that&amp;#39;s exactly what it takes, especially when you&amp;#39;re on a tour like this. It&amp;#39;s working out great.\nGlamour:Did you meet them before things really took off in your career? Because I&amp;#39;d imagine as you guys continue to explode, it&amp;#39;s hard to know people&amp;#39;s true intentions.\nTyler: Yeah, we met them before, if you want to say, [we] &amp;quot;exploded.&amp;quot;\nPinterestFacebookBrian and his new bride, Brittney. (credit: Justin Mrusek)\nGlamour: You both have the most incredible houses ever. (Brian lives in a treehouse, while Tyler has a sprawling estate.) Brian, I&amp;#39;m convinced I need to move in because you essentially live in a high-tech treehouse.\nBrian: Haha, yes, it&amp;#39;s two bedrooms, about 1,500 square feet. 32 acres.\nGlamour:Do you guys hang out at each other&amp;#39;s houses?\nTyler: We bought our homes around October 1 and have been home I think a total of seven nights. I&amp;#39;m actually excited about hanging out at the treehouse next month.\nGlamour: When you have a night off, what do you like to do?\nTyler: Go to the house and sit down. [Laughs]\nBrian: Just lay low. Seriously right now, just hang out at the house and eat pizza naked.\nGlamour:Seriously, you have to say that to me after you just crushed my dreams and said you have a girlfriend?\nTyler: Yeah, Brian, what the heck? Really? &amp;quot;Naked on the couch eating a pizza?&amp;quot;\nBrian: It&amp;#39;s Jet&amp;#39;s Pizza. It&amp;#39;s so good. Turbo crust.\nMy mom: Jets?! Oh my gosh, we just got one in St. Louis!\nBrian: Oh, it&amp;#39;s so good! It&amp;#39;s nothing fancy, but it&amp;#39;s great!\nTyler: She is adorable! I love Mom.\nGlamour: OK, let&amp;#39;s play rapid-fire questions! Must-see TV show?\nTyler: Dallas.\nGlamour:Is that how you got Josh Henderson to be in your music video for &amp;quot;Stay?&amp;quot;__\nTyler: No, but that&amp;#39;s how I know of the Dallas TV show now.\nBrian: [For me], it&amp;#39;s Dexter. I&amp;#39;ll be catching up on that over the holidays.\nGlamour: Favorite breakfast food?\nTyler: Cheese &amp;#39;n&amp;#39; eggs from the Waffle House!\nBrian: Cheese &amp;#39;n&amp;#39; eggs with grilled chicken in a wrap from the Waffle House&amp;#8212;oh man!\nTyler: We did that three nights in a row recently.\nGlamour: Favorite sports team?\nBrian: The Florida Seminoles.\nTyler: Georgia Bulldogs.\nGlamour: Drink of choice?\nBrian: Beer or Jack and anything.\nTyler: Yeah, Jack and Sprite&amp;#8212;or Jack and anything, really.\nGlamour: Vacation spot?\nTyler: I really like California. I haven&amp;#39;t explored it all yet, but I love it here.\nBrian: Cashiers, North Carolina.\nGlamour: Dream movie star to be in one of your music videos?\nTyler: The dancer guy that every girl has a crush on! What&amp;#39;s his name?\nBrian: Channing Tatum?\nTyler: Yeah, Channing Tatum!\nBrian: I&amp;#39;m not even answering this one!\nTyler: Come on, dude! Who wouldn&amp;#39;t want Channing Tatum in their music video? I mean, obviously we already have hot girls in our videos, so I&amp;#39;d want Channing Tatum!\nBrian: I&amp;#39;d have my sexy girlfriend in the video.\nTyler: Of course you would.\nPinterestFacebookNo, it&amp;#39;s not Channing Tatum, but we think Luke Bryan is quite the suitable replacement. ;)\nGlamour: Favorite childhood cartoon?\nBrian: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.\nTyler: Scooby-Doo!\nGlamour: What do you hope to have accomplished a year from now?\nTyler: I don&amp;#39;t know, I think if we could have another year like this year we&amp;#39;ll be pretty happy. A lot of sold-out shows, and hopefully at the end of the year we&amp;#39;ll have a new album out and keep doing what we&amp;#39;re doing.\nBrian: I&amp;#39;m going to agree with that.\n__How awesome are the guys? What song of theirs is your absolute fave?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
