Ella Langley Delivers Hilarious, Impromptu Version Of “Wish I Didn’t Know Now” While Security Checked On Passed Out Fan In Helotes, Texas
Making sure everyone’s okay, but not making things awkward.
Ella Langley was “Choosin’ Texas” all weekend long, running around the Lone Star State on her Still Hungover tour. From Houston to Helotes, and Fort Worth, Langley was hitting all the major dance halls and packed out each venue over the weekend.
During her sold-out show at Billy Bob’s Texas, Langley could feel how many people filled the venue making comments about how warm it was inside, and encouraged her fans to drink water between tequila shots.
“It’s hot as s*** in here, isn’t it? It’s pretty rock and roll if you ask me. You know back in the day when they didn’t have air conditioning, they still partied so… just drink some water like I said. In between the tequila shots, one or two wouldn’t kill you, you know?”

Based off footage online, it appears that Langley’s fans took her advice to heart and for the most part the packed crowd was behaved. However, before taking the stage at the world’s largest honky tonk, the crowd in Helotes, Texas, did not follow those rules leading Langley to pause during her set to make sure her fans were okay.
While performing her cover of Toby Keith’s “Wish I Didn’t Know Now,” Langley had to pause the song when she saw that a fan in the crowd went down. She called security over to the area to ensure that everyone was safe before singing the final chorus of the song. However, instead of calling quiet over the room, Langley calmly changes the lyrics of the tune to reflect that she was dialing back the song until it was confirmed her fan was okay.
“Security over here… I think there is something over here right now
Yeah, we’re going to figure it out
Make sure nobody’s passing out
In the front row, in the front row
Why don’t y’all drink some water
Please drink some water…”
Langley then begins singing again after confirming that the fan was safe and shared that she would learn about what happened after the show. Since she was singing her impromptu safety tune to the melody of “Wish I Didn’t Know Now” it made for a seamless transition back into the lyrics, and Langley gave a stellar finish to the song.
I’m giving Langley a round of applause for quickly addressing the situation and for making sure all the concert attendees were safe, and instead of making it an awkward silent pause in the show, her little ditty kept everyone engaged on her so the security could get in there to get their job done.
Langley handled this situation with ease and grace… The way Langley handed this situation screams future Entertainer of the Year to me.
