Nothing beats seeing your favorite artist live for the first time. Lainey Wilson is making this little girl’s dream come true–and she didn’t even know it at the moment. As a young music fan, you never forget your first concert. I remember my first concert was a Tony Hawk/rock show, which some might think, “Well, that’s not technically a concert.” And while yes, you’re technically correct, and in that case it was Sara Bareilles, the first concert I remember vividly —and what I consider to be my first concert. Of course, the experience of your first concert his heightened when it’s an artist you admire deeply. Lainey Wilson is one of those artists whom little girls fan over, hoping to be their first concert. And honestly, if I was a mom to a little girl, I’d buy tickets to a Lainey Wilson show faster than you could say her name. The Louisiana native is not only making moves as a powerhouse artist in country music but is also uplifting the youth of tomorrow. Lainey Wilson is doing her part as a role model for young girls, lifting them up each night during her concert with the Cowgirl of the Night. While Wilson constantly interacted with her young fans, the tradition started on her Country’s Cool Again tour, where Wilson invited a young fan on stage, led her in an affirmation, and presented her with a cowgirl hat to take home. Growing up in this world as a girl can be cruel, and we have heard stories from Lainey Wilson fans about being bullied for embracing a Western flair in fashion or for chasing a dream others might not see. Lainey Wilson has genuinely become a role model for young girls and women all over. While, of course, the chosen Cowgirl of the Night at her shows is left with a core memory, many little girls in the crowd are left with the same memory, without stepping foot on stage. One young fan is currently going viral for her unforgettable reaction to seeing Lainey Wilson come on stage in Knoxville, Tennessee. “When you’re just so excited to see Lainey Wilson for the first time!” The little girl’s mother captioned the moment. The viral moment showcases a young fan letting out a blood-curdling scream right before Wilson took the stage. Her excitement is truly unmatched, and all concertgoers should take notes from her before attending their next show. As soon as Wilson appeared in front of the crowd for her opening number, the little girl’s excitement bubbles over, and she bursts into tears, expressing all the emotions of seeing one of her favorite artists live for the first time. Honestly… I get it, girl. This reaction is so valid and raw. @tamarabethhatcher When you’re just so excited to see @Lainey Wilson for the first time! #wwdd #laineywilson #cowgirls ♬ original sound – Tamara Beth Hatcher Fans were quick to melt, leaving sweet notes on the emotional reaction: “I feel the same way. I cry when Lainey comes out.” “We were there last night, down at the bottom of the stage, my little girl was the same way.” “I was there me too girly pop I’m so happy you got to have this experience.” After the video began to gain some traction, Lainey Wilson filmed herself reacting to it, and this young fan melted her heart. “Duck just sent me this video and said I got to watch it.” She finishes saying right before the little girl begins to scream. As Wilson watches the moment, you can see that it’s making her emotional, knowing she has such an impact on her young fans. “That scream girl! Stop! You’re gonna make me cry! Love you, sister.” Wilson says, blowing a kiss before signing off on the video. The little girl’s mom responded to the video, noting that this will make her daughter’s day: “I cannot wait to show her this! She is going to melt. Thank you so much for being such a good influence to these girls!” Lainey Wilson is as real as they get. Not only is she making killer music, but she’s serving as an incredible role model. Keep on, keeping on. @laineywilson #duet with @Tamara Beth Hatcher #wwdd ♬ original sound – Tamara Beth Hatcher The post “You’re Gonna Make Me Cry” – Lainey Wilson Responds To Young Fan’s Heart-Melting Concert Video first appeared on Whiskey Riff.

Shots fired? To say that it’s been an interesting few weeks for Chris Young would be nothing short of an understatement. After releasing his tenth studio album, I Didn’t Come Here To Leave, on October 17, the “Tomorrow” singer would be caught up in a media firestorm after multiple videos went viral during his set at Boots in the Park in Tucson, Arizona, alleging that he was drunk while performing at the festival. This was thanks in part to a video of Young performing his 2015 #1 hit, “I’m Comin’ Over,” going viral, which was uploaded by TikTok user, @SCDOWDY, with the caption: “When you pay over a hundred dollars to see Chris Young and he’s drunkedy drunk drunk. WOW.” @scdowdy87 When you pay over a hundred dollars to see @Chris Young and he’s drunkedy drunk drunk. WOW #bootsinthepark #tornupcountry #ChrisYoungRuinedMyBirthday@Boots In The Park ♬ original sound – SCDOWDY Of course, due to the TikTok user’s caption alleging that he was drunk during the performance, many in the comments were quick to jump to the conclusion that he was under the influence, with others saying he had sounded similarly at past concerts. “His concert that I went to was one of my favorites. This is sad.” “Unacceptable” “Disappointed.” “Omg he sounds horrible” “It’s like watching someone drunk singing karaoke” “He must have a drinking problem, he’s going fast, them slow, up and down in volume. He’s definitely drunk.” Though many were quick to criticize Young on seemingly every corner of the internet, it seemed as if that controversy had died down heading into this week, with the “Gettin’ You Home” singer never publicly giving a statement on the now-viral performance. With that being said, however, Young was quickly launched back into the spotlight yesterday upon the release of more bodycam footage from Morgan Wallen’s now infamous 2024 chair-throwing incident and eventual arrest outside of Eric Church’s bar, Chief’s, on Broadway in Nashville. Long story short, Wallen and Officer Lopez, as the “Last Night” singer refers to him in the footage, go on to discuss their favorite country music artists after he asks who Lopez listens to. The officer admits that Wallen is one of his favorites, and also says he loves Zach Bryan and Josh Turner. Wallen says he knows who Bryan is, but hasn’t ever really listened to his music, though he admits that he loves Josh Turner and has listened to him since he was a kid. And during their discussion about favorite country music singers, Young’s 2024 single, “Young Love & Saturday Nights” can be heard playing on the patrol car’s radio. Hearing it, Wallen goes onto say that he just hopes they don’t hear any more Chris Young, because “he’s terrible” before suggesting they listen to his friends, HARDY or ERNEST, instead. “Please do not play any Chris Young on this mother******. Oh hell no, he’s terrible.” Play Hardy or Ern.” Morgan has never publicly said anything about Young or his music before, and obviously he refrains from calling out fellow country artists in particular, but I’m guessing he’d been drinking and probably forgot everything was being recorded during parts of this conversation. @bodycamclips23 He’s kinda funny… #morganwallen #fyp #viral #bodycam #countrymusic ♬ original sound – BodyCamPolice Though Young has not directly called out Wallen for his drunken, disparaging comments in the bodycam footage, he did take to TikTok last night to upload an interesting video. Along with his German Shepherd, Porter, the 40-year-old singer would upload a “duet” video showing Cardi B’s viral acceptance speech for winning Best New Artist at the 2018 iHeartRadio Music where she thanked her “haters” for helping her win the award along with the caption: “Thanks for all the love on the album!” If you’re not familiar with the clip, here’s a transcript of the viral portion of her speech: “I wanna thank my haters too because they’ve been downloading my stuff so they can hear it and talk crap about it. But it benefits me.” @chrisyoungmusic #duet with @The CEO Social too funny not to post #ididntcomeheretoleave ♬ original sound – The CEO Social Kind of an odd flex, but should Chris really care what Morgan Wallen thinks of his music? Eh, probably not. Hell, Morgan recently admitted that he doesn’t even listen to that much modern-day country music. But given the timing of Wallen’s new bodycam footage surfacing, it’s fairly easy to jump to the conclusion that he’s calling him out here, and he very well might be. However, when you throw in the fact that people were upset over his allegedly drunken performance at Boots in the Park coupled with another album fans didn’t enjoy as much as his earlier work, it very well could have been Young dealing with that instead. Perhaps the most likely answer is Young simultaneously addressing both in one video, but for now, it’s simply speculation.The post Chris Young Seemingly Responds To Morgan Wallen Calling Him “Terrible” With A Video Of Cardi B Thanking Her Haters first appeared on Whiskey Riff.

I’ll never get tired of a Toby Keith story. It doesn’t matter where it comes from. As long as we get more insight into the full life that the Big Dog Daddy lived, that’s all that matters. Though we lost the country music legend back in February of 2024, his legacy and his music will forever live on… and the stories that other country music artists will help keep his spirit alive. The latest Toby Keith story that I’ve come across is courtesy of the rodeo cowboy turned country singer Chancey Williams. The authentic, western artist is very talented in his own right, and he caught the eye of Toby Keith at one point, which sparked a friendship. While Williams was on The Jarrod Morris Vibe podcast, he broke into a story about his friendship with Keith led to one very late night in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Chancey was there for the Cheyenne Frontier Days rodeo (it’s a big deal in Wyoming), and he had already played and was done for the night… or so he thought: “We were playing at Cheyenne Frontier Days and had got done, and it was like 2 a.m. and I went back to the hotel room. The hotel phone rings. I pick up the hotel phone, and they’re like, ‘Hey, we’ve got Toby Keith down here.’ I was kind of alcohol-ed up. I had been drinking… I was like, ‘Bulls***, put him on.’ He was like, ‘What are you doing? Get down here, we just flew in.’ Toby was playing the main stage the next day. He was like, ‘Hey let’s go cruise around in the van.’ It was like 3 in the morning in Cheyenne.” When Toby Keith asks you to go cruising, it doesn’t matter what time of day it is… you go. Williams threw back on his boots, headed down to the lobby and met Toby Keith. They ended up loading into the van and driving around (someone else named Jason was driving them). The only problem? They ran out of “cruising beer” at one point, and nowhere in Cheyenne was still serving. Toby had an idea: “We’re driving around Cheyenne. We run out of beer, Toby says, ‘Let’s go get some more.’ They don’t serve beer in Cheyenne after 2, and I had already had enough. Toby said, ‘I know where there’s beer. Jason, go to the airport.’ They go to the private airport, nose the ol’ van up to Toby’s jet. Toby’s got whiskey and (whatever else). We partied.” Imagine hanging out with Toby Keith on his private jet and throwing back beers until the sun comes up. Chancey Williams was quite literally living the dream. And the dream got that much better when Williams jokingly threw out the idea of helping Toby sing “Should’ve Been A Cowboy” during his Cheyenne Frontier Days performance. It was just a joke… but the Big Dog Daddy was all for it: “I threw out there, ‘Hey, if you need help singing ‘Should’ve Been A Cowboy’ tomorrow in Cheyenne, I’ve been practicing it for all these years.’ He was like, ‘Be there tomorrow.’ And I was just kind of joking. He was like, ‘No, be there tomorrow and come up and sing with me.’ 20,000 people at Cheyenne Frontier Days. I woke up in the morning, texted his agent asking, ‘Hey man, was Toby serious?’ (He was like), ‘Yeah, he’s always serious. Just come to the show early and we’ll figure it out.'” View this post on Instagram A post shared by The Jarrod Morris Vibe Podcast (@thejarrodmorrisvibe) Never hurts to ask. Chancey Williams is eternally grateful for the graciousness that Toby Keith extended to him. He’ll never forget sharing the stage with the country music legend, and he insists that there’s no one else like the Big Dog Daddy… and there likely won’t ever be: “There’s stars in country music, and then there’s superstars. Toby was one of the superstars. How many of those superstars let their ‘intern’ come and sing the biggest song of their career? None… so I went out and sang with Toby. It was a memory that I’ll have forever.” You can hear more from Chancey Williams in the interview below: The post Chancey Williams Recalls Late Night Beer Run With Toby Keith That Ended With Them Drinking On His Private Jet first appeared on Whiskey Riff.
