I've followed you for several years now. You have an amazing voice and are so strong in your conviction of what you want to do. Bravo!

[@rexentertain]

I watched her tiktok account grow from nothing to something real fast, it made me happy when she got approval from Randy Travis and Tim McGraw

[@jaynefranzinoromero1640]

Your kind spirit is like a light shining through your eyes. Your voice is absolutely lovely, unique and one-of-a-kind, but it's the gentle, sweet soul that draws people. God speed you, Alexandra.

[@marylatino7066]

Thank God you did not give up. I get to listen to your songs all day at work. Academy Radio Station. Love it ❤🎉

[@Rick123691]

You didn’t FAIL , country music failed you by not recognizing your talent for years ! ❤️

[@rebeccasmith8715]

All yall need to check out her song "better than goodbye". The video was posted 7 yrs ago. I absolutely love that song. Her voice is amazing.

[@jenniwilliams3295]

I love her! Her voice is amazing. So glad you stuck by your art!

[@Rick123691]

I’ve believed in this girl every since I heard her mouth open ! ♥️♥️♥️

[@sergeipepper7213]

I do miss seeing these keep going

[@robertacampbell5382]

She is truly a great singer. She also seems like a great person.

[@allaboutcrime1972]

I remember seeing the Jolene video a long time ago but never put 2 and 2 together that the girl in that video was Alexandra Kay. The record companies are probably kicking themselves in the butt now. She is so talented!!!

[@kateg7298]

There aren't many unique voices and unique talents anymore. Alexandra has the talent and the drive to have as big a career as Reba. I'm only surprised that they haven't done a duet yet.

[@robertjones705]

She’s a real honest sweet young lady. Real country!

[@crashcarney100]

Very cool story! 😃 Best of luck and nothing can stop you but air and opportunity! That is in abundance as is your talent! ✌🏼

[@pattythegypsy]

she will be a superstar

[@raeannmurray4293]

[@catherineharris27]

YOU DESERVE IT PRETTY GIRL!!! ENJOY EVERY SINGLE MOMENT! MAKE MEMORIES ALONG THE WAY & ALWAYS THANK GOD ABOVE 4 GIVING YOU THE CHANCE TO CHASE UR DREAMS!!

[@wendyfollows7068]

Please come to Vancouver Island off the beautiful West Cost of BC. I'm at Saratoga Beach in Black Creek. Come visit, you won't be sorry, it's beautiful here ❤️

[@jeanacezetino402]

❤I am so so proud of what you have done and made of Yourself. And though you were not raised in Cahokia, IL. Your parents both were. And your mother and I were just two streets apart. We all had to be in when the street lights came on. You could hear one parent whistle for their kid to get home. So you were rooted from Cahokia, when it was good. We're all proud of you Lexi. I'm glad you also made the namesake Lexi, famous. And it was never a plan but , as two neighborhood friends, your mom and me both named our daughter Lexi. There's more irony. My daughter had a scholarship to college also, but ended up in Nashville Tennessee also, bartending 😮❤

[@ellerythe8th]

I love that fans now vote ppl in not record money hungry, manipulative executives. Well, and Tim McGraw. 🧡🧡🧡

[@jenniferdavis146]

Love your music Alexandra Kay

[@Robert-iz7sd]

Very proud of you

[@Hailanna]

Another amazing artist.

[@djjoep100]

Hi AK ❤️

[@Rick123691]

Damn , I’d love her to have my next child ♥️

[@tinablack3094]

It's not fair that concert tickets are Hundreds of dollars. Alexandra's coming with Jellie Roll to Sacramento California. And I can't afford to go... What ever happened to $30 seats ( real good seats) I just found out their going to be at Golden 1, Sept 4 .... Tickets prices are CRAZY I mean out of this World. I don't know what to do about it. Forget about it. I have to go do radiation in a few hours. 4 more to go including today. Tina
