Lainey Wilson: “I Felt Like A Complete Outsider Moving To Nashville To Chase My Dreams” | Guy Raz

[@LaineyWilson]

Thank ya for having me on!

[@imahotmess872]

TY for all you do for us Fast Lainer fans! ❤

[@krystalcruise7606]

The story of Jerry and your grandpa is incredible! Life is full circle, take care of your people. You have started a new era of country music and I'm here for it! 80's-90's country is my jam, but I listen to you every day! Never change. Sending love and support from Memphis!

[@guy_raz]

Of course! We loved chatting with you

[@gundersenma1964]

I love hearing the stories, the struggles and persistence. I love your stories of grace, of gifts and callings. You really reach down into the inside of me and have the capacity to express things with your songs that I have inside of me that I don't have the ability to express myself. That is a GIFT. And I knew you were beautiful BEFORE I knew what you looked like.

[@Rio-f8j]

I Fell in Love With Country Music because of @LaineyWilson I don't even Listen to Any other Music Anymore

[@chelseabehling738]

What a fabulous woman, raised by good, hardworking people. Love her hair, love her accent, love her voice, love her back story! You are amazing, Lainey!

[@judysmith5231]

Just saw your concert in York Pennsylvania in July. Hearing your story hear is why you were so amazing. Glad I got to go because I'm 76 and don't know if I will ever see another show. You are great.

[@chrisdemske1750]

Love EVERYTHING about her.

[@grantpicklesimer2995]

For her to go from growing up in a town of 200 people to living in her camper, trying to get people to listen to her songs and having the door slammed in her face.....To now being the reigning Entertainer Of The Year......That's pretty incredible right there. That's an act of God and personal perseverance wrapped up into one.

[@teresafaulkner4990]

She's amazing

[@beckys4940]

I think you are a beautiful woman . Inside and out. Keep the awesome work up.

[@CHOSENCHILDOFGOD_1]

Amen TO this!! 💯

[@nomiharper]

I really like this woman! Lainey somehow reminds me of Dolly Parton and her work ethic, perseverance, voice, character, honesty, integrity. Truly admire you, Lainey. You’re the real deal.

[@JosephSalinas-r4r]

She does look/act like a hard worker...wishing for the best for her!

[@Denise-oz3sq]

There are only a handful of country music stars like Lainey Wilson that have remained true to their roots, and stayed humble. Love her!

[@ardyrides834]

Lainey is the real deal.

[@gailgarrett929]

Just stay humble love ❤

[@brynnwalk4390]

Just discovered this by looking up more interviews of Lainey and I have to say it's so refreshing to see an interviewer who doesn't cut off their guests constantly and just lets them tell their stories. Seems like most people these days try to make it all about them, and not the guest they have on their show.

[@janicemcgatlin4840]

I agree. He's a great interviewer! Love Lainey's story. She's an inspiration for believing in yourself, working hard and not giving up!❤

[@MamawJohnsonBkj]

I so agree! This is my first time hearing of him and he respected her.

[@DavidDeal-n4r]

Beautiful woman inside and out!!! She is the girl next door star... Humble and real...God Bless You Lainey!!! We love you!

[@williamphillips1852]

Lainey! Please do not let Nashville bullshit change you! We love you because of who you are and what you sing. I know you’ve already experienced what Nashville will try and change. First ,your looks and then your style to fit their mold. Stay true to yourself!!

[@chrissyluna8183]

She's so Beautiful inside and out. My 14 yr old daughter sings Lainey's song" Heart lie a Truck" full volum in our car. I love it.❤It's one of our favorites with "Things a Man outta know" . And " Wait in the Truck" Blessings to her throughout her career ❤

[@robertgriffin7569]

[@jimwest6571]

I've worked in and programmed country radio stations for 50 years now. This girl is a STAR. I so admire her tenacity and her realness. Her down to earth attitude. I worked for Buck Owens in country radio for a few years. He once told me. "The harder I worked, the luckier I got." The same can apply to Lainey. I will continue to root her on. I have become a BIG FAN!

[@LaurieGarner-e5l]

I have live in a travel trailer myself and it is not easy but you did the best thing you could do but lm so proud of you because I know it's not easy but lm so happy you have made it now and you don't have to count change anymore god bless you and keep up the great music

[@jayalderson]

This is what I love about Lainey.... She says it like it really is, You can see her love for the music and being part of peoples lives through her songs. The way it is supposed to be.

[@jennifermiller7813]

Laney is so sweet and I hope she stays that way. So many don't and so many do. I think sometimes it is like she said her family and home keeps her humble.

[@integratedmindacademy]

I am sitting here in Bulgaria (Europe) listening to this interview- because I came across her music - I love country and her songs are empowering and fueling and real! Now it makes sense where that talent comes from - she was meant to sing and her music reach people worldwide! Thank you for the interview- what an inspiring beautiful woman and motivating life- story! ❤

[@moneybagsknottbob1784]

I'm SO glad that you're a badass girl, who never gave up!!! What an inspiration! ❤ Thanks

[@makeitcount179]

From outta the corn fields of Baskin LA...just Killin it in Nashville. The band. So so important to provide a comfort, a context...from which Lainey can feel the safety to just blossom. For Lainey to express the creativity and move around, Ax-ccen-ting DIF-ferr-ent parts of a song with EM-ph-a-tic clarity...dressing and acting the way she does. Lainey bein Lainey...that's Country music...with a flair.😊
