There is a music career in this little girl’s future.
Few things bring me more joy than watching a fan get on stage with an artist they admire. We’ve said it before and will keep saying it, but no one goes out of their way more to make their fans feel special than Lainey Wilson. From taking her time to read signs in the crowd to inviting young girls on stage with her, she always goes the extra mile to make her fanbase feel extra special.
And on occasions like this, when Wilson shared the microphone with one of her young fans, even she can be left speechless. Wilson invited a fan on stage to sing with her during a recent show in Omaha, Nebraska. From the crowd, she spotted a sign from a young fan asking if she could sing the chorus of “Things A Man Oughta Know” with her.
“We are gonna do a little chorus of ‘Thing A Man Oughta Know.’ She’s holding up a sign that says, ‘Can I sing ‘Things A Man Oughta Know’ with you.’ Come on, sister, this outfit is awesome…
I have a feeling she’s about to steal the show.”
Wilson asks the girl what her name is, to which she replies, “Charlie.” Wilson was not kidding when she said she felt Charlie would steal to show because that is precisely what she did.
When Wilson hands the microphone to the girl, she confidently belts out the chorus with a voice well beyond her years. Wilson, at first, is mouthing the words with her, but Charlie does not need Wilson’s guidance as she already memorized the words.
“How to know when it’s loveHow to stay when it’s toughHow to know you’re messin’ up a good thingAnd how to fix it ‘fore it’s too lateAnd yeah, I know a boyWho gave up and got it wrongIf you really love a woman, you don’t let her goYeah, I know a few things a man oughta know…”
Wilson was left jaw-dropped by the powerful delivery of this young girl and gave her a massive hug at the end of the chorus. Not only was it impressive for the young fan to get on stage and sing in front of a crowd that large, but the confidence she had during her time sharing a microphone with Wilson shows that this girl might be destined to be a star. Charlie showed no nerves being on that stage.
Given that Lainey Wilson is a huge role model for young country fans, and even more so for those who hope to make a career out of singing one day, allowing her fans moments like this gives them the confidence to keep chasing their crazy dreams. Not everyone can say they’ve sung on stage with their favorite artist, but Lainey Wilson makes that wish come true for many of her fans.
Check out Charlie’s incredible performance.
