Lainey Wilson accepted the Record Breaker Award presented by Lone River Ranch Water at Billboard’s Country Power Players 2024.
Lainey Wilson:
First of all, I just want to say thank you so much, Billboard, for having me here today. This is a big deal. A really big deal. It is an absolute honor to be just surrounded by people in country music in this room. I look around and I see so many people who have supported me from the beginning. And so many people who I get to call and get advice from and people who lead me and guide me. And this is a wild ride. So you definitely have to have those kinds of people in your life. Thank you, Kelsea. She’s over there running her mouth. But thank you so much for presenting me with this award. She is such a trailblazer and I’m so thankful that she has, what she has done for women and country music. It’s an honor to know her as an artist, but also as a friend, even though like she mentioned, the day after the Grammys, the Internet thought we hated each other. But what the Internet does not see is that she actually showed up to my Grammy party to celebrate me and to celebrate my win. And that’s the kind of person that she is. And that’s the kind of people that I like to surround myself with. So thank you so much for being here. Being named Record Breaker, that’s something that I would have dreamed about a few years ago.
