Lainey Wilson’s New Album Out Today

Lainey Wilson’s new album “Whirlwind” is out today, Friday, August 23.

To celebrate, here are some facts you might not have known about Lainey.

1. When she was 9 years old, her mom bought her a pair of blue, leopard print bell bottoms. She has joked that since then, quote, “I don’t think anyone’s ever seen my ankles.”

2. When she was a Hannah Montana impersonator, she would make around $400 bucks a gig. Sometimes they’d even let her sing original songs, too.

3. Lainey lived in a camper van when she was first trying to make it in Nashville. She said when a big storm would come in, she thought she was going to get blown away.

4. Luke Combs would actually visit Lainey in that trailer. They wrote Luke’s song “Sheriff You Want To” there with Lainey on backup vocals.

5. Lainey has a “no-tongue” rule for kissing on-screen. This one isn’t a fact, just a conspiracy. At the 2023 ACM Awards, she won an award, and she awkwardly hugged her boyfriend Devlin “Duck” Hodges. It was their first time appearing together, so she joked that if she won, maybe they should shake hands instead.
