Lainey Wilson is becoming a household name in her own right, but her parents are still learning to adjust to having Lainey's celebrity friends around. She recently told Taste of Country, “My daddy, he'll just take a little picture just to show his buddies back home and I'm like, 'Can you please not do that? That's my friend now.'”
One such occasion was when Miranda Lambert invited Lainey and her family to a party at her Nashville restaurant, Casa Rosa, after the CMA Awards. Lainey said, “He just like walked up straight to her and hugged her by the neck and is like, 'Can you get our picture?' And I'm like, 'Can you be cool?'”
Lainey's parents are still over the moon about their daughter's first ACM Award wins for Song of the Year for “Things A Man Oughta Know” and New Female Artist of the Year.
