00:00 We're here with Lainey Wilson, looking beautiful, very like Cheetah Girl, Cheetahlicious.
00:05 That's what I said earlier, I was like bringing it back, my childhood right here.
00:09 And you're fresh off your first Grammy, how does it feel to get that recognition you so deserve?
00:14 I'm still trying to wrap my head around it to be honest, I don't know if you ever really wrap your head around things like that.
00:20 It was so awesome, just the week in general, I got to go to so many events and meet people from different walks of life and genres
00:28 and I felt supported, I felt respected, I left that week feeling like we're really doing something.
00:35 As you should, and of course Beyonce is seemingly entering the country world right now, how do you feel about that?
00:42 I love it, I love it, I'm like the truth is country music is about storytelling and Beyonce knows how to tell a story.
00:49 So I think it's awesome, I think it's awesome for the country music genre, everybody wants to feel at home
00:56 and country music makes you feel at home, so Beyonce, come on home girl.
01:00 I love that, and lastly I heard you had a hilarious interaction with the people's icon Adam Sandler last week, so what happened there?
01:08 Oh my gosh, he tried to get in our car, we were leaving a record release party and he thought it was his vehicle
01:17 so he started trying to get in ours and I was thinking about letting him.
01:20 I mean yeah, come on in.
01:22 I was like, Adam, you can get in the back.
01:24 I love it, well thank you so much lady, it's always so good catching up with you.
