Lainey Wilson’s journey to the Grand Ole Opry will be documented in the upcoming special Lainey Wilson: Bell Bottom Country.
The 32-year-old country singer was featured in a new promotional clip from the project, which was released on Tuesday, in which she was seen while preparing for her show at the historic venue, which took place this past February.
The video begins with the performer speaking about how she began feeling pre-show jitters upon entering the concert hall.
‘The amount of people that have come through here, the amount of people who have stood on the stage, who have been in these green rooms. I’m nervous right now,’ she said.
Wilson then admits that her younger self would have likely been overcome by the emotion of the moment.

‘I don’t think I ever come to the Opry and play and not have those butterflies. Nine-year-old Lainey would be freaking out right now,’ she said.
The hitmaker then stated that the prospect of playing at the Grand Ole Opry ‘kind of makes me emotional. Y’all are going to see me cry again.’
The trailer ends after Wilson receives a few last-second notes from a stagehand and prepares to perform for her fans.
Lainey Wilson: Bell Bottom Country was developed by ABC News Studios’ production unit, which was led by broadcaster Robin Roberts.
The television personality issued a statement via People to show her enthusiasm about the upcoming project.
‘I look forward to telling stories about talented women who are strong and authentic. Lainey is definitely one of those women, and I can’t wait to share her uplifting story with audiences around the world,’ Roberts said.
Wilson went on to issue a statement of her own to speak about how she was excited about the prospect of sharing her performance with the world.
‘It’s such an honor to be a part of this project…I can’t wait for everyone to watch,’ she said.

The special is set to make its debut just a few days before the singer is officially inducted into the Grand Ole Opry.
The invitation to join the organization was extended to Wilson by Reba McEntire during The Voice’s season 25 finale, which aired earlier this month.
McEntire told the singer that she ‘couldn’t be more proud to be the one that helps you continue to bridge the gap between our generations,’ while asking her to join the Grand Ole Opry.
