Lainey Wilson received a letter of praise from fellow musician Jon Bon Jovi. The country music star and 'Yellowstone' actress reacted to the moment in a new interview.
Lainey Wilson admitted receiving a letter from Jon Bon Jovi has been one of the 'coolest moments' of her career. Bon Jovi recently praised Wilson during an interview with Jelly Roll for Interview magazine. The rock star even gave the 32-year-old country music star his phone number in a letter. 'That's pretty cool!' Wilson told 'Entertainment Tonight' at CMA Fest. 'And he did write me a little letter! And he put his phone number on there.
My goodness! I mean, he has lifted me up and encouraged me, and that's one that you write home about, for sure,' the 'Heart Like A Truck' singer shared. Bon Jovi first praised Wilson after Jelly Roll mentioned the two were 'label mates.' 'Which, by the way, is she the greatest thing ever?' Bon Jovi asked. 'Ever,' Jelly Roll responded. 'Voice, work ethic, human, checks every box.
Wilson began performing music at the age of 9. Her first gig was the grand opening of a convenience store in her small Louisiana hometown. Wilson eventually moved to Nashville, Tennessee, and played at bars around town until her music landed on the 'Yellowstone' soundtrack. Wilson landed six nominations at the CMA Awards in 2022, the first time she was on the ballot. The musician released 'Bell Bottom Country' the same year, which solidified her status in the industry.
Wilson revealed advice she was given by Keith Urban, who she collaborated with on 'Go Home W U,' ahead of their performance together at CMA Fest. 'Keith has given me some of the best advice,' Wilson explained to 'Entertainment Tonight.' 'It was this one day, I was so tired, I had just come off the road or something, and I ran into him on music row and he said, 'Remember Lainey, no whining on the yacht.'' 'I wrote that one down,' she revealed.
