Not even extreme weather can keep Lainey Wilson from putting on a stellar show for her fans!

The "Heart Like a Truck" singer performed live from the Hudson River in New York during the Macy's 4th of July Fireworks special. However, conditions were less than ideal for her outdoor performance.

Nonetheless Lainey persevered, receiving rave reviews from the packed crowd and countless at-home viewers. "Fighting for my life in a real life whirlwind 🤣," Lainey shared of the experience on TikTok.

Lainey shared a video to TikTok of the performance, with her hair swirling in the wind. In the clip, Lainey doesn't miss a beat as she belts out her new hit "Hang Tight Honey" in a red, fireworks-inspired ensemble.

"Took me a solid 30 mins to detangle my hair after performing for Macy's 4th of July Fireworks special 😂," she captioned the post.

Fans ran to the comments, praising Lainey for her show-stopping performance. They wrote:

  • "You looked awesome and sang beautifully!!"
  • "But you look 🔥🔥🔥 doing it ma’am!"
  • "OMG you were amazing but I literally worried about your safety and your hair the entire time!"
  • "Now that’s a performer!!"
  • "Just a bit breezy great job you go girl ❤️"

Lainey performed alongside fellow country artists Tanner Adell and The War and Treaty and Luis Fonsi. Mickey Guyton and Zuri Hall of Access Hollywood hosted the annual Independence Day celebration this year.

As a girl who grew up on a farm in small town Louisiana, we aren't surprised that Lainey won't let a little or a lot wind stop her from giving fans her all. Though it did stop her from wearing her matching red cowboy hat on stage. Hats off to Lainey for another incredible show!
