Ella Langley gave her fans an inside look at her time at the Academy of Country Music Awards.
In an Instagram reel shared on Wednesday, the 27-year-old country music superstar let fans in on how she spent her day at the ACM Awards, including clips of her arriving to the venue, getting her hair and makeup done and getting carried out to the car when the night was over.
“Welcome to today,” she says at the start of the video. She can be heard telling the camera later in the video that “this job is not something that you can kind of half a–. You just have to full force. Don’t be afraid of embarrassing yourself.”
The video also showed her entourage’s reaction to her award win and watching her accept the award on a TV backstage. While celebrating, her friends can be heard yelling at the TV for her to cry and “get vulnerable.”

“Everyone told me that song was not going to work. They were all like, ‘What?’” she said on an episode of “This Past Weekend with Theo Von” in April about the hit 2024 song. “After we cut it, [the label] was like, ‘We really think you need to go back in and sing these verses.’ I was like, ‘I’m not singing it.’ And they were like, ‘You need to sing it.’”

She went on to say that she “fought ’em really hard on it” and they told her it would “be the worst-performing song on the record.” It went on to be her first song to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 and won many awards at the CMA and ACM Awards.
Her song, “Choosin’ Texas” gained her even more mainstream popularity, spending 10 weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 list, making her the first female country singer to top the Hot 100, Hot Country Songs, and Country Airplay charts at the same time.
