The nerves will come and getcha. I feel overwhelmed, but in a really good way. This is literally all I’ve ever wanted to do. It’s been incredible seeing how fast my life and my reality can change with a song. Overall, I feel very mentally prepared for the performance, and I just know Sunday is going to be a night to remember.

I try not to talk too much. I do a whole vocal warm-up and then I usually have a little heart-to-heart with myself. I look myself in the mirror and say, “You got this, you are good!” Basically, my own little pep talk.

Tate McRae. Her entire album is stunning and makes me feel like the baddest b*tch alive.

Beyoncé is an icon, and I think her fearlessness jumping into a really difficult genre to be accepted in is really admirable. I love her use of traditional country elements like the banjo and fiddle throughout the album.

I get my glam done, my hair and makeup, do my voice warm-ups, do some stretches, and make sure my body is ready. Typically, that’s when the nerves usually kick in so I trick myself mentally into not freaking out.

This is bad because I somehow always find a way to stay up until 3 a.m.

I really wanted to do something that was going to make people turn their heads on the carpet. When my stylist Ali and I were talking about ideas, she showed me a picture of a floor-length cheetah dress. It’s a very classic look, and it’s giving a mob-boss wife.

For my stage outfit, I’m wearing something that I feel like someone would actually wear to a honky-tonk on a Friday night, alongside some bedazzled camo cowboy boots that I couldn’t be more excited about. I wanted to keep it feeling really real.

The most iconic performance that comes to mind was Kelsea Ballerini’s “If You Go Down (I’m Going Down Too)” last year. Her entire performance was really fearless, especially given country’s political climate. She was standing up for what really matters, and it was just so admirable. I adore her in every way.
