It was a big night full of fun, music, and surprise for Kelsea Ballerini. Kelsea was singing with Little Big Town in Nashville, Tennessee when all of a sudden they switched the words up on her and gave her an invitation to join the Grand Ole Opry. The change took place during the song “Girl Crush.” You can see how it went down and watch as Little Big Town serenaded Kelsea Ballerini in the video below.
