00:13 They've been calling me Rainy Lainey. We're bringing it.

00:16 You really do and I need you to stop. I know, I'm like what's going on? It's the craziest thing. I didn't even think it rained here.

00:22 But the last ten times I've been here it's rained. I know, it's a new thing I think.

00:25 We're celebrating Women in Music tonight. How special is it to be here? You're presenting. Who are you presenting to?

00:31 New Jeans, which is just cool. It's cool to be in the same room just with women who are from all different walks of life.

00:48 Who are you going to fangirl out over tonight?

00:49 It might be them. It might be. Or Carol G. I'm excited to see her. The list goes on.

00:56 Speaking of fangirling, you were just on the Kelly Clarkson show. She's fangirling over you. How did that make you feel?

01:03 I know you're a fan. What was that like?

01:05 In the beginning I was like holy moly. I was like Kelly Clarkson is a fan of me.

01:10 I think she probably makes everybody feel this way. But I feel like I have known her my whole life.

01:17 She made me feel so welcome. I felt like she was my soul sister. I'm not going to lie.

01:23 I felt like I knew you from a different life. I think she just makes people feel that way.

01:29 She does. You can see it through the screen. Talk to me about your new tour.

01:34 Your tour is happening. I'm obsessed with the name. So good. What can you tease for us?

01:39 Are there going to be any special guests? What's going on?

01:41 The country is cool again. It's kicking off in May. We're actually going over to Australia and Europe this month and the next month.

01:49 A little bit of May too. The official country is cool again tour starts in May.

01:58 We're kind of lining it up right now. We've got a lot of fun things and it works.

02:03 It's cool to be able to play the size venues that we're going to be playing.

02:07 And really just be able to take our time and create that show that we've been wanting to do for a long time.

02:13 When you're in an opening act, you've got 30-45 minutes and you better do your thing and get down.

02:18 Are these going to be the biggest stadiums or whatever you'll be playing ever?

02:25 Headlining for sure. I did a Luke Coleman Stadium tour last year.
