“I actually watched her perform at CMA Fest on the Riverfront stage… I was 14, and I remember just thinking, man, this girl’s future is bright,” Wilson recalled to PEOPLE
Lainey Wilson had a full circle moment with Taylor Swift.
The “Heart Like a Truck” singer, 32, told PEOPLE at the Twisters film premiere in Los Angeles on Thursday, July 11 that it was surreal to find out that Swift had been a fan of hers when she herself had been a fan of the “Anti-hero” singer, 34, “for a long time.”
“I actually watched her perform at CMA Fest on the Riverfront stage when she was probably 15. I was 14, and I remember just thinking, man, this girl’s future is bright,” Wilson shared. “And there was hardly anybody in the crowd except for me and my family.”
“And I got to tell her that,” Wilson continued. “And she was like, ‘There were, like, 16 people there.’ And I said, ‘Well, we were four of them.’ ”
